  : very clean and modern apartment with a fully equipped kitchen. Helpful staff will await you there to finalise a contract of the stay, to hand over the keys, to show you around in the apartment and explain the various devices (e.g. dish washer, washing machine ...) as well as to arrange the modalities of your departure. The location in a quiet little town is ideal to both explore the scenic villages in the mountaineous hinterland (Dolceacqua, Pigna ...) and to be close enough to the coast with its highlights (Bordighera, San Remo, Hanbury Botanical gardens ...) to be reached within a 30 to 45 minutes drive by car.

Traveller Type: Traveling as Couple
  : Our hosts were lovely. Very efficient, friendly & accessible. The modern apartment was just 2 minutes walk from the centre of Vallebona along a private code-locked footpath. Underneath was a remote key operated parking & garage area where we were able to park our car in its own garage. Trolleys and a lift made shifting the luggage a doddle indeed the layout is wheelchair friendly and well thought out. Private garden was pretty and had views over the Valley & sea beyond. Apartment was well equipped and in good quality too. Everything worked and was squeaky clean
  : If I was being picky (given the apartment is quite pricey), a few issues might warrant attention, as described. We were told that the building is eco friendly? Great, but despite the sliding doors to the garden, the patio seemed to be a 'heat sink' which amplified the external temperature, night & day. More particularly, the lack of any mechanical ventilation meant the rooms became hot & stuffy. At our request, an oscillating fan was provided very promptly, but was most effective when all doors & ensuite windows were wide open, and that meant being eaten alive by midges! Always, the apartment seemed more hot & humid than the town or countryside. The sofa bed was easy to convert and the most comfortable of its sort I have experienced. But, excellent quality or not, the apartment was effectively a great 'bedsit' and having to set up the bed every night was inconvenient and slightly limiting when friends called around. We had a really good time thanks to our hosts - sort out that ventilation and the midges may go hungry!
