House vacation rentals in Biscay

12 of us stayed with Mari Luz and had a great time. Everyone was comfortable and felt at home for the 4 nights we were there. At first I was worried that we might disturb Mari Luz but we didn't receive any complaints despite 1 or 2 late nights drinking around the dinner table. Also I'm extremely glad we stayed in Castro Urdiales instead of Bilbao since Castro was a much more relaxing and hospitable place and Bilbao was only a 30 min bus away anyway.

We enjoyed our stay with Iciar very much, because of the peace, nature and animals and the nice house. Iciar is a very warm woman, made us feel very welcome and was always available for tips and facts. The house/area fully matches the pictures/description. Plus, there is a variety of things to visit/see on max 1h drive. Highly recommended!

We thought the villa was perfect for our little girl's weekend! Local taxi firms were very accomodating over text message as we could not speak spanish so we were able to Google translate and message them. (uber doesn't work in this area) The local GoT attractions do require booking to visit - which we did not realise but that was due to our own lack of foresight. The host was amazingly responsive, the water system was running cold and she was there within 20 mins to reset the boiler to get us hot water and to help us understand the cooking system. The villa itself was beautiful and the surrounding area was so beautiful to just sit and enjoy. Plenty of space in the villa and multiple bathroom and showers for larger groups of people. I would mention that having a car is essential to stay here for the local shopping and the check out process of disposing of the bins down the road.

My experience in this place was excellent from the start. Communication with the host was quick and clear, and check in was a breeze. The place was spotlessly clean, well-equipped and exactly as shown in the photos (even better!). The location was ideal: quiet but close to everything we needed. We felt very comfortable throughout the stay, like at home. In addition, it was clear that the host cares about the details, which made everything even more enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again and I totally recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for everything!

Incredible place in pristine nature. Mertxe was a wonderful and warm host.

Perfect hosts. Thoughtful and very pleasant. Perfect communication. You can't ask for much more from the house. It has everything to make you feel at home. We'll be back for sure just to give them a little trouble. Haha. It was a pleasure. Thank you for everything.

Absolutely everything was superb, the house, the amenities including outside, the cleanliness. Eduardo and his wife are extremely welcoming and have few recommendations in the area. Thanks to them, I recommend this rental without hesitation.

Lovely home and friendly host - would definitely recommend!

Amazing property, absolutely stunning surroundings, incredible area. The house is ever so rustic and charming, a real gem. We felt so relaxed and at home. Hosts are charming and generous. Neighbour also very helpful. Oh yes, the cat, chickens and free eggs are adorable!!

perfect accommodation, in the middle of tranquility. Dogs are allowed and there is plenty of space to enjoy a barbecue and the outdoors. I would put a spotlight or lamppost outside the house, because when it gets dark, a little more light would be needed to enjoy the summer nights.

A wonderful place to stay. Beautiful location and a great host.

I was going not in Bilbao overnight and chose to stay just outside the city. The house is newly refurbished with clean and functional modern furniture. House has everything included to make you feel comfortable and is really quiet. Ainhoa the host was really helpful, even going as far as to book me a taxi and leaving local food delicacies and oranges for our breakfast. A great host and you won’t regret staying there.

We had a great weekend, the house is wonderful, with incredible cleanliness and decoration with all kinds of details. Vanesa is a great host and makes sure you feel at home at all times. Thank you very much for everything, Vanesa.

Fantastic rural location and accommodation. So nice to find somewhere like this in this day and age, authentic and comfortable. I was in awe of the scenery, having cycled through much of it to get here. Great communications ftom Nerea. Her parents lovely to, looking after me and chatting via Google translate. Most of all it's the location that makes this place a winner for me.

Great place we traveled for the football and carlos couldnt have made the trip any easier for us definitely recommend

The place is beautiful and totally worth it. They answered our questions quickly and were very kind at all times. Recommended

The house is in a beautiful location overlooking a verdant valley and is a short drive to Plentzia. There is a great beach there and a decent Eroski supermarket. Fernanda was a responsive and helpful host who made really helpful recommendations and the house was super comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped and the bedrooms were comfortable and clean with huge amounts of storage. The pool is gorgeous. It’s described as a salt water pool but wasn’t salty at all. We had a great week between hotel stays in Bilbao and San Sebastián.

Monika’s place was lovely. It was large and very comfortable. It is surrounded by nature. We had donkeys come up the fence every day. It had a very large terrace. Monika was very helpful. We loved the place. It is remote and quiet. We would definitely stay there again.

Amaia’s place was fantastic, I stayed there for 10 days and I enjoyed it very much. I came with my dog and I love that the garden is closed and that he could be free there. She also took care of him and treated my dog as if he was hers :) The apartment is super comfortable, very well equipped, and super cleaned. I arrived on a Sunday and Amaia provided me with some eggs and bread so I didn’t have to go out after a long day of driving. I will definitely come back, my time there was lovely.

Beautiful and very well-kept accommodation, surrounded by fruit trees in absolute quiet. Ruben is a very kind and helpful host. Highly recommended!

It was so nice to be greeted by Ainara. I really appreciate that. I also enjoyed the cozy, homey feeling of the apartment. The place offers everything you might need. It is centrally located close to nice bars and restaurants and with a very nice view!

Very quiet location, cozy and authentic Basque house with all the necessary amenities. Very spacious, nicely decorated, well maintained and clean. Very friendly and helpful host. Even sent out a package with forgotten items after the trip. Location is very good base for Bilbao and the lakes towards Vittoria. A little further drive to the coastal villages and San Sebastián but feasible. We had the race bikes with us and could immediately do some climbing nearby.

We stayed for a week and had an amazing time in Laredo. The house was very modern, clean and quiet with a great open kitchen to enjoy family meals. Walking distance to shops and great bars and restaurants and right by the boardwalk, literally one minute away from a beautiful stroll along the beach. We would definitely stay in Gema's place again!

Totally a five-star stay: Lorena was the kind of host you dream of at airbnb. Flexible check in for our early flight, always available for questions during the stay. A beautiful well-kept home full of thoughtful touches like wine, coffee and chocolates on arrival. There was a well equipped gym in the house, plenty of great bedding and towels, quality toiletries, high-end kitchenware. Highly recommended for a stay in Basque country - 15 minutes from centre of Bilbao and easy driving distance to the coast, beaches and Michelin restaurants in the countryside.
