Paloma Beach Apartments

I’m glad you found the apartments very clean and had no complaints with regard to them, however I feel I must address your other points. Firstly, all of the apartments are privately owned and rented out and we are not able to demolish buildings obscuring overall views….. The Pool: Glass ashtrays are not allowed around the pool for safety reasons, therefore if one goes missing it is the responsible thing for someone to try and find it. The pool bar do provide plastic ashtrays for poolside use, should they be asked for. The Day Trip: If you object to your wife forgoing her modesty, you should take this up with her. As far as Captain John (extremely knowledgeable, lovely old gent as he is referred to in a later review) is concerned he means well and does not hard sell people as you imply. The Manager: I’m not sure if you mean me or not as we don’t really have rank tags here, but I will say that varying lengths of facial hair does not normally offend people (I may have been trying to grow a beard the week you were here) and I wash my hands regularly! You say later in your review that “there appears to be one rule for them and another for others” – If we charged everyone 2€ per sun bed at 4.59pm and then charged you 1€ per sun bed from 5pm we’d be accused of exactly the same thing. We try and treat everybody as equal regardless of their colour, creed, time of purchase or indeed amount of facial hair. Also it is customary to pay for things before you take them, so if you do miss one of the 2 large, prominently placed signs stating where to pay for the sun beds – then we do normally ask people politely to pick up their change at the place where you were meant to pay, as we don’t carry change on our person. I notice you could read the part of the sign that says we close at 6pm…. The Café: The pool bar closes at midnight. This is because it is located at a central point of the complex. If they were to carry on beyond this time we would receive complaints about noise from the bar and from merry guests returning to their apartments. The bar staff ask everyone on the terrace to come inside at 11.45 in an effort to minimize the above mentioned disturbances to other guests. Karaoke Alley: Some people like Karaoke, others do not – it’s the musical equivalent of Marmite. The Car Park: This is not the car park, it is an area of headland alongside a nudist beach. Overall: I think you should keep your criticism to something more constructive rather than personally insulting people and making ridiculous lewd allegations. This website is meant to give people an idea of where they are thinking of going on holiday, not an insight into your internet rants on whether an old man in a wheel chair is looking at your wife’s breasts - and someone else forgot to shave one day.
