Three Stars due to problem finding it, the 65 killer steps, and its remoteness.
Google Maps could not locate the address given and the instructions provided were worthless. (Afterwards we discovered - on our own - that it would have been better to plug precisely âUrbanizacion Ladera del Marâ into the GPS. âCalle Pasillo Ladera Andaluz No.3â is of no help with GPS (that information is what you need to find the set of step once youâre in the complex) and âCasa Milaâ is simply what the owners named their home. It means nothing to GPS or to the locals.
Since the address given left us confused, we phoned the local contact included with the instructions. However, despite what our hosts had written, this person only speaks Spanish.
Thanks to our translating app, we got help from random local residents and realized we were on the wrong side of town. We needed to be nearer the marina.
We drove into the Ladera Del Mar Apartments but missed the apartment for two reasons: 1st, the instructions said to look for two parking lots. (There are no parking lots. Rather, there is parking on both sides of a narrow road.); 2nd, the apartment was 65 steps up the hill from the road. (There was NO mention of any steps. My wife figured out where the apartment was - no thanks to the directions provided.)
All of this could have been rectified with better instructions, communication, and an English speaking contact. Also, at another of our condo stays we will be meeting someone at a restaurant who will escort us to the location. This should have been provided here and all would have been well.
After a very frustrating nightmare of finding the apartment we were grateful that it was quite lovely, neat and clean.
The view from the terrace is worth every one of the 65 steps. The AC worked perfectly as did the dishwasher. The furnishings are comfortable and had all the essential flatware, dishes and pans.
Just a few more concerns:
1-The clothes washer has instructions taped onto the back of the bathroom door but were in German.
2-There is no clothes dryer.
3-The Television has three remotes with no instructions and when we managed to turn it on, all but two channels were in German.
4-This place is not in town. To go to a restaurant or store or anywhere you need to drive and
5-the parking is not ideal.
