La Selva does have spectacular views and is very quiet but we feel the website is misleading as this should say that apartment ST02 is one of 7 apartments. It does say it has multiple rentals but only 2 apartments come on the website so we read this as being just 2 apartments plus owners living on site. The photos on the web page only show the larger apartments which we feel are misleading when the small one ST02 is not illustrated at all
The drive in and out of La Selva is very steep with 7 hairpin bends (in fact my wife had to get out and direct me on many) and it should state that a small/medium car is required (we had a Mercedes E Class estate). We were told by Enrico to enter La Selva by the top road and descend down to it, and to leave by the bottom road, so to use the car to go to the beach would mean a long round trip of 5.3km km.
The pool is lovely but is down three terraces using very steep steps some of which are very rough and uneven and is not mentioned on the description. The sea is a 10 minute walk down the steep drive or via steps but is very hard going back up (not a few minutes as described). We also expected to have 2 sun loungers per apartment, not having to share with the neighbours. The sun loungers were also very tatty.
In the apartment we had no wine glasses, no bedside tables. No information pack to say where nearest supermarket, bread shop is etc. which would have been useful. I know Enrico is on site but it is still useful to read it yourself. Apartment ST02 only has 1 door and 1 window so there is no through draft so it is terribly hot. There is a fan in the bedroom but all this does is to circulate hot air, so an air conditioning would be much better.
We make these comments to help people decide if this apartment is for them. All reviews are 5 stars which is one of the reasons we choose La Selva but felt disappointed when we got there for all the above reasons.
