Great apartment
The apartment is in a great location close to the beach, bars, restaurants and supermarket. The facilities are as advertised and the apartment is very clean with everything you would need for a short/long stay. The balcony overlooking the pool is perfect for sitting and catching the last of the days sunshine. The booking process was really easy with great communication from Stefan throughout. I booked with my two teenage sons, as we where attending a local festival. I will certainly be back again in the future with my wife for a full family holiday and a longer stay.

A lovely apartment in a great position.
We stayed at the Roos' apartment for 6 nights. The apartment was as shown on the photos. It's well equipped, with everything you need in the kitchen. The owners are easily contacted and respond quickly to any queries. The pool is especially lovely. The apartment's balcony looks over it so our teenage children were able to go down alone, knowing that we were able to see them if there were any issues. The pool is clean and was never really busy. The location of the apartment is great. There are a few restaurants and bars close by. We had two wonderful meals at George's and some great great cocktails while we played pool at David's Bar. There are also two supermarkets. The beach is just a couple of minutes walk away and you can catch a bus going either way (towards Fuengirola or Marbella) easily. La Cala is in walking distance (about 45 minutes for us along the boardwalk). We did this a few times with pit stops for drinks in the beach bars on the way! We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment. We would definitely consider staying here again.My only regret is not taking my sleeping mask as the blinds are very thin and there is a security light from a neighbouring property that shines in on the double bedroom. Thanks so much!

Fantastic stay
We have just finished our stay at this lovely apartment and me & my family had a lovely time. The apartment is in a great location, very pleasant short stroll to the beautiful beach and close to shops and restaurants. It is also very close to bus stop which can take you all across the Costs Del Sol. We loved La Cala too and spent most days walking there on the lovely board walk. The pool at the apartment is lovely and we enjoyed the tennis courts. The Hosts were so accommodating, allowing us to check out later as our flight wasn’t till late and the apartment is very well equipped with everything you need for a great family holiday. The weather has been amazing too which we were not expecting in April! We look forward to returning!

The location was perfect as we did not have a car. Very easy to walk for all groceries and excellent location for using very convenient bus service along the coast. The shower leaked all over the floor every time, so that would be one fix I would recommend

Just the job
We had a short stay at this apartment - only 5 days, and it was everything we needed really. Very nicely laid out and comfortable. Lovely kitchen. We found the bathroom okay. The broken drawer probably made it look a bit messy but it was functional. Nice that some toiletries were there. We did have some teething problems with the shower and had to do some mopping up but we got there in the end! The resort is nice. We liked the beach café (nice for coffee and croissants, sardines, paella, etc.), and enjoyed some lovely sunsets - especially from The Garden Bar. We even played tennis (very badly), and went in the pool a couple of times. The sea was a bit cold, which was a shame as there are body boards in the apartment. The only thing we didn't like was the big main road as it's pretty noisy. Easy enough to get to the beach with the underpass, though.

Bahia Playa
The complex is really nice with a beautiful pool and well tended gardens . We thought the accommodation we rented needed a refurbishment and repainting apart from the kitchen. The bathroom was the worst with chipped and dirty paintwork , one of the shower attachments didn’t work at all and the owners cosmetics were everywhere. The bedrooms were ok but there was no spare bedding and the towels were threadbare. There were no tea towels for drying dishes. Some of the light fittings didn’t work . When we paid the extra money for cleaning we thought someone would come in and at least change the bedding. Our overall impression is that the apartment needs to be brought up to date.

Lovely place, beautifully arranged & appointed
This may be the loveliest holiday rental we have ever had, as holiday renters for quite a few years now. Stefan & Kristin are very helpful, very clear instructions & very available when needed; lovely friendly neighbours, a beautifully well kept pool & gardens, lovely location a short walk to the beach, shops, etcetera, close to the major centres such as Fuengirola, Marbella (& the medium-sized places in between, supersol hypermarket calypso / los olivos 5 minutes' drive for instance) with the bigger stores & facilities etcetera, the apartment itself is very beautifully arranged & appointed, everything we needed, perfect for a family of 5 or 6. We were lucky with the weather too, hot enough to dip in the pool – the children stayed in longer! – in April. Thanks very much Stefan & Kristin, we hope we'll be welcome back :-)

Wonderful location
We had a lovely stay at this location. Every morning we woke up to freshly baked croissants and freshly squeezed orange juice from local supermarket, about 3 minutes from us. Our older son loved to go and buy all every morning as a treat. The complex is very clean, with immaculate gardens and perfect pool for kids and adults. We enjoyed playing tennis in the evening too. Local beach is so close that if you forgot something at home there is no hard walk back. We loved some very long walks on the board walkways along the beach and tried different local beaches along. Also there is no need for a car as we only used busses and got to many places. Marbella is about 40mins one way. The bus stops are, again, hardly any walk from the apartment. So all is within close reach. The flat itself has all you need, very cozy and pleasant. Despite the hot temperatures outside we only used the AC once. We were a family of 4 with 2 teens boys( 13 and 16). Thank you Roos family for a great stay.

Fantastic apartment in a great location
This was the first time our family had booked a holiday direct with the owner and I have to say that the whole experience was absolutely first class. Kristin and Stefan who own the place were very helpful all the way through the process, from booking and paying right through to arrival. The apartment has two good bedrooms, well equipped kitchen (full oven, dishwasher, washing machine), nice lounge area with good air con unit. The balcony was in a perfect spot overlooking the pool with views out to sea. The pool and surrounding gardens were immaculate, just right for getting the sunbeds out and relaxing on. There is a good tennis court onsite that you can use (we didn't use that as much as we would have liked as it was just too hot to play). Local bars and restaurants are within easy walking distance and there was just enough going on in Riviera Del Sol to keep everyone happy, but without the anti social behavior you sometimes get in the big resorts. There was an Indian, Italian, Chinese, Noodle Bar and 3 or 4 other very good Spanish places. Prices varied depending on the quality but we found them all to be very good. There are also 4 or 5 small bars around the place that just do drinks. For days out the apartment is in a great location, we visited Gibralter, Marbella, Puerto Banus, Fuengirola and best of all was Mijas Pueblo which is a lovely traditional Spanish town up in the mountains. The golf nearby was brilliant as well, from the apartment it is only a 10 or 20 minute drive to some of the best courses in Spain, we had 4 rounds while we were there. All were very good but our absolute favourite had to be Santana Gold Club, what a great course that is. If you need help booking golf and renting clubs I would highly recommend you get in touch with http://www.sunshine-golf.co.uk/, their shop is in Cala de Mijas about 10 minutes away by car and they sorted the whole thing out for us, very helpful indeed. So, all in all we had a great time and would highly recommend No 20 Bahia Playa to anyone looking for an active holiday in Spain. Tim Fellows 07/08/2017
