• Wow! What a lovely apartment! A refreshing change to stay at an apartment that actually reflects the description from the Web Site i.e. clean, tidy and beautifully furnished. The location was great for our kids aged 10 &13, the complex is secure, the pool area is safe and NOT crowded. Bettina was great to deal with, ensuring we knew where everything was and that we were comfortable. Being a keen cook, the kitchen had everything I needed to make some tasty seafood dishes (paella of course) with the abundant supply of fresh seafood bought from the well-stocked local supermarkets. Thanks Bettina, hope to see you soon......Adios!

• The apartment is situated in a very nice complex with views over the pool. The complex as a whole is very well maintained. The apartment is very well equipped and ideally placed for all the local amenities so if you do not wish to hire a car you can walk to everything that you would need for a very nice holiday. Bettina met us at the property on time and showed us everything that we needed to know about the apartment. We found that there was no worries whatsoever with hand over when arriving and leaving the property as Bettina is very efficient and happy to help with anything that you need. I would recommend this apartment to practically anyone looking for a few days in the sun with restaurants, bars and entertainment on your doorstep.

• My husband, myself and our teenage son stayed in this apartment for a week in early July 2010. On arrival we met Bettina, who informed us that tea, coffee, milk and water was available if we wanted to make tea or coffee. We felt at home immediately. The apartment block is built in a Moorish style and very pleasant to look out at from the spacious balcony where we all our meals overlooking the beautifully maintained garden and pool area. We lay out on sunbeds in the garden under trees on some hot afternoons. The supermarket is 3 minutes walk and there are some very good restaurants very close by. The beach can be accessed by a bridge over the main road and is very clean. We used the local buses and trains and found both to be very efficient. All in all we found both the Spanish and the English people we met to be very pleasant and helpful. We had a very relaxing weeks holiday. Thanks Bettina.

• What can I say? This apartment is lovely! It is spacious, decorated to a very high standard and is spotlessly clean. It is bright, modern and airy with the sun shining on the balcony all day long (a big balcony at that). The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. The bathrooms have good quality modern sanitary ware…to hotel standard. Bettina met us at the apartment and showed us around, she really made us feel very welcome and we felt at home straight away. The grounds are very well maintained and the pool is clean. The whole complex was very quiet (late September) and we had a very relaxing week. There are lots of restaurants and bars nearby but my advice would be to take a short walk along the beech to Cabopino as the restaurants are much nicer there. There is a new supermarket just up from the apartment where you can buy English as well as Spanish produce. Should I return to the area I would stay at this apartment again as it was simply splendid…thanks Bettina!

• We had a fabulous time at this apartment which was perfect for us ( - 3 kids on tow). The location was ideal and the apartment was extremely comfortable and clean. Bettina was very helpful and made every effort to ensure our stay was hassle free and as comfortable as possible. Many a night was spent on the large balcony enjoying the peaceful surroundings and lovely gardens below. My only regret was that time passed so quickly ! Many thanks to Bettina for her care and assistance and I would not have any difficulty recommending this apartment to anyone else. Hopefully we will be back very soon !

• The apartment is lovely, clean and fresh. Its a very comfortable size with two showers, which is really great if it gets really hot! The proximity to the major towns is a big advantage. Its only €1.20 to Fuengirola and €1.87 to Marbella on the buses, which are great too. The complex is full of really nice restaurants and bars if you dont fancy heading off. All in all, its a great place for relaxing and enjoying yourself, and youre only a bus trip away from nightlife. Excellent all round.

• May 2009 - Great value for money, excellent apartment, well presented and decorated with good taste, equipped with absolutely everything and more for a self catering holiday. The walk in shower was a big plus as was the en suite with bath and shower, comfortable for all age groups. Very quiet and enjoyable 5 day break, relaxing on balcony which overlooked the well maintained gardens and swimming pool with jacuzzi. The supermarket and restaurants are a short stroll from the apartment and the beach, approximately 10 minute walk. Would definitely recommend to friends and family, and I congratulate the owner for her communication skills and personal touch.

• Bettina made every effort possible to ensure that we had everything we needed for our short break. The apartment was sparklingly clean and beautifully decorated and kitted out. The situation is fantastic, with great views of the pool exactly as shown on the site and enough restaurants and shops within 2 minutes walk to keep us happy for a week at least. The welcome pack was a lovely touch, ensuring we had a cold beer on arrival and food for breakfast on our first morning. Its also worth saying that the surrounding gardens and pool are also immaculate - very child and sun seeker friendly! Bettinas welcome and attention to detail make you feel as if youve landed in the lap of luxury for a few days - worth every euro!

• A beautiful, neat and tidy apartment very close to the beach and exactly as descibed in the advert. We would thoroughly recommend this apartment to anyone be it couple looking for short break, small family or retired people for relaxation. The apartment is very close to the beach and amenities. The host was very attentive and communication both before, during and after our stay was excellent (10/10). The pool and garden on site are both clean and almost deserted while we were there. Our only 2 comments are that there is no washing machine (we knew as not listed in the advert) and we thought although you do not need a car (buses and taxis within a couple of minutes walk) we would recommend one especially if you want to venture further afield. With these 2 points in mind overall we have to give a 9/10 and would most certainly use again.

• My husband and I spent the month at El Zoco in March, we had a lovely time the apartment was very comfortable with plenty of room. Bettina had left a lovely bottle of wine some chocies milk and much needed teabags to start us off. The gardens were lovely well maintained we spent many an afternoon by the pool (not in it too cold) Yes there is a main road but we could not hear it from the apartment or gardens but it was great because we dont drive so the bus was great Marbella in 25 mins 1euro 85 single Fuengirola 20mins 1euro 15. We had lovely walks along the front stopping in our favourite watering holes La Capricha, Dona Lola and Royal Beach ending in Julies at cabopicho marina, of course getting the bus back. Thank you very much Bettina for making our first month long holiday so lovely. See you soon Joan and Rob

• This apartment was beautifully presented, modern and well-equipped. It mirrored the information and the photographs on the website perfectly. The building is very well-maintained and the pool and gardens were immaculate. The location is really very good for accessing public transport to Marbella, Fuengirola and beyond. There really is no need for a car, local supermarkets are on hand to cater for most needs. Calahonda itself had a relatively quiet beach and the walk to Cabopino (a short distance away) was worth it. A lovely setting. Bettina communicated with us regularly before our stay and couldnt have been more helpful. Bettinas contact - Keith, was also really helpful and informative. For the time of year the weather was very good. We had a great family holiday and intend to return.

• Myself and family recently stayed at the appartment - everything was as detailed in the description of the property posted on the WWW. Immaculate, clean, convenient to all amenities. Spent most mornings before breakfast in the pool swith the kids. All furnishings and white ware as new - seemed a shame to cook!!! - but we did lots of cooking - all utensils and hardware perfect/spotless. Nice to have 2nd shower room - ideal for the kids as nice and low wirh taps etc that could be reached and controled by ease even by a 5 and 4 year old. I will definately be retuning in the near future and this apartment would be a first choice at all times. Ecellent holiday, enjoyed by all - even i relaxed as soon as i arrived. Collected from the airport by Keith one of Bettinas friends - no need for a car - bus service very good. Local supermarkets had everything you wanted - meat/fish especially good. "

The pool is a lot bigger than the photos show, it was never overcrowded and there were times we had it all to ourself! We never went without a sunlounger, no matter what time of the day we went down. The apartment complex is absolutely gorgeous and really well maintained. We had a lovely ten days staying here, and really didnt want to leave! I would highly reccommend this apartment to young people, couples and families it has everything you need on your doorstep. Thanks Bettina! Especially for helping us sort out transfers with the lovely Keith! The Ipswich Giwls x

A superb apartment with all that you could wish for, the layout, the space, the decoration and the beautiful gardens are spectacular. We had an extremely wonderful time. We felt like we were hidden away in a lovely quiet place yet just 10 mins drive in either direction to all the hussle and bustle if we wanted it. No question about it we will definitely be coming back and will certainly recommend to family and friends. From the bottom of our hearts...Thank you Bettina for making our holiday a very enjoyable stay. We really didnt want to leave!!!!

• Have just come back from one of the best holidays Ive been on and already wish I could be back there! The apartment is gorgeous and really well-maintained. The pool and gardens are equally as great and make for many good sunbathing days. The surrounding area (2-5 min walk) has all the bars and restaturants you would need. No car is required as the buses are so cheap and reliable though a car may be preferred for families. Marbella is a beautiful town and beach and a visit is highly recommended! Overall, had a fabulous time in Bettinas apartment and would recommend to anyone who is after a relaxing holiday in the sun. Thanks so much Bettina, from the Welsh Girls.

Bus routes are regular and cheap but would recommend car hire if going as a family. Local beach is poor if I'm being picky but Cabobino is lovely and only 5 minutes drive away. Overall highly recommended!!!

• I booked this very last minute ie within 12hours !! and Bettina was fantastic and even went out and bought a new cot for my 2nd baby !! The apartment is lovely and fresh and new, lovely decorated. The pool is nice and quiet and there are various shops, cafes and restaurants on the doorstep. Calahonda is a residential area between fuengirola and marbella, its not great for getting around with a buggy and 2 babies but once we had hired a car it was perfect as cabopino beach was only 5 mins drive away - a lovely beach with some great cafes and restaurants, marbella was only 15mins drive and puerto banus was about 20mins so it was perfect to explore the different beaches and places around.
