The Arrival - And My First, "Oh Dear" Moment:
So, the pictures? Absolutely stunning. The reality? Well, let’s just say the driveway almost claimed my rental car as a sacrifice. I'm talking steep. Accessibility: The website promised "accessible facilities." And technically, they had an elevator. But this elevator was a testament to German engineering – efficient, but…cold. No cheerful music, no motivational posters, just a silent, metal box. Considering I have knee problems, This was not ideal so I had to use the other way, a set of stairs, which was difficult but manageable. The apartment itself was gorgeous. Accessibility: There was a door into the room and around the apartment. The bathroom, however, wasn't exactly designed for maneuverability.
First Impressions: The Apartment - Paradise Found…With a Few Caveats
The terrace? Chef's kiss. Panoramic views of the Baltic Sea that would make even the grumpiest sailor crack a smile. Pure, unadulterated bliss. Available in all rooms: The apartment boasted, Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathroom phone, Bathtub, Blackout curtains, Carpeting, Closet, Coffee/tea maker, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, In-room safe box, Interconnecting room(s) available, Internet access – LAN, Internet access – wireless, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Refrigerator, Safety/security feature, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens. Seriously, this place was equipped like a Bond villain’s lair. But the devil, as they say, is in the details. While the Internet access – wireless kept cutting out randomly, I had to use my own mobile data connection. The Daily housekeeping was a godsend. I'm frankly, a messy person.
The Spa - A Sanctuary of Bliss (Mostly)
Okay, the spa. This is where things got interesting. Spa/sauna: The Sauna was fantastic and the Steamroom left me feeling like a wrung-out dishcloth (in the best way possible). The promise of a Body wrap? Divine. Body scrub, yes I did it. The Foot bath was a welcome respite. Massage: The massage was an absolute highlight. I think I actually floated out of the room. Pure, unadulterated relaxation. But there were moments. Like the weird machine that looked like it was trying to communicate with aliens.
Dining Diaries: Food, Glorious Food (Mostly Good)
- Restaurants: There were Restaurants, Poolside bar and a Coffee shop on the premises. The food was mostly excellent, though the menu leaned a little heavily on…well, let's just say "German traditional." The Asian cuisine in restaurant was a pleasant surprise, even though it wasn't an Asian restaurant. Breakfast service was a buffet, which I love. Breakfast [buffet] Yes, yes, yes to all the bacon and croissants, but I found the Coffee/tea in restaurant really bad, but nevermind the Bottle of water was there. The Happy hour was a nice touch. They had Desserts in restaurant as well.
Going the Extra Mile, And Not Always Succeeding
- Services and conveniences: Invoice provided for business trip. Doorman was friendly, a bit too friendly, Concierge helped me with everything. Facilities for disabled guests Were there, Elevator was an important aspect. Dry cleaning was available, Laundry service was useful. Daily housekeeping was great. Luggage storage was nice, because I had a lot of luggage. Safety deposit boxes are a must.
For the Kids, For the Family
- For the kids: Family/child friendly. There were Babysitting service available. Kids meal were available but the offer was smaller.
Cleanliness and Safety: (Generally) A Thumbs Up
Okay, this is a big one. Cleanliness and safety: The apartment looked clean, and that's definitely a good starting point. Throughout the premises they were using Anti-viral cleaning products. Hand sanitizer was everywhere. Staff trained in safety protocol, were wearing masks. Rooms sanitized between stays as far as I know.
Getting Around - A Mixed Bag (Mostly Car-Dependent)
- Getting around: Car park [free of charge]. Car park [on-site] was available. Valet parking was useless.
The Verdict: Worth It? (With a Few Reservations)
Look, the Seaview Terrace Apartment in Blowatz has its quirks. The driveways, the spotty wifi, the sometimes-questionable décor. But the views? The spa? The general feeling of escape? They were chef's kiss amazing. Overall, a solid 4/5 stars. If you're looking for a truly relaxing escape, with a side of minor inconveniences, then this is your place. Just remember to pack your patience, your sense of humor, and your own portable wifi hotspot.
Final, Imperfect Thought:
I’m already planning my return. Maybe I’ll bring a friend who's good with wi-fi. And maybe I’ll just take the stairs. You know, just to be on the safe side.
French Riviera Paradise: Your Private Pool Awaits in Montclera-Cazals!Alright, buckle up, Buttercup, because this isn't your perfectly-filtered, Instagram-ready itinerary. This is real life, Germany edition, from the slightly-too-small-but-charming-apartment-with-a-terrace-that-promised-ocean-views-and-then-delivered-them-with-a-healthy-dose-of-seaweed-scent-in-Blowatz. Let's get messy.
The Blowatz Breakdown - Or, My Attempt at Sanity in Sasnitz…ish
Pre-Trip Chaos (AKA Reality Before the Beach)
- The Booking Debacle: Remember that charming, rustic farmhouse I thought I'd booked? Nope. Turns out, my translation skills are as rusty as a Baltic Sea shipwreck. Ended up in an apartment. A cute one, mind you, but not the dream. Lesson: Google Translate is a liar. And I now have a serious fear of thatch roofs.
- Packing Panic: I’m convinced I packed enough socks for a polar expedition. And three variations of the "perfect beach read." I’m also pretty sure I neglected all the chargers. Sigh. It's a given, the moment I forget something important is the moment I need it.
Day 1: Arrival, A Sea View, and the Quest for Currywurst
- Morning - The Pilgrimage: Arrived, blessedly, without losing my passport or sanity. The drive was… German. Efficient. Green. Full of wind turbines that looked a bit like alien invaders. Found the apartment. It's…compact. The terrace? Glorious! The sea? Pretty darn close (and a little seaweed-y).
- Afternoon - The Sea Air and A Touch of Panic. Immediately threw myself (well, unpacked, then strolled) towards the beach. The sea was a murky sort of green-grey, not the postcard blue I was hoping for but the air was so fresh. Started to relax. Then, panic! Where’s the nearest currywurst stand?! This is Germany! Food is a non-negotiable.
- Evening - Currywurst Quest (and Slight Failure): Okay, so Blowatz is charming, but it ain’t Berlin. The quest was lengthy. I finally found a “Imbiss” (a tiny, roadside snack shack) listed on Google Maps. Closed. My stomach rumbled. I felt like a cartoon character. After much searching, and a few wrong turns, I found an ok Imbiss, the Currywurst was delicious, but small. Then, the terrace. Wine. Sunset. All was forgiven. Mostly.
Day 2: Beach Day Bliss (and Battling the Seagulls)
- Morning - The Beach Beckons: Okay, the sea's still that color, but the sand is PERFECT. Soft, blonde-ish, and not littered with the usual trash. Spent the morning soaking up the sun. Read half a book (progress!) and watched the waves. Pure bliss. Until…
- Afternoon - The Seagull Wars: The seagulls here are not messing around. They're like tiny, feathered commandos, eyeing your snacks with laser-like focus. Left my lunch unattended for two seconds, and it was a feeding frenzy. Ended up wrestling a rogue croissant from a determined seagull. Victory, but I'm still recovering.
- Evening - Fishing Village Fun: Drove to a nearby fishing village (forgot the name – GPS is my life) and had some fantastic fresh fish. Felt thoroughly European. Also, learned that "smørrebrød" is the best darn open-faced sandwich. Ever.
Day 3: Ditching the Car and Finding Peace (and More Food
- Morning - The Car's Fate: Okay, the car has been a mixed bag. I got lost in the most rural roads, and am now convinced the signs are intentionally misleading. Decided to walk around the village. No car needed for a day!
- Afternoon - More Food, More Joy, and a Little Bit of Wonder: Found a little bakery. The smell! The colors! Got lost in the small village and ended up in a charming cafe which looked like a miniature version of a cottage, the food was divine, the staff were happy.
- Evening - Back to the Terrace: Wine. Sunset. More contemplation of life. Realized that I could probably live here forever. Then remembered the lack of currywurst. Still not a flawless plan, but… good.
Day 4: The Island and the Imperfect Perfection (and Lost Keys?)
- Morning - The Island Adventure: Took a day trip to the nearby island of Rügen. It was… crowded. But beautiful. And the chalk cliffs were truly awe-inspiring. Like, seriously, my jaw dropped. The Baltic Sea looked positively turquoise from the cliffs!
- Afternoon - Almost-Lost in Translation (and Lost Keys?): Tried to order ice cream. Failed. Badly. (My German is still appalling.) Then, the apartment key…gone. Frantically searched. Found it. Never, ever, leaving again. Definitely taking a German class when I get home.
- Evening - Terrace Retreat and a Moment of Reflection: Back to the blessed terrace. Wine. The sea. The sounds of the seagulls (much appreciated this time.) Realized that even with the hiccups, the wrong turns, the questionable currywurst, and the fear of a key-less existence, this trip is perfectly imperfect. And I wouldn't trade it for a perfectly curated Instagram feed.
Day 5: Departure and a Promise to Return (Maybe with a German Dictionary)
- Morning - Packing and Painful Goodbyes: Pack. Again. Sigh. Said a silent goodbye to the terrace view, the beach, the (eventually) welcoming locals.
- Afternoon - The Road (and Currywurst Dreams): One last drive. One last glance at the sea. And, already, the promise of a return. With better German, and a very in-depth search for the perfect Currywurst.
Post-Trip Rant/Reflections:
- The Seaweed: Yeah, the seaweed smell sometimes drifted up, but honestly, it became part of the charm. It's the smell of the ocean, and the smell of being here.
- The Apartment: Small, yes. But it cradled me in its own little bubble of peace.
- The Lesson: Embrace the mess. Embrace the imperfections. Because those are the things you remember, and the things that make a trip truly… human. And buy a German dictionary. Seriously.
So, there you have it. My Blowatz adventure. Beautiful, messy, and oh-so-me. Now, where's that currywurst…
