Stayed last few years, family of four

We haven't written a review in the past because we wanted to keep this lovely and brilliantly located apartment a SECRET.
We will miss this apartment as it has been like home-from-home for approx 2.1/2 weeks over the past five years. Exceptionally clean, everything you need, modern, convenient location and relaxing. Roof swimming pool in adjacent building (through linking corridors) has a brilliant view, all around. There is a small covered balcony which benefits from the morning sun.
Upon arrival/departure we used the bus as there is no real need for a taxi, stops near to the apartment. Morrison's supermarket is also nearby and there is a pull-along trolley in the apartment to assist with carrying shopping back from the supermarket.
The apartment has twin beds in the main bedroom and a pull-out sofabed in the lounge. The only reason we did not make a 2011 booking was because our teenage children decided, for one last holiday, they be spoilt and wanted their own individual bedrooms. Soon they will not want to come on holiday with mum and dad, so we will definitely be back and hopefully more often!
Gib itself has a lot to offer, just put your walking shoes on and explore, visit the beaches, shops/restaurants, bus service is regular. There is a lower cave tour too (wear old clothes) - just ask at Tourist Information. Further afield one can walk to La Linea to the market (Wed/Sat); take the bus or boat to Algercias (cheaper on Sat but shops close for lunch), day trip to Morrocco or bus/train to Rhonda - all nice days out.
The owner, Jackie, is brilliant; excellent communicator and is very flexible, accommodating and helpful. Definitely recommend to friend/relative (but we wanted to keep it a SECRET!)
Thank you Jackie for giving us the opportunity to create some lovely memories. GibFlower x

Owner's Response: What a lovely review and thank you for taking the trouble to write it. You will be missed this year but I completely understand the reasons and will look forward to having you back in the years to come. I know you are as passionate about Gibraltar as I am and you have made the best of every holiday you have had. Very best wishes, Jackie
