Guestbook for Don Joaquin Apartment
A beautiful location and very central for shopping, sports, entertainment etc.
We liked the fact that you could get to the pool and gardens directly from the patio which has a gate leading to the pool and gardens. Great just relaxing on the sunbeds on the apartment's patio.
No need for carrying everything upstairs or into lifts. We have had a great time and hope to return next year.
Mr.and Mrs C. Johnston Leeds
Our family really loved Benalmadena. A very comfortable apartment and it suited us because of the aparment's terrace gate being so near the gardens and the pool. The Marina is fabulous and to walk on the beach in the evening and see the sun set over the water was so brilliant.. .
C and J Johnston West Midlands
We liked the fact that the location was safe and there was no disturbances through bad behaviour from other people on holiday here. Very clean. We loved the Marina and really enjoyed strolling in the Spanish village, Arroyo, most evenings. R J Millar London
Relaxing holiday in the sun. You can't beat a good location - close to the airport, the sea, the Spanish village, the beach and the marina. A. Dillon (Belfast)
