Isla Canela (The Isle of Cinnamon) is the real Spain, a place where Spanish and Portuguese people holiday. The beach which faces the apartment has 5 miles of empty white sand lapped by the Atlantic Ocean. There is a beautiful promenade which extends for most of it's length. Along here are luxury hotels which welcome non residents and the restaurants and facilities are excellent. The climate is exceptional and is perfect to enjoy Golf all year round. Isla Canela has a golf club in an unbeatable setting, surrounded by canals, as well as orange, olive, lemon and pomegranite trees. Just 4km away over the short bridge to the mainland lies Ayamonte which has blossomed from a small village into a busy town with many restaurants serving delicious local dishes. From here you can catch the ferry which runs every 30 minutes to the Portuguese Algarve. The crossing is calm across the River Guadiana and the picturesque journey takes just 20 minutes.

Accessibility
The complex was built in early 2000 and is fully compliant with wheelchair regulations. You can therefore access all area with the use of a wheelchair.
Outside
In the grounds is a good sized communal family pool which never seems to become too busy. There is a children's playground consisting of slides, seesaws and swings as well as a sand pit in the communal grounds. This is located in a shady part of the beautifully kept gardens. There is also a baby/children's pool for the use of guests. Please note that the pools can be closed in the cooler months.
There is also a dedicated and reserved secure underground car parking space right next to the lift for the apartment.
A concierge is on site every day to deal with any queries or maintenance issues. The complex is secure and not accessable by non residents, although security is not an issue on Isla Canela.
Right outside the wrought iron attractive gates is the Marina with it's International restaurants and across the water, just a 10 minute walk from the apartment is Punta Moral, a typical "pueblo blanco" with charming restaurants as well as shops and quayside bars.
Coast/Beach
If you walk out of the apartment complex and walk across the roundabout and walk alongside the sand coloured apartments you will reach the promenade in 2 to 3 minutes. The beach is in front of the promenade and this extends for miles and miles. Sunbeds and parasols are for hire at a small charge on the beach or you could take your own. There are 2 beach bars selling drinks and snacks on this part of the beach. Beyond the beach lies the Atlantic Ocean.
Golf
Isla Canela has a golf club, 5 minutes drive from the apartment in an unbeatable setting, surrounded by canals, as well as orange, olive, lemon and pomegranite trees.
The following golf courses are within a 30 minute drive of Isla Canela: Castro Marim, El Rompido, Quinta de Ria, Quinta de Cima, Benimor.
Within an hour's drive you can access the main Portuguese Algarve courses such as San Lorenzo, Quinta De Lago, Vale de Lobo and Vilamoura.
Travel
The nearest airport is Faro and this is just a 40 mins drive. Seville is a 1 hour drive from Isla Canela. You can fly to Seville as an alternative to Faro and maybe enjoy a break in this most historic and Spanish City before enjoying the peace and relaxation of Isla Canela, just over 1 hours drive away. You can fly from Liverpool, Stansted and Dublin direct to Seville with a low cost budget airline whose fares start from as little as £5.00 return plus taxes. You can also fly to Jerez or Malaga.
Distances
You can fly to Faro with many, airlines, scheduled, chartered and low cost from most airports in the UK and Ireland.
The distance from Faro to the apartment is around 65 kms and the easy journey takes about 45 mins.
Passing through Ayamonte on the way before reaching Isla Canela this town is well worth visiting for its piazzas, reataurants, shops and tapas bars. You can catch the ferry from here to Portugal and visit Altura which is a typically Portuguse seaside town with a great waterpark.
Further details
I can recommend the restaurant, Chiringuito de Antonio V, which is situated in the Marina, no more than a 2 minutes walk from the apartment. It opened in November 2005. For something different, there is an excellent Lebanese restaurant located opposite the 14th Century church right in the centre of Ayamonte. The food was delicious when I ate there in October 2006.
There are several banks in Ayamonte and an ATM in the marina.
Just 4kms away over the short bridge to the mainland lies Ayamonte which has blossomed from a small village into a busy town with many restaurants serving delicious local dishes. From here you can catch the ferry which runs every 30 minutes to the Portuguese Algarge. The crossing is calm across the River Guadiana and the picturesque journey takes just 20 minutes. From here you can explore resorts of the Algarve.
