The Costa de Almeria region
Almeria is a very attractive city with a variety of historical attractions, shops and pavement cafes, including the beautiful square, the Plaza de la Constitucion. It is home to a magnificent 10th century Moorish castle, Alcazaba, which is the second largest Muslim fortress in Andalusia.
There are 7 golf courses in the Almeria region. Almerimar Golf Course, designed by Gary Player is only 1km from Laguna Beach. Its 27 holes provide challenging golf for players of all levels and has recently been remodelled. Within 20 minutes drive are two other courses. La Envia, built in a mountain basin surrounded by stunning scenery and Playa Serena at Roquetas de Mar, a good quality holiday golf course. Within an hour's drive away - along the excellent fast motorway, are 4 further excellent courses Valle del Este, Desert Springs, Alboran Golf Club and Mojacar Marina - all offering top quality golf.
Although unknown to many, the ancient Andalusian province of Almeria has 200 miles of virtually undeveloped coastline. Enjoying the warmest and sunniest climate in the whole of Europe, with temperatures in January averaging 17°c and in July and August 28°c, and an average of 3,000 hours of sun per year. This historic province was late in developing tourism and although it is now bringing in amenities and facilities for holidaymakers, Almerimar has learnt from the mistakes of the sixties and construction is kept to a low specified height, leaving 60% surface area for parks and green areas and remains one of the most charming and unspoilt regions in Southern Spain.

We have visited Laguna Beach 3 times and are returning for a 4th time Easter 2012. The penthouse is south facing which means as well as the roof top terrace, the balcony gets the sun all day. Sports facilities are great and bikes with the apartment are an added bonus. The new wi fi is great for our 3 teenagers to keep in touch with life back home. |

If you like it hot and relaxed Laguna Beach in Almerimar is the place for you. We could not fault the apartment and the aircon in July was a welcome must. This is a penthouse apartment and the roof terrace was a great extra feature for eating outside and having BBQ's, we had 3 during our stay. The complex is clean and modern and the pool area just what was required, although the bar was disappointing. I found it rather too hot but our teenage girls loved it. Laguna Beach is a car or bike ride from the centre with only one or two restaurants within walking distance on a hot July night. The night life is a bit restricted for teenage girls. We spent some enjoyable lunchtimes in the harbour area, reading the papers and enjoying the free tapas served with every drink you order, a very nice touch. I would certainly go again but not in July and August, so we can explore more of the area without roasting. |
