Desert Springs is the ideal place to relax and chill out, the Day Spa run by Karen is excellent. For the more energetic there is an excellent golf course. Evenings can be spent at the Crocodile Club which has a friendly atmosphere and childrens play area.
Review by Stefan Czich from Tunbridge Well
The resort is large but never seemed busy. I don’t golf but the greens look wonderful, especially as this part of Spain is classed as Europe’s only dessert. The combination of green fairways & cactus plants reminded me of some very smart resorts in Nevada. The Crocodile Club proved to be a good, relaxed bar and restaurant, with a good range of food, not just a kiddie burger bar. There is also a nice pool, but the one by the apartment is so good we didn’t need to try this alternative.
You will almost certainly want a car unless you spend the whole time in the resort playing golf, swimming & eating in the restaurants. This would be a pity as the beach at Vera is long & sandy. There is a lot to do between here & Mojacar & many good places to eat. Further away you can find deserted beaches, salt flats with wild flamingos, old castles, lively cities, zoos & the scene of many spaghetti westerns. More than enough for another visit, which I would recommend.
Review by Janet Smith from Coventry
Some people might find it a bit isolated (nearest harbour 20mins drive, nearest supermarket 20mins drive), but if you want to do nothing other than relax and/or play golf then it is ideal. No supermarket on site so had to go off site to get basics but very good restaurant for eating out in the evening -excellent if you want a drink with your meal. Enough on menu to eat out every night in the week and have something different each night.
Review by Teresa Grubb from Binley Woods, Nr Coventry
This was our second visit to Desert Springs and again we were not disappointed - The house was excellent and ideally located for the Practice Area and a short stroll to the Croc Club and Club House. The infinity pool was superb - could do with a few more sun loungers though! We would definately recommend this resort and will hopefully be returning next year
