It was located in a quiet, peaceful area and not hard to reach the convenience ; Not far from Gibraltar and Puerto de Algeciras by driving; There was a lift to the 1st floor which really released us with many luggages; Free parking and enough rooms ; Terrace was nice.

The hot water was not enough even for 2 people to have shower continuously, so we did separately in the evening and morning ; Some small bags of shampoo and gel were not eco or enough for using; The pet was €10 /night even we didn’t need any room service and did not give any extra work of cleaning. We experienced much better service for pet but free charge in many other hotels, so just felt a bit… anyway that’s ok.

Beautifully clean and comfortable beds. The location was peaceful. The location of our apartment in relation to pool, reception and car park was perfect. Balcony was lovely, nice size and plenty of privacy. The grounds were well kept and pool a good size for apartment to water numbers ratio. My stay was out of season so it was of course empty.

The only negative for us as a family of 3 on a budget. We needed to cook and prepare each meal even packed lunches in the apartment. The kitchen was no where near adequate, lack of oven (appreciate microwave was a combi but very small and no utensils for the combi feature) and general utensils. The fridge was good at full size and a decent freezer for a week. The kitchenette is the only reason we won’t book again which is a shame as it’s a really gorgeous apartment. However if you are a couple who are planning to eat out a lot and just prepare light snacks and breakfasts then it’s great and enough. I would be prepared to pay more money to stay here and have more in the kitchen.

The apartment was clean and well presented when we arrived. One or two items we were short of were made available very promptly. The pool looked very inviting but unfortunately the weather was cold and wet most of the time. The room was serviced every 3 days which was ideal as we stayed for 12. There was a spacious balcony but again it was too cold to sit ourside.

The walls are paper thin and we were forced to listen to the nocturnal activities of the young couple in the room nextdoor. It felt like their bedhead was coming through our wall ! We spent quite some time in the apartment because of the weather and hence would have appreciated at least one English language channel on the tv.

Big apartment, with 2 bathrooms, 2 dormitories, living room and kitchen. And a big terrace, too. A bit too much for one night, not sure if sufficient if you stay several days. Reception available late in the evening.

View to the parking lot; not very impressive. :-) All shades needed to be kept closed because the outside lights were on all night. Could have been cleaner, especially the floor, made in tiles, would have been easy to be kept cleaner. We also found hairs in the bathtub.

Swimming pool. Also the silence. I'm noise sensitive and this place is located further away from noisy streets (which to me is a plus). I slept well and to me it means good place to be. Nice view on Gibraltar Rock if you go for a walk just a bit further away. Good parking space (not sure how it looks in high season, we were there in late September so perhaps passed the high season ?)

Clearly people have been smoking in the living soon probably since this place was built 😅 It was OK in the bedroom after letting some air in, but the furniture in the living room especially sofa was "soaked" with cigarette smell 😳

I’ll struggle to think of any complaints! I’d never leave but I have responsibilities I can’t escape… I’ve not looked up the meaning of Alcaidesa but I think it could mean little slice of heaven. This is the perfect place to escape life and swim, drink, stroll and enjoy time with whoever you go with. If you want all the bells and whistles book a different hotel apartment and spend more money on the place. It was more equipped than I expected and needed. I’ll take pictures during my next visit to add to a review, if I can review more than once.

I had to bring my own wine glass on one trip and I didn’t realise I needed to ask for a bath plug at reception.

Late check-in was super easy, they had a check-in machine and worked super easily. The apartment was spacious, perfectly clean, and the patio plus the garden were just great. It is a great place to stay for families or groups of friends. Each bedroom had their own bathroom, ideal for longer stay as well. I don’t know about peak time, but in April it was super quiet and tranquil.. Our apartment had its own water heater, so no waiting time for the warm water at the tap, and we never run out of it.

The property refused to communicate in English, I had to use Google translate to understand arrival instructions. Also, the person wasn’t very responsive to my questions regarding the details of our late check-in (I sent them in Spanish). Luckily, check-in turned out to be very easy, I was impressed by the atm-like machine that gave us our key. Also, the lady at the reception at check-out was nice. (And spoke English.) No kettle in the kitchen. And I wished for a smaller, flatter pillow. Nights in April can be unpleasantly chilly in a ground floor apartment.

The 2 bed apartment was very large with 1 ensuite bedroom, a separate bedroom and a bed settee in the living area. Patio doors opened up into a small grassy garden directly infront of the complex swimming pool. We took our pet dogs which the hosts had no problem accommodating (surcharge 10 euros a night). Walking distance to local bars and restaurants and a nice beach.

No complaints, we would definitely stay here again.

We were here on a rainy December day, but realized that it would probably be great to spend a holiday at his place in the summer - Alcaidesa is a wonderful, beautiful resort town by the sea very close to Gibraltar. We lived in the apartment with a kitchen and a terrace. There was a pool downstairs and a private parking lot near the complex.

We arrived in the dark and were surprised that there was no one at the reception and no one answered the phone. Unfortunately we had no communication with the place before and were not warned about this kind of reception, so it was a bit scary. However, we found a very interesting automatic check-in system that was able to read our documents at the end, and we got the key. Finding the apartment was difficult because there was absolutely no lighting in the complex, so we used flashlights and tried to figure out how the location of the apartments is arranged and how they are numbered. Plus, the toilet was not working in the morning. And yet we might return!

This was a beautiful apartment, comfortable. The bed might have been a bit better. Separate bedroom, bathroom. spacious room/kitchen and balcony. The bathtub was hard to get into because the toilet and bidet were facing each other. We lucked out - it was very quiet. During the weekend it became busier and then it was not so great that everything was tiles and concrete - noisy! We did enjoy the stay. The pool was lovely. The walk to the beach (over a golf course, through a tunnel) was convenient and challenging. Loved our stay.
