Arguably the best private urbanization in the area, the Gran Vista complex has spectacular views over Carabasi beach and across to Alicante city and its castle (Castillo de Santa Barbara). The urbanization disposes of more than 30,000 m2 of garden grounds mapped out by small footpaths amidst the Olive and Palm trees. Nicely surrounded by green lawn you will find 4 swimming pools, (2 of which are for children), 2 tennis courts, a football playing area and playground for the young ones. The community has its own convenience store and restaurant/Coffee Shop. This stunning quiet community enclosed by separate entrance and exit gates benefits from 24 hours security (during summer) making a perfectly safe place for family holiday.

We wanted a little winter sun and this area was perfect. The location of the property is lovely, amazing views and fantastic facilities. The pools we gorgeous and well maintained. We stayed in February so they were cold but that was expected for time of year. The host is fantastic and couldn't have been any more helpful. The property itself has everything you need and is a great size with loads of room. The only negative is that it is a little tired and could do with some TLC, but over all it is a great place for the price and we would stay again.
Brilliant location if you are looking for a short escape in the sun. Easy access to pools, cafe and a little shop that has everything you might need for a few days. The host was incredibly nice and helpful. The place itself is clean but a little bit dated and run down. Quite a few of the items provided were broken (eg the lounge chairs, sun canopy, quite a few of the knobs came off the cupboard doors, the cot doesn’t dismantle so not much flexibility in which room you can put it in), and the place would really benefit from a little tlc (knives that are sharp, pillows that are comfortable). Also beware that the air condition that cools the house is located at the top of the house so the doors need to be left open so not really suitable if you have a baby or small child that needs to sleep their due to noise.
Maria was a lovely host and the location was ideal with a pool that my boys spent most of their time in. There was a shop in the complex, but it was a bit pricey, so the 24 hour mini market just outside was much better, or there was an English mini market just up the road. All in all a lovely holiday had by all.
Just back from this apartment where we stayed for 10 nights. It was very spacious, with 6 of us staying. The apartment is very well equipped and the communication with Maria was excellent. It is in a super location with bars and restaurants on your doorstep plus the onsite swimming pools are first class. We had lovely days out in Santa Pola and Alicante.
Maria was a fab host nothing was too much trouble. Accommodation was great spotlessly clean, everything you needed was there. Great location lots of bars restaurants and shops near but very quite site. Beach was a short drive away. Our grand Kids loved it , there were 5 of us . Easy bus route to Alicante. Would definitely stay the again thank you Maria .
Beautiful and functional gated area for families; fantastic landlord
The area is beautiful with all its greenery. Well maintained compound in a beautiful landscape. Pool area very nice with attentive swim guards. Nice restaurants just outside the gate. Small shop in the area with fresh bread in the mornings and very friendly staff. Landlord very helpful and friendly. Thank you Maria, we really enjoyed our holiday.
A lovely stay and we all enjoyed ourselves. Great community feel and lots of space in the gated community. Comfortable warm home, and well set up for the stay. Only thing to note is that the master bedroom is on the top floor and the other sleeping ( kids bunk beds) is in the basement/ lower floor.
Es war wirklich ein toller Familienurlaub. Die Anlage ist super und man ist in ein paar Schritten schon am Pool.
Der Poolbereich ist riesig und die Kinder hatten genug Platz um sich auszutoben. Sogar Lifeguards waren da.
Auch außerhalb der Anlage ist alles schnell zu erreichen und man ist mit dem Mietwagen ganz schnell an jedem Ort.
Das Ferienhaus reicht vollkommen für 5 Leute. Man hat genug Platz, es ist sauber und alles da, was man braucht.
Wir können es sehr empfehlen und kommen bestimmt nochmal wieder!

absolutely fantastic
What can i say it was Absolutely fantastic. Wonderful pool with lifeguards. Shops and restaurants on the doorstep, even my brief visit to the doctor (self inflicted injury) went swimmingly. Everything from start to finish was just perfect. Maria was lovely, her communications through out were so helpful and thorough, which is far, far more than we were expecting.
The house was advertised and worked really well for our group of six and again Maria's explanation of how everything worked was excellent.
It was a great base to explore further afield, and we also found everything we needed in the local shops.
Showers were fantastic, beds very comfy and the kitchen well equipped for all our needs.
Thank you very much for everything Maria, especially that last bit of panic with the taxi's. will look forward to sorting out next years diary and coming back

Perfect for our family
Everything from start to finish was just perfect. Maria was lovely, her communications before arrival, upon arrival and on leaving were so helpful and thorough, which is always so reassuring.
The house was as advertised and worked really well for our family of five, and again Maria's explanation of how everything worked was excellent.
It was a great base to explore further afield, and we also found everything we needed in the local shops.
Showers were fantastic, beds very comfy and the kitchen well equipped for all our needs.
If we need to be in that area again I would definitely book this house again.
Thank you very much for everything Maria.
