When we first started looking for our place in the sun, we quickly narrowed the choice down to the Los Alcázares area. Described by International Living magazine as one of three hidden gems in Europe, Los Alcázares is both an all-year-round town and a summer resort. When you add golf and leisure into the mix then the Mar Menor Resort almost picked itself. Tina, our Spanish realtor, showed us a who
le range of properties, but from the moment we saw our villa we knew it was the one for us. Whether you golf or not, the Mar Menor Resort has something for everyone. Secure and safe with gated entrances, beautifully landscaped and maintained, and with facilities ranging from child-friendly play areas to an international standard spa this is the perfect place to relax, unwind and have fun. One of the many exclusive features of the Mar Menor Resort is the feeling of being on holiday the moment you find yourself amongst the colourful Spanish style villas that line the manicured roads of the community. Our home-away-from-home is located in a quiet spot, yet within just a few minutes walk of all the resort facilities. Step into the south-east facing back garden and you find yourself in your very own slice of the Mediterranean. Beautifully finished with its own private heated pool and paved surround - a range of potted plants and a custom built rustic stone wall, only add to the sense of being in your own private sun-drenched oasis. Inside, that sense of being somewhere special continues, with a luxury fully equipped kitchen, including granite counter tops, stylish furnishings and air conditioning throughout.
