Costa Blanca urb Mil Palmeras Palmera Beach apartments
At this time, it is better to look for villas. there are almost no vacationers and prices drop to 300 euros.
We didn’t swim near the apartments because the slope to the beach was too steep and with the children we could only go down once and climb back up the MOUNTAIN to the apartments. Then only by car and only to San Pedro del Pilanar on the Mar Menor. No waves, clean beach with toilets and a promenade with parking lots. Without a car, rest would turn into torment. The urbanization is small but its area is huge, there is only one grocery store, the market is once a week, so a car is a vital thing.
Nearby there is a restaurant WOK is a chain of Chinese buffets with an entrance fee. 9.95 and eat what you want. I was impressed by the presence of seafood there... even Grecotel did not have such a thing. In a word, we ate only outside the betrayals of the hotel.
About shopping: Yelche shoe factories - you can kill 2 days for inspections. I was lucky... we arrived after dinner and did not plan to spend the night there. Therefore, the wallet cost a slight fright. In general, the shoes are of good, high-quality leather and the prices are tempting. Everyone can write Tax Free from 90 euros, but only 10% or 11% seems to be % and only Global Blue. There is also a large shopping and entertainment complex of the same name in La Zenia, where you can also safely kill one or more days of rest... but at least there is beer and food. In general, if you come to shop for shopping malls, there are enough big cities within 50 km of availability (Yelche, Torrevieja, Murcia, Cartagena). I was not very impressed. 6pm. com and similar ones are better at prices, but you can’t take away fittings from women... I had to put up...
We were also at the zoo in Murcia, but we didn’t see an elephant... alas... the children were upset. They went to Africa to see, but there were no elephants and lions. There was a mistake... it was necessary to follow the elephants to Benidorm, but dad was too lazy to steer for 60 km extra in the heat.
About the weather: swimming all day. water 26-27 degrees, the heat at night is such that we slept without breaking at all, and despite the fact that the apartments face north. The last days of October 4-5 were strong waves and wind, but the Mar Menor was calm.
Locals (Imirants from all over Europe) say that they boldly bathe until the end of October, that they say the water cools down for a long time. I agree with them. Sea is warm. All this thanks to the mountain range that surrounds the region. All the rest of the TV set showed in Spain the rains and 15 degrees and here as in Africa.
