Arpaiu

Definitely the room was stunning with ocean view right in front of you once you open the window from your room. Chill with wine pairing with wind breezing. The host is helpful too.

We so much enjoyed our stay! After a little issue finding the place (we came by car and weren't sure where to park. Most folks come by train and don't have an issue) we were warmly greeted by Tatyana and Paulo and assisted with parking and our luggage. (cell signal is spotty, so get as much detailed information beforehand as possible). Our room was not large, but clean. Simply appointed, there was bottled water, candy, and a bottle of sparkling wine for our sunset toast on the balcony upstairs. The house was not full of guests, though the other family there was of no disturbance to us, and we all enjoyed the balcony together at times. While this is a simple, no-fuss accommodation, the views and hospitality make up for any amenity you may feel it lacks. Remember, you're in the middle of a quaint village, living amongst people who have lived in this village for decades. Respect to them, and an attitude of simple living, will ensure your time here is pleasurable. We opted for the breakfast, and were not disappointed. Tatyana served a traditional fare and plenty of hot coffee and juice. We were free to come and go at will, and leave our bags on check-out day until we were ready to leave the town. We would definitely return for another visit at Arpaiu. (There are many stairs and hills to climb. Ability to climb MUST be taken into consideration before booking)

Stayed in the SAARGU room which had no view but was built with rocks all around so you felt like you were in a cave. The staff only communicated via what’s app. We ran out of toilet paper and the charging outlets didn’t work. It wasn’t until we were packing up to check out did she respond/ show up. The couple checking in then also showed up, came into our room to drop there bags used our bathroom and changed. All before we even checked out. Very uncomfortable and strange. The view from the common area was beautiful but that’s it. Also we were never told in advance that parking would be $85. You have to walk up a very steep hill and this place is hard to find.
