It was a nice break. We chose to do something different. We enjoyed it but we wouldn't stay there again. The price for the stay was good and we made the most of what we had but it wasn't the best we have rented. We knew it was part a golf complex and though we don't play golf we were interested in staying to view the surrounding areas/villages which we loved, and would stay at.
The public transport was only a mini bus and you couldn't rely on them PLUS if the bus was full you could not get on. They are cheap if you can get on ie; 1.35 euros each. There is also a taxi rank and we made good use of that, also cheap, and cost us about 6/7 euros into La Zenia one way. You can also walk which we did a number of times. It takes about 40 mins from the Plaza to La Zenia Boulevard.
The reasons we wouldn't stay at the Plaza again are because there were no sunbeds provided around the swimming pool so it didn't give any incentive to stay around there in the day.
The apartment itself was ok. I suppose you get what you pay for. I don't want to put anyone off considering staying but it could do with a little paint up, and a few jobs carrying out as it is a little tired. For example, it could do with a new hob on the cooker as the current one is rusty so not inviting to cook on. The tile trim in the kitchen had corners missing that were stuffed with kitchen towel. The kitchen itself was very tired. The bathroom could do with a good paint up and good scrub out, plus there is a shaver socket in the bathroom that could do with replacing as it is broken, The windows at the apartment could do with a good clean. The patio chairs on the balcony are very uncomfortable to sit on so you couldn't spend a few hours sat there. The lights on both balcony's don't work. Also, there was a cassette player rather than a cd player which we thought was now outdated as very few people have cassettes these days. However, the bed was very comfortable and we did sleep well so that is an important factor people look for. Please note there is no wi-fi at the apartment and there is supposed to be wi-fi in the Plaza which is why the owner hasn't got it installed but please note the signal is very poor so most of the time we could not get connected. We enjoyed the entertainment in the Plaza at night when we wanted to spend time there but be aware as you can hear the music from the Plaza in the apartment until all hours. We don't mind noise but anyone who is a light sleeper might not like it.
