Sissi House - Trilocale con Giardino - Porto Pollo

The apartment is nicely located 400m from the beach and has a large veranda and quite large garden too. Aircon is working good, however there is no aircon or fan in the sleeping rooms. Kitchen is fairly good equipped but note that there is no oven, only microwave. Rooms are spacious and clean. Wifi is excellent. You can park your car right in front of the garden and there is no problem getting a parking lot even if the beach is fully crowded. The beach is close and so is Palau and Porto Pozzo (where it is much cheaper to rent a boat than in Palau). This makes it an excellent base for exploring the region. However there are some drawbacks.

Please note that the apartment is located right at the main road to the beach and there is lots of traffic during the day and sometimes the odd Italian moped kiddo cranking the throttle at night. Also note that Porto Pollo is a Windsurfing spot so you get lots of kids getting drunk and yell during the night. The partymusic on the beach at 2:30am sounds bright and clear up to the rooms, especially during west winds. The sleeping room in the back is quieter but the neighbours terrace is right near the window in an enclosed backyard so with open windows you hear every single breath. When closing the window it gets hot and no, there is no fan. Furthermore, there is a waste disposal in front of the house which gets emptied almost every day early in the morning. So there are trucks idling and glass crashing at 5:30am. All in all sleeping unfortunately was an issue there. Finally, it should be said that the veranda is overlooked by two surveillance cameras of the house owners. I understand that there is an urge for house owners to keep track on whats going on, but in my opinion thats a no-go. So if you like to sit or lie there without being watched I suggest to cover the cameras (like we did).

Very friendly host flexible to our wishes and needs. Excellent communication and preparations.

The bed was a bit to hard for my preferences. But I know this is standard in Italy.
