 El Faro: El Faro Appartments by Geoff Stockdale |
| Posted 10 March 2003 | Overall rating: 8.7 |
In a pleasant area close to Poniente Beach and La Cala Finestrat, these appartments are ideal if you want peace and quiet. There are good restaurants close by, and a short walk away are the spanish beach restaurants of Finistrat. Try a Menu del Dia for 8 Euro's - 4 courses, bread and alioli and a bottle of wine between two. Superb!!
The appartments are clean but ready for a bit of TLC but are very acceptable. We would most definately use them again. No noise in the building at night (March 2003) apart from the Goolies who do a karaoke night several times a week.
The check in and out procedures were very quick and we did not pay a breakage deposit although the coach courier told us that we would have to.
if you want main stream Benidorm the Number 3 bus runs every 10 minutes, 1 minutes walk from the appartments. If you prefer, and we did, use the taxis, which arrive so quickly it is unbelievable. Believe it or not on one occasion the taxi arrived whilst we were still on the phone!! The fare varies between 3 Euro's to the Old Town, 7 Euro's to the Benidorm Palace.
Benidorm Palace is highly recommended - book for the dinner and show at 37 Euro's - 4 course meal, 3 bottles of wine and for only 14 more euro's than the show itself.
