A warm personal welcome with a bottle of wine and a few food items as a gift which makes all the difference when we arrived. The flat is close to Metro transport for town and 10 minutes walking distance from the beach. A busy residential neighbourhood with scattered bars, restaurants and markets and supermarkets. Beach restaurants offer a good range of styles and budgets. We felt safe letting the two 16 year old girls walk home at night from the beach area. The old and the new buildings of the city were fantastic. The La Paca bar opposite is a real gem with friendly staff and generous tapas. The terrace is a real plus, and the fact it retains a wifi signal mean't you could sit and plan trips into town, and keep 2 sixteen year olds happy with social media access in the sunshine!
