We had a lovely time here, there was no problems obtaining keys and everything was as explained. The pool was well maintained and clean and so were the foyer andd lifts etc. The apartment was tidy and inviting and exactly as the pictures on the website. I would definately come here again, our 4 year old son didnt want to leave!

Review submitted by David from Wallingford (Submitted: 28 Feb 2010)

Satellite TV was not available, although Spanish channels connected after three weeks. No aircon for two weeks, thereafter impossible to set comfortable temperature. Although this apartment is well decorated and equipped we found it cold, damp and dark for a winter rental. It is well situated for the beach and there is a pleasant 20 minute walk into Torrevieja centre.

Owner reply:
The satellite TV was explained, this cannot be guaranteed so I will remove the item from the advert. Here is an explanation.
The problem is that to receive the Sky (British) signal in this part of
Spain you need a 3 to 4 meter dish to pick up the very weak signal and most
communities will not allow this. There are some people that manage to
receive the signal and then re-broadcast it and sell it on it is illegal to
re-broadcast the Sky signal. All you get is mobile phone number and
someone comes round to collect the money. Last year I paid 400 Euro for one
years rental and within the week they had been raided by the police and the
signal was cut off, and this was not the first time this had happened to me.
The air-conditioning had a fault and this was repaired as soon as an engineer was available. 3 small fan heaters were placed in the apartment and these have thermostatic controls and keep a good average temperature.
The weather in Torrevieja up until a few years ago had an average rain fall of 3 days per year. Unfortunately like most places these days there are quite strange and erratic weather conditions. In general it still has very nice weather during the winter, reaching mid 70’s during the day. Unfortunately during their stay the weather was appalling, rain, cold and dark clouds so the comment “cold, damp and dark for a winter rental” is not a fair representation.

El piso es muy bonito y lo tiene todo. La playa está sólo al cruzar la calle y la piscina para después del baño en casa. Lo único es que las vistas son al patio de la piscina no a la playa,pero no hay q ser demasiado exigentes q en veranito seguro q hasta se agradece
