Trine is a lovely host. Very approachable, accommodating and warm. Her and her husband are more than happy to do what they can to reduce any stress and make you feel comfortable including carrying luggage up the stairs, offering beach towels, etc. The apartment is exactly how it appears in the pictures. As others have mentioned, the shower is typical European, on the small side; ok for an average size female but awkward for a taller/larger man/woman. The apartment gets afternoon sun exposure so it's not ideal to plan your relaxation time until after the temperature drops...it can get very hot in the riom and onnthe terrace. Depending on your tolerance for lack of air conditioning, the fan provided may not suit your needs. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and found Alaro to be perfectly located for access to many parts of the island (provided you have a car). If you like wine, plan to go to the local winery C&M for tasting and tapas...wonder views and wonderful wine.
