The positive points are that the pools are very clean. and the beach is great for swimming(quite a hike down steps to get there) However,Customer service was very poor.We arrived after dark,no one showed us to our apartment.there was no outside light so we struggled to find the keyhole.The tennis court charge was 5Euro per hour for a broken net... more

We stayed here for a week (8 Oct 09-14 Oct 09) to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. We travelled with First Choice. The apartment complex, although still undergoing some building work, was lovely. There are three pools, a restaurant, a bar and a shop. The complex is also just a short (very steep) walk to the beach. We found the... more

Despite these negatives the... more

The situation close to the sea is very pleasant and the profusion of spring flowers on the cliffs was a sight to behold. The Alfagar... more
