Read the description: The best apartments will give you the best of everything, so make sure that the description of the property and what’s available, is what you really want.

Check location: They will need to be close to local amenities, such as a shops and bars or restaurants.  Those in the larger resorts will, obviously, give you more choice of amenities. Apartments that are some way inland or over a certain distance from the resort centre, might require you to hire a car.

Check prices during high and low seasons: Private holiday rental properties will generally cost between 200 – 600 euros a week.  Prices will be cheaper in the winter season than at peak times such as the summer or at Christmas.
