Notes on accommodation
Hob/oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster, coffee percolator, washing machine, iron, ironing board, TV, Sky TV, free air-conditioning, heating and ceiling fans, DVD/CD player. The roof terrace is a great place to let children run around, but children must be supervised at all times as the staircase up to the roof is steep.
Accessibility
There are ramps up to the entrance of our apartment building with adequate lift access up to the sixth floor.
Outside
The pool is shared between the occupants of the residential blocks and is therefore quite quiet. There is also a smaller swimming pool in the block next door which residents can also use.
Coast/Beach
The beach is a 5-7 minute walk from the apartment and has a flat promenade stretching for about 3 kms right along the beach front down to the castle, harbour and marina. The beach is deep and long so it hardly seems busy even in the summer months.
Golf
There are some local courses, one of which is a 2 minute drive away, at Playa Serena, but there are many more courses around the Almeria region within a short drive away.
Travel
The nearest airport is Almeria, which is about 25 minutes drive away. Flights also go to Alicante and Murcia - about a 2 - 3 hour drive. Cars can be hired at the airport for collection on arrival and return on departure. Alternatively, take a cab for approx 40 euros each way. The local buses are regular and cost between 1 and 2 euros for local trip. The local supermarket provides everything you need to enjoy a self catering holiday and is only a minute's walk away.
Distances
The apartment is in the heart of Roquetas de Mar. Almeria is the nearest city which is about 30 minutes away by car but if you prefer not to hire a car and take the bus instead, it should cost approximately 2 euros per person each way. If you do decide to go to Almeria, please take in to consideration the siesta time (between 1pm-5pm) when all shops close.
Further details
Roquetas de Mar is an ideal place for walkers/cyclists/golfers/people who enjoy water sports. The Parque Natural is a huge nature reserve where flamingos can be seen living in their own natural habitat.
In the summer months, there is a water park the edge of the town (taxi costs about 5 euros each way), and, of course, the famous bull ring where you can see a bull fight or even a pop concert – see the Tourist Information Office for more details. There is also the Gran Plaza shopping centre where you can do a spot of shopping, have a coffee and watch the World go by or even see a film at the cinema.
There is a huge variety of bars and restaurants in close proximity to our apartment. Most of the Spanish bars serve excellent tapas free of charge when you purchase an alcoholic drink. Don't forget to sample some of the Serrano ham and some Jerez (sherry).
Alternatively, if a quiet night in is what you fancy, there is an excellent supermarket opposite our apartment with a fresh fish counter, deli counter and extensive wine selection.
Booking notes
A booking can be made via e-mail or phone and can be secured with a £150 deposit/breakage bond, which is refundable after an inspection for accidental damage/final clean. The balance will be due 6 weeks prior to departure.
Owner profile
About the owner
We live in England with our 2 children. We have really fallen in love with the relaxing atmosphere in Roquetas and the Spanish culture. We have made many friends in the area and spend most of our holidays there now.
Year purchased: 2007
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We love Roquetas because of its typically Spanish feel. We love eating out at the many bars and restaurants especially the Spanish ones where we can eat tapas whilst drinking Rioja. Roquetas offers something for everyone. We find the area quiet, relaxing and perfect for a family holiday or even a long weekend on our two own without the children. The area is set on flat terrain which makes it a perfect holiday destination for people with children in prams or people in wheelchairs. The area is easily accessible with Almeria airport approx 30 mins drive away.
Unique benefits of the property
Our apartment has views right over the resort, you can see the sea and also the mountains from the balcony. We have 2 balconies one which is a roof terrace and is the full length of the apartment so is perfect for sun-worshippers. Our apartment benefits from the sun all day as it is south-westerly facing. There is a very good supermarket right over the road which is very well stocked with food and wine and even has a fresh fish counter. Having 2 children it was important to have an apartment which is a home from home for us. Our apartment has all that you need to have a relaxing self-catering holiday - cot, Sky TV, DVD player, DVDs, games, books, CDs and a barbeque. The apartment is 5-7 minutes walk to the seafront. The beach is very clean and even has children's play areas along it.
