Casa Bruella is perfectly situated for easy access to the town centre, beaches and restaurants. It has a really great back garden with a good sized pool and bar-b-q area and plenty of parking if needed, however we paid quite a lot to stay there and were very surprised therefore to find stained carpets in the master bedroom, holes in the net curtains and stains on the bedspread and curtains in one of the spare bedrooms. The shower in the master leaked and flooded the bathroom floor and there had clearly been difficulties with all of the joints on the bathroom taps leaking so these had been fixed using bathroom sealant which had turned green and slimy. The toaster didn't work reliably,the dishwasher door didn't open without scraping on the kick boards underneath ( an easy job to fix but has clearly been left judging by the amount of damage to the base of the door) and all of the chopping knives (of which there were over 20!!) were blunt.
The owners had gone to the trouble of organising a welcome pack for us which was unexpected and thoughtful with tea, coffee etc however had chosen to cut corners by providing UHT milk. We were only given 1 bin bag to last our party of 5 for 8 days and when I enquired if there were spares kept anywhere the manager informed us we would have to buy our own. This was the same for toilet paper and washing up liquid. As holiday cottage owners ourselves, we see these items as basic necessities and would not expect guests (particularly oversees guests) to have to purchase their own as these items cannot be bought in small quantities.
Whilst we felt the location of this villa was unrivalled, (glimpses of sea from the back garden, newly opened mini-market over the road) we felt the interior did not match up to the lovely exterior and is in need of some basic maintenance and updating
