Playa Bella Apartments

"We stayed at the Playa Bella Apartments at the end of October for 1 week. First thing, these apartments are next to a derelict hotel however it was not an issue for us and also not a fault of the hotel. Prior to arrival I requested a sea view. They politely advised they would try but could not promise. We arrived just after lunch time and you cannot get your apartment until 3pm but you can check in and they have a left luggage room. The staff are very helpful. This hotel is very secure, you need your room card to access each separate block. We got a great 1 bedroom apartment with a huge balcony and sea view. Our 18yr old slept on the sofa in the living area which was very comfy. We have 2 patio doors leading to our balcony, 1 from the bedroom and 1 from the living area. I don’t think there would be many apartments without a sea view. The apartments have everything you need and ours was clearly newly refurbished. The pool was nice with plenty of sun-beds, the beach was smallish but ok (we had a lot of seaweed due to the time of year and storms out at sea). There are a few Spar shops in the local area but if you walk to the main one way road and turn right there is a large cheaper supermarket about 5mins walk away. There are plenty of bars and restaurants close by although some had closed due to it being the end of the season. It’s about a 40/50min walk to Cafe del Mar etc and it’s relatively flat. If you do walk pop in for an ice cream from DoDo, delicious! Overall a great hotel, fab apartments and I would definitely return."

"Awesome place to visit We were a bit unsure about this place being on San antonio bay, but it is far enough away from the main nightlife that all you hear now and again ( if the wind is blowing in the right direction) a feint boom boom. nothing that would wake you up or disturb anything what so ever Apartment clean tidy Staff very very welcoming, Prices for food and drink very reasonalble 100% will go back there again"

"We found the playa bella very clean,with friendly staff ,great entertainment, the pool had a lifeguard in attendance all day, it's in a great position right on the beach, you can get a water taxi to take you across the bay to the busy san Antonio side ,excellent for families"
