Further details for this vacation apartment rental in Gibraltar

GIBRALTAR: : The gateway to the Mediterranean is a very popular seaport for cruise ships. It played a major part in WW11, with regular tours of the large bore cannons, tunnels and caves excavated for that purpose. Gibraltar is also steeped in history as it has strong ties with Nelson's return from Trafalgar and The Marie Celest. Imagine sunbathing on the balcony, a long cool drink in hand, let your mind wander. British type bobbys keeping a very low crime rate, the language is English, the currency is sterling, where are you?. Yet with passport in hand, a very short walk and you have left all that behind you and you are in La Linea, a Spanish town as yet unspoilt by the commercialism of tourist. Everything in it is still typically Spanish, The bars The restaurants, the shops and people. Why choose between a holiday in the U.K or in Spain when you can have both.

Ski: The Spanish Sierra Navada mountains with ski resorts aren't out of reach by car

Golf: There are a number of golf courses within a short drive. SAN ROQUE, SOTOGRANDE, ESTEPONA and MARBELLA, to mention a few

We enjoyed our stay at this apartment
the accomodation was very good.
Excellent location the views great .Plenty to se from the balcony .
ships a cruise liners allin view .When they put their light on the ships moored at night it looks stunning.
You have everything you need at this apartment thoe the kitchen is small but has every thing their you may need .
IF you want to use the DVD you will have to pull the scart leed out
of the sky box and insert it in the back of the dvd else it wont work
Reverse it for tv.
We would recomend this accomodation to any one . you dont need a car busses run all the time and they ar cheep. .NO euro needed . .british tv sun etc home from home .We will be back.
Owner's Response: Dear David, Thank you for you kind review, I am sure it will help other guest. For their information (perhaps a little notice is required) to use the Digital box or the the DVD player you need to select the correct input channel on the TV. It is usually EXT1 for the box and EXT2 for the DVD.

Review Submitted: June 7, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
It was lovely to return to a place that we visited 20 years ago (at that time a hotel) and have such a lovely holiday. It was in 1989 our first overseas holiday together and now 20 years later married with two children it was good to come back and share Gibraltar with them.
The property was clean and well maintained and with TV's with full cable coverage we were able to enjoy wonderful peaceful breakfasts and evenings on the balcony whilst the children caught up with their favorite programmes. Much needed after busy days out.
The bus service into town was regular and very cheap. We spent lots of time on the beach at Catalan Bay and had some lovely seafood meals at the Sea Wave Restaurant.
We got up to the top of the rock to see the monkeys, visited St Michaels Cave, had some lovely meals at the harbour resorts in town and took a trip to see the dolphins. In fact we filled two weeks with lots to do despite the fact that Gibraltar is only small.
Our only dissappointment was that the beach at the resort is now much smaller than it was 20 years ago. With possibly the tide and local builders having something to do with this.

We would have no hessitation in recommendinting this property to others.

Thank you for letting us stay Les and enjoying a lovely family time together. Our children, like us, will have very happy memories of Gibraltar.
Owner's Response: Thank you for you kind review Neil and Debbie. I am very glad you enjoyed your stay. I am sure other potential guest will find it very helpful when looking towards Gibraltar
You are very welcome to return anytime in the future

Review

Jeangenie Bacup, Lancashire
Review Submitted: May 21, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We got married in Gibraltar in May 2009 and hired this property for some of our family to stay in. Just sorry we didn't put the family somewhere else and stay there ourselves! It is a fantastic apartment, spacious, and very well equipped. As we stayed on the other side of the Rock near to the centre of Gibraltar, which is quite lively, on driving round to the apartment we did think it was a bit quiet and not a lot of activity there. But that is the beauty of the location, it is peaceful with just the sound of the waves lapping against the shore and of course the gulls. It is only a ten minute bus journey to the town centre and the buses are every 20 minutes or so and it is an excellent bus service. The buses do stop at 9 p.m. but taxis are not expensive and very efficient. The apartment itself is just perfect, spotlessly clean, right on the sea front, with a large balcony, lovely rooms and equipped with everything you could possible need. If you just want a peaceful holiday away from everything, this is the place to go. There is a small beach just a 5 minute walk from the apartment with a couple of bars and eating places there and a nice little mediterranean restaurant at the top of the road leading to the beach. There is even parasols, chairs and a cool box at the apartment for you to use on the beach. Gibraltar itself is just lovely. There is no problem with language or money and you don't get the hassle from people trying to sell you trips or trying to get you into the bars and restaurants, as you do with some holiday destinations. There are some lovely restaurants. Our favourites were The Lord Nelson in the Square, Pussers Landing and Charlies in Ocean Village - fantastic food at both of these and The Waterfront on the Marina, where we had our wedding reception. The food was fantastic and the staff are very friendly and made a special effort of decorating the table for us. Overall we had a fantastic time in Gibraltar and will definitely be returning and would hire this aparment again.
Owner's Response: Thank you for your kind review, Jean. I am sure potential guest will find it a great help to them and they can be safe in the knowledge that everything possible will be done to promote their expections. Thank you for being such delightful guest. I certainly hope to hear from you again.
