The apartment was very spacious, bed very comfortable, kitchen well equipped with all mod cons and was exceptionally clean. Nice clean pool, comfortable sunbeds, plenty of umbrellas and chairs in the outside area. The pool bar staff were very friendly and helpful. Great cocktails, 2-4-1 happy hour, great value for money. All staff were friendly and helpful. Very attentive to requests. Eg we asked for more pillows and they were bought to our room within an hour. The building is secure and safe, with a personal safe provided free in the bedroom. The flatscreen tv was a bonus as my husband could watch the football! We found Pineda to be fairly quiet in the evenings, this surprised us as it was the last two weeks of June. On several occasions we were among just a handful of people in a restaurant. Also some restaurants are only open in the day time plus Fri & Sat night. The beach was beautiful and we had several walks to the towns in both directions. The train was easy to use and we visited Barcelona- an hour away. There is a skate park directly opposite the apartment block, this didn’t bother us, but you can hear the teenagers and their music. What did bother us (a lot) was the dog park directly opposite on the other corner. The many dogs that use it seemed to bark constantly from morning to late evening. We also found that the streets of Pineda have a lot of dog poo left on the streets. There are many supermarkets and shops nearby. We arrived using the shared shuttle service which was excellent value for money at €15 each, took about 1 hr 15min, but then a 10-15 min walk to the apartment which was ok for us. On our return to Girona airport we opted for a private transfer as it only took 45 mins, €85. Overall we had a lovely two weeks here in Pineda, excellent value for money and great to explore this costal area.
