Sunny detached house

Unusual apartment - great decoration and very comfortable. Large and excellent terrace. Friendly and helpful hosts. Look forward to visiting again

We had a perfect stay at Juan’s fantastic apartment in June. Juan is a warm and generous host and his home is beautiful. (He lives downstairs and the entrance to the apartment is totally private.) It has everything you need from a fully-equipped kitchen to a shady terrace with disco balls on the roof! We felt totally at home. It’s less than 10 minutes to the heart of the centre of Murcia. You can walk through nearby park Floridablanca, and you’re at the lovely huge municipal pool where you can swim in the shadow of the cathedral. We were on a walking holiday so we didn’t go far, there was plenty going on in the city to keep us entertained at night, and by day we cooled off in the huge paddling pool on the terrace in the day. Get a train (station is a two-minute walk) to Cartagena. After a day in the city of Cartagena, you can get the bus (five minutes up the road from the station - up from the fountains) to a lovely beach called Cala Cortina. We saw flying flamingoes! We didn’t have a car and managed fine on our trip. There’s a huge supermarket outside the apartment. Murcia is also a very vegan-friendly city, with a handful of restaurants in one square, near the cathedral, serving delicious, inventive vegan meals. The train is easy for trips onward, to Barcelona, for example. The temperatures were up to 40 celcius during a heatwave and Juan’s apartment kept us totally cool. Our toddler loved the space. The beds are comfy, the whirlpool bath is a treat. It really is an oasis in the city. Thank you, Juan. We’ll never forget our stay.

Funky, playful, spacious apartment. Great location. Can walk to centre. Juan was incredibly kind and helpful. He even provided dozens of fresh oranges from his trees for us to make juice with. Blackout shutters/shades ensure a good night sleep. Mattress was very comfortable, and plush towels. We would have stayed longer but the apartment was already reserved so we could only book for 3 nights.

Belle maison située près du centre-ville, environnement très pratique. La grande terrasse est un plus indéniable. Quant au propriétaire, c'est une personne charmante et à l'écoute de ses hôtes. Hébergement hautement recommandable !
