All the emails, SMS, WhatsApp messages, and notifications from Booking.com were overwhelming—definitely too much. The mandatory tourist document required before arrival was unnecessarily complicated, even more so than entering the USA. The room was cold, with no heater available. There was also no water provided for the 'free' coffee, and the room wasn't cleaned during our three-day stay.

The place is absolutely wonderful, and there's really not much more to add—everything exceeded our expectations.

Bathroom had a sewer smell on the first day, then it was gone. Boiler is solar-powered, meaning it takes forever for the water to warm up (taps aren't marked, so we had to consult the host to figure out how to get a hot shower). Bathroom is a bit run-down. For several days there were key/lock issues, we couldn't open the front door and had to use workarounds. Beware: tiny ants everywhere.

Location is just unbelievable, right next to the ocean shore. Daily sunset watching, first row seats. Walking distance to several restaurants, easy parking, good enough kitchen. Responsive host (via Whatsapp).

Problem with the key to enter into the property. The owner should urgently invest in a new lock

Terrasse vue is a highlight

Thought the dishwasher was not relevant as there was limited crockery, pots and pans and glassware. A washing machine either private or communal would be more useful.

It was unique. The terrace was particularly good overlooking the sea. The communal sitting area was nice making up for the lack of ‘lounge’ in the apartment.Excellent info and communication with owners.

I was disappointed that the room itself had finally no sea view since it was not possible to open the window nor the louvers. Moreover it means no natural light in the room and less fresh air.

The location is great. The accommodation was well equipped. .Very nice terrace with its view on the ocean and sunset. I would recommend this place.

Small issue. I didn’t see and sun bed mattresses?

The sound of the waves. The location and thought to detail and the peace.

Sink plug in the bathroom didnt work. The fridge door bracket was broken, so you couldn't put bottles in the door as they fell out. The light over the cooker was broken.

Supurb locaton. Comfortable room with kitchen and bathroom. Exceptional patio from which to watch the wild sea crashing on the rocks. Though there are 5 apartments here, there is a lot of communal space and often you have it to yourself.

The location of course. you feel far away from the tourist areas of playa Blanca. such a peaceful place.

location was stunning. the view of the ocean and sunset would be hard to beat, anywhere in the world.

It is an old family sea house renewed, so it is "rural" and might not be fore everybody (e.g. if you want a luxurious place).

We already came here twice and we will come back again. The terrace is in front of the sea the house has all you need in the small village of El Golfo. It is ideal if you want to relax far from the crowd. Nearby there are also good restaurants to have some fresh fish. Driving does not take to long to do to Yaiza, la Geria or Playa blanca. Parking is not a problem, owner is very reactive and nice.

The place is really amazing with a beautiful view on the see and the sunset! There are all the practical accommodations into the room with a really appreciated welcome gifts, free Coffee/Tea/Chocolat and swimming pool! Close to some restaurants in El Golfo, parking free in front of the place!

El Golfo, as many other reviews have remarked, is a truly beautiful area. This property was utterly delightful. Excellent location, charming decor, great outdoor space, and well equipped. would definitely recommend staying here.

The room is not very dark. Early in the morning you might be awaked by the day lights.

Most of all, the location in front of the ocean (you can hear the waves at night) and the terrasse where you can see the best sunset of the island

Bed not comfortable, plus no comfortable chairs to relax in

Loved the location and quietness, terrace was great and the secret plunge pool a real bonus. Beautiful sunsets…

It could do with more tables and chairs outside. Our apartment could probably do with a bit of a refresh in the kitchen and bathroom.

Great location and views.

Took a while to get hot water in the shower & tended to flood. Having to put toilet paper in a bin & not having any replacement bin bags. Drains smelt quite a lot so had to keep window closed & air conditioner didn’t work very well.

The location of the property & the terrace that had a small small that overlooked the sea.
