Florentina and Arturo's apartment on the Mediterranean Sea was a true pleasure. We travelled as 2 adults and 2 teens. We found the space to be more than adequate for our use! Our favourite parts of the apartment:
#1: The balcony in front of the kitchen by the Sea. What a beauty. We spent our breakfasts and most dinners here as we opted to eat in for those. Lunches were at the beach and brought our own sandwiches (Carrerfour grocery store is about a 15 minute walk from the apartment, brought our large luggage backpacks and filled with groceries to bring them back). Bring a cloth insulated cooler for beach. The balcony is as beautiful as the photos and more! And the pass through kitchen window made passing food, etc to the balcony a novelty for us. Fully functional appliances and good kitchen layout made it all easy to use. For coffee lovers, there isn't a moka espresso maker nor a percolator, but there is a nespresso maker (Carrefour sells nespresso cups). I used ground coffee and made my own satchels of coffee with the paper filters that were already in the kitchen, and boiled this in a pot of water, similar to a bodum, and it worked well. There is also a kettle to boil water for tea. #2. The private large window overlooking the Sea in the shower. Opening the window during showers with its infinite Sea view, sound of crashing waves on the cliffs below, and full privacy, makes one's shower after an afternoon at the beach very relaxing. #3 The rooftop balcony. Best in the evenings as it is much breezier up there, great for late evening cocktails, and star-gazing. So lovely. #4 Location close to little cove and then Aiguadolc Beach. We actually never used the further Balmins and San Sebastián Beaches as we felt no need to venture further. The 2 little coves close by are more private, and Aiguadolc Beach is lovely with the marina right next to it. Other points:-There is a lovely pool within the property which kids seemed to love. -The building is quite interesting architecturally and although there are lots of units, it affords each unit a sense of privacy and great views.-Inclines walking to beach and grocery store which we liked for exercise.-The trains were no issue for us. We used the air conditioner each day couldn't really hear them and never woke us up.-Air conditioner is in main family room and works very well. In the heat wave could have used a small oscillating fan to pull cool air into bedrooms. Overall we had a great time thx. Recommended
