Super beautiful apartment with insanely great views from every window and very beautiful roof terrace! Breathtaking views! The house is right on the center with beautiful old houses, quaint pubs and curious shops. I especially loved the very friendly artist neighbors. My daughter and I did a workshop with him (ornaments made of colorful broken glass). The beach is right outside the door, but it's also nice to just sit on the roof terrace, balcony or living room. The beds are comfortable and rather soft, there are 2 bathrooms (each with toilet and shower) and a bathtub. The kitchen is huge and has plenty of storage space for supplies. Overall an outstanding stay and the goodbye broke my heart a bit! I wish I'd stayed there!

We had a mixed experience with this stay. Despite being covered by AirCover, we were requested to pay an additional damage waiver. Airbnb assured us that external damage deposits are against policy unless clearly communicated during the booking process through API-connected software, which was not case here and not mentioned in the original listing. I contacted the host ahead of our stay and was told this would be reviewed, but our check-in information was withheld until we paid a non-refundable damage deposit upon arrival. This caused unnecessary stress and delayed our check-in. However, once inside, we found the apartment super clean, beautifully maintained, and even better than the pictures. While we loved the apartment, the check-in issue needs addressing.
