Great Appartment
My husband and I stayed at the appartment from 6th->16th September 2011. The handover/arrangements for dropping off luggage and picking up keys worked perfectly, which meant we could start our holiday immediately and make the most of the last day. The property was clean, well maintained and well furnished with everything we needed for a great holiday. The property is in a fabulous position overlooking the pool to the front and then over towards the sea almost immediately to the right, and to the hills and cliffs in the distance. It's perfectly located for walking to the Balcon Area, (about 5 mins walk), to a wide range of restaurants and shops and for tumbling down on to the Carabeo beach, (at the bottom end of the building, (less than 5 mins walk). In spite of its great, central position, the property was quiet during our stay (the small road at the bottom end of the pool area is pedestrianized). We had a very relaxing holiday, enjoying the pool area and afternoon siestas. The pool is in an elevated position and overlooks the Carabeo Bay. The pool is a decent size; it would take me about 45 mins to do 30 laps around the pool each day. We also borrowed the children's snorkelling gear and had a go with the gear in the sea, which was calm during our stay and we could clearly see little fish in the shallows. We enjoyed that so much, we will buy our own gear for next year .... There are stacks of other places to visit for the day, (Malaga; Granada; Frigiliana, Rhonda, Seville - better as an overnight, to name a few). However, we have done those many times before, so this time just enjoyed the fabulous weather and chilled out and enjoyed Nerja, Carabeo and Burriana. We walked for the paper each morning and had a coffee or breakfast on route, swam, snorkelled, slept, ate out quite a lot! I can't remember the names of the restaurants we ate at, but you will find great views around the Balcon area. The cafe opposite the icecream parlour has a great terrace for breakfast, (Spanish bread/toast with tomato and garlic). Joanney's, opposite the main entrance was great value for money and provides good food and service; it is very popular and busy with locals a lot of the time; they do a fantastic Prawn Pil Pil! I recommend an early evening cocktail at "Cochrans?", the Irish bar off the main square, on the terrace with beautiful sea views, or a sherry at one of the traditional bars off the square, or next to the newsagent, (delicious tapas). Enjoy!
