We were surprised to be charged a 100 euro management charge which was not mentioned in the "extras"- there is no charge for electricity in January according to the details.
We were shocked to be charged for damage to a table and redecoration of the lounge wall- we certainly were not responsible and the owner had workmen in when we arrived and a second time whilst we were there . We were not aware of any marks to the wall and certainly only touched the switches ( we are a retired couple).
We also felt that towels should be provided- they take up a lot of room in cases  and it would have been good to have uk tv which most people have on the development. There was no one to do a check when we left so the owner was not able to show us the damage!!The oven did not work properly but other appliances were fine.
Overall we felt cheated by the owner over the "extras" and the claims for damage.

Luxury apartment in El Soto

Couple from East Sussex, United Kingdom

Property advertised as with Wi-Fi and internet but NONE available. Would not have booked if I had known and therefore property miss-marketed. Owner provider a "dongle" with 200mb of data allowance but not sufficient. Owner didnt turn up for check out and then has attempted to claim on insurance for cleaning/stains on bedding which were present on arrival. If you do make booking ensure you take insurance and dont leave deposit !!!!

Area great and would definitely return just not to this apartment or with this owner.

Family from Northampton, United Kingdom

This is a very nice property, spacious and well maintained. The views of the sea and the hills are amazing. It is situated away from the busy seafront and therefore is very quiet, and the air is fresh and clear. The whole development is very aesthetically pleasing: the terracotta coloured Spanish style architecture blends naturally with the surroundings, the gardens are well kept and it seemed like there were more pools than residents during the month of April. One thing to remember: bring your own towels as the owner does not supply them, for some reason he fails to mention it anywhere. Otherwise, excellent value and highly recommended.

 From Brussels, Belgium

We have our own property (ref 3615) on this site so we know how important it is to ensure the villa lives up to expectations. This apartment was absolutely lovely. It was spotlessly clean and a lot bigger than we expected. The photos do not do it justice. The bathrooms are massive and the view wonderful. George, the owner, was very helpful and the estate the apartment is on is great. It was very quiet. There is an excellent 9 hole pitch and putt which was quite challenging, two tennis courts and it was like having your own pool because although there are 11 pools on the estate we had our one to ourselves. You will definitely need a car but it is only 15 mins from Marbella or Puerto Beunos or Fuengirola. We loved it and will certainly be back. Cant recommend it highly enough- excellent value- thanks George!

 From Burnham On Crouch, United Kingdom

The apartment was lovely, clean, light and spacious. The views were exceptional. The development is extremely pleasant, its quiet very well maintained with beautiful landscaping. The golf course was enjoyed by my husband and the clubhouse is very pleasant. You need a car to get around but we knew this in advance so it was not a problem with shops restaurants and coast all within a few minutes drive. George, the owner was great, he speaks excellent English and was very welcoming. I could go on and on about the features of this place but all I can say is if you enjoy peaceful surroundings and you like the look of this place, try it, you will not be disappointed.

 From Gillingham

We came to this beautiful place with my wife for honeymoon at the late august. 
The place is just amazing. There is a beautiful view of the sea and shoreline, wonderfull swimming pool, and all this is just about 10 minuits by car from the sea.
The kitchen is equipped with everything a man need, so there were no problems to enjoy a romantic dinner on the terrace overlooking the sea. The good and quite cheap supermarket Mercadona is just 2 km from Elviria, so there was no problems with the products.
In case we did not want to cook, there was a lovely restaurant at the golf club just a 5-minute walk from the place.

Thanks to Jorge and his place our honeymoon was great and unforgettable.

 From Chekhov

I was in the apartment for some time in Spring 2012 and the owner Jorge Hevia was very helpful with any issues. For example, I had some issue with a business-class internet connection so he offered me a quick solution. The cleaning service left the apartment very clean at a reasonable price. Im happy to recommend it to anyone...."

 From Uk

We recently spent a week at this apartment in El Soto and wasnt too sure what to expect... The apartment was lovely and clean, with everything you would need. The kitchen was fully equipped the bathrooms were lovely with the Jacuzzi bath in the en suite. Amazing views, very clean pools, well kept grounds and excellent on site facilities. 
The onsite restaurant serves excellent high quality evening meals, lunch menu not so nice. 
Only down side is there is no local shop, the nearest shop is down the bottom of the mountain which is around a 10/15 minute drive. A car is defiantly recommended, even the restaurant is a downhill 10 minute walk, let’s just say you need to be fit for the journey up again!
Overall we had a lovely week and George was very helpful - defiantly worth the money!
