DescriptionGround floor apartment with private garden and underground parking. The complex is fully enclosed with security gate/intercom entrance, safe and ideal for families with children.

Al Andalus Thalassa received the Best Urbanisation in Almeria award at the Spanish Property Awards in 2006.
There is a dining table and four chairs on the terrace. There are two sun loungers which can be used on the patio.There is a selection of herbs in the flower beds - rosemary, thyme, mint, parsley, marjoram - which are ideal for cooking. Because the nearest pool is located on the other side of our apartment block, pool noise is minimal even though it is only two minutes walk away. Both pools are large with shallow and deep areas and separate paddling pools. All outdoor pool areas are fenced in and supervised by lifeguards. The indoor heated pool (18 x 8 m) and the indoor whirlpool are open all year round.
Just a 5 minutes car drive away is Vera Playa with miles of golden sand which is ideal for all. A small part of the beach is a naturist area. There are many other excellent beaches just a short drive away in San Juan, Garrucha and 5 miles of Mojacar Playa. Beaches have lifeguards and beach bars in the summer. There are fantastic fish restaurants in Garrucha and an abundance of bars and restaurants in Mojacar to suit all. The landscape is easy on the eye - only 3 storey buildings allowed.
The apartment is located within 10-15 minutes drive of 4 great golf courses to suit all levels of golfer. Also close to a driving range with a putting green and 2 hole pitch and putt. The courses are: Cortijo Grande 9 hole soon to be 18, a very relaxed but challenging course set amongst orange groves and hills. Desert Springs, 18 hole par 72, its Indiana course is the first desert course in Europe and has been built to full USGA specifications and quality standards of the now famous desert courses of Arizona and California. Marina golf in Mojacar 18 hole par 72, this 18 hole course has 9 holes located near to the beach which are flat, and the remaining 9 holes are on the side of a small hill, resulting in varied shot-making. Valle del Este, 18 hole par 71 has been integrated into the surrounding landscape by making use of indigenous vegetation. There is a good combination of very challenging holes with other less strenuous holes, and there are wonderful views.

There are some excellent scuba diving and snorkelling areas along the coast of Almeria. There is a go-karting track outside Garrucha less than 10 minutes drive away.
