Our family of 3 stayed at this property for 1 week (28 May - 04 June).
The hosts are good communicators and welcomed us positively to the property. Will add there was no welcome pack, which we have either become used to or just spoilt in other AirBNB experiences. 1 bottle of water in fridge was what was left for us. Note; there are NO shops close by.
After careful consideration I’m marking this as 2 out of 5 rating.
The property is very tired and very basic. What we didn’t like, the beds are NOT comfortable, simply far too hard, worst beds I’ve slept in. The towels are old and greying and super harsh I.e. not soft. Two and half really Old beach towels for you to use, why bother, either make an effort or don’t bother.
The kitchen is very old, microwave and toaster must be from 1980’s.
Kettle and Coffee machine is OK. The fridge and freezer are good.
The pantry is a misfit collection of plates, cups, glasses and again must be 20-30 years old, the glasses are a milky glass colour due to age.
Hot Water is ok but water pressure is only acceptable in one of the bathroom showers, the other two just dribble.
Master en-suite has a loose mixer tap on sink.
Electric wall socket in master bedroom by bed is loose on the wall and caused me stress with a 5 year old in the property.
The above is honest feedback on our honest findings.
Now let me move onto location of the property as I think this is actually the most Important part of my review.
The location of the property is NOT good or specifically it wasn’t for our needs. I’m not sure if we miss read the advert but the apartment is NOT in Cala Figuera.
The short walk is actually 20-25 minutes and the first section is not an actual path and requires a reasonable degree of mobility and fitness. We are a fit family and didn’t enjoy the first section and certainly in the dark I would say it is very hazardous. The property should leave a couple of torch’s for guests.
The 10 minute drive to Cala Figuera is 10+ through narrow windy roads. Because of the location we got very bored and tired of having to drive to everything. If like us you enjoy the option of walking out the front door for a coffee or drink in close proximity, this is not the property for you.
The younger guests in the apartment below us, which is owned by same owner were equally not impressed that there listing isn’t more honest about location.
You will get equally brilliant views from staying In actual Cala Figuera BUT you won’t get decent shops or a beach. The restaurant are OK but all our better meals were in other areas. Even the hosts recommended restaurant is only OK. We ate in most of the restaurants and found them all similar in quality.
We won’t be back to this apartment or Location as beautiful as it is.
