Torremar I & II Apartments

My family and I have just returned from the best holiday ever. The apartments were lovely, clean and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly, very helpful and genuine nice people.
One of the waiters in particular took to my husband and they had the best laugh. He even took us to the next town rather than us pay the taxi money. His English was excellent. I highly recommend going here.
It is a quiet place for families to relax, without the madness of night clubs etc. There is plenty of entertainment in the complex itself. A fella called Jason from Ibiza excursions was really helpful and told us of many places we could go to.
Next door in the restaurant is the nicest paella you will ever taste. I highly recommend these apartments to families or couples who are looking for a nice relaxed holiday. The entertainment was also hilarious and very, very entertaining.

Myself and my family stayed at the Torrenmar for 2 weeks on 17th July 2005 and found the apartments really good when we arrived the new entertainers had arrived which were really good. Beach was right outside our apartments the food was good in apartment bar and also at the mini golf restaurant.
Were not many shops, but they had everything you would need. We found Puerto san Miguel a really good place for a family holiday very peaceful no busy roads I would go back with my family next year 2007 great place.

I'm sorry that some of your reviewers had such a bad time in the Torremar. My family and I stayed in Torremar 1 (July 05) our third visit and once again we had a very enjoyable experience.
I would agree the rooms are basic, tired and in much need of a refurbishment but during our stay they were kept clean and tidy by the maids who were very courteous given my lack of Spanish and theirs of English. There is little in the way of kitchen equipment but given I was not there to cook it was adequate for the breakfasts and lunches we did prepare.
We had three fans in our apartment one in each bed room and one in the main living area. Given the temp was in the high 80's they really only moved the hot air around but if you opened the windows there was a good through breeze. We had a lovely view of the beach from the main balcony and although the road ran in front of the complex it was quiet and didn't produce much noise. The second bedroom had a good view over a small wood and smallholding and we were initially woken each morning by the farmers cockerel but either he ended up in the pot after a few day or we got used to him as he wasn't really a problem.
The resort is small and compact but has all you need for a relaxing holiday. If its bright lights you are after there are plenty of other resorts that can cater for you with discos and all night pubs. I would agree there are limited number of placed to eat but the food is usually very fresh and of good quality. The Camp y sol (mini golf) also has a few specials on each evening which are more local fare. Try the fish platter at the weekend very fresh and enough for 2. The t-bone steak takes up the whole of the plate! The Marine dos is also good with some very traditional dishes while the Balansat on the beach is quiet expensive but worth a treat. The Torremar bar does good breakfasts and snacks during the day and a good value 2 course meal in the evening.
The Torremar in house entertainment is usually 1st class and well balanced between kids and adults. This year was initially a bit disappointing as the entertainer didn't seem to have enough on for the kids in addition he left a few days in to our holiday but the gap was ably filled by Jason who also worked behind the Bar. I understand a new entertainment crew arrived the day we left and were very good. There was a slight problem with the new automated pool chlorination which resulted in bleached costumes and a few of the children had sore eyes and skin. This took a few days to resolve during which the pool was closed but everyone was reimbursed on the spot for their spoilt bathing costumes and as the beach was so close it really wasn't much of an issue for us.
As we are not really pub and disco types we were very pleased to find Angela's a small bar that opens in the evening and caters for those wanting a quiet drink before or after your main meal. Note it opens around 19.00 doesn't serve food and closes when ever. The star is Angela herself who never seems to stop working and is always there with a smile and a welcome.
If its a quiet family orientated holiday you are looking for Puerto San Miguel has all you need the Torremar offer basic standard accommodation but could do with a refurbishment. We have been back three times and to be honest it isn't the accommodation that brings us back rather the people and the resort itself. We enjoy it so much we are going back again this year and meeting up with others we have met on previous trips.

I have stayed at both the Balasat and Torremar Apartments over many years and have found them good, clean, basic accommodation the staff and management are caring and helpful.
I have met many, many repeat customers over the years and I have also met people who don’t know how to enjoy themselves on holiday by not throwing themselves into a Balearic way of living, this is a resort that has bars and restaurants where the locals and holiday makers mix together experiencing local flavours and culture.
I have never experience a holiday from hell in this property so please do not be put off by photos from people trying to claim compensation on their holidays!
