Guest comments
Recently been there to stay for 1 week, excellent location, close to the beach, restaurants, bars and shops. The apartment has lots of space with everything you need. There is also a wonderful sunny and spacious roof terrace ideal for sunbathing. Friendly residents within the complex and loved the use of the two pools on site. We will be coming back! - J Mooc 21/9/09

Owner profile
Vera Playa - June 2009
About the owner
I live in Maidenhead and work as an Office Manager for a film lighting company. I have a son and daughter and three grandchildren who keep me on my toes. I hope to retire within the next 5 years and intend to spend at least nine months of the year in Almeria. I am preparing myself by learning Spanish at the moment. I am looking forward to living in Spain and becoming a fosterer for the PAWS animal charity in Mojacar, who do a wonderful job of rescuing and re-homing animals in the area. I also intend to join a few of the many local expat clubs, so expect to have quite a busy and interesting retirement!
Year purchased: 2003
Why the owner chose a home in this location
We looked at a few areas along the Spanish coast but as soon as we arrived in Almeria loved the feel of the place. Not as commercialised as other areas, lovely mountain drives with great scenery, roads which are a pleasure to drive on and not full of traffic, lots of unspoilt beaches and very easy to park, with no parking charges! Still has a very Spanish feel wth lots of Spanish fish restaurants and tapas bars as well as a variety of other nationality cuisines. Ideal for a relaxing holiday to really chill out.
Unique benefits of the property
The house is positioned quite centrally and is within easy walking distance of Garrucha and a short drive from Vera, Vera Playa and Mojacar. There is also a regular bus service from just outside for those without a car. There are also supermarkets, bars and restaurants, all within easy walking distance from the property so you don't have to worry about driving home. The complex has a good mixture of Spanish and British residents and is very friendly. We have met some lovely people there, both residents and holidaymakers. Our property managers are very friendly and helpful and meet all our guests on arrival at the house. They live locally and are always on hand should you need them.
