Vistamar Apartments, Migjorn Gran

Request a second- or third-floor apartment, preferably the top floor; higher balconies offer better views, more breeze, afternoon sun, and less furniture or overhead noise.

Choose a room with a sea view; every apartment has a balcony and sea view, although some face the sea from the side.

Avoid apartment 007.

Bring basic food supplies because you may want to stock the apartment.

Inspect any ground-floor apartment before accepting it, as some sit directly above the restaurant seating area.

Request a room ending in 09 or higher, as higher-numbered rooms are preferable.

Avoid apartment 15.

Choose room 207 for sun from around 2 p.m. through sunset.

Choose room 208 for a full sea-facing view and sunshine for most of the day.

Choose room 11 if you want to be next to the pool.

Request a double bed because the twin beds are very small.

Choose ground-floor room 15 if you want a walk-in shower.

Request apartment 15 on the second floor or higher to avoid restaurant-seating noise below.

Keep food stored away to avoid attracting ants.

Bring earplugs to reduce disturbance from nearby noise.

Check Cosmos prices before booking.

Email the property about a top-floor room about a week before arrival.

Request a room with both pool and sea views.

Choose room 206 for a modern kitchen, sea-and-pool views, and a wide balcony outlook.
