The house is brilliant for space, proximity to the sea, peace and quiet and privacy. It was like having a private pool as we rarely saw anyone else. Lovely garden, two well-equipped sun-trap terraces with chairs, loungers, swing-seat etc. Enjoyed all the available pool toys. Air-conditioning in lounge and all bedrooms. Great well-equipped kitchen. Short walk to supermarket, beach-bar and beach. Comfortable beds, plenty of storage.
When looking for a property in Spain we wanted a secure location for our young children to play, a short stroll to a save beach, more Spanish than tourists from other countries and a peaceful tranquil location.
In 2006 we bought or fist property in Mar de Cristal. But with growing children we bought this property in 2012. This is our main holiday home, so it is not very often available in the Dutch children's holidays....
Outside of the summer holiday the first thing you notice in the silence and tranquility. In July and August the village comes to live with families from mainly Spain but also the UK and Holland. The local beaches are fantastic the local beach on the Mar Menor is extremely quiet with lovely calm warm and safe water, even in the summer. The near by Cal Blanque beaches are in our opinion probably the best we have ever seen, this is not Spain as you would imagine. Within the village is an extremely friendly tennis club which offers great value for all the family.
The best thing about this property is the rear terrace. In the evening and night you can sit and relax and enjoy the tranquillity (and the stars).
