Jacaranda Apartments Reviews

I booked the holdiay on my own and was paranoid that it would all go horribly wrong. It was the first time me and my boyfried has been on holdiay together. We had an absolute ball. We arrived very early in the morning and the appartments were at the very top of the hill - had great views. The bedroom was a good size and so was the balcony. The kitchen was well equipped if you want to make a meal. We had breakfast in the appartment most day. There was a kettle, a toaster, a fridge, a 2 ring hob and enought pots, frying pans and crockery. There were a couple of broken tiles in the appartment. The pool was ok - to be fair we never used it. There wasn't a bar at the pool but could use the pool at the sister hotel which had a bar.

Jacaranda Apartments has everything for the discerning holiday maker, Karaoke, bingo, unintelligable DJ, ubiquitous Bar-B-Q along with the 'Elvis impersonator',excellent accompaniment to the rare quisine served up, oh and don't forget the cockraoches and hoards of cats trying to gain entry to your apartment at every opportunity.

The aparments are tatty although new kitchen doors had been fitted (by the looks of it by the proprietors' grandson!)one plug fits all-bathroom sink, kitchen sink, bath and bidet, how hygienic!didn't bother asking for another as it took two days to get extra pillows, well I sat pillows I have a mouse mat that's thicker.One good thing is that there is a notice at reception (up the hill at the sister Corona Rosa Ap't's) warning people of eviction for rowdiness but it didn't stop some, What is that compells some to re-arrange their furniture at 4am? The pool? I've seen baths bigger, and don't bother getting up early to reserve one of the 22 sunbeds as the 'residents' don't rise until lunchtime, well you wouldn't after all that furniture arranging would you?

Puerto Rico, a good 25 minutes 'slide' down the hill is loud, brash, smelly, cheap and festooned with timeshare touts however we did find a good restaurant the Puerto Rico Beach Club, not a burger,fry or kebab in sight and the excellent Amadores beach in the next bay.
Would we go again, not unless we'd had a 'CHAV' transplant!!
