Martha’s Apartments, Palmanova

Request a pool-facing room for sunshine and the best views; only eight apartments have pool views.

Choose an upper-floor room for better views, quieter surroundings and apparently stronger Wi-Fi; avoid the ground floor if possible.

Avoid ground-floor rooms if you need secure outdoor space or good views; the gardens may not be suitable for children.

Choose a ground-floor apartment for a larger terrace with space for outdoor seating, but expect less privacy and cleanliness.

Find nearby groceries at the supermarket across the road, at the top of the road or roughly five minutes away.

Request a room away from entertainment, courtyard birds and stag groups for quieter nights.

Request a top-floor room for quieter nights and no one walking overhead.

Expect a quiet setting, but allow extra walking time to Palma Nova and the resort centre or seafront.

Request a first-floor room for a view.

Use the free Wi-Fi in reception; rooms at the back may have no signal, while upper floors reportedly connect better.

Choose room 107B for quiet nights, but avoid it if you specifically want an upper-floor apartment.

Choose room 201 for a pool outlook and late-afternoon sun.

Avoid room 216 if you want sunshine; it overlooks a play park and may sit in shade.

Book room 314 for a pool and sea view with sunshine on the balcony for much of the day.

Leave the balcony door unlocked while outside, and return your keys late while keeping your wristbands.

Try the beach bars about 500m away and the nearby Meson restaurants.

Take the airport bus for early flights; it costs £9.10 for three people and stops one minute from Martha’s.

Use the nearby taxi stand or collect a rental car from the agency about 10m away.

Book a double-bedroom apartment if you need separate sleeping space.

Specify the number and arrangement of beds you need, especially when travelling with children.

Double-check your reservation if checking in after midnight.

Choose room 208 for quiet, since it does not overlook the pool.

Choose room 108 for an especially quiet night’s sleep.

Choose the third floor if you prefer an elevated room.

Request a second-floor room for the best views.

Use the free air conditioning, and expect a small deposit when using the in-room safe.
