Apartment 100m to Beach With All Day Sun Terrace Overlooking Gardens and Pools - Apartment N1 Sleeps 4 (2 Bedrooms)

We had a fabulous 2 week stay in the White Pearl Beach apartments. The location, gardens and properties were very good. We had a week in a two bed apartment and a week in the penthouse, which was amazing. The weather was brilliant mostly in the high 20's and there is an abundance of restaurants and bars to frequent. Two very good supermarkets in the local square, which were only a 10 minute walk away.

The apartment is extremely spacious with a lovely terrace overlooking the immaculate grounds. On arrival we were lucky enough to meet the owners who were very obliging and allowed us to leave our luggage well before check-in time. Everything we needed was supplied and the apartment proved to be the best we have ever stayed in. It was lovely to leave the beach and in minutes be back in quite literally an oasis. I have no hesitation in recommending this apartment to anyone.

Very kind owner who was around on our stay and apartment was really clean and well kept. looking to return this year.

Summary:

Would recommend this property, and others on this complex.

Would stay here again.

Pros:

Excellent location within beautiful, well-maintained complex. Reach the pools within a few seconds. Heated pool is a massive bonus, especially for children swimming in slightly cooler months.

Very safe complex with 24-hour security.

Two lovely beaches with beach clubs, restaurants, facilities, etc a five minute walk away.

Grocery shops within five-ten minute walk. You don't need a hire car. We've been to this area for several years now, and have found this appartment and location the best so far. In future years we'd consider hiring a car to do more activities like golf, water park, zoo/animal attractions, etc. For a family with young children, or couples wanting to relax by the sea or pool, a car isn't essential.

Fantastic, sunny patio area. Lovely for outdoor meals.

Two bathrooms with baths and showers - great for cleaning off after trips to beach and pool.

Dishwasher, washer, dryer, plenty of space for clothes. Owners provided travel cot at no extra charge. There are two sofa beds, so convenient for sleeping a family (we are two adults, two children and a toddler). Easily space for a baby or child in dressing area, lounge or master bedroom.

Cons:

As previous reviewers have mentioned, it is probably the most self-catering place you will have stayed! Yes, it would be helpful to have a few cleaning products in the property and basic cooking essentials. Had my baby still been crawling, I would have needed to clean the floor on arrival.

Not 100% wheelchair friendly. There are a few steps (this was manageable with a pushchair).

Having said this, I feel the benefits of the property far outweigh this comparatively small inconvenience. We would stay here again and recommend this appartment to our family and friends. It is useful to know beforehand that you need to bring/buy: hairdryer, basic cooking and cleaning products, a few dishwasher and laundry tablets, extra linens, including tea towels.

The owners were quick to respond to queries and very easy to book with. Thank you for a fantastic family holiday!

We have just returned from a 10 day stay at this apartment in Elviria Marbella. The area was lovely with beach just a few minutes walk from apartment and with supermarket, bars and restaurants all within close proximity.

The booking was made simple by the owners who were quick to respond to queries and were generous to allow a late check out on day of departure. The apartment is spacious and quiet. However, we could not write this review without being honest about the cleanliness and general maintenance of the apartment. On arrival we found a dying cockroach on the kitchen work surface ( traps had been placed about the kitchen, one on the kitchen work surface). This was an immediate off put and our first trip out was to purchase disinfectant from supermarket so that we could clean all surfaces. We later found a live cockroach in the bathroom. The apartment appeared grubby and tired with much need of attention. This is such a shame as the apartment itself is in lovely grounds with mature gardens and lovely bird life. We would return to the area but not to this apartment.

In view of this, we have given this apartment a generous 3 stars.
