Before I start this review, I would just like to warn everybody that muggers alley is alive and kicking. I have just returned from 2 weeks and there were two attacks during this time. This is not hearsay as I could see the police and ambulance from the apartment.
Please do Not go to this area after dark.
Back to the review, overall I couldn't fault the first week here, great company, great fun, great place. The second week however was a different story.
When we booked we were told that these were family apartment's and as I said for the first week it was. Why they allow so many hen and stag party's I do not know, but the noise, the abuse, the arguing, the fighting etc just wasn't exceptable. Didn't spoil the holiday but it did make it less enjoyable.
A couple of gripes I would have is the fact you have to pay 1.5 euro for the sunbeds at the pool, and 50 cents to watch the television. Also there is no air con but fans are available...for a fee.
Overall, nice place to stay, just the luck of the draw when you go.

Very clean and tidy, TV's had Sky sports, Tiny Pops, Channel 5, and a couple of foreign channels. We did make use of it or to be precise my four year old watched Tiny pops whilst waiting for tea to be served.
The Bar was a bit expensive compared to the local bars with happy hours.
Our Bedroom overlooked the so called muggers alley, we neither heard or saw any problems, people used it as a shortcut at all times of the day. I was more offended by the typical over the top complaints of some of our fellow Brit guests, after contractors severed the water main leaving the upper floors without water all day.
We took up the offer to shower in the reception shower rooms, and went out for the day, but the comments of some guests towards the reception staff was childish, and sadly typical of some Brits abroad. They were the only thing ruining these very good apartments.
Although we did hire a car for the two weeks, and used them as a base more than a home. I would definately go back, but not for a few years we have done Benidorm to death after two visits.

Well what can I say, I loved these apts we booked on allocation on arrival. We were on the 25th floor&it was like the penthouse. The balcony was huge with an amazing view over looking the sea. There was two of us but it was massive.
We didn't eat much there apart from the odd toastie but it was nice. The kitchen had everything you need to have a self catering holiday but if you are cooking beware it gets boiling because there was no air cond.
No entertainment but we weren't bothered as we were at the square every night.
The beach was only a ten minute walk away but loads of shops to keep you busy on your way.

Can't fault it, not too far from the bars, no noise at night, muggers alley was even quiet!!! The rooms are basic, but clean, no entertainment, pool area was fine, pool itself was clean, only used the bar once, overall a great place to stay and I would stay there again

The apartments were spot on. The staff were great.
The location was ideal for us because it was only a 10 min walk to the square where we spent most of the holiday.
Will certainly be going back there.
Also has a great bar.

The apartment we stayed in was very clean and tidy. The staff service for the apartment was excellent. The location wasn't bad within 300 yards from the nice sandy beach. The reception and bar staff were excellent particularly paul the barman who was very helpful. There was no entertainment except from the surrounding hotels. Yes i would return to these apartments but i would like to see the pool beds free not paid for.

The hotel was very clean and we got clean towels and bedding three times and we only stayed a week.
The apartment was a bit far from the beach but it was nice. Barry our hotel rep was very helpful and gave us a good deal on Aqualandia.
The entertainment was particularly rubbish but we were out most nights so that didn't bother us.
I would recommend this package to any one.

These are the best appartments we have visited in benidorm!!!! We have stayed here 3 times and would be stayin again this year, only there is no room :-(
Overall the pool is fantastic and very clean, the rooms are very spacey and towel change was excellent!!!!!
The bar (paradise corner) was a pleasure to visit we found staff there brilliant especially JAMESSY who we made friends with and found nice straight away, he is a credit to the pariso 10!!! Why put on entertainment with enough to keep the kids happy all the time and friendly staff who will chat, this is all the entetainment you need!!
The muggers alley doesnt exisit it is quiet all the time and the three times we have stayed here I have never seen any body learking about. Infact the whole of my family used this as a short cut home every night, and considerin we have young children they were safe at all times!!
I would definatly reccommed this to others with or without children!!!
The whole of a family are gutted though that we cant return this year, however will be doing so next year!!
I rate this 10/10 it is a credit to benidorm :-)
Well done to every body responsible and a part of these appartments, you have done a brilliant job!!
Lastly I would just like say everybody getting stayin here and have the wonderful holiday that wehave experinced 3 times!!

Very clean, kitchen was well appointed with fridge freezer, mini cooker, toaster, kettle, four beds [technically], big balcony. Two single beds and a sofa bed that split in two.
Only one real gripe...no airconditioning, it was boiling at night so we had to leave the patio doors open, very noisey[dependant on floor] mainly from the Caballo del Oro across the street and people who think the word England has three syllables.
Four lifts...two go to the odd numbered floors,two go to the even numbered floors and can be slow...stairs are an option..but if your on level 28???
Two pools a kiddies and a larger one for adults/teens, 1.50 euro per day for a sunbed,no pool bar.We paid

we went with thomson's on a allocation on arrival basis and have to say there were six of us in our party and non of us were dissappointed with these apartments. Very clean, main service with clean towels three times and we were only there a week. the appartment was very clean and well equipped. The staff at reception were very helpful and the thomsons rep very helpful. We had nothing noise wise, we have stayed in the middle of new benidorm and have heard motor bikes roaring all times of the day and night whereas here we heard nothing, it was so peaceful and would definately go back again. Pool area and pool lovely.
