There are good reasons why this property gets rated 5 stars by many who visit here. We lived here for a month in March and it was fabulous. The property has been sympathetically refurbished by the owners - they’ve done a fantastic job. The bed is super comfy, the kitchen area has everything you will need to cook meals - even a rolling pin and pizza cutter which we used to make homemade pizzas, the shower and bathroom is a good size, the tv has loads of channels though we had brought our own firestick which worked perfectly, the outside area is so private with a barbecue area and seating, and best of all there are two bikes available for you to use (we did loads of cycling). Florian and Hannah are brilliant hosts, checking now and then to make sure everything was ok. We had fun exchanging texts in Spanish, German and English. Victoria met us at check-in and provided lots of advice on how to get around Valencia using public transport and places to visit and eat. There’s a book full of information in the house. Khadija came once a week to clean and refresh the linen and towels. We really enjoyed meeting and chatting in Spanish with Khadija. The property is in El Cabanyal which has a rich history itself - it is real Spain, not touristy at all. It’s only 10 mins walk to the beach, 13 mins walk to the local market where you can buy loads of fresh produce and a mere 100m to a fabulous bakers. There’s plenty options for public transport nearby. The buses in Valencia are brilliant and so cheap! (Buy a zuma10 card at the tabac). We were here in March so experienced the Fallas festival and the Semana Santa - lots of processions, fireworks, music and drums - so it was noisy at times when we were there but it didn’t bother us too much, all part and parcel of living in Valencia in March. So if you want to experience real Spain in a fabulous house, book La Casa Azul, you won’t regret it.
