GREAT NEWS.......... Our apartment has met all the strict requirements of the local licensing authority in Almería and is now full licensed for rental purposes. In addition to this we have now achieved the much coveted TripAdvisor 'Certificate of Excellence' award which makes us very happy and proud indeed and is a reward for our efforts to correct previous problems which we promised to do and did because as we pledged in the reviews replies section and after a thorough inspection we have recently renewed the fridge freezer, the Samsung washing machine has been repaired with the correct Samsung spare part and it worked perfectly for 2 weeks during our stay, we have also purchased 3 new white sunloungers (they only had 3!) the others are still fine though plus the ceiling fan is repair...GREAT NEWS..........

The apartment is now in great condition after our inspection visit and in future our guests will be met on arrival and departure by our English and Spanish speaking agent who now handles management of the rentals on our behalf plus we are always available by phone or email for any queries or problems if you encounter any! There is a folder too in the apartment detailing how everything works ie. TV, WIFI, Washing machine, cooker, aircon etc. and literature regarding some local attractions.
