Guest Reviews
- Eli (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michaela (9/5): Overall, the apartment’s ambiance and unique touches make it a lovely place to stay, especially if you’re looking for a - The thoughtful decor and adorable little details throughout the space made it feel more like a home than a typical rental. One of the standout features was the private balcony, adorned with a beautifully painted wall and ambient lighting, creating a perfect spot to unwind. Overall, a delightful experience that truly felt like a home away from home. The apartment lacks an oven and there’s no washing machine. For those needing to work remotely, the apartment isn’t ideally set up for computer work. Fortunately, Santa Maria offers excellent coworking spaces nearby.
- Fanny (9/5): Wonderful cozy stay in Santa Maria - My boyfriend and I spent an amazing time here for more than a week. The apartment was exactly as described-beautifully and tastefully decorated, clean, cozy and with all the essentials provided. There is a ventilator which was more than enough for the temperature in November. The WiFi worked smoothly all throughout our stay, as well as hot water, water pressure and electricity. Our favourite part was definitely the outdoor area with a super comfortable sofa and even a hammock.
The surrounding area was pretty quiet during the night as it’s located on the end-side of Santa Maria. It’s a 10-15 min walk from the centre but there was plenty of mini markets and restaurants a few minutes from the apartment.
Our host Agnes was amazingly sweet and available, the communication was clear and smooth.
Overall we were really glad about our choice and would definitely come back again. The kitchenette area could use some lighting as it was quite dark when we cooked.
The deposit is in cash so make sure to bring enough when visiting Sal.
Not a complaint but a suggestion, if the rules permit: a BBQ in the back yard would be an amazing idea. We bought freshly caught fish from the pier and cooking it outdoor would’ve been a much easier than in the pans in a kitchenette.
