Arrived at this apartment just after midnight to find the whole place was locked up. We were left stranded and could t get into our room. Rang numbers outside on board to find we couldn’t get through to anyone. We tried to get another accommodation for the night as emergency and everywhere was fully booked. Had no option but to sleep outside the reception on a chair with 2 young children. This was disgraceful. Owner or manager came in at 7 in morning to give us key and said what Happened. When explained he wasn’t bothered just said there’s a number to ring . No apologies at all. After a few hours sleep I went down to complain about what happened sleeping outside on arrival with 2 kids. The young mad on desk was so so rude. Basically saying it’s not my problem you should have rang the number. I said we couldn’t get through. He was waving his arms everywhere saying it does work. Again no apologies. Shocking attitude and bad communication on arrival. Rooms never got cleaned or beds and towels didn’t get changed time we was there. Never had that before in apartments. No one maid.

The property is in an ideal location with many great restaurants and bars within walking distance. We had a 3 br- 2 bath apartment which could use some updates but overall we were very pleased. The front desk staff victor and David were very pleasant. Honestly, if the pool didn’t close at 5 pm, I would give this place 5 stars. The lifeguard kicked us out at 5 “due to an ordinance” which sounds strange but ok. A lifeguard isn’t necessary. The shower pressure was amazing but the tub itself could use some help and it was also very slippery. With a little paint and updates, this place would be quite nice but we didn’t mind it because of the great location. Washer was great to have but be prepared to dry your clothes for 2 days on the drying rack.

Ona Campanario is at the top of the hill. A 10-15 minute walk from the roundabout at the bottom. There are restaurants, bars and a couple of small supermarkets nearby. There is also a money exchange and office where you can book trips. There is a bus stop just outside apartments, the bus (119) that takes you to Fuengerola is less then a 5 min walk. You can't pay by bank card, either use cash or bus card. The beach/boardwalk is a 20 minute walk. Calahonda is not a rowdy place, was pretty quiet when we were there. The apartments are very spacious. We had a 2 bedroomed apartment. One double bed and the 2nd twin beds. I think the settee was probably a bed settee, the living/dining area is large. The beds were very comfortable. Plenty of wardrobe/cupbard space. The kitchen had everything you would need. A sealed packet contained, dishcloth, sponge, laundry and washing up liquid. Toilet rolls and hand/body wash also supplied. Plenty of towels. Everything was spotless. Cleaners changed bedding and towels halfway through the week. Dated accommodation, you can see what would benefit from upgrading. The pool area is kept tidy. Staff seemed friendly an helpful. We were in room 36, a ground floor apartment with a patio/garden. A bit of sun at the bottom of the garden about 1pm but that's about it. You could here some noise from other apartments but generally it was pretty quiet.
