Ana Altuna kindly received us in her apartment, and although only speaking Spanish, which we don't, she showed us everything we needed, and gave us a bag with tourist information. The apartment is comfortable, clean and fully equiped. It is on the fourth floor (one floor higher is an attic where you can dry your clothes). The exterior of the apartment building is dull and sober, but the inside is newly renovated and from the balcony you also have a view on the hills. Bakio is touristic, with mainly spanish visitors, but there are only a few restaurants and shops. The beach is large and clean and the sea was nice and wild. Bermeo and the Urdaibai estuary are close by and well worth a visit.
