Myself and two girlfriends stayed at el caleton, apt. no. 6 as we were looking for a beach holiday away from the crowds. It was ideal. The apartment is simply furnished, but lovely. We had all we needed (microwave, nice shower room, oven, fridge and freezer, tv, dvd player)
The best thing about the apartment is its location: a pretty garden with cacti, palms and cats (friendly strays) leads onto the beach. It is calm and good for paddling. around the oher side of the lagoon is a better place to swim.
Within ten minutes walk there is a beach bar which has really nice food, drink and staff, who can speak english if you need them to, and a restaurant called Azzurro which also has really nice staff and delicious canarian and italian food. We recommend the paella. DELICIOUS!
Within a 25 minute walk you are in the village of el cotillo, and there are some nice little streets with tasty restaurants. It can be a bit quiet there, but it was low season. Marealta has delicious tapas and has a lovely vibe, with it being half inside and half outside with cactus' and bushes growing inside it.
