Palmview Poolside Heaven in Turquesa del Mar

Het appartement lag heel mooi direct aan het zwembad aan de zonzijde. Daarnaast was het appartement heel compleet ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien! Supermarkt dicht in de buurt

Het zwembad, vanuit de kamer directe toegang tot het terras en zwembad. De zitbank op het terras vond ik minder goed gekozen, had liever een tafel met 4 stoelen gehad zodat men buiten kan ontbijten of s’avonds iets eten.

De sleutel in ontvangst nemen, wij moesten als wij geland waren een sms sturen zodat Agnieska wist hoelaat wij op het appartement aankomen. Bij aankomst niemand te zien, diverse keren gebeld, maar geen gehoor, uiteindelijk Booking.com gebeld en na 2 uur konden wij eindelijk het appartement binnen.

Lo que más nos gustó del apartamento es la piscina que está justo nada más salir por la parte del salón, a pesar de ser agosto la piscina no estaba casi nunca muy llena, hasta las 22 de la noche te puedes bañar , el apartamento está muy nuevo y muy cómodo dos habitaciones y dos baños, tiene aparcamiento subterráneo aunque se aparca bien por la zona.

La distancia andando a la playa con el calor que hace en agosto es un poco lejana y aunque hemos tenido que coger el coche hemos encontrado para aparcar en las playas de Orihuela sin problema.

The apartment itself was lovely, it was in a good location and the pool and outside areas were very clean and clearly looked after. The pool was freezing but that was to be expected as we went in April. The bottle of wine as a welcome was a nice touch.

Unfortunately, despite asking for and being told we could have early check in at 12pm, when we arrived there was no-one to greet us, I rang all the numbers I was given and sent out emails and messages. 2 hours later I got a response from the owners appologising and 30 minutes later someone turned up with a key, let us in and left. We weren't shown how to use any of the appliances (cooker, microwave and oven- it took is a while to work out), we weren't told what the other keys were for and had to work these out for ourselves and the TV took a while to work out too. Depsite notes saying what facilities i.e channels on the tv, glasses in the cupboard there were no instructions on how, we also didn't realise the boiler was switched off until one of us was in the shower and it went cold, eventually we sorted the boiler. We we told to make sure bins were emptied when we left but the bin was full when we arrived and in the bathroom drawer was used kitchen roll and the toilet had been used and not flushed. The glasses and cutlery also all had to be washed before use as the drawers were dirty and full of crumbs and we had the clean spilt coffee off the side of the kitchen and floor when we got there. When checking out, we were told just to leave the keys on the table.
