My family (wife, daughter and granddaughter (age 30 months)) and I have just spent a very enjoyable weeks vacation in this recently refurbished apartment. Access to the apartment from the pavement is via a small number of steps. The apartment was very comfortable and spotlessly clean with every amenity that we required including washing machine & dishwasher. It was well equipped with crockery, cutlery, towels & bedlinen. The bathroom contained an excellent shower unit over the bath and we always had a good supply of running hot water. The TV in the lounge offered a wide choice of both British & European channels including the Sky Sports channels.
On arrival, we were met by the owners agent who was very helpful in informing us of the facilities and also
provided a brochure which listed info about the La Manga Club Resort including the various restaurants etc. Prior to our arrival we had been provided with the telephone numbers of the owners agents for use in contacting them about our arrival time (we phoned them as we were leaving the airport) and in case we needed them to resolve anything for us during the week.
We had previously visited La Manga two years ago and by chance stayed in the Bellaluz community although not in this same apartment. Because we knew its facilities, when we looked to book this time we searched for apartments in this same community. One of the reasons for this was the quality of the leisure area which contains not only a good sized swimming pool with a plentiful supply of sunbeds/loungers but also has a separate children's pool area in a nice shaded area together with a small play area containing swings, slide etc. There is a card access system in operation to this leisure area and these were provided by the owners agent. Sometimes the entrance gate is left open but it is always best to carry them with you. It is no more than a couple of minutes walk from the apartment.
Bellaluz also has a commercial area, again no more than a couple of minutes walk from the apartment, with a number of bars/restaurant, supermarket (stocks English newspapers) and other shops. This area appeared to be more popular with holidaymakers than it was on our last visit.
For those not considering hiring a car, the main commercial area is about 2kms away. Downhill getting there uphill coming back.
