Homes of Spain, Al Andalus Thalassa apartamento P con 2 terrazas con vistas, WIFI

I visited in the low season. The outdoor pools were closed for winter, but there was a very good indoor pool, sauna and solarium, along with pleasant gardens and ball courts. The hillside setting could give you great views down to the coast. The beach and nearest supermarkets are both 2 km away, so having a car or bike is useful. There are assigned covered parking spaces, and the site is secure.

The gardens are lovely and very well maintained, and there’s an adult pool and a children’s pool with a lifeguard. Our apartment was very roomy, with two bathrooms. We stayed for a holiday and plan to visit again over Christmas.

The complex is great, but the apartment I stayed in only had electric heaters, and unfortunately they didn’t do enough to warm the rooms. I wouldn’t recommend it for a winter stay.

There are 553 privately owned apartments in this holiday and residential development. Facilities include two outdoor pools, a heated indoor pool, a gym, sauna, hot tub, tennis and padel courts. Entry is controlled by a gate that needs a key or fob. A concierge at the front gate accepts packages and keeps an eye on the development and visiting workmen.
