There are many restaurants surrounding the complex, giving
you the choice of not only Spanish but Chinese, Mexican, American and
Italian cuisine, to name but a few, and all within a two minute walk
from our apartment. However,
a gentle stroll into the town will give
you hundreds more to choose from.

stock up on essentials. You will also find Car hire shops, places
where you will be able to book trips, pick up points, money exchange,
