Great location
Great place to stay. If you’re staying longer than a couple of weeks it has everything you need. Ample cooking facilities and utensils. A smart tv with all the main apps. The balcony is a great size and private The main bedroom is good and the bed is comfortable. The apartment is on the top floor so no noise from other rooms. Cleaner comes once a week and does a great job. The location is convenient for the Old Town Cannot fault the apartment and adds to a stress free environment

Relaxing Winter Break
We visited for one week prior to Xmas. Apartment was in a quiet complex. It was well equipped. Bed was a bit hard but that is personal preference. Issue with ants but ant killer provided. The floor appeared clean but our feet were very unclean. The apartment is on a hill so for anyone with mobility issues would not be suitable. We had a lovely time and was just what we needed as I had been diagnosed with breast cancer two weeks before the holiday and for us this will always be a very special holiday as we were coming to terms with this. We would visit again.

Great for relaxing break.
The apartment has everything you need for your stay, the location’s ideal to get to the old town and if you go the opposite way you walk around to the main shopping area. Great break will go again.

We had a 6 week stay through February and March. The listing is very accurate. We have stayed in many timeshare apartments and none match this for well equiped kitchen, and games books and information. The pool was lovely, my husband used it 3/4 times. We did use the pool area a couple of times but also laid out on the sunny balcony that has sun all afternoon. We like to explore, near and far, most of the time we used the buses, with the stop just a couple of minutes away. If you are likely to use the bus a lot we would recommend paying 2€ for a Bono Card, ( from the driver) and loading as needed 10€ at a time. You then get 10% off your trips. Judy (or other Spanish ladies) come in once a week for a clean and to change the bed linens and towels. Judy was very helpful and in our first week, it was cold once the sun went down and she provided a very welcome heater. She also gave good advice when we had a medical emergency. Far too many lovely restaurants to mention within a short walk, but our favourite was Antonio's. Would happily recommend this apartment

We were totally happy with the accommodation & everything was exactly as advertised (cooking was like home from home with all utensils & pans you would ever need). We had no problems with the shower (absolutely lovely). Security was absolutely spot on which meant we were happy to leave personal possessions on site. Would not hesitate to return to this apartment, balcony is more private than you realise, photos do not do it justice. Judy was as helpful as ever, best housekeeper you will ever meet. Thank you for letting us stay

Lovely break
We had a lovely 9 days away in this properly. The location is brilliant just a short walk to the old town and 15 mins to the strip. It's in a quiet complex with a lovely pool. The rooms were big and we had lots of room to make breakfast, lunch and relax before we went out. I would 100% recommend this to anyone.

Aqua Brava apartments
The accommodation was light and tidy. However, the apartment is not equipped for 4 persons if they were staying. The utensils and pots and pans were dirty and we had to scrub them clean before we used them. The master bedroom due it not getting much light and warmth made our clothes smell after a few days hanging in the wardrobe.

Thank you so much Kenneth, for taking time to leave us a review. We value your thoughts and have carefully considered your comments. We have had no complaints when parties of 4 haves stayed. You are the first guests to find the bedroom not warm and airy. We have guests that have stayed for 6-8 weeks and we ourselves stay frequently and have never experienced anything unusual. Of course we will continue to investigate what could have caused your experience. Finally, cleanliness is something we take seriously and will be bringing it to the attention of our property management. Regards, Martin & Tina

Great apartment first we have ever stayed in that had fish knives and we love eating fish!!!
Stayed from 8th December until 10th January so enjoyed the Xmas, New Year festivities with two firework displays New Years Eve in the Old Town and then on The Strip. We enjoyed the Three Kings Parade on the 5th January which travelled from the harbour in The Old Town all along The Strip to the Hotel Antonio throwing sweets out all along the way for the children. Very detailed instructions in a folder in the very well equipped and comfortable apartment with ample hot water and sunshine on the balcony in the late afternoon and early evening. The owners Tina and Martin and Judy who looks after the apartment for them in Puerto were extremely helpful and made our stay very pleasant indeed. We christened Judy the Phantom Linen Lady of Puerto because we spoke to her but never actually met her and every Saturday we would return to the apartment to find fresh linen and the bed made and clean towels. Well impressed.There is a bus stop a couple of hundred yards away to get you to other resorts on the island and another bus stop across the road if you want to explore the interior of Tías and sample life slightly away from the touristy areas. Well worth doing. There are supermarkets close by if you do not hire a car. We hired a car for the first week but you really do not need one due to the position of Aqua Brava and access to the Old Town and The Strip and only 16 euros for the two of us to get to the airport. The pool area at Aqua Brava is nice but although we swam in the sea the pool felt much colder but did not stop some children using it and must be very pleasant when the weather gets a little hotter. A must visit. Always risky recommending places to eat but here goes. Do not leave Puerto without eating at Lomo Alto (Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence) eat there and you will see why especially if you like BBQ Spare Ribs but you will need to book. There is also a French Restaurant very close to Lomo Alto where I had a delightful fish platter of 4 different fish. The owner told us his wife does a lot of the cooking and there can be a little time between courses but if you like leisurely dining like we do on holiday then it is certainly worth a try. Final recommendation if you should go to Playa Blanca and you like Tapas and Paella look for Restaurant La Quadra. They do a Tapas dish of Aubergine and honey which sounds a bit weird but really works and is very tasty along with the Padron peppers. The owner did all his training in Puerto del Carmen

Bright, airy and spacious apartment.
Very good apartment. Bright, airy and spacious. The location is good. Away from the hustle and bustle of the sea front but an easy walk away. The hill may be a bit challenging on the return but the No 3 bus runs frequently. The apartment came well equipped with most essentials and finding such things as washing up liquid, hand soap and cloths is always a bonus. A scouring pad would have been useful. The keyless entry to the complex and the key safe for the apartment made arrival and departure easy. Being able to watch UK channels on the tv was great especially with the dramatic weather at home. Only slight complaints are the rather cramped and dribble shower. The water flow was sometimes totally inadequate but that may have been a problem for the whole complex. Also the front door needs a bit shaving off as it was impossible to close without slamming which must have been annoying for the people downstairs. We found lots of great restaurants nearby eg El Burro, great for steaks, down by the harbour in the old town and along the sea front. Can highly recommend the Everest for fans of a good curry.

Thank you so much for taking the time to review our apartment. We are glad you found the apartment well equipped and the location ideal. The shower design doesn't suit everyone, which is why we are in the process of planning the refurbishment of the bathroom, to include a bathtub and overhead shower. We regularly stay in the apartment and have not experienced any water pressure problems, so maybe there may have been a water problem in the area. We had not been made aware of the sticking front door, we will resolve as soon as possible. We would like to welcome you back. Tina & Martin

Great !
We really had great holiday. The flat is superb. We liked it ! The location is good. Many things to do around by walk. We especially enjoy to have diner in the balcony even if the table is a little bit small (for 2 people its ok). In the bedroom with two beds, it needs blackout curtains because near the bedroom there are several street lamps that illuminate the bedroom during the night. The mattress are good ! Lovey location that i recommended. Thank you !

Centrale plek voor uitstapjes.
Mooi ruim appartement fijn zwembad om even af te koelen. Centrale ligging om het eiland te verkennen. Puerto de Carmen is erg gericht op Engelsen je vindt er nog weinig orginele eilandbewoners en tappabars hiervoor kun je beter noordelijker gaan. Verder een prachtig Eiland een auto huren is een aanrader je kunt bij het appartement gratis parkeren.
