This is a SHORT review
This is a little known town about 20 mins north of Benidorm. In total about 40 -45 mins from Alicante airport. You need a hire car if your going to stay in Calpe. To my knowledge there are no Package holidays here. There are hotels in Calpe though!!.
We use my Aunties villa when we stay there and have been going there as a family for in excess of 20 years.
The town / beaches etc are one of those places that you just warm too and fall in love with. The town has mainly 2 beaches. Both very clean and safe for families. It's also home to a huge rock which you can climb to get magnificent views accross the bays.

We were getting quite positive vibes and when we went back to reception they said our apartment was ready we were almost on a high.
MAYBE I SPOKE TOO SOON:
We drove around to near our apartment and went up to the top floor, no lift but we are quite fit so that is not a great problem. We struggled with the old key in the lock and eventually got in. It ...

Estella Hotel Apartments is based in Limassol in Southern Cyprus where I stayed for 6 nights in late April/early May of 2009 with my cousin. The booking was made via Expedia.co.uk and worked out at approximately £200 for 2 of us sharing a twin apartment (just £100 each basically). Before I confirmed the booking through Expedia I went off and did a bit of research on the hotel to make sure I wasn?t getting something that was cockroach infested.

I received a reply in very clear English very promptly and then started a chain of emails between myself and the very helpful contact at Estella, a lovely lady called Helen (who was away in Australia during ...
