Apartamentos Castellsol, Arenal d'en Castell

Request a front-facing sea-view apartment for the best bay outlook; upper rooms receive more sunlight.

Request a top-floor apartment for the best views, extra balcony space, and access to a roof terrace; lower terraces are more exposed.

Request room 103 or 104 for some of the best views across the bay.

Request room 210, 208, or 206 for a sunny top-floor balcony; room 210 is also quiet and has a sea view.

Request a sea-facing apartment in blocks 1 or 2, especially block 1 rooms 101–108.

Pay extra for a two-bedroom apartment with a sea view; consider a second-floor option such as room 102.

Consider the rear apartments for a quieter stay, or room 305 for a road-free position with good views.

Choose self-catering rather than half board; the half-board food was rated poorly.

Bring matches for the gas hob.

Bring an electric kettle because the hob kettles take a long time to boil.

Prepare for no air conditioning in the apartments.

Choose any apartment if you are happy with a pool or sea outlook; all apartments face one of these.

Choose an apartment facing you when entering the complex; apartments directly on the left are more dated.

Consider a second-floor apartment for strong views.

Consider room 211 for a quiet outlook over the beach.

Bring earplugs if staying near Fiesta Hotel and Midnight bars, which can be noisy in the evening.

Rent the safe for €20.
