“Just what we were looking for” We had a lovely relaxing 2 week holiday. The apartment was a real home from home with everything we needed, we couldn't have asked for more. The gardens and swimming pool were very well kept and an ideal place to relax and there were plenty of sunbeds available. There were plenty of bars and restaurants nearby and 2 supermarkets within walking distance, we manage fine without a car. We did use the cheap and reliable local bus service. We also used the pick up and drop off service provided through Sol Finders. This was an excellent & professional service and would recommend it.

“It does exactly what it says on the tin” First class home from home it's well appointed and in a great location for supermarkets, restaurants and local shops. South facing balcony overlooking beautiful garden and swimming pools is peaceful and a pleasure to enjoy. Response: Really pleased you enjoyed the apartment and its location.I try to provide potential occupants with honest information about the location, it's suitability and about local costs. Many thanks Ann

“Stress free” We visited Ann's apartment for 2 weeks in July and couldn't of asked for a better service. Everything is just how it has been described in the advert. Ann was really helpful providing us with great information of the local area etc. We rented a Car for the 2 weeks (which isn't necessary) although we did go and site see some great places - Puerto Bonus, Marbella Old Town, Ronda Old Town, Gibraltar and The Aqua Park. The car was also great for Capabino beach which we felt was the nicest (you do need a car to get here - 10mins drive) Unfortunately the air con was broke when we arrived, but we informed Sol Finders, who had a engineer come and look at it the next day - which was fantastic service. The apartment and its surroundings are really relaxing and perfect for a family with young children as its very secure. The pool area is great. We ate at some great restaurants that are within very easy walking distance our favorite was "The Far Isle" which had great service and great food All in all this was a very relaxing holiday from booking through to departure and we would love to come again Response: Thanks Ann

Guestbook for Apartment 1B Block 3

I recently stayed for a week in your apartment with my sister. The apartment is lovely, clean, spacious and is in a really good location, close to bars + restaurants, supermarket and bus stops. Both Ann and the management company 'solfinders' are really helpful and nothing is too much trouble and they are able to sort any problems asap. Also, we were able to stay in the apartment until we had to depart for our flight which is a really good advantage as we could spend an extra day by the pool.
We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely come back and stay here again.
Many thanks

August 2010- Just thought I'd drop you an email to say what a truly amazing holiday we have had and to thank you for giving us the opportunity to stay in your wonderful apartment. Everything was just as described and more. The location was ideal and we really didn't feel the need to venture further than the pool and local restaurants. We will certainly be recommending our accommodation to others and can see ourselves coming back in the future. T.Gardiner

July 2010- Just liked to say the stay in the apartment was a joy. We loved it and hope to book again for next year. C. Adamson

July 2010 -Hi Ann, we had a great holiday and loved your apartment, it had everything we needed and more and it was great that it was so close to all the amenities.The pool and gardens were fantastic, we had a relaxing time and the kids loved the pool. Thank you for being so relaxed about our departure time, as it meant we had some extra time at the pool and were not rushed. D Shields

May 2010- We had a lovely holiday at your super apartment. We will be staying again and thank you for understanding about the ash cloud -something that nobody would have thought about .The apartment was very central for all our needs and we had a very relaxing holiday, many thanks. S. Parsons

April 2010-We are two girls in our twenties who wanted a nice relaxing holiday in the south of Spain to escape the busy life of London. Having previously lived in Marbella I wanted to stay in a location nearby where I could easily access all Marbella has to offer without having to pay the price! I found Ann’s apartment online and it looked lovely so we decided to go there for a week in April 2010. It did not disappoint. The apartment itself is decorated to a very tasteful and high standard and the gardens are very quiet, well maintained and with a good sized pool. We were also pleasantly surprised to find all the little extras in the kitchen we would need on our holiday but may not necessarily want to buy for a few days such as condiments and clingfilm etc. and also details such as hotel soaps in the bathroom, which did not go unnoticed. Unfortunately our return journey home coincided with the volcanic ash disruption. In our bad luck we were also very lucky that Ann was so considerate. She called us from the UK and helped us out as much as possible by allowing us to stay longer in the apartment until we could return home. We were extremely grateful for this and the agency was also very helpful. I would definitely recommend this apartment to friends and family. It is close to many supermarkets, local bars, the beach and also the bus stops which came in very useful for getting around! The area is very ‘English’ but it is also very accessible to other areas along the coast where more variety can be found.Thank you for being a great property owner! A Turner

2009-My husband and two teenage daughters spent two weeks at this beautiful apartment in August this year. We had a fabulous holiday due to the quality and location of Medina Del Zoco. The apartment itself is beautifully appointed and the standard of furnishings and cleanliness is second to none. We felt at home as soon as we got there and found everything we needed in the apartment. The location in Calahonda is brilliant - so near to all the supermarkets, shops and restaurants yet extremely peaceful in the apartment and beautiful gardens. There is no need for a car as there is a brand new SuperSol just to the rear of the apartment and the main road is a mere 5 minute walk where you can get the bus to Marbella or Fuengirola.The restaurants in El Zoco are wonderful and offer a wide variety of choice and value for money and best of all are a 5 minute stroll from the apartment. The owner and management team are so so helpful and made the whole experience as stress free as possible and were always at the end of the phone if you need anything. All in all we had an amazing holiday in a wonderful apartment and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. J Richardson

2009- We had a wonderful holiday and can fully recommend the apartment and facilities.Everything was very clean and the apartment is beautifully furnished. We found the holiday very relaxing as there was no need for a car and the lovely mature gardens provided lots of shade for lounging by the pool. The agents were great, they were there to meet us and arrived exactly on time to return us to the airport. A. Mallon

2009- We had a lovely break in this fabulous apartment in Calahonda over the New Year. The apartment is beautifully furnished, ideally situated for the many bars and restaurants close by, and had every comfort and facility we needed. Also, the staff at Solfinders were very kind and helpful, I hope we may stay there again in the future.A Marshall

2009-I stayed at this apartment with my 3 children during the Easter holidays and we has such a lovely time. The apartment is spotlessly clean, well equipped and extremely comfortable, like home from home. There are so many places to go nearby and taxis and buses are easy to catch within a couple of minutes of the apartment. Richard from Solfinders collected and picked us up perfectly on time. We very much hope to return soon. K Owen.

2009- Just a wee e-mail to thank you for the lovely apartment in calahonda we all had a super time and really didnt want to come home,we would love to return again sometime.Thanks a million.H Johnston
