Apartamentos Callaomar

This is our second visit, this time for a 4 week stay. It's as good as ever and I'd endorse everything good I said in my last review. Even in February the pool temperature is fine. It's an easy short walk to the sea and restaurant area , which have seen some good new additions since we were last here. The whole building is kept spotlessly clean and, if anything breaks it is immediately fixed. The owner Victor keeps a close eye on things and ensures continuous smooth operation. He is efficient, friendly and approachable. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful area and very quiet. A little old fashioned but everything is clean and working in room. Pool was very cold which spoilt our holiday as do love a dip to cool off. It states pool/tennis table. Pool table is broken and no tennis table !!! Just a tad to far to local shops and is very hilly

The apartment was great and very spacious. It had all the basics you’d need for a short stay (though it would be great to also have a washing machine). Every apartment has a nice balcony and you can go straight down to the pool from there. The only thing I found weird is that I never saw anyone working at the reception and when I arrived there was just an envelope with keys inside left at the reception with my name and apartment number written on it. I found it strange since anyone from the street can walk in there.

To put our comments into context I should explain that this is the first overseas holiday in over 30 years that we haven't stayed in private accommodation, so we wondered how we would get on with less space, more people and a shared pool. But we needn't have worried - it's been great!  This is a little gem of a place and we felt very comfortable here. As others have said, the owner Victor is friendly, helpful and approachable.  The whole establishment is kept spotlessly clean.  It is in pristine condition. This is a quiet, peaceful place that you can relax in.  Although there are 15 apartments, the pool area is not at all overcrowded. The pool itself is a good size and is a pleasant temperature. Our 1 bedroom apartment felt spacious with a good sized kitchen/diner/living area.  The cooking facilities are perfectly adequate. An oven would have been nice but we managed fine without one. There is satellite TV but with only a few UK channels, so if you want access to a broader range of content you might consider bringing a Chromecast type of device to allow you to view material from your phone or tablet on the TV. The bedroom is a good size with enough clothes storage space for 2 people.  There is also a good sized safe in the bedroom.  For  several days during our stay it was 30 degrees outside,  yet the combination of front and rear balconies in our 1st floor apartment allows air to flow through and keeps the bedroom at a reasonable temperature during the night. The apartment was regularly cleaned and rubbish removed (most days I think). There is also underground parking available. We will definitely come back here and are considering spending a couple of months next winter. We have no hesitation in recommending Callao Mar.
