Ariana’s apartment in Llanes was our base for a week as we explored the local hiking and archeological sites on this part of the north coast. We highly recommend this rental. The apartment is very comfortable with great views of boats, the town and the harbor. We easily walked to dinner or lunch in 5 minutes or less. Llanes has an interesting quiet old town section, but most of the social action takes place near the harbor. People enjoy the town’s bars and restaurants late into the night, but the apartment has excellent windows that shut out most of the noises from the outside if that is what you want. The apartment is up two flights of beautiful stone stairs. We worried a bit about parking but never failed to find a spot in the very nearby neighborhood. One tip for parking is to rent a small car! We were able to park in places where a larger vehicle would never fit. Around Llanes is some awesome hiking. Get the AllTrails application for your phone and explore the Picos de Europa National Park, or the even closer limestone peaks that can be seen from the apartment. There are a so many trails, and the birding is good. Two must see archeology sites include Altamira and Tito Bustillo Cave. The latter involves walking through dimly lit cave passages with a guide but the main panel of art is worth it. If you are not sure of your walking skills don’t go there. There are so many places to dine in Llanes it is hard to make a recommendation. Two places we visited often was the Gallofa & Co bakery and the Mexican restaurant El Chibiski.

Ariane's flat must have one of the best views in Llanes, and a room full of windows to enjoy them from. Such a sweet spot, and such a wonderful town. We enjoyed every minute.

Llanes is a beautiful town between the mountains and the sea. Great views and food. Lots of outdoor adventure and relaxation. The flat was clean and the views overlooking the harbor are incredible. It's noisy because you are in the center of things and you will want the windows open (sea breeze). We used our phones for white noise and it was fine. Only challenge: no Wifi. Beaches are beautiful...dream vacation.

Excellente vacances dans ce logement extrêmement bien situé. Merci à Ariane pour ses suggestions ainsi que pour son aide.
