My husband and I have enjoyed 60+ Airbnb stays over the past 12 years and this apartment outshines them all. The harbor view from the very large terrace is fabulous!
Inside the spacious apartment is equally impressive…every appliance and cooking need is available as well as instructions for their use in a binder as well as in the Hoomvip app…which is also used for keyless entry into the building and apartment. The extra-large rain shower is a real treat. Beds are comfortable with plenty of pillows and blankets. Elevator up to the 5th floor, then steps to the penthouse.
Netflix & Amazon Prime on the TV.
Location is easily within walking distance of wonderful restaurants (Hoberena Jatetxea was our favorite), pubs, shopping, churches, pharmacy, supermarkets, fruit/vegetable shops, coffee shops, train (our favorite), metro, bus station, swimming pool, car park (which was also on included with the apartment), and historic village of Portugalete.
Also provided is a refillable transportation card for train, metro and bus.
Ana made our 25-year anniversary (and my birthday) celebrations extra special with champagne, pastries, bottled waters, local craft necklaces (for our two granddaughters) and her artistic grandchildren beautifully painted a shell and a stone…also included the dates on the back…these are delightful treasures.
Our stay was 8 nights…we had planned to explore Bilboa 2-3 days and make 2-3 road-trips to local villages…but we enjoyed Santurtzi so much we only spent one day in Bilboa and one road-trip to Getaria and Gaztelugatxe. Other than those two days, our rental car relaxed in the garage car park.
Now we plan another visit to Santurtzi see all the surrounding towns & villages we missed :))
