Charming 1st floor maisonette in the heart of the Costa Blanca. We present to you a newly-renovated 2-bedroom apartment with a front terrace and a stunning roof terrace with sea views. The property is part of the Altomar 2 complex, in the middle of Gran Alacant, conveniently located about 10 minutes’ drive from Alicante airport, about 20 minutes from the city of Alicante and about 30 mins. from Orihuela Costa & its golf courses. The closest blue-flag beach, El Carabassi, with golden sand is only a 3-minute drive. Los Arenales beach, where you can practice water sports, is also just a few minutes away. There are 3 lovely communal swimming pools of salt water in the complex you can choose from, one of them with space for ball games. The roof terrace in the property comes complete with a practical portable BBQ, garden furniture with a swing and a convenient retractable sun shade canopy, all on artificial grass flooring for your comfort; perfect to enjoy your favorite drink while chilling out watching the beautiful sunsets. The apartment itself is fully-furnished, with all amenities. It has an stylish American-style kitchen with a new boiler, bathroom with complimentary toiletries, lounge with a new sofa-double bed, and two double bedrooms, all with laminated flooring. Sleeps up to five people. Baby minicot available upon request (as per picture). The side terrace comes with table and chairs. There are plenty of bars, shops and restaurants around the property. Free parking space is available in the complex. There is also a cute little train that drives you up and down the hill to the shopping centre. So what are you waiting for to have a nice break from the cold and rainy weather? Come and make the most of the winter sun in Alicante with beautiful weather most of the year & relax in our welcoming apartment! Please, note this is a non-smoking property. Also, please read important note in the host information section!

I regard myself as a friendly, hands-on person, always available to help a friend. Having been a BA air hostess for most of my adult life, I am well-travelled and have been able to expand my mind, learn about other cultures and realities, and especially to be grateful for what I have. :) I'm available on my phone if you need any help! In emergencies please call 112 or press SOS on the alarm panel by the front door. ***IMPORTANT NOTE*** although this is quite a safe area, with low criminality rate, there is an alarm system installed in the property with Securitas Direct (Verisure in the UK) for the safety of guests and my peace of mind. There are 2 cameras, one facing the front door, and another one in the front terrace, as well as window and door movement sensors. They would activate an aural alarm and send a signal to the central control unit, should someone try to break in. To comply with local regulations, I have a certificate from the company (Securitas Direct) that states they have disabled any remote access to the system, so NOONE has any remote control over the alarm system, nor can anyone view any images. The cameras, in any case, DO NOT take pictures or record video. They are NOT surveillance/ CCTV cameras! They solely work in the case of someone breaking in and making the alarm go off. Any recording would quickly be passed on to the police. For the guests extra peace of mind, the alarm system will be disconnected by default before their arrival and the camera lenses covered. Should they wish to have it connected, I will provide a magnetic key and explain how to manually use it upon arrival. Another nice add-on they can use, completely free to them, is the SOS button on the control panel. Even if the alarm is off, they can press the button in case of an emergency and it will connect with an agent from Securitas, who will send for help and/or contact the emergency services, in case it's necessary!
