Great communication leading up to our holiday with host. Richard is very accommodating. Location is fine for an older family group. Just not lively enough for the 16-25 age group. Beach a short bus trip away. Air conditioning in all rooms which was essential. We had a very pleasant fortnight.

Very nice relaxing stay
The property is about 10-15 minutes from the airport in a taxi. Rich gave us a tonne of information beforehand, highlighted maps showing us where everything is, pictures, local services etc. Property is large with very good Air Con in all the bedrooms. Everything was clean and there are plenty of extras available such as beach towels, chairs, sunbeds etc to use. We did not have a bad meal the whole time we were there and there are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance. There is a little train that goes on a loop around the area every hour which was our main method of transport. There are a couple of well stocked smaller supermarkets you can walk to and a few larger options you can get the train to. The only thing we would have done differently if we did it again is hire a car. Getting a taxi was almost impossible, we hardly saw one the whole time and the numbers posted around town do not answer. The one firm we used on our return journey was not interested unless it was an airport transfer. But we managed. We also used the bus service to go into Alicante on one of the days. Lovely property, great host, great location, 100% recommend.

Nice house and great host.
My family and myself really enjoyed our time in Gran Alacant. The property catered for all our needs and was a good base to visit Alicante and other places along the coast . The pool was set in nice gardens nearby where you could find a quiet place to soak up the sun or sit in the shade of a tree . Any minor issues were swiftly dealt with by Richard who was a great host throughout our stay . The house itself was clean and had everything you could need for a family holiday . The air conditioning worked beautifully to keep us cool when it was too hot . There are some nice restaurants nearby if you look about and a trip to Alicante is a must and it's very cheap on the bus !

Nice house,Well equipped,Ideal location,Plenty of sun on roof terrace
Richard,the owner spot on with communication. The house has everything you need for your stay. Sunbeds+seats all with covers and a table on the roof terrace that gets plenty of sun. Table+4 chairs on front porch. Tv, free wi-fi, air-con, Oil filled radiators for cold nights [ off season ] Access to a shared pool which is just around the corner. Bars shops money exchange,mini market and eateries are only 2 minutes walk away. "la piedra" one of the busiest restaurants is highly recommended, Booking advised. Not far to other bars and eateries. Bus stops are not far to go to santa pola, alicante or the G A shopping centre.

Gran Alacant offers clean beaches, friendly local bars & superb communal pool.Everything only 5min
We visited Santa Pola East and walked into the town along the boardwalk. This is only a 10 min drive from the house, which was clean and tidy on our arrival. Kitchen had all we needed plus extras. Owners arranged taxis for us.

Many extras in this clean family home. Pool only 100 yards and great sea views
Easy access to the house on arrival with a key code for key box as we arrived very late. The home was clean and tidy. We loved the mini tourist train that takes you to the beach and around the community. We hope to return soon

2 weeks in Gran Alacant
We have recently returned from a 2-week visit to Richards house in Gran Alacant. Considering it was at the end of Sept- beginning of October we were pleasantly surprised by the good and hot weather, with only a little rain and wind. The house was comfortable and our visit was well supported by Richard and his local team. The house was quite spacious and the wifi and uk tv channels worked well and were a bonus! There are plenty of good restaurants and bars in easy walking distance, and a local train and buses to get around if you don't have a car (and hiring a car is not strictly necessary as it's fairly close to the airport and a taxi would do). There are a couple of supermarkets within walking distance, and also a weekly market which is great for local produce and tons of other stuff! The beach is lovely and the water clean but it's a long walk and up a very steep hill coming back - I didn't attempt it, but my son did! You can get there easily by car, bus and the little local train. Nearer at hand is the swimming pool which is just a minutes walk away - it's quite small but well maintained and clean. All in all, a good trip.

close to all amenties,owener very helpful,property clean and tiday
the property was as described on the web. We found the property clean, a few bits and pieces needed sorting out but it was the end of the season, the property manager was very helpful. The customer service was excellent/ Yes would recommend the property. The train and bus was very near and convenient to get to places. The bars and restaurants was within walking distance, the ones we visited were very nice. The property just needed a little upgrading, but heard that was going to happen in the next few weeks.

Un bel emplacement et une vue de la terrasse magnifique 😊
Les informations sur la maison sont correctes et justes . La réactivité de Richard pour la réparation des lits fut très positive. Nous avons pu passer trois semaines paisibles car c est un quartier résidentiel où le bruit excessif n existe pas. Et la piscine de la résidence est adéquate et vient compléter la plage qui se situe à 10 minutes en voiture.
