Beautiful and quiet
We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment had almost everything we needed. Loved the balcony and roof terrace. We were new to Spain so knew nothing about this area. So this is what we discovered about Mar De Cristal; Beautiful beaches and the sea was crystal clear. Shallow for a long way out. Some jelly fish but they were harmless. They seemed to disappear towards the end of July. Lots of water activities but difficult to book anything at Mar de Cristal. Only a few restaurants. Some are quite expensive but Arena and Lasanvi are more reasonably priced. Los Belonas is a 3k walk or a 5 minute drive, with lots of restaurants. Mar de Cristal is very residential and it seems to be mostly Spanish living there/or have holiday homes. Transport links were not easy and very few taxis. We walked into Los Nietos, nothing really there. We also walked to La Manga Camping. Nice restaurant there. Same prices as back in UK. La Manga Strip/La Manga del Mar Menor are definitely worth a visit, as is Capo de Palos. With regards to the apartment, I would say that the only thing that was missing and would have been greatly appreciated as we arrived late, would have been some water left in the fridge. We arrived late and was gasping. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would go back again.

Just what we were looking for
We have stayed in Mar de Cristal in the past, and once we found out that it was in the same block as before, we were thrilled as we knew exactly where we had to go for the local supermarket and restaurants and bars. The property is well maintained and was very clean on arrival. Although, I gave five stars, I was a little disappointed with the selection of satellite channels as it would have been good to have ITV for the Euros, but we coped just fine. A couple of little things to maybe look at for next time is the water filling to the toilet - not sure if a couple of hours to refill is a normal thing or not - and the coffee machine which leaked all over the floor prompting me to think there was a bigger problem elsewhere- sorting it on the drainer soon solved that problem. Mark is a very friendly and helpful host and was always there tho answer any questions. I will absolutely be booking again in the ‘very’ near future.

This was an excellent location for us. The apartment was as described and more. First time "I wish I bought this with me" did not happen. Kitchen more than well equipped. Comfy seating area with beautiful sun rise most mornings. Roof terrace was a big hit very private. A home from home. A return visit a must.

Great Apartment
We stayed here for 8 days in July and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, all the creature comforts of home, sky tv, air con, fully functioning kitchen, comfy bed, all complete with a massive roof terrace. A few local bars which do nice food and cheap drinks - compared to La Manga! Great little local Spar shop which has everything you need. If you like Indian food then Paras Indian in Los Bolones is an absolute must.. Great place, great hosts and we will definitely be back.

A great place to relax. Friendly locals, food and drink at very reasonable prices
The apartment has everything you could wish for. We particularly enjoyed access to the sheltered roof where we could enjoy the Winter sun. The local Spar is well stocked with produce at competitive prices. We were within walking distance of two towns. Los Nietos has the railway station. It is only a short and cheap journey to Cartagena. A great place to visit for its Roman artefacts, Civil war museum, shops and restaurants, amongst other attractions. I would recommend the hire of a car in the winter months as local transport is limited and unless you have your own water sports gear there is little to do on the beach except to enjoy the wonderful walks. The apartment is well maintained and, as a novice cook, it has a kitchen that has everything you could wish for. We were provided with timely information regarding our stay an the company information folder contains all the information that you need to know. I would highly recommend staying here. It was cheaper than remaining at home and heating the house.

Fab!
Great apartment unfortunately the person who normally would look after us had been called away but once we'd got a bit of local info from the owner it was great! Nightlife does not start till 12am, a car is definitely needed to explore & it's very spanish which was great. Apartment fab, roof terrace great for sun worshippers & so many added extras. Dishwasher, washing machine & coffee maker (which I've had to buy for home) were great extras. We had a boiler leak while we were there but we were amazed at how quickly & professionally it was resolved! A great apartment & if you want a quiet relaxing holiday A* Nightlife in La Manga not far away....

Lovely apartment near the sea
We spent a month in this apartment and had a great time. It was comfy and quiet. The reasonable price allowed us to take a month and really explore the area. My husband spent many hours lying in the sun on the rooftop patio which is completely private. There is an additional outdoor table and chairs on the rooftop terrace where you can enjoy a meal looking out over the Mediterranean Sea. Janice and Roger were exceptional managers. I had, unfortunately, had my purse stolen at the Malaga Airport. They loaned me a cellphone and assisted me by printing documents that I needed for an emergency passport. They were so very kind and helpful. We would definitely return.

Early October break in Mar de Cristel
The apartment was well equipped, clean and very comfortable. An ideal base on the quieter shore of the lagoon opposite the La Manga strip. The beach of the lagoon is quite 'rocky' but within 15 mins drive we found some fabulous beachs, perfect for young kids and adults alike. Highly recommended.

Hemos pasado 8 días agradables en el apartamento. Lo mejor, el aire acondicionado y las terrazas, una pena el calor, al ser agosto no hemos podido aprovechar la terraza de arriba por hacer demasiado calor. Había platos, cubiertos y menaje suficiente. También sábanas y toallas. Lo peor el ruido de la cisterna, intentaron arreglarlo pero seguía haciendo ruido

Estancia muy agradable.
El apartamento estaba correcto, el arrendador tiene un libro con recomendaciones y consejos sobre cómo hacer mas agradable la estancia. El único pero es la falta de limpieza en electrodomésticos como microondas u horno. El apartamento se encuentra en un lugar muy adecuado para descansar, a 8-10 minutos andando de la playa. Respecto a la hosteleria, se echa en falta algún restaurante o bar.

Una estancia muy buena.
El apartamento está totalmente equipado, está en un bloque tranquilo y familiar, perfecto para nosotros (dos adultos y dos niños, de 3 y 5 años). Las playas cercanas son también tranquilas y familiares; nosotros íbamos a ellas en coche ya que fuimos cambiando y había siempre aparcamiento. La zona es perfecta para descansar y disfrutar de la playa. Si se busca fiesta, en los alrededores no hay demasiada oferta de ocio sin coger el coche. Aunque no hemos visto al propietario ni a Alison, la encargada, la comunicación con esta última fue muy fluida y resolvió todas nuestras dudas en muy poco tiempo. Repetiríamos sin duda.

Después de pasar 12 días con una unidad de AA que no funcionaba… y que advertimos nada más pasar una noche en la habitación principal sinceramente, mucho calor, es bastante decepcionante. Algunas veces la familia sospeso la opción de abandonar la vivienda. Noches sin dormir, buscando relajarte en el comedor, intentando dormir unas horas. El resto bien.
