Excellent, wish we had booked for longer. One of the best places I’ve ever stayed in.
Pros:

Beautiful and tranquil. Lovely design with interesting garden. The accommodation was quiet and cool. About 1 minute walk to beach. Really lovely host Cristina. They provided drinking water and coffee. Bed was comfortable. Shower good. Very dark at night and no noise.
15 mins walk to centre of town either along beach or sandy track.

Cons:

You could only pay by cash or PayPal ( with 5% added). They didn’t accept cards or iban transfer. There are numerous cash machines in town but all temporarily out of order so make sure you bring enough cash ( when you book Christina does advise this ).

Pros:

Muy linda posada. La ubicación nos gustó mucho. Cerca del mar y del centro. Muy tranquila la zona. Sin ruidos. Muy bien atendidos por Cristina. Hubo algunos problemas con el agua caliente pero los solucionaron. Muy cómodo el cuarto con cocina.

Cons:

Detalles que no tienen que ver con el hotel.... oscura la calle de acceso, hay que llevar linterna, ruido del viento muy fuerte en el techo, pero porque habia mal tiempo.

Toller Aufenthalt bei einer großartigen Gastgeberin
Pros:

Wir haben zwei Nächte im Apartment Alegría verbracht und uns dort sehr wohlgefühlt. Die gesamte Anlage ist wunderschön gestaltet, und das Apartment selbst ist großzügig geschnitten und sehr gemütlich. Das Bett war äußerst bequem und dank der ruhigen Lage haben wir hervorragend geschlafen. Cristina ist eine großartige Gastgeberin – sehr herzlich, sympathisch und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Auf unsere Anfrage hin hat sie uns sofort einen Föhn organisiert, da zunächst keiner im Apartment vorhanden war.

Cons:

Einziger kleiner Verbesserungspunkt ist der Wasserdruck in der Dusche, der etwas stärker sein könnte, was jedoch wirklich Meckern auf hohem Niveau ist.

Pros:

Very peaceful and beautifully located, close to Punta Mosquito , in my opinion, the most beautiful part of the island. Cristina is wonderful, and the garden is warm and welcoming.

Pros:

Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen, die Kommunikation lief durchgehend einwandfrei. Wir hatten oben die Dachterrasse, es war unglaublich schön eingerichtet, sauber und sehr gemütlich. Es ist alles da was man braucht. Die Lage ist super: nicht mittendrin, man hat seine Ruhe und es ist trotzdem alles fußläufig erreichbar. Aber unbedingt die Moskito-Warnung beachten! Uns hat es richtig gut gefallen, wir würden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen :-)

Pros:

The place is very close to the beach and still within a convenient walking distance from the city center. Cristina, who works there, was very kind and helpful.

Cons:

The low score I’m giving is due to poor management, which unfortunately spoiled the overall experience of what is otherwise a beautiful place. This is not Cristina’s responsibility, but rather the result of the owners’ decisions.

The toilet flush did not work for most of our stay. We had to find improvised ways to flush it, such as using a garbage container, which was extremely uncomfortable and a major inconvenience. This is not acceptable given the price we paid.

I understand that plumbing issues can occur on the island, but this should be the property’s responsibility, not the guests’. It is particularly disappointing because I booked this place to celebrate our birthdays, and the situation really ruined what was meant to be a special stay

At check-out, I requested a modest €25 discount out of the total €230 paid to partially compensate for the inconvenience, but the owner refused, showing little concern for customer satisfaction.

Additionally, the property only accepts cash or PayPal payments—no credit cards—which is quite inconvenient on an island where cash is not always easy to withdraw.

Beautiful view in a lovely room
Pros:

Amazing room with a stunning view across the tree tops - watching the birds in the morning was a highlight! Lovely team working there and the facilities in the room were brilliant. Was able to a arrange a tour with Cristina which was great

Cons:

Need to be prepared for mosquitos! The peaceful location does mean you are slightly further away from the centre

Remote spot on the end of town. Spartan but comfortable enough for the price.
Pros:

Great location very close to the ocean. Lovely proprietess

Cons:

Maintenance issues... A huge water jug in the kitchenette did not have the auto dispenser top on it until the day after we arrived, so we had to tip it into our water bottles, which was quite cumbersome and awkward. the toilet chain broke in the middle of the night.... It was, however, fixed the next day. The shower is too hot, but when you turn the hot water off then there's very little cold and certainly not enough pressure to wash shampoo out of your hair if you're a female. The kitchen sink has no hot water and a very thin trickle of cold water. The standing fan cover fell off in the middle of the night and startled us both awake. There is a young puppy on the premises who is friendly enough, but will sit outside your door and bark and bark and bark.

Nice jungle feeling, only minutes from the beach
Pros:

The Villa is really nicely decorated, we really liked the rooms. You can see & feel that someone invested a lot of heart into building it. There is a nice view from the terrace and the beach is about 3-4 mins walking distance. Also the city centre is within 8 mins distance by foot. The beds are comfortable and everything is very clean - we enjoyed our stay very much :) Also the communication with Cristina was very easy and she helped us with many questions.

Cons:

We can really recommend the place. The only thing which was not automatically working was the flush of the toilet as there was some rain on the island - but we could fix it manually and it's also affecting other hotels as it's more an island problem after too much rain.

Buona posizione, personale gentile, 'atmosfera rilassante

Cons:

Non era possibile pagamento con carta, solo contanti o PayPal (prezzo aumentato del 5%).
La struttura è immersa nella natura, quindi purtroppo ci sono un po' di zanzare e formiche che potrebbero entrare nelle camere
