Nice apartment but lacking some basics

Lovely sea view room. doors opened on both sides of wrap around balcony.(apartments 18 and 19 are best).cleaned twice a week with towels etc. spacious bathroom with plenty of hot water. bedroom was quite hot to sleep in but bed comfortable. kitchenette had large fridge freezer but 5 gas rings only. ok if you like pasta or fried food but it definately needed a grill, or at least a toaster!! no kettle so water boiled for coffee in cafatiere or a saucepan if you want to make tea. living room had double sofa bed. short walk to centre of santa maria and a mini market in the street behind for the basics. quiet location away from main town but the local dogs barking every morning and night was annoying and it seems to be the main road for quad bikes. reception staff helpful and friendly and organised taxi transfers to and from airport for 25 euros return. all in all, good value but would request the kettle and toaster!! breakfast is available for 6 euros on the terrace but continental style so a bit pricey.
