Hipocampo

All the apartments have a sea view which was an excellent view. Large balcony which can be accessed from both the living room and bedroom balcony had table and 4 chairs and 2 sun loungers. The balconies of the two bedroom apartments were half the size of the one bed apts. Fully equipped kitchen, all very clean. Pool was really quiet all day until 5pm when a lot of Spanish families turned up. No pool bar or restaurant or any sort of entertainment but you are right on the beach so there are plenty of bars and restaurants. Super cocktail bar called Mosquito right next to apartments. Where to check in was not very clear as it is just an office down the road with no signs.
Would recommend if you want a nice relaxing holiday with great views. Not suitable for families with children as I think the children would get bored. Also everything shuts at midnight with a couple of bars open til 2am, so if you are looking to party, probably not the best place. About 15 minute drive from Altea hills (really pretty town) and 30 minutes from Benidorm and the theme park Terra Mitica which was quite good fun. There is a little fun fair near the harbour which was good also. There are also a lot of really nice restaurants near the harbour which are cheaper and better quality than those on the beach front. A lot do 3 courses and a bottle of wine for 8euro.
