빌라 비르디에

Villa Birdie has much going for it. Located on a quiet street and very close to town is provided the perfect place for 3 nights. I always looks for a small place, with parking when I need it, breakfast and charm. This had it all. Blanca, owner/host, is welcoming and energetic. She was patient with our questions. There is a bus stop nearby that is a two minute walk and the buses to town come by every 5 to 10 minutes, it seemed. Every inch of the villa has been remodeled. While not spacious it had everything we needed. Breakfast was good. We can really only say good things. I think it would be a good spot for staying longer and making it your base. Buses are easy with a map app. And, as it has a rare parking spot you drive to other locations.

Exquisitely presented hotel with all the trimmings. Blanca the owner is lovely, shes very attentive, if you spend the day around the pool she comes out offering free drinks which is a lovely touch. She offers her knowledge of the area and gives good advice on places to visit, restaurants, bus routes etc. Our room was a good size with a lovely ensuite shower room all cleaned daily, the rooms have a free mini bar and free coffee machine which are restocked daily. There is parking available but you do have to work with Blanca and the other guests as one car sits behind another, it really was no issue to me whatsoever to move briefly if required. Breakfast was superb and plentyful and you won't need to eat until the evening. All in all, a loveky place and we would certainly stay again if we were in the area.

Villa Birdie is a special place to stay. More like staying in a friend's beautiful home. Cannot recommend too highly. Blanca is one of life's diamonds! She will enhance your stay with her knowledge and recommendations. Everything is immaculate and the pool and outside space is beautiful. The food and recommendations in the town were fabulous. The local wine and pinxtos are superb. A wonderful stay with a beautiful, generous and magical host. Thank you Blanca.

It doesn’t happen very often that we walk into a strangers house and feel at home. However: this was the case when we entered Villa Birdie. This excellent boutique hotel has it all: beautiful rooms, tasteful design, good quality furniture, a spotless garden, a great swimming pool, parking and a fridge with free beer and soft drinks. There’s even a wheelchair-friendly entrance and an elevator if needed. But what makes this place probably the best place we’ve ever stayed in is Blanca, a fantastic host with a warm personality that goes to great lengths to make your stay as pleasant as possible. She reads her guests and gives them personalized insider tips. We liked it so much that, not only did we stay longer than planned, but came back a week later just because it was so great. Me and my partner run a boutique hotel ourselves, so we know what effort it takes to manage a place like this and keep up such a high standard. We can safely say Blanca is a natural: the kind of person you ‘d wish every hotel would have, someone you feel a connection with from the first second, and feel sad to leave when you check out. We’ve read all the reviews and to be honest: the couple of negative ones are so off the mark they basically tell you all you need to know about the people who wrote them. Yes: the host is a colorful, kind hearted character. And that’s one of the many, many reasons we like Villa Birdie so much. We’ll definitely be back! Much love from Bart & Eva, the Belgians from Antwerp :-)

I stayed at Villa Birdie on early this year and the hotel was very nice. Everything we needed and expected was there. The host was very friendly and helped us with some issued that we had. Very good stay. I did my reservation with United Airlines miles. Before arriving I had to make a change in the reservation and did not notice that after making the change I was going to lose all the miles I had spent in my original reservation. After returning home I noticed that the miles were not credited to my account and it is then when I noticed that I had lost them. I proceeded to contact the owner to see if she could help me but she did not answer my calls, blocked me on whatsapp and did not answer my emails. Very dissapointed that I have to write this message.

Great Villa and wonderful host Blanca. Really enjoyed our stay at this lovely villa Birdie. Everything was perfect for us so clean and beautiful surroundings. The owner Blance was attentive and caring made our experience in San Sebastián in another level, she recommended couple of restaurants and organised all booking and even the taxi for us. It was different to have someone so caring and friendly there all the time felt like visiting family. Thank you so much Blanca for everything you done for us. Paul & Bayarmaa from UK
