Self Catering Holiday Accomodation Campoamor

Holiday Villa Campoamor

This holiday home is on Costa Calida coast in South East Spain.The area has an average of 320 days a year of sunshine and maintains an average year round temperature of 24°C. A number of blue flag beaches,offering of watersports,and three excellant golf courses are less than 10 min drive.

The holiday home is inland and surrounded by a golden triangle of three golf course. It is also very close to several blue flag beaches, with life guards in attendance during the main summer season. Each beach has its own character and it's worth trying out a few different ones to see which you prefer.
The Beaches:
Campoamor. This is the closest. This is a much larger beach, also with a beach bar and sun-loungers, and where parking is easier. There is also a proper beach restaurant opposite the small marina. There are banana boats,pedalos and jet skis for hire.
La Zenia is also very close. Here you will find sun-loungers to hire and a couple of beach bars. To the left hand side of the La Zenia hotel is a very quiet more "natural" beach and to the right hand side is the beach with the bars etc. If you buy lunch or drinks at the hotel, you will be able to use their facilities as well -- they have a great pool and a children's play area.
Cabo Roig and Cala Capitán beaches are small rocky coves, reached by descending steps. These beaches are very popular and there is also a marina and restaurants adjacent to some.
Mil Palmeras is a very nice beach and here you will find a whole area of small beach bars and restaurants - some predominantly English and German - - few Spanish ones, it has to be said!
Santiago de la Ribeira or Los Alcazares are the beaches of the Mar Menor which is south of Campoamor. The Mar Menor is an inland saltwater lagoon, separated from the Mediterranean by the La Manga strip. The water is significantly warmer than the Mediterranean and as still as a millpond; there are hardly any waves at all.
San Pedro del Pinatar is the closest of the Mar Menor beach is which is only 10 minutes from Campoamor. This is a lovely beach (called Villanitos or Lo Pagan) and there are lots of shops and cafés here. This is also where the therapeutic mudbaths are - and there is a fantastic walkway between the Mar Menor on the right and the mudbaths on the left. Here you can promenade all the way to the very tip of the La Manga strip - but you can't get across!!

Golf: . This holiday home is on the Real(Royal) golf club Campoamor with the gates of Las Ramblas only 300 yards away. The Villa Martin golf course is less than 10 minutes drive away.

The villa is within walking distance to the supermarket, shops and banks. The new commercial complex La Fuente has been opened. It has several bars including two Irish Pubs, Fish & Chip,a Pizza resturant,a Chinese and Italian Restaurant. More shops and restaurants are expected to open this summer.
For greater choice a short 5 to 10 minute drive to the Plaza of Los Dolses, Vila Martin and the Blue Lagoon. I however prefer the Cabo Roig Strip with aguamarina, Cabo Roig and playamarina. There is a choice of Chinese, Indian, Thai, Italian, English and Spanish restaurants.
Campoamor Golf Hotel is at the highest point of the development. The restaurant has and International Chef to offer the best cuisine to all its clients, to be enjoyed in a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. It is an excellent place to have lunch in the patio. On a clear day you have excellent view of the entire Costa Calida coast from La Zenia to the Mar Menor and the La Manga strip.
La Finca De Eduardos is a short drive from the villa. This is probably one of the finest restaurants on the Costa Blanca/Calida coast.They serve lunches on the terrace all year round. An evening meal at the restaurant is very pleasant and the food is excellent. We had a very nice all inclusive Christmas Lunch last year. It is highly recommended if you want to get away for Christmas. Eduardos its sister restaurant is in Villa Martin Plaza. This is also a fine restaurant but the atmosphere is not as good as La Finca.
A nice Spainsh Restaurant is EL Pescadito in Mils Palmeras. They serve an excellant Paella. They have Flamenco dance on Wednesday eveining.
The Chineese Restaurant that is recommended is Pato Pekin in the Las Fillipnas oeste area. It is less than 5 minutes driving past the super market.
