My partner and I stayed here for 10 days and only needed one bedroom but there was not a lot of availability with a front-line sea view when we booked and this was well priced compared to others.
This review is quite detailed but hopefully gives you an idea of what to expect.
Communications – excellent. We needed to shorten our stay by a few days after booking as our plans changed and this was done very easily with the hosts. They gave me all the necessary details a few days before. I asked about early check-in on the off chance as I was already in Puerto Pollenca with my mother and sisters and we had to check out of our previous apartment at 10.00 am. The hosts kindly allowed me to check in early as there was no-one staying the night before, which I really appreciated. When I arrived there were a couple of issues with the apartment which I emailed them on. One of these was the lack of a kettle and one of the owners brought a new one around the next day. I also requested late check out which was also agreed and much appreciated.
Bedrooms – we used the front bedroom which looks out over the sea. One mattress was comfy but very squeaky and the other one uncomfortable, so we switched one of the mattresses with one of the other rooms after the first night. Lots of storage in the bedroom, very light and bright and nicely decorated.
Lounge/diner - very nice, with the incredible view of course. Comfortable sofas. We didn’t use the TV. Air conditioning works well.
Bathroom (we only used one apart from a couple of times) – it was fine, it had a new sink unit in with a hairdryer. Lots of storage. Plenty of hot water. There are some basic hotel toiletries which we were glad of as I had forgotten the shower gel from my shopping run.
Kitchen – a bit dated but perfectly adequate. Oven and fridge were clean. There was a dishwasher (looked brand new) which I was really pleased with as often crockery in rental places are clearly (badly) hand washed. We didn’t use the microwave. Both a cafetiere and a Nespresso machine, it was just the kettle that was missing but as above, the owner kindly supplied one. Only slight issue was that there was only one electrical socket by the microwave and it meant you had to move the kettle / Nespresso machine around the tops to use them.
There is an indoor patio which is really useful as the washing machine is out there as well as lots of space to dry clothes.
Balcony – the most amazing view. It is a above a pizzeria and we spent a lot of time people watching. It is the best view ever. There was an awning which I fully appreciated as our apartment the week before had been a penthouse with no awning and practically no shade apart from an umbrella the size of a matchbox. Part of the balcony still gets sun so you can still sunbathe. Clean and modern furniture. I was worried that the road in front would be very busy but I think that there is restricted vehicle access and there is very little traffic
There are also a couple of beach umbrellas in the hall cupboard. And a hoover which you don’t always find in holiday rentals. Wifi fast and reliable.
Location – we usually stay along the Pine Walk and although this is only a few hundred metres away, I didn’t think I would like the location as much but was very wrong, I actually prefer it. A bit buzzier, the restaurants are open later. Easy to walk to everything, including the larger supermarket Hiper centro (5-10 minutes – much better choice and prices than the numerous small ones around). The apartment is right in front of the port/beach, so you can watch the day trip boats come in and out from the balcony. The Tourist Info and boat booking kiosks are a couple of minutes walk as is the embarkation for the boats.
All in all, delighted with this apartment and I would definitely book again. Thank you so much to the hosts for an amazing stay.
