THERE IS NO AIR CONDITIONING. THERE ARE NO ACTIVITIES PROVIDED AT ALL. THERE IS NO POOL BAR OR RESTAURANT. THE RECEPTION OFFICE IS DISUSED AND IS LOCKED UP. KEYS HAVE TO BE COLLECTED FROM LOS LENTICOS COMPLEX 500 YARDS DOWN THE ROAD. Myself and wife stayed here in May 2022. Very quiet location. The apartment was clean and well equipped. 1970's era development. The exterior is a little jaded but the interiors have recently been done up. Getting the key to the apartment is a real cock-eyed arrangement. No instructions from our third party holiday provider (On the Beach Dot Com) at all. We arrived at the complex and yes there is a reception office. It is locked up though and covered in dust and cobwebs when you look through the window. Luckily we managed to find another tourist who told us we had to register our passports and collect the key to our apartment from the reception at another complex 500 yards down the road...Los Lenticos. Some instructions on this would have been nice. I found myself helping some Italian tourists who turned up mid-week not knowing how to get their apartment keys. Apartment Details: Kitchen - A new fridge freezer, microwave, toaster and two ring electric hob. Lots of cupboard space. They provided a new bottle of washing up liquid, a dishcloth and a tea-towel (many thanks.....this was much appreciated). Couple of saucepans, frying pan, two pyrex dishes and limited cutlery provided. No corkscrew, tin opener didn't work, no spatula for frying eggs for example. We always take our own corkscrew/ bottle opener and a decent small chopping knife with us in the hold luggage from hard experience of self-catering. There was a bread knife. Plenty of crockery. No mugs though just cups and saucers. Bathroom - Large bathroom quite modern. Lovely big corner bath in the bathroom with a jacuzzi as part of it with a shower hose over the bath. Hairdryer on the wall. Sink and toilet. Toilet paper provided (two rolls). I asked the cleaning lady for some extra and she said no problem. Two large towels and two hand towels provided. Hot water always on tap. Bedroom - Well not really a bedroom but fenced off from the living room by a freestanding wooden partition which made this a 'studio' apartment. I'd paid the extra fifty odd quid to On the Beach Dot Com to have a one-bedroomed apartment and we ended up with the standard studio apartment (On the Beach you can leave your customer service phone number on answer-machine for so long but I WILL get my fifty odd quid back one way or the other). I tried asking the nice receptionist at Los Lenticos about this and she said that apartment was all they had to offer, the others were all booked up. Two single beds which were quite new. Spotless bed linen. Large wardrobe. Two bedside tables with lamps. Living Room - Settee (that converts into a bed with another pull out bed beneath it), sideboard, flat screen tv with all Spanish language channels. No BBC or any other English channels. Dining table a
