Lovely Budget Apartments
We stayed at Apartamentos Livvo Oasis from Wednesday 5th June - Wednesday 12th June. We stayed as a family of 3; myself, my partner and our 1 year old daughter.
Initially, it was just me and my partner due to come, but we added our 1 year old to the booking later on. The staff were happy to accommodate her, free of charge with a cot in our room on arrival.
We arrived with no air con, and my partner enquired about this at reception. Unfortunately, silly me didn't choose the superior room. So if you're like me, and are not very good at reading, there are two options of rooms:
• Standard Apartment - no air conditioning
• Superior Apartment - with air conditioning.
Although we had no air conditioning, we rented a fan for €20 euros, and this was fine for our stay in June. It was roughly 26-28C during the holiday.
The apartment was well equipped, especially the kitchen; cutlery, plates, cups, pans, toaster, coffee machine, fridge-freezer & kettle. You can rent a microwave, an iron and ironing board.
The room and the entire hotel is equipped with Wi-Fi. You can choose the free option which is up to 1Mbs or a Premium Wi-Fi of €1 per day. This is higher speeds than the free WiFi. I had no issue with the free Wi-Fi.
The cleaners come and clean your room five times a week. They do not clean on Monday's or Friday's. Bedding is changed once a week and towels twice a week. The cleaners are very friendly, and they do a geeat job; the apartment was spotlessly clean.
Our first night, my partner and I only had one pillow each, which wasn't enough for us, and we had a bit of back ache in the morning. We requested an extra pillow each, which was provided free of charge. The bed is two singles pushed together to make a super king bed. The bed is firm but comfy.
The hotel and bedroom is relatively quiet. We only had issues with the apartment above us. They kept coming back at roughly 1-2am and they were banging furniture around and slamming doors. It did wake us up but this is not the hotels fault.
With the hotel having 55 apartments, it is a relatively quiet place overall. This is perfect for us, as we do not like overcrowded, busy hotels. I have seen reviews about the pool being overcrowded and there is a fight for sun beds, but we didn't have this problem at all during our stay. We turned up to the pool midday on several ocassions. We did, however, visit in an off peak time.
Although the hotel does cater for young children, we do feel like this hotel is more suited to groups of friends and couples aged anywhere between 20-60. We only saw a couple of other children at the hotel during our stay, and the main atmosphere was couples and friends here to have a few drinks, have a good time and soak up some sun. The saltwater pool area is deep, and shallow area was nice enough for our toddler, but it wasn't shallow enough for her to stand, or for me to swim comfortable with her. This is not a complaint of ours, as we initially booked as a couple, but more of a recommendation for prospective holiday makers.
The pool bar serves drinks and food. My partner disliked the full English, but the pizza was nice enough. We didn't each much at the pool bar, as we mainly prepared food in our kitchenette. The drinks at the bar were nice and refreshing.
The only big gripe we had and hence we have knocked it down a star, was the pool was freezing cold, and it was a struggle to be in the pool. I would have loved to take our daughter in the pool more, but she made it clear that she was cold everytime we took her in. There were quite a few complaints by other holiday makers too, and the pool wasn't used much for this reason. I could understand during colder months, but as we were staying in June with days hitting almost 30C, I think the pool needed to be warmer. We spent a couple of days down on the beach, and we found the sea was warmer than the pool..
Overall, I would say these are great budget apartments to stay at. We enjoyed our first holiday abroad as a family.

Great Apartments for the price, great location,nice rooms, nice pool area and bar. The bar is very reasonable for food and drink which is tasty opens 9am - 6pm (cash only). The reception staff was very nice and helpful the rooms were well maintained and clean as was the hotel grounds. We would definitely stay here again.
