Enquire nowThe Costa de Almeria region
Costa Almeria has the benefit of the lowest rainfall and the highest sunshine records for the whole of Spain. Together with the superb beaches, there are the attractions of the wild Natural Park of Cabo De Gata, the historic town of Granada is a few hours drive, and there is even skiing at Pradollano in the Sierra Nevada mountains, less than 2 hours away.
The Vera Playa / Al Andalus Hills area
A variety of attractions lie within a short distance. Visit the original set used for filming A Fistful of Dollars in the 1960’s at Mini-Hollywood, go horse-riding or trekking, scuba diving or water skiing, or spend the day splashing around at Vera Playa AquaPark.
Slightly further afield the typically Spanish town of Vera (6km) is an extremely popular market town, which has both history and shopping in abundance. To the south, Garrucha is a bustling fishing port with a host of shops and restaurants, whilst a little further along the coast Mojacar offers a more traditionally British concept of a Spanish resort. Inland, the picturesque Moorish hill village of Mojacar Pueblo is well worth a visit. All the local towns have fiestas and market days.

Peter and Mandy, apartment owners, are really friendly and very efficient, we were greeted by an English couple, Dave and Anita who looked after us very well when we arrived. Nothing was any trouble even down to giving directions and advice during our stay. The apartment was ideal for us although would easily accommodate a family of four. We woke every morning in the peaceful complex and enjoyed our breakfast on the balcony terrace over looking the swimming pool and communal gardens it was beautiful. The complex is situated just a few km from the main beaches and holiday attractions in garrucha and mojacar and the water park. We had a fantastic time and will definitely return this year and next. The apartment had everything you would need even down to Lilo's and a bucket and shade for the little ones. Thank you Peter and Mandy again for sorting this out for us soo quickly and efficiently, very professional and friendly. All the best for the rest of 2012 hope you speak soon to book again. Response: Thanks for that lovely review, we are pleased that you found our apartment appealing, and look forward to welcoming you back next year. |

A good apartment on a nice development. Apartment overlooks the pool, and is walking distance to beach. Complex very quiet when we visited (late Sept). Walking distance to good bar and restaurant, and 5 mins drive to reasonably new Mercadona which makes catering easy. The apartment is not cramped, but outside space is limited. However the air conditioning to both bedrooms and lounge would be very useful in the summer. |
