Apartamentos Albatros(Albatros Apartments by Malibu)

Just back from a couples long weekend break. Arrived late at night and was met by one of the owners (family run I believe). He kindly took us to our room where there was a complimentary bottle of wine and water. The apartment is fantastic, newly renovated, really spacious and the little extra for a sea view was worth it. The balcony is huge with table and chairs. It got the sun late afternoon, I'd personally have loved a lounger on it. Loads of hanging space for clothes and TV has Netflix options etc. TUI website says there is an iron but we couldn't find one. The whole complex is gorgeous and immaculate. The pool is great, you get a decent swim due to the shape. Really quiet and relaxing which we personally found perfect. There is a bit of work still going on but there was little noise. There is going to be a roof bar and sunbathing area, a restaurant and a clothes shop. There is a supermarket underneath which you get a discount at. As its only just reopened it wasn't busy so the owners allowed us to keep our room on till 6pm free of charge which was really appreciated, although once it's busy this obviously may not be an option for them. We absolutely loved our stay here and would definitely stay again, really close to all shops, restaurants and bars and the beach. And you can walk along the coast in playa paradise. Buses run into Los Christianos if you want to go further but we were surprised with how much was available in callao salvaje (we usually stay in las americas). I would defo recommend this as a place to stay.

We were extremely pleased with our apartment(no.34)Not only did it contain a full range of kitchen equipment, most appeared very new and in excellent condition.Very comfortable bed, well furnished lounge, everywhere was immaculately clean.Magnificent view from the very large balcony.This contained table 4 chairs,settee and 2 armchairs. The only downside - it was on the top floor,stairs only.

On arriving at the apartment we found electricity to part of the apartment didn’t work, after reporting the problem someone came and suggested they give us an extension lead to plug into a socket that was working, this would have been a trip hazard as the lead would have been trailing from one side of the room to the other. We asked for another apartment which they very quickly provided. Before leaving UK for our holiday I contacted the company asking if they provided pool/beach towels ( as there is a pool there ) yes was the reply they will be in your apartment with the other linen, on checking where were the said towels we were informed no they don’t provide them, we had to buy two as being told they would be provided we didnt pack any. The plus side was the staff were helpful and the weather was fabulous
