Your apartment comes with everything you would expect for your holiday. This includes basic cooking equipment, beach and bathroom towels, bed linen and bathroom toiletries. You are provided with a Welcome Pack with some basic provisions to start your holiday so you have no need to go shopping. Tea, coffee, milk, juice, bread and butter, and for small children we add bananas, yogurt and Weetabix as standard and breadsticks and rice cakes are also available. If there are other provisions you would like, please include them when completing your Booking Form. Otherwise you can be topped-up by asking upstairs if you run out of anything.

Babies and Toddlers

Cots (with mattress protector, bottom sheet and blankets), high chairs, a bouncy seat, changing mats, bibs and plastic feeding equipment can be provided in your apartment. Bed rails, booster seats, potties and a mouli for those first months of weaning can also be provided. Your apartment will have a toy basket and books for the age of your children, and there is a TV and DVD player.

If you would like nappies and baby toiletries for your arrival or anything else to make your holiday more comfortable this can be included in your Welcome Pack when you complete the Booking Form. Sterilising is best done with liquid or tablets and for mixing formula we recommend using bottled water warmed by the sun, all this we can provide and if your baby needs it warmer, then boiled tap water is also suitable.

If you want to go further a field there are picnic mats, 3 wheel buggies and back packs for country walks and sun tents and sun umbrellas to take to the beach.

We recommend you bring with you two grow bags if that is how your baby sleeps, a favourite beaker or bottles for the journey, and a favourite blanky or teddy. If you can face it, bring your own car seat and save yourself the 50 euros and the stress of trying to fit the Spanish car seat in to your hire car.

During the cooler months it can feel as warm as summer during the day and cold after the sun goes down, so bring a mix of clothing if you are coming between October and May. There is a laundry service to save bringing too many clothes.

Sometimes parents can feel a little anxious travelling with a little one. We have a lot of experience with young children staying at the house and there are few things that cannot be overcome, even when a favourite toy was not packed!!
