We've just returned from 7 nights at this accommodation in Mutriku, having taken the car ferry over from Portsmouth, UK.
We are a family of 2 adults, a 3 year old and a 1 year old. The apartment was very spacious for all of us and could sleep 5 adults comfortably. The bedrooms were much bigger than I was expecting from the photographs.
The whole apartment has obviously been modernised and is beautifully light and bright with a seaside theme.
There is a high quality modern kitchen with lots of tableware/utensils etc. There was no electric kettle (that we could find anyway!), there is a Nespresso machine (buy your own pods), but the water from that isn't very hot. When we needed boiling water we used the small saucepan which boiled super quickly on the induction hob.
We took our own tin opener, but other than that there was nothing lacking from the kitchen. It has fan oven, grill, microwave etc. Large fridge/freezer.
The slightly weaker room of the apartment is the bathroom. It is not a full size bath, big enough for an adult to sit in but not lay down. There is a modern shower over the bath, not a separate shower cubicle. But I do have to say the water pressure was very good and the shower was nice and hot. There were plenty of bath towels for the week and 4 rolls of toilet paper. Hair dryer provided as well.
The main bedroom has a king size bed, and all beds obviously had very good quality duvets and sheets. Really comfortable , hotel-style beds - we were quite sad to leave them!
The highlight of the accommodation has to be the view out on to the beach below. A joy to wake up to. Our 3 year old got to understand the tides coming in and out over the course of the day, as the black Flysch rocks come in and out of view.
The setting really is idyllic. Visiting Mutriku in May was very quiet, but that suited us. We had two glorious afternoons of sunshine with the beach completely to ourselves.
I expect the area does get much busier in the summer months.
It is a very steep walk up to the town, so not ideal accommodation if you have any mobility issues.
We never got to meet Racquel, the host, but she was very quick to respond to messages during our stay and really eager to give restaurant recommendations etc.
There is no check-in information as such, we collected the key from the host's relative that lives in the neighbouring flat (Spanish speaking only).
