Es la segunda vez que estamos en estos apartamentos, ya que la primera vez nos gustaron mucho. Los apartamentos son nuevos, modernos y en muy buen estado. La ubicación inmejorable y con vistas al mar. La limpieza es correcta. Las camas son cómodas y se duerme bien. El menaje es mas que suficiente. La cocina está equipada con lavavajillas, horno, microondas, lavadora y secadora. Tiene dos baños, uno con bañera y otro con ducha, bastante amplia. El único pero que se le puede poner es el que tengas que dejar una fianza tan elevada (300 euros) y que tengas que ir hasta un hotel situado un pelín lejos para buscar las llaves. Pero bueno, no cuesta nada ir en coche. En cuanto al precio, varía muchísimo según las fechas. En Agosto uno ya se puede imaginar....pero en Junio, Julio y Septiembre son mas asequibles.

“The potential to be great”

We've just returned from a week staying at Las Palmas V11. We arrived late (thanks Avis) but were accommodated without a problem. There are a couple of minor gripes about check in/check out that are worth mentioning. 1. you have to check in at a hotel that is about half a mile away from the apartment. Not a problem for us as we had a hire car but if we'd arrived by other means I can see this being a royal pain... 2. you have to hand over a cash deposit of 300 euros. This was returned without a problem but we now have 300 euros we don't need. On arrival we were really impressed. The apartment is spacious and decorated in a modern style. It seemed to have all that we could need and a great little balcony overlooking the beach. First impressions are spot on. Location wise, this apartment sits on the beach front road, between the main area of Salou and the neighbouring town. There's no break in the seafront buildings but they don't reach further back than a couple of streets at this point. As a result this area is less densely populated on the beach. Having said that, I never got the impression that Salou was ever busy - even over the weekend. Great for a relaxing time. On the downside, there is a bit of a walk if you're after anywhere decent to eat. The general ambience is laid back, a bit too much sometimes - a lot of places were closed early morning and early evening when we were looking to eat, but I guess that's the general Spanish timetable. This seems to be a destination for Spanish and French tourists with none of the genuine British pub and fried breakfast nonsense that puts me off some other Spanish resorts. So far so good, but here are some of the points that I felt let the place down; 1. although decorated in a modern style some of the furniture and fittings were worn or broken. Eg: mirror with a sharp chipped corner, spa bath with loose trim around the outlets, stain on the couch... 2. this extended to the pool area on the roof. Missing and chipped, sharp tiles. Broken drain covers that I cut my foot on 3. no wi-fi. Perhaps not an issue if you want to get away from it all but it made finding out what was around us more difficult than it could have been 4. and following on from that - having stayed at many self catering apartments before, it has been really handy to access an information pack that is generally made available. Flyers for restaurants and attractions etc Even a guest book with suggestions from previous customers. 5. there's a daily charge for parking which I think is a bit cheeky given the cost of the apartment 6. Noise. The road out the front can be noisy at times but this didn't bother me. However, I could see it putting some people off. What did bug me was noise from neighbouring apartments late at night which I guess the rental company have little control over The bottom line is that we liked the apartment and my daughter (8) and I had a great time in the pool and the sea but ultimately the apartment falls a bit short with regard to both what it could make of itself and also what I'd expect for the money. Having reread the review before posting, I feel I've been a bit negative. We really did enjoy ourselves. If there was a grade between "average" and "very good", I'd have selected that.
