Apartamento La Cantera

We loved this spotlessly clean, very comfortable, and highly functional apartment. It had a fully equipped kitchen; a washing machine (which we used because we had already been in Spain for almost a week); a fully enclosed shower (which one doesn't always have in Europe) with dispensers for soap, shampoo, and conditioner; and a lovely view of the water, with a table and chairs on the patio. We cooked two meals, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable, and the bedding and towels were nice and clean. A big plus: the blackout shades made it easy to sleep early or late, and the apartment is very quiet.

There were a few minor shortcomings: the microwave controls were barely functional, and the wifi signal was weak; our devices disconnected occasionally. The bedding, towels, and dishes were nice, but few other essentials were provided. There was a supply of toilet paper, but it would have been nice to also have a starter supply of kitchen basics (salt, pepper, olive oil, a roll of paper towels, and a day's worth of coffee pods for the Dolce Gusto machine). Another issue is that there were no table lamps in the living room or reading lamps in the bedroom. With only overhead lights, this isn't the best place to read physical books or magazines.

Owner was helpful with our luggage and gave us a ride to the apartment.
