Well worth the money! Christina is a SUPER host! THIS IS HOW AN AIRBnB SHOULD be run! Most AirBnB’s you go to these days aren’t stocked very well and just give you the absolute bare minimum. Like, 1 roll of toilet paper. A washing machine, but no detergent. Only 4 cups plates, bowls and glasses. A dishwasher, but not soap to run it. Sometimes no sponges to wash dishes….you get the idea.
BUT, not this place! Christina has literally thought of everything you could need. Washer, dryer, scissors, all the soaps and detergents you need, sunscreen, lotion, a fully stocked big set of dishes - loads and loads of dishes, multiple cookware and utensils, TUPPERWARE! I cannot say how happy we were to finally have Tupperware to store leftovers when we cooked. Plenty of towels, blankets and pillows, comfy firm beds, great water pressure and showers. I can go on and on, but this place is the most comfortable that you will every stay in because it literally has everything you need.
Check in was a smooth process, Christina was very prompt with her responses, she even went out of her way to find us a babysitter when we asked if she knew anyone. Very sweet woman and actually interested in her guests. She gave loads of advice on the best way to get to her place from the train station. And there is a manual in the house with a lot of eatery and shopping suggestions too.
The aircon in the main room worked soooo great and the fans in every bedroom really kept us cool overnight in the hot August summer. The place is only a few minutes walk to Ondarreta Beach where you can rent chairs and umbrellas, go for a kayak, there’s also a bar and a playground on the beach. A really fantastic location. Well worth the money in my opinion. Also literally just around the corner from the place, maybe 20 steps is a great place to eat called La Cerveceria. We went to old town and did the whole pinxtos but this place was our favourite and we went there at least 6 times in our 10 day stay. It has a beautiful outdoor covered area to sit and eat or just have a glass of wine. Great food as well. It’s right next to a tree covered playground which was great for our daughter and one of the main reasons this was our favourite place to eat. There’s HEAPS of food shopping nearby for eating out and for groceries.
DONT LOOK PAST THIS PLACE!!! If you can afford it it is sooooo worth the money!
