Wonderful!

Our stay was wonderful. Upon arrival we were shown where to park and received assistance with our luggage and a short tour of the apartment. The apartment itself was very clean and perfect for our family. We loved the quiet location with wonderful cafes and restaurant minutes away. We would definitely stay here again for any return trips!

Surprise and Delight

Oh, the vagaries of making a quick booking under pressure, on the mobile app without prescription glasses! My Search was originally San Sebastian - in the Old Town. This certainly ticked the box for Old Town but in Hondarribia. What a delight! Charming property in an historic setting, newly refurbished, and our home from home for a long weekend - with the added bonus of neighbouring France just a short walk and ferry-ride away. Easy bus journey into San Sebastian - just ideal for our needs. Our Host Alvaro was attentive and generous - nothing was too much trouble.

Exceptional accomodation from an experience point of view right in the heart of the old town. The views from the apartment are beautiful and walking around the old town, you feel like you’ve stepped into an epic movie set with warmest, most authentic and friendly people. In the apartment everything was clean, comfortable and wonderfully appointed. Easy access to great dining, tapas and bars both local and into San Sebastian and/or the Basque side of France. I highly recommend Alvaro’s place and Hondarribia as a wonderful location-it exceeded all our expectations. We will be back!

Wonderful time in Hondaribbia

Alvaro's place is in an amazing location. Even without going into the town (which is walkable) , there are several bars and restaurants just a few steps away, including a lovely courtyard in which to have drinks and pintxos. The apartment is well equipped with everything we could have needed. The bed was very comfy. Alvaro was a wonderful communicator. At the beginning of our stay he met us in the carpark and showed us around the property and gave us tips on things to do. He was available for any questions we had throughout our stay. I would definitely recommend this property.

Beautiful flat in a great location

Our stay in Hondarribia was our favorite. The flat is updated, very clean, and comfortable. We loved being right in the middle of this adorable town. Alvaro was also an amazing host and gave us restaurant and attraction recommendations. We really enjoyed taking the bus to San Sebastián for the day (20 minute ride). We already want to return for a second visit.

Superb Apartment!

We stayed here for a week to explore the Basque country. It is a great place witg most sights a reasonable drive away. The apartment was superb and tastefully furnished. We found the whole place a great place to stay and the comfort of the apartment was great. The location is central and plenty to do within walking distance. We hired a car from the airport and there was a free car park 2 minutes away. Alvaro was extremely helpful and made sure we enjoyed our time there. I would thoroughly recommend the apartment!

Great location, and well-appointed space!

We loved the location of this apartment. Within a few blocks there are many restaurants, little grocery stores, parks, and beautiful views of the river dividing Spain from France, and of course, the ocean. The apartment had many wonderful touches, a washing machine, a deck to hang them out to dry, and little convenience items in the kitchen. There were even great travel books available to read up on the area! The owner was most gracious and accommodating and quick to respond with any question we had! He was ready to explain how to get around the area, such as where the bus stop was and how to get over to San Sebastian. We originally wanted to stay in San Sebastian, but found this place simply charming! We would definitely like to stay here again if we come back to the area.

Wonderful spot

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Alvaro’s rental. This lovely flat is located on a beautiful, quiet street. The place was well-appointed, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully stocked with basics (coffee, butter, jam, chocs) to tide us over until we could get to a market. Alvaro checked in regularly to see if we needed anything. He was a gracious, informative host. We couldn’t ask for any better. It made our stay in Hondarribia a total pleasure.

Wonderful apartment in charming neighborhood

Alvaro was very responsive, welcoming and accommodating. He met us near the apartment and took us to the free parking area and brought us and our luggage to the apartment. We used the apartment as a base to explore the local area and San Sebastian. It worked out very well. Alvaro informed us that very few restaurants were open at night, so we planned accordingly and had no problems. The small town of Hondarribia is wonderful for walking and enjoying the distinctive architecture. We really enjoyed the apartment and appreciated the bottle of local cider and chocolates that awaited us. I would definitely stay here again. The only small negative is that in the evenings and in the morning, the noise from the neighboring apartments was fairly significant, but it didn't extend late into the night and we were out the door fairly early in the morning, so it did not disrupt our sleep.

The perfect place to stay in Hondarribia

We came across an article in ‘Traveller’ which led us to choose Hondarribia as our base instead of San Sebastián. We were glad we made this choice for a number of reasons, and one of them was Alvaro’s apartment. In short, there was not one thing that we did not like about the apartment. It was clean, comfortable and attractively decorated. We have also come to know that your apartment choice is a good one when it is stocked with everything you need to make your stay comfortable and then there are a few thoughtful things added. In this case a bowl of chocolates, a bottle of cider and a Nespresso machine with a generous supply of pods - this is not a limited list and it is the kind of thing that goes beyond what you might hope or expect of your host. The apartment is located in the most attractive street in the Old Town and is in easy walking distance of the area that has most of the pintxos bars and restaurants - although make sure you visit Gastroteka Donantzat which is just around the corner. Parking is free and just outside the gate that leads into the street where the apartment is located. We left our car there for the whole time we were in Hondarribia as we could walk everywhere we wanted to go in the town and it was much easier to catch the bus to San Sebastián. The final word of this review must go to Alvaro who was an exceptional host. He met us at the arranged place promptly, guided us to the carpark, transferred our luggage to his car and gave us an orientation tour of the town. He was always easy to contact and was just so charming and friendly. So stay in Hondarribia and stay in Alvaro’s apartment for a truly wonderful stay.

Quaint perfect location in the walled city.

Our stay in Hondarribia was beautiful. The apartment location is a couple of blocks inside the walled city. Beautifily updated apartment on narrow, quiet street. Short walks to plazas in the old city with plenty of places to eat and see. Apartment was immaculate with all that you need. Two story walk up narrow stairways but Alvaro helped us with our luggage. Brief walk to entrance to walled city and nearby commercial area for market and more restaurants. And close to waterfront area and small quaint downtown area for sightseeing, shopping, and eating. Helped us with directions and finding convenient parking when we first arrived. Happened to hit perfect weather in mid-October, and not too many tourists. Should not miss visiting this beautiful area.
