Alicante is situated in The Costa Blanca,a very popular destination with 320 days of sunshine a year.Surrounded with salt lakes and white sandy beaches This is an ideal location for keen golfers,offering numerous golf coarses within a few minutes drive.

The old town of Calpe is worth a wander around to see some historical buildings and squares. There's a street market every Saturday in the town and a flea market every Wednesday. In the summer months there are crafts fairs in the old town.

“A total rest................” A lovely flat with everything you could ever need, within walking distance of the town, old town and harbour. We were met by Francis with keys and full instructions - really helpful. A peaceful apartment block which is spotless with lift, swimming pool and even a book exchange! The flat itself has amazing views out of every window, a comfortable living room, well stocked kitchen, wifi which always worked and even Britsh TV channels (handy when it was a bit chilly out). Would definitely recommend Response: Glad it hit the spot Pam...you're welcome back anytime....Tim.

“Lasting memories of Calpe” We stayed for four weeks in the excellent apartment at 5a Rubino. Very well situated first line on the promenade between the port and the arenal beach which extends up to the town. Wonderful views from the sun lounge straight along this beach with the mountains at Maryvilla providing a lovely backdrop. From the bedrooms the view is towards the port and the awesome Penyon for which the town is famous. For the energetic the walk to the top provides a wondrous view of the surrounding area. Well worth the effort if physically able. The apartment is tastefully furnished and provides a comfortable stay for your holiday. The hot/cold air heating system ensures a comfortable temperature at all times. To the front of the building there is an attractive pool area and adequate parking in the street at the rear. There is an abundance of restaurants close at hand all providing good meals at reasonable cost. . A visit to the old town is well worth the effort and especially enjoy the english run Patio del Fuente for first class food. Calpe is a lovely town and to my view the best seaside on the Costa Blanca. Response: Many thanks for your kind review, and we're glad you enjoyed your stay.....come again! Tim.

“A modern, beautifully furnished apartment with picture-postcard views” This was our first visit to Calpe and , although it was off-season, there was still enough of interest in and around Calpe to keep us occupied. Apart from the first week when we had stormy weather for 3/4 days, we mostly had bright sunny days and thoroughly enjoyed exploring Calpe and the surrounding area. The apartment was excellent. Rubino is situated in what is probably the best location in Calpe and opens directly on to the paved promenade within easy walking distance of the Old Town, the harbour and the various lovely beaches. 5A is beautifully furnished in modern style and has fantastic views of the sea and mountains from the lounge and the glass-curtained balcony. The bedrooms also have wonderful views of the famous Penon Rock and the views are special even when the weather is not at it's best. In summary, we had a wonderfully relaxing time in this welcoming and comfortable apartment. Response: Glad you enjoyed your time with us. Winter weather can be unpredictable, but still nice and warm! Come back again...... Tim.

“Great apartment, good location, great views!” Booked this apartment for the first time but have been to Calpe many times. Loved the location of the apartment given you could access both main areas of Calpe, with a lovely beachside walk to the old town... The Apartment had great views both from the balcony and the bedroom that overlooked the harbour and Calpe rock. The Apartment has been very tastefully furnished along with Free-sat Tv that was a must as my stay was during the Olympics! The apartment also has air-con and free wi-fi and we also enjoyed using the outdoor pool to cool down.. There is a free car park which is a bonus given this can be quite an issue during peak summer... So all in a very good apartment and would recommend,, Response: Many thanks for your review....Tim.

“Lovely base to enjoy Calpe” My wife, daughter & myself booked the apartment for the February half-term school holiday. Having been several times before we were really looking forward to our break &, once again, we were not disappointed. This Rubino apartment is a comfortable location with all mod-cons & is ideally located with great views. We love the range of local restaurants & enjoy the pleasant walks along the front. We had a lovely relaxing break & really didn't want to leave at the end of the week! Response: Lloyd, Thanks for taking the time to do this review. We hope to see you again next year, and maybe in the new apartment in Cyprus later in the year too. Tim.

“Best ever family Holiday” The town has a great mix of shops and restaurants and the beaches are fantastic. It is a great place for a family holiday, we have been three times and have never seen any bad, typical holiday behaviour, and are happy and comfortable to let the chilfdren roam around the beach.The apartment was clean, comfortable and ideally placed, with great views of the Penon. It is not too close to the town centre, but not too far to walk into in the evening for a meal.The pool is a great bonus, being spotlessley clean and was never crowded. I would recommend Calpe and the Rubinio apartment to anyone. Response: Dean...many thanks for your review and for coming back. This is the greatest testimonial we can get.........Tim.

“Great place for a family holiday” "We can highly recommend Tim & Anna's apartment in Calpe. The Rubino apartments are ideally situated, close to the beach and harbour, yet away from the town to be able to have some quiet time. The nearest beach is a two minute walk and the town is a a nice 10 -15 minute stroll along the beach front promenade where there are shops and restaurants. The apartment is well appointed and ideal for both young and old alike, we spent a week there with our 23 year old son and future daughter in law and it was suitable for all of us. We loved the large balcony it was ideal for sitting out at night with more than enough room to eat and drink in the warm evenings. The pool area is ideal and very clean, and the apartment block is safe within a gated complex. We will certainly be thinking about a return holiday soon." . Response: Ken, Thanks for taking teh time to carry out a review. We are so pleased that you had such a positive time. Tim.

“Fantastic - blown away” We thoroughly enjoyed a two week holiday at the Rubino in Calpe from the 10th June 2011 and had a really wonderful time. The apartment is finished to a contemporary standard and is a great 'adult' place but it also works with families - we had two small children (3 and 1 year old) and they absolutely loved it. A cot, high chair and buggy were provided which really reduced the amount of stuff we had to take on the plane. The apartment was very safe for the children - the balcony had fantastic sea views and the high walls and option to pull glass partitions across meant we were never worried about the little ones playing on the balcony. The really great thing about the location of the apartment is that you have the option of three pools in the apartment complex (a deep one, a medium depth one and a small shallow baby pool), the beach / sea is just the other side of a path right outside the apartment plus a short walk in both directions (either towards the old town or towards the marina) takes you to various different beaches and they are all really lovely. Our friends who used the apartment in the past hired a car but we didn't - everything we needed was in walking distance and we found a Lidl store within about a 10 minute walk so we were able to get cheaper groceries than in the smaller local shops which could be more expensive. There were plenty of options for eating and we had some great meals out. Half way through the holiday at midnight we were unexpectedly treated to a midnight firework extravaganza - we heard them, woke up, went on the balcony and enjoyed the most amazing display from the comfort of the apartment - it was as though they were just for us as they were on a rock jetty about 600 hundred yards directly in front of the apartment. The weather was brilliant (the week before we arrived had been unusually a little mixed), we enjoyed 2 weeks of great sunshine - hot but not unbearable for the children with only one or two cloudy days, one of which there was a very brief rain shower. We had a fantastic time and thoroughly recommend it Response: Will, Reeally appreciate the holiday review you've done. Hope to see you again soon, Tim.

“Amazing holiday due to a great apartment with excellent customer service from the owners” I have been to this apartment a number of times now, a couple of times with my family but also with a group of work colleagues for a retreat, and then in June this year with a group of lads. Each time I have found the apartment has met all of our needs. This year (2011) we arrived to find that the apartment had been decorated and equipped even more. The table and stools out on the balcony were a great touch, and brilliant for us all to have our first lunch around while basking in the sun and looking out over the stunning views. I would highly recommend this apartment due to, a great location, great pool, lots of quality bars and restaurants in walking distance, and then some great routes for running in the mornings!! Response: John, Thanks for providing us with a review, and for coming back as this is the greatest feedback we can ever get. Tim.

“Frontline,sea views modern apartment-it was amazing and fabulous value.” We stayed in tim's apartment in june for 1 week and we loved every minute of it. As we are very regular visitors to calpe we were already familiar with rubino and its location. But on arrival at the apartment we were so impressed with the size of the space and how modern and clean it was. We took our 1.5 year old and the apartment was perfect for him. He loved the baby pool and in the apartment he could wander around safely as there are high balconys.. With amazing views. We would def be back next september-and when we do we will bring your towel!thanks again for everything and sorry its a bit late this testimonial! Response: Dear Trip ADVISOR......I cannot fully respond to this as I cannot see teh whole review???? Tim.
