SPECIAL OFFER from 9/23 to 10/1

The hosts were very helfull. The property is near to the beach as described however it is up a steep hill. The property is spacious with a modern bathroom and tv. The double bed is very small and very hard and we found it impossible to sleep on the same bed. I also had to use ear buds at night as the property is within 100mts of dual carriiageway whivh is busy day and night. There is a nice large terrace which gets the sun in the morning only. There were sunbeds laid out but we were unable to use these as there is no real sun on the terrace. The kitchen is poorley equipped and f frying pans are imposdinle yo clean

Thete is a shared singke plug point for the toaster ann microwave. Washing machime was handy. The airconditioning in the livong room is very useful but as soon as you use it water drains to a bucket on the balcony. We were emptying the bucket twice a day. We were advised on arri al of this. The shower room whilst mofern remains waterlogged for hours after use as the fall on the shower is insufficient. The holiday was saved by the pool area. Owners were nice. But would not stay again mainly fue to noise a d the uncomfortable small bed.

We had a lovely week in altea with the seafront easily accessible from the apartment. The apartment was plenty big enough for what we needed it to be. Isabel was easy to contact and responded quickly. The double bed however was small and hard which meant sleep was not as restful as we would have liked. The pool was fantastic and a great way to cool off in the heat.

There was an issue with us being locked out due to a deadbolt moving over the door after the door was shut but Isabel responded to this quickly.

The main downside of the apartment is it's proximity to a very busy main road. The noise although no extreme was constant which meant sitting on the very large balcony was slightly spoiled.

Overall though this is a good place to stay - thanks Isabel

When we arrived to the apartment we were delighted to see it was just as pictured and even better! The apartment was nicely decorated and the large terrace was an added bonus! There were two sun loungers and a dining table for four. The main road is about 150 meters away from the terrace side, but there are other houses and trees between so the traffic noise was not that bad.

The apartment has two bedrooms. The main bedroom has a narrow 130-140 cm wide double bed. The other bedroom has two separate beds which are wide (perhaps 90 cm), but a bit short for our 185 cm son. The kitchen is nicely equipped and we did not have any problem cooking most of our meals there. There is also a washing machine out in the kitchen terrace.

The apartment complex has four floors and this apartment is one floor up from the pool side and two floors up from the terrace side. There are some 15 apartments with mainly local residents so the pool was usually empty during day times. The pool is excellent with very warm water, our junior did enjoy it very much.

It is really just about 150-250 meters down to reach the beach and the nearest supermarket, so the location is very good. You will appreciate the location even more when you walk up to visit the old town as you are already quite high to start with.

Please note that Altea beaches are rocky beaches with rather sharply deepening waters so they are not good for small children. We did drive to Calp where there is a perfect sandy beach for children, much better than Benidorm. During our stay early July the big waves were also a problem on some days. None of the beaches in Benidorm, Altea or Calp have any wave breakers so if the sea is rough the waves are big.

Communication with Isabel was very easy, she speaks excellent english. She was very helpful all the way and responded to emails very fast. Her parents did give the keys and came to change the gas when it run out. They were very nice, but did speak only a few words of english.

The wifi did work nicely. We did use AC during the nights and it worked great even though the cooling unit is only in the living room. There are ceiling fans in the bedrooms and when we kept the fans on and doors open the cold air did circulate around the apartment.

The apartment really had all we need so we would most likely choose this same apartment if we come back to Altea some day. Thank you Isabel!

The apartment had everything you need and was adequately furnished. However it is close to 2 very busy roads which spoiled it slightly for me as I am a light sleeper. Lots of bars restaurants ect nice and quiet

Very comfortable apartment in a great location ideal for exploring the surrounding area.

Handy nearby supermarket Masymas and plenty of restaurants all within easy walking distance. If you have a car there is a garage. Also, there is a nearby bus stop and train station. Excellent WiFi we really enjoyed our stay.
