3 bedroom house in Mar de Cristal, Costa Calida
Quiet Location
Gated Secure Communal Pool, 2-3 Mins Walk to Beach
Sleeps 6 (3 Bedrooms)

‘Albatross 3’ is the jewel in the crown of Mar de Cristal which is arguably one of the best and least spoilt beach resorts in Spain. Largely unspoilt by mass UK tourism this resort is lovely and peaceful outside the main season but bursts into life in July and August when the Spanish start to holiday. The crystal waters of the Mar Menor are a short walk away with its warm calm and shallow waters being ideal for young children. On the other side of the peninsula (5-10 minute drive) is the Calblanque national park with truly fantastic beaches fronting the Mediterranean sea. While Mar de Cristal has a limited number of restaurants and bars the nearby (2km) small town of Los Belones has a very wide choice of bars, restaurants, shops and banks. The property is 10 minutes drive from the famous La Manga Club resort and a similar distance from the beautiful fishing port of Cabo de Palos. A little further afield in the historic town of Cartagena with its Roman ruins.

Guest comments
The first floor master bedroom with en suite gave my wife and I excellent privacy while the ground floor bedrooms and bathroom was great for our elderly parents. Your photos and description really understate the quality of your house. I will certainly book your house again and would like to book it in September for my daughters honeymoon. Mark Iredale, Keighley.
I could not believe the equipment that you have provided in your house. My husband and I spent a week with my brother and wife and hardly ever left the property and pool area. It was truly a relaxing holiday. Susan Dennis, Wetherby.
What a fantastic property to visit out of season. We spent a week in February and found the property and area ideal. Although the resort was very quiet the restaurants in Los Belones and the Sky TV were great were great for the evenings and the local horse riding, go karting, countryside and historic local area filled our days. We will certainly be back. Sarah, Harrogate.
