The location on Airbnb is not accurate and the photos are dated.
Once you find the place, it has been renovated.
You will be staying at the St Joan apartments in Calan’ Blanes.
Keep in mind that:
- reception hours are between 9 AM and 3PM. Nobody on Sundays.
- the phone number in Airbnb is disconnected
- the host does not answer Airbnb messages
Go to the website for the apartments and communicate with Sandra using one of the 2 phone numbers there.
Sandra is lovely, super helpful and homie.
Price wise - Airbnb rips you off, better booking directly through their website if you’d rather save hundreds of dollars.
The place is extremely clean.
The pool area is very nice.
It is quiet at night.
Location, Calan’ Blanes is a run down tourist trap that might look better as time goes by.
Right now it’s a Brit haven that is geared towards them with many places closed for good and others subsisting through what they can. So don’t expect modern, clean, busy bars or facilities in the nearby town.
The apartments are walking distance to 2 small beaches that are mostly empty.
The rooms are spartan. Bed is like sleeping on a slab of concrete and the pillows are not supportive.
All in all, I paid over $1500 USD for 5 nights. This brings it to par with some of the most expensive hotels in the island at over $300 USD a night.
I don’t think it is good value for money.
