If you are used to 4* Hotel facilities then you know what to do! Otherwise, book this apartment which is large and located in a secure gated complex with friendly residents.
Pedro cannot control the weather and yes whilst staying it poured down for 3 days but when you have a selection of books, magazines and Television with English Channels it made no difference.
There is ample bedding, towels, beach equipment and even a shopping trolley which turned out to be a real godsend. The kitchen is large and well equipped.
There is a lift to the front door.
Both bedrooms are to the front with sea views and 1 of which has direct access to the balcony. The sun rises and stays on the balcony until approx 1 pm. I imagine that the afternoon shade on the balcony would be very welcome in the height of summer.
It was just nice to sit enjoy the view and watch the world go by!
A car is not essential as public transport is to hand including the ‘hop on hop off’ Fuengirola street train whose main stop is just to the left of the complex gates. Ice cream parlours, cafes, restaurants, supermarkets and shops are literally on your doorstep.
Prices are on a par with the UK. We paid anything from 2.40 euros to 4 euros for 2 cups of black coffee and 14 euros to 27 euros for 2 main meals with 1 beer and 1 wine each!
The whole experience from time of booking was that of efficiency.
