Pierre & Vacances - Apartamentos Altea Beach

Liisa Eskelinen

Please notice that 70 m2 apartments are nice looking in the photos BUT SMELL ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE AND UNHEALTHY (building 7 seven 1st apartment floor apt. 306). It 200 meters away from the main building which is the one presented in the photos. They are renovated to a very old building which smells absolutely horrible. Untolerable. ’Service’ is 0 stars at it is non-existing. First the receptionist said she ”cannot make an upgrade” when I offered money to her, us to stay in the main building. THEN she said ”You need to call to where you booked it from” even though I booked from Pierre & Vacances own website!! After calling for 15 minutes to UK she walks outside to say she has talked to a superior and could change our apartment. Where was this half an hour earlier? That ’superior’ apartment had a very strong perfume odour from cleaning products. Not good at all. Still, the ’service’ was the worst. She was the lousiest receptionist I have ever met, with the experience from dozens of accommodations in around 30 countries. First she said TWICE I need to make the call myself. THEN she starts acting like ”she couldn’t say it as I had been upset” about she forcing me to call from Spain to UK with a Finnish mobile phone number (which probably cost me another 50-100 euros as I tried to call for the 3rd time to get my money back - didn’t succeed, only got directions how to make a complaint online). However it was clear it was not worthwhile to ruin my special holiday by staying. Stay instead anywhere else than here.

Great beach to chill but make sure to take your coral shoes with you.

Apartment was nice had dishwasher and washing machine as well as normal facilities no kettle tho but used saucepan. It was quite spacious with a nice view. A few nice restaurants nearby but supermarket up steep hill and no transport nearby. Not really anything to do in this area so had to get cabs to get out.

Great location, rooms a bit dated but really can't complain as we got a two bed apartment for €60 for a two night stay midweek. Noisy bar on the Wednesday night, but that's just because we've two young children now, would not be complaining ten years ago!
