We stayed here for a week in early April 2013. The complex is beautifully located with two pools, one of which is an all year round indoor pool which was very useful on the cooler days. The golf course is pristine and makes for a lovely bank drop and gives a wonderful feeling of open space. It's also just 10 mins from the supermarket, town, beaches etc. The apartment itself is spacious, comfortable, very clean and well laid out. It has all the facilities you need- dishwasher, microwave, oven, fridge, satellite tv, 6 foot bed etc.

The apartment was absolutely perfect for us, I was especially grateful for the dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer! We stayed in most evenings and I thought the kitchen was extremely well equipped for cooking and had everything that I needed.
The terrace was a great size and very safe for the little one. The bed was extremely comfortable! It was very peaceful and quiet and we found the residents to be very friendly, they even lent us some toys for Zara. The communal gardens and pools were absolutely stunning. The apartment was beautifully decorated, and I found it to be very relaxing. I cannot find fault with it at all and I will definitely be re-booking for next year.
