MOUNTAIN HOUSE IN OMOÑO
cottage, spacious. in quiet area. with ample garden, with all amenities (bbq, play area, large dining room).

Rental of a villa in Soto de la Marina, Cantabria
The house is great, it has everything and the area is unbeatable. Pilar's treatment was fantastic and made our stay very pleasant. We will repeat.

Robustiana Accommodation
The place was great. The photos match perfectly . We were lucky enough to watch the sunset over the ocean every night from our terrace. The accommodation is 5 minutes from everything: the beach, museums, downtown, etc. Lorena is really a great host. I recommend a thousand percent!!

Nice apartment in Solares, between valleys and beaches
I went with my wife to spend a couple of days in Cantabria and we stayed here. The apartment was spotless and super comfortable. It even had board games!! Magda was lovely and gave us guidance on places to visit and things to do in the area. Highly recommended, we'll be back

La Encina apartment with garden.
Spectacular garden, well-kept and beautiful house. Jesus is a great host, instant communication and attentive to everything. Thank you very much for the welcome gift.

Rental of Chalet Playa Cerrias
Very nice and spacious house and very nice see view. Close to all amenities of Liencres, which we also liked a lot. We had really enjoyable stay there, short, but really nice.

House for rent in Noja
Perfect house with everything you need and the porch and garden of 10. The beds and the sofa are very comfortable. The location between the beaches and the village on a very quiet street in front of the golf course makes it an ideal place to disconnect. The enclosure is totally fenced so it was perfect to have the dog loose and enjoy it as much as we do. The owner has been attentive from the first moment. Undoubtedly a place to repeat.

The Essence
Very lovely & quaint place with all the necessities to feel at home!

Santander Your home away from home.
Perfect accommodation, all new, clean and well maintained. MaryaM is helpful, very friendly and reachable at all times. How unique less positive is the difficulty in finding parking in the area that subtracts the maximum note from the place, although Santander has become a difficult parking city. Congratulations MaryaM, great apartment and great attention.

Beach apartment
A great place to disconnect for a few days. The house was in perfect condition upon my arrival and with special attention to detail. The host was kind enough to leave juice, milk and gifts for the young children, which I greatly appreciate since we arrived exhausted from the trip, and he was also very quick to answer the phone when needed. So I just want to say thank you.

Tierra y Arte Bahía Apartment
Great treatment from the host, far away place to breathe real air, very good views and with Bilbao and Santander 20 minutes away.

Buendia Beach Apartments
Fernando was an excellent host, one of the best, and the apartment was amazing in a town with a lot of charm like Suances. A 10 of the real ones.

Cozy apartment in the center (G-103930)
We stayed only one night but Marta's place was very clean and comfortable. We missed a bit to check in but it was our fault as we didn't see the building number. The place is centrally located and there are many restaurants around.

"EuroMar" apartment, Somo beach. Parking
The house is spacious, the living room perfect for eating and being 4 people. the beds are new and comfortable. The garage is easily accessible. And the house is in the center, nothing from the beach. Sergio quickly answered all our questions and Pilar gave us a good description of the local restoration. We'll be back if you have it available

Casa Ita-stunning big loft flat in great location
Margarita is an incredibly kind host. She responded immediately to any questions we had, and the accommodation was flawless. The place is located right in the city center, surrounded by great restaurants. At first, we were a bit concerned because it’s on the 5th floor with no elevator, but our young children actually loved climbing the stairs, so it wasn’t a problem at all. We’re planning to visit Santander again, and we’ll definitely stay here next time! 고마워요

apartment in Santillana del Mar (2 to 4 people)
Lovely apartment in the heart of the historic old town. Beautiful building and entrance way to the apartment, which was super clean an had all amenities needed for a 2 night stopover. Met by Miguel who was very helpful.We would highly recommend.

Exceptional!! The experience is unparalleled, the apartment and the area are a delight. Javier was always attentive, and the recommendations are very accurate. The only downside is having to go back after such a pleasant stay. We'll definitely be back. Thanks for everything Javier.

ground floor with private garden next to the beach
New apartment, well kept and clean. The area is quiet and the terrace is very large. Easy parking. Sonia was always on the lookout and was quick to answer any questions. We have been 4 adults and 2 dogs like in our home, very comfortable. Beach 5-10 minutes walk away.

Heartfelt thanks to José Ignacio and Gabriel for opening their home and hearts to us and for making us feel at home. Everything was spectacular. Life gives you opportunities to meet extraordinary human beings. We will definitely be back

Spectacular house. Nearby beach, parking and Wi-Fi.
Everything was beautiful. The house is great, even better than the pictures, I would say. Quiet place, very comfortable beds, the Jardin un gozada con solete and the closed kitchen for breakfast. Armando super friendly and attentive to our comfort. Very nice and grateful.

The living mountain (HAYA CORVA) Beach and Mountain.
The house that Coral offers is the home that anyone would like to have and for a great price, you will enjoy a very enriching stay. Coral, the host, and her dad, who lives there, will make you feel like family as they are charming and are at your complete disposal. We will definitely be back… and more than once. See you soon, dear Cantabria!!
