    Not really problems for me but: No real seating area, just a table with a chair and another chair by the bed. Cooking facilities were a microwave and a couple of hobs. The fridge did seem to make a noise at times. The shower didn't stay hot for very long - you need to be quite quick if washing hair. Bathroom was a tiny bit shabby and the step up with same colour tiles is a bit of a trip hazard. I used a towel as a mat outside the door so this wouldn't happen. I quite like a drawer to put things in. Not sure about the little candles on the bedside tables. Not really necessary and potentially a fire hazard? Loo rolls were in a wardrobe, where you might not think to look. You had to be quite firm with the plugs and sockets. I heard some banging about, seemingly from upstairs. Not much and not too late or early. If you want to get the bus to San Sebastián it's at 08.00 or lunchtime. Probably my fault but I had some trouble unlocking the door. Alex had to send someone to my rescue at one point. I didn't see a toaster. I didn't find coasters. I left a few teabags, "milk" and biscuits for the next person, as I think those are nice to have on arrival. There were a few bits there when I arrived - coffee, salt and sugar, I think - but they're not the things I crave. 😀 Anyone with mobility issues should be aware that the flat is accessed by a flight of steps or a steep slope.

    Owner was very helpful and sent clear instructions for getting in, as well as offering travel tips. Ocean view was great. Roof terrace was lovely, with various seating options and tables. Bed was comfy (2 single mattresses pushed together) with good duvet. Nice restaurant about a minute away and SPAR maybe 10 or 12 mins. Place was clean and in pretty good nick. Couple of homely touches (mirror, pictures). There was a kettle, an iron and mini ironing board, coffee machine, quite large telly and hairdryer. Kitchen had plenty of utensils. There is a full size fridge with freezer. Shower was pretty good. Plenty of towels. Generally very quiet and peaceful. Cleaning staff seemed nice. Foldout dining table and foldaway chairs, which was quite clever. Plenty of wardrobe space.

    One easy chair instead of two. A little thing:: doing the dishes was difficult .

    I didn"t have breakfast, was not possible. The location is good, but the natural swimmingpool is out of order.

    Noisy fridge. The building is older.

    Quiet place, but the bar is a short walk away. Excellent starting point for hiking. The apartment had all the necessary equipment.

    The beach near is a rocky one, we could not swim in it. But not a problem if you have a car, can go to many other beaches in the surrounding.

    Loved the quiet location, away from tourism. Great view to the sea. Good size beds.

    - A very small boiler for hot water. It is an challenge to take a shower to have enough water for 2 people. - There are some very simple things missing in the kitchen: a dishwashing sponge, a flat spatula for a pan. - Tight corridor and kitchen. The area of the apartment is less than stated (35m²). In fact, it's about 20-25 m². - Starting at 8 a.m., there are sounds of vehicles passing right under the window: --- At one day someone parked their car incorrectly, in a narrow stretch of road, on the yellow line. Because of this, the garbage truck cannot pass, and to draw attention to the problem, constantly beeping and accelerating the engine. As a result, the garbage men picked up the car by hand and carried it out of the way. All this went on for about half an hour. --- Another day, a truck from a nearby banana farm got into a similar story. Lots of noise and exhaust fumes. --- Perhaps they should put up more obvious signs prohibiting parking in a narrow stretch of road.

    + Good location in quiet place (at night). It's nice to sleep with the window open and hear the sound of the waves. + Quick responses from the owner. + Nice view on ocean and Tenerife \ Teide. + Clean room, comfortable bed. The bed consists of two single beds, and are not fixed to each other, so it is very easy to move apart from each other. + Good value for money, considering the fact that the apartment has a kitchen. + WiFi works, it's stable. But the speed is not very high, about 10Mbps Download and Upload. + You can park nearby. Be sure to avoid the yellow line (read below).

    Despite the sea and the view, the location is not great. The apartment is at the very bottom of the valley, quite far from the village's centre and transportation links. There is one restaurant next door, but the rest of the village life is quite remote, so are the shops. The ocean at the nearby beach is rough and it was impossible to swim there.

    This is a nicely designed and clean apartment with a great common terrace on the roof with the view of the sea and Tenerife. It has all necessary appliances.

    It felt cramped and awkward - the area is actually about a third less than stated in the listing. OK if you only plan to sleep there. Communal roof terrace could do with a facelift.

    Climbing into a comfy bed to the sound of the sea. Little other noise. Clean. Attentive host. Reasonable restaurant a minute away.

    Awesome ocean view. Small cozy apartment, has a nice shared terrace above. There is a narrow street along to park your car - make sure garbage truck will pass beside it :)

    The room was adequate. The kitchen and bathroom were a little old — not fresh.

    We could hear the surf all night. The place was clean. Nice big window overlooking a banana plantation and the water. Just up the street is a good little restaurant.

    It is a shame that this lovely village keeps the local beach in such a state of abandonement. Visiting Playa Santa Catalina was disappointing. The area is amazing, but the beach isn't really taken care of. A massive and ugly structure built by the local goverment in the middle of the beach ruins the area. The building has been neglected and the beach is dirty and full of debris. In the apartment, wi-fi did not work at all. Refurbishment and renovation is also needed, as the forniture is old and clunky (kitchen and bathroom above all). Cooker stove also pretty bad, 15 minutes to make a coffee.

    Beautiful panoramic sea view from the room. Hermigua is charming and quiet small village located in beautiful valley, surrounded by banana fields. The apartment is close to various hiking routes, nice bars, supermarket and bus stops.
