Maria was a great, attentive host who answered any queries quickly, whilst giving us our own space. She was very welcoming and keen to help us enjoy our time in Alaro, giving us recommendations for things to do/beaches/restaurants/bars.

The building was beautiful and apartment looks just like it does in the pictures, if not better - really bright and airy with fantastic views over the mountains. We were initially concerned about no aircon in 30+ degree heat but this was not a problem at all - the apartment was cool and Maria also provided fans in all rooms.

The garden/terrace area is big, with plenty of room to eat outside as well as a pool with lots of sunbeds. Despite being near the main square in the town and sharing the building with a couple of other families, it felt very private and calm.
Alaro is fairly small with a few shops and restaurants, and livens up on a Saturday for the market. We'd recommend hiring a car if you're staying more than 3 days to explore the island - there are some great beaches and beautiful towns just a short drive away.

Overall - a wonderful stay! The flat was perfect and Alaro was a great base to relax and explore the island over the week. Thank you Maria!
