Just what was needed

A lovely apartment in a beautiful setting and lovely views. The apartment was a little bit tired in some areas but this did not affect my stay. The hosts were very helpful and easy to contact. A bottle of wine and water on the table when I arrived. Would stay there again.

the best location to stay in El Medano

My parents have been going to this apartment for 3 consecutive years. Each year they stay there between 5 to 6 weeks. The price/quality of the apartment is splendid and the view from the terrace is heaven! You can enjoy the view of the montana roja (red mountain) and the ocean at every time of the day in all its colors and splendour. The apartmentbuilding is very tranquil and is very close (very short walking distance) to everything you might want: supermarkets, restaurants, tapabars, busstop etc. They find it the ideal place to stay in El Medano!

Die Wohnung hat eine tolle Lage, alles ist leicht zu Fuß erreichbar.

Ein Wasserschaden in der Wohnung über uns hat die Urlaubsstimmung etwas getrübt. Dafür trifft unser Vermieter natürlich keine Schuld aber wir mussten 2 Nächte in eine Ersatzwohnung außerhalb der Anlage.

Nice place to stay

Nice apartment with everything you need for spending some nice weeks in El Médano. Excellent view to the harbour wall, the bay and the red mountain. Very good position, near to the beaches and the main squares with plenty of restaurantes.

The apartment was absolutely grotty! and not the same as the pictures showed

The complex was clean and well maintained but our apartment was terrible . It was not clean! stale pasta in cupboards and thick dust on lampshades in bedroom. The sink in the kitchen was chipped and rusty. The pots were chipped and one mug and a chipped cup. No kettle. Fridge would not close properly. Bathroom shower taps full of rust. Old towels with one hand towel . Bedding left for mid week change did not fit properly and unable to change pillowcases again unable to fit. Keys just left with us no instructions anywhere even what to do on our departure No TV or music, very old uncomfortable settee in lounge, think this apartment was not at all like the pictures in the original advert. We feel we have been very much overcharged for such a BAD apartment and we would warn people against staying in it. Only good part was the balcony and views and we spent most of our time with warm clothing in the evenings there as we didn't like to sit in lounge Throughout our stay no one contacted us to see if everything was alright. We like El Madano and would like to stay there again but definitely not in that apartment

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Mar 2020
Hello, I would firstly like to express that everything listed and shown on the Homelidays web page is what is offered by the Apartment owner, nothing outside that listed was offered, thus no misrepresentation has been made, or has been intended. A kettle was not placed because clients (from varying parts of the world) in the past have opted to use other means available to boil water, however had you requested one it would have been placed. All other kitchen utensils are new, as is all the bed linen. Moreover, should you not be satisfied for whatever reason, they and other items would have been replaced. It seems you had problems with how the remote control of the TV worked, together with where to leave the Keys. As indicated through our correspondence prior to your arrival both Maria, contact person who works within the Estrella Del Mar is available within the apartment complex, as am I locally. My direct telephone number with the necessary pre fix code was made available to you. Neither option was used to communicate any misgivings at any time. Had you done so we would have respectfully helped in any way, that being part of the service offered. Our intention is to make your stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible. We do not offer music, or a music system in which to play music. Our experience is that most clients have their own personal collection, and mediums. The apartment is cleaned and serviced. Towels and beddings are indeed changed. However, once again I would like to stress that contact details and persons are at hand to help with any clarifications or misgivings, as are most people’s desire for privacy respected, and indeed, understood. I am sure that you can read and acknowledge the opinions of many visitors (over sixty) who have stayed at the apartment during these last three years. Contrary to your very personal review, all concur that the apartment is in fact comfortable, and clean, as was their satisfaction with the availability of myself and Maria. I trust that this reply will address your misgivings, and place the reality perceived within a better context of what the short letting service entails and offers its clients. Yours sincerely, Alejandro.

Toller Blick, friedliche Anlage

Wir kannten den Ort und die Gegebenheiten dort bereits, die Apartementanlage jedoch nicht. Sie ist gepflegt, ruhig und bietet einen wunderbaren Meerblick. Den ungeheizten Pool (Salzwasser, kein Chlor!) haben wir - brrr! - nur probehalber genutzt und das Meer vorgezogen. Die Wohnung liegt 2.OG im Innenwinkel des U-förmigen Blocks: So hat sie zwar nicht den größten, jedoch einen ausreichend großen und vor allem windgeschützten Balkon (mit Couch, toll!), den wir ganztägig genutzt haben. El Medano ist als Surferparadies ziemlich windig, doch hinter den getönten Scheiben der Balkonbrüstung konnten man dem Treiben auf dem Wasser ungestört zusehen. Platz in Schlaf- und Wohnzimmer sind ausreichend für zwei Erwachsene, im WZ gibt es, wenn nötig, noch eine Klappcouch (nicht ausprobiert). Das Bad ist mit allem Nötigen ausgerüstet und sauber. Manches ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, Abflüsse und Küchenteil (amerikanisch im Wohnzimmer) gehören dazu, deshalb einen Stern weniger. Die Küchenausstattung hätten wir uns etwas kompletter gewünscht: Da wir selbst gern kochen fehlten uns ein paar Utensilien. Aber es ist Urlaub und die tolle Lage macht alles wett. Freundlicher Mailkontakt zum Vermieter, unkomplizierte Schlüsselübergabe bei An- und Abreise. Eine ganz und gar empfehlenswerte Adresse - vielen Dank für das wunderbare Fereinquartier!

Fine and friendly place, well situated in nice little town.

Perhaps El Médano and this apartment aren't the glitziest holiday resorts, but that's about all there is to comment: Nice apartment in well situated building, sea view, pool... and great coffee around the corner for breakfast. Very friendly reception by Maria. El Médano seems to be more alive than your average tourist town, locals enjoy the beach as much as us tourists. Hope to return some day... Lots if sportive opportunities: All sorts of surfing, cycling, hiking...

Zur schönen Aussicht

Winter in Teneriffa! In dieser sonnenverwöhnten Wohnung mit faszinierender Aussicht auf die Bucht von Medano mit ihren Surfern, ist das kalte Europa gefühlt Licht- jahre entfernt. Ruhig gelegen und trotzdem nur ein paar Schritte ins Zentrum von El Medano, lässt diese Wohnung kaum Wünsche offen. Günter I.
