Somos un grupo de 5 que viene de pasar 3 días en el apartamento Gaivota. Buena localización, tranquila, a 5-10 minutos a pie de ferragudo. Habitaciones muy espaciosas, una de ellas con salida al jardín. 2 baños completos (bañera grande/ducha) y cocina grande y perfectamente equipada. Salon amplio con sofa-cama doble (también posibilidad de cama supletoria) y terraza. Muy limpio, luminoso, y bien decorado. Por último, señalar la amabilidad del propietario, quien habla español con soltura. Una estancia de 3 dias perfecta, sin duda muy aconsejable.
