Hostess was so helpful. Did laundry for a small charge. Room was very unique and comfortable with a great view. Excellent location and breakfast was wonderful.

We received a warm welcome and were shown to our very comfortable room on the first floor at the back. The rooms and bathrooms are very spacious, quiet, beds are comfortable, shower good. The location is part way between Cee and Corcubion village proper, so a few minutes walk in either direction for a restaurant. We were particularly looking for a quiet, restful room, and we got that!

Rocío

Único hotel temático de España dedicado a la relación histórica entre los hombres y las ballenas. En la ría donde estuvo la última ballenera de España, clausurada en 1985.

Soy una persona cercana, siempre pendiente de que tu estancia sea inmejorable.Me gusta el trato cercano y familiar. En Casa Da Balea conectamos con nuestros huéspedes.

Estamos en el corazón del casco antiguo de la villa marinera de Corcubión, declarada conjunto histórico-artístico en 1985. Por nuestra calle pasa el Camino de Santiago al Finisterre.

On my Caminos I have been impressed by the customer focus of the people who run the accommodation. Here I thought it was lacking. I arrived at a guess about 2pm had my shower and asked about laundry and was told wait till tomorrow. Ok I can live with that. Next morning I needed clean drinking water and an envelope for money for my bag and waited around until after 9 but no one appeared. Just unsettled me a bit - so unlike my previous experiences on Camino. Perhaps I have been spoiled.
The room was great. A little quirky. Loved the lampshade and some of the other furnishings in my room. It was clean and well heated (after yet another rain soaked day). Love to give the place full marks but the lack of enthusiasm of staff needs to be taken into account

The price is a bit high compared to our other similar private rooms but we enjoyed this place and would recommend it. We were disappointed to be told that none of the twin rooms had a view of the harbour, but it did have a small balcony overlooking the street.
We received a warm welcome and were shown to our very comfortable room on the first floor at the back. The rooms and bathrooms are very spacious, quiet, beds are comfortable, shower good. The location is part way between Cee and Corcubion village proper, so a few minutes walk in either direction for a restaurant.
