We had a wonderful time. Katarzyna arranged to meet us (and was really helpful with our cases too). We enjoyed a very generous welcome pack including wine and fruit plus a host of suggestions for places to visit and restaurants! This was our first visit to the island and her Katarzyna's enthusiasm for it was infectious.
The apartment was spacious and well equipped inside and out. Lots of outdoor space and furniture too. It is about 20-25 mins walk to the harbour area but there are e-scooters available across the street and we used them a lot!
So the immediate area is quiet and we slept well. The famous dunes are 5-10 minutes away.
With a couple of days's car hire we visited Betancuria and the lagoon beach at El Cotillo, another day I took the long drive down to climb the highest mountain, in Jandia.
A good shopping centre, the Campanario, is 10-15 mins walk away, great place for a coffee or a beer plus small shops and a decent supermarket (and a real crafts market once/twice a week). Andra Cafe y Pastel is a friendly stop on the way there. CICAR for car hire!
We spent a lot of time out in the garden with a great wee pool, the barbecue, dinner table and chairs. Fabulous!
