LA CASITA DE JIMENA, Valencia

The apartment sits in a quiet residential area 10 minutes on foot from the sandy Malva-rosa Beach and 2 km from Valencia Port. The bus stop for line 31 is a 2-minute walk, giving direct access to the city centre (about 15 minutes by bike or bus). The nearest tram stop is also close and connects to the marina and L'Oceanografic. Valencia Airport is 13 km away - the bus line 31 runs from the airport to near the property, so a car is not necessary. Bicycle rental and a supermarket are within walking distance, making daily errands and exploring easy without a vehicle.

This third-floor apartment (no lift, but low-rise stairs) has two bedrooms and one bathroom with a shower, free toiletries, bathrobes, and guest robes. The master bedroom features a very comfortable king bed, and the second has a single - the unit sleeps exactly 4 people, with no sofa bed available. The living area has a dining table, sofa, flat-screen TV with cable channels, and access to a balcony with tables, chairs, and fairy lights overlooking the city. The kitchen is fully fitted with a refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, stove, washing machine, and all cookware; an iron and ironing board are also provided. Air conditioning and heating keep the apartment comfortable year-round. The space is designed as a home-from-home, with many stays reporting a well-stocked fridge as a welcome surprise - typical provisions include eggs, cheese, ham, bread, fruit, juice, and wine, enabling self-catered breakfasts from arrival.

There is no on-site restaurant, but the apartment kitchen includes a refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, and all utensils for self-catering. Most stays receive a welcome pack with ingredients such as bread, eggs, cheese, ham, fruit, and drinks - enough for several breakfasts. Guests may also use the outdoor dining table on the balcony for meals. Several good restaurants, a tapas bar (Bodega La Aldeana, 0.5 km), bakeries, and a supermarket are all within a short walk, providing easy alternatives for eating out or buying supplies.

The main leisure offering is the proximity to Malva-rosa Beach - a 10-minute walk - where the apartment provides sun umbrellas for guest use. The beach is ideal for morning swims or a day out. For more active recreation, bicycle rental is available nearby (a 2-minute walk), and the promenade is perfect for cycling or jogging. The city's top attractions L'Oceanografic and Bioparc Valencia are a short tram or bus ride away. The apartment also has board games and a CD player for quiet evenings in.

Free Wi-Fi (290 Mbps) is fast enough for 4K streaming and remote work on multiple devices. Self-check-in is available - key handover can be arranged for arrivals after midnight. Check-in starts at 15:00 and check-out at 12:00, with early or late stays possible if pre-arranged. The host is reachable by message and has been noted for quick responses and helpful tips (including pre-booking taxis). The apartment is fully non-smoking throughout, and no pets are allowed. No on-site parking exists, but the nearby bus and tram stops make car-free movement easy.
