My wife and I Stayed at this apartment for a week in Mar 2015.
We were met on arrival by Vanessa and Ivan who were very helpful and accommodating hosts.
The apartment was spotlessly clean, cosy, comfortable with nice design touches to make it feel homely.
The patio area and and little garden are beautifully kept and private, with a gate onto a very nice pool area with good views across Puerta de la Cruz.
The apartment complex is well looked after, clean and tidy and was very quiet, situated on a cul-de-sac.
We hired a car and although not essential I would recommend it for this apartment.
You can walk to/from the centre of Puerto de la Cruz, a very pleasant 30 to 40 mins walk along the shore front, there is a bit of a hill up to the apartment ...but its only 5 euros by taxi from the town centre.
The centre of Puerto has plenty of restaurants, cafes, bars and had a lively but not rowdy atmosphere. A couple of restaurants we liked, El Patio, Don Camilo, Hannen Bar (German - good steaks and beer). If you like folk type music we enjoyed an evening at Bar Cafeteria El Arado, amazing harp and spanish guitar playing,
cheap good wine, lovely 'Irish' coffees and mojitos, and the music sounds even better when you've had all three....
There is a Lidl supermarket about 2 mins drive from the apartment which we used to stock up on provisions.
There is no shortage of stuff to do, we visited Loro Parque (its only 10 mins walk from the apartment), did the drive around Mt Teide, visited the town of La Laguna, did the tour down lava tubes (very interesting), all are within easy driving distance.
All in all a great holiday, and the apartment was a great place to stay, both as a place to chill out and laze around and also as a base to do the tourist things.
If we return to Puerto in the future we would certainly try to book this apartment again.
