Great location for a relaxing family holiday in a superbly fitted & spacious villa
We had a great two week family holiday with 3 teenage sons. The villa was very spacious inside and out, having two great outdoor areas, one dining and another a sun deck. The property was well fitted out and had all we needed, the aircon was great in all the rooms and critically for our boys, wifi! The location was peaceful and only a short walk down some steps to one of 3 community pools, which were usually very quiet; there was also a very large pool that can be used by the Tennis centre which is split into 3 different sections from toddlers, young children and adults. The La Manga Club itself is huge, more like a large village with groups of communities within which there are numerous restaurants / bars dotted around, plus a reasonably sized supermarket (a large Carrefour hypermarket is only 20 min drive away in Cartagena (which was also a lovely town with Roman theatre so worth a day trip). Our boys are quite sporty so we took advantage of some of the facilities on site (which have to be paid for) such as golf pitch & put, driving range, crazy golf & tennis - unfortunately our golf wouldn't have been good enough for the 3 championship golf courses. We also joined the gym with a months membership (better value rather than paying by the day) within the spa; it was a great gym and we went everyday. The beach is ok if you are happy with pebbles, there are a number of large sandy beaches 15 min drive away. The quality of the food and facilities on site is very good, but is fairly expensive.
Our thanks to the villa's owner Michael Roberts who was very good communicator, offered lots of support before we travelled and was very welcoming; as were the management company on site.
