Fabulous, comfy time!
August 2010. When we got into the apartment we were initially delighted with the amount of space and light in the rooms. The beds were comfortable and the whole place was spotless. As the holiday progressed we found that the apartment was provided with everything we needed. The air conditioning was a must and made the apartment a relaxing hide away when the weather got too much. The pool was very quiet, even in August we usually had it to ourselves. Some mornings we would run up to the roof and have breakfast or sun bathe, the sun beds are very comfortable.
The beach is a short walk away and, though we had hired a car, we found that we could quite happily have spent the entire holiday sampling the restaurants, lazing on the beach and swimming in the beautiful sea- the children spent a lot of time swimming out to the pontoon. In the evenings after our dinner we wandered up and down the promenade looking at the market stalls.
We loved every minute. The information provided by the owners allowed us to catch the weekly market in Moraira which was great- get there early, it got too hot later on!
Some evenings we went upto the roof and had a barbeque (the mas-y-mas on the promenade has a great butchers at reasonable prices). The roof is the best place to be if there is a storm- saw some amazing lightening from there while we stayed warm and dry with a cool pinot in our mits!
Arenal and furthe down Javea port are lovely places to wander about in and we were glad to find it was a 'family' place. There qwere no lager louts or noisy night clubs but there were some lovely place to sit and have a drink and look out to sea (we liked the bars behind the mas-y-mas, lots of comfy chairs). Avoid the 'All you can eat Argentinian restaurant- we gave up waiting after 1 and a half hours and left hungry)
Further afield we found go-karting, a small fun fair, markets, caves, a restaurant with it's own pool (kids loved it).
The owners provided an excellent service and worked hard to ensure we were well looked after (we couldn't work the TV so they spent time on the phone with us to help us and offered to have someone come over if we needed them to).
Cannot speak highly enough of the accomodation and service. The area feels safe and friendly. There was lots to do and both ourselves and our children (teenagers) had a wonderful time. We would recommend this property to anyone, and have done so to all of our friends.

Owner's Response: Many thanks for your review Lynz.
We are really glad you enjoyed your stay and yes the electrical storms in the distance over the mountains are amazing to view from the roof top terrace. We are so pleased you were able to experience it - it's something to behold.
Regards Sandy and Barry
