If you want something a bit more lively a ten minute walk on two minute taxi (very well priced) takes you into the centre with all the lively bars, clubs and a larger selection of restaurants.
It is a nice walk up there having a look at other peoples apartments, there's a really cool crazy golf course on the way and a few shops. By the time you've visited all the bars and clubs a taxi is probably the best idea for returning - unless you stay on coke all night!
In my opinion I think this makes the ideal location, not only are you within walking distance to most attractions, you are not too close to be bothered by noise from the bars and clubs.
Thomson offer holidays to these apartments and offer a few excursions. There's not much other than the pool for children actually at the apartments, although being so close to the beach ...
Advantages: Nice accommodation, cheap, close to beach, pubs, restaurants Disadvantages: Bathroom smells a little of waste - but could be masked with air freshener
Stayed in these apartments a couple of years ago. Four of us stayed for the price of £400 for two weeks. Bargain. We were on the 2nd floor. The room was a two bedroomed apartment with separate living room/kitchenette and bathroom. The accommodation was cleaned with tiled floors that were cleaned regularly by the maids.

Beach walk within 5-10 min walk so good location too.
Only let down really is access to the apartment is through a dimly lit reception that doesnt seem very welcoming but once you're through it all is fine.
Secondly bathroom smelled a little of sewerage as ...
Advantages: Great View, Clean, Good Pool, Large Room Disadvantages: Away From Main Centre
The Apartment
We were allocated on arrival, we knew it would be in Puerto Rico and three stars and when we arrived at night and shown our room we were pleasantly surprised. The room is spacious with a large bedroom and living room/kitchen. The kitchen is small but has everything you need, including a kettle and toaster.
There is a TV in the room that you can pay for at reception, although we didn't bother as there's much more interesting thing to be doing.
The first thing we noticed was the amazing view, we spent many hours just looking at it. All the rooms face the same way so all rooms should have a similar view.
The room is clean and there is a maid service on what appeared to be every other day. We did have a cockroach in our room on a couple of occasions and used the broom to brush them out, there are ...
