"Fantastic views, inspiring coastline and a truly peaceful and beautiful
location. Tim's detailed instructions on how to get there (which is easy)
and on local amenities and food outlets, entertainment centres and things to
do on day's out was a brilliant touch. There is so much to do, you need to
plan each day so that you don't miss it, and I highly recommend hiring a car
to take full advantage of the surrounding area, whether it's shopping or
sightseeing.The facilities in the apartment are top notch, providing
hotel-style comfort. We spent a week in Calpe at Tim and Anna's apartment
and came back fully refreshed and longing to go back - which we will! Thank
you so much!"

We have just returned from our (mid July) week at the Rubino, and have loved every minute. It was very hot all week, so we made the most of the pool in the afternoons and the local restaurants of an evening! Our evening strolls along the promenade were much enjoyed by all.
Everything went well with the apartment and everything was there that we needed. I was particularly relieved to find the hairdryer and the spare UK adaptor (though we also brought three with us!). Much appreciated also were the playing cards and the dvd player - Spanish tv is not good at all!
We would definitely come back again and would recommend it to others.
Many thanks.

We can highly recommend Tim & Anna’s apartment to you. We have been there twice and had a great time. The first time we went with other couple and we found the apartment totally acceptable for two couples and one child to be there. We found it clean and full of all the things you would need i.e. bottle opener and corkscrew. The pool area is great and ideal for young children as there is a separate kid’s pool. The apartment is situated in an ideal area as there are shops & restaurants in walking distance and the beach is just outside the door of the apartment.
On both occasions we had a quality holiday and would look to go again.

"We found Calpe to be a beautiful holiday destination, and the Rubino a beautiful apartment from which to enjoy Calpe and surrounding areas. The apartment was the perfect size for our family of 4, and offered us everything we wanted a clean and tidy apartment, with stunning views, easy access to the beach and town with family friendly walks. The pools on site were perfect for our boys one learning to swim and the other toddling around in the baby pool. The extra provision of under ground parking / garage and elevator were fantastic and enabled us to transport our family and baggage easily from car to apartment throughout the holiday. I would highly recommend the area, and especially the rubino apartment as a brilliant beach side holiday destination." Hope the above is kind of what you are looking for.... I think I should go into writing travel books????

The apartment is ideally situated, close to all amenities and the picturesque working harbour, yet far enough away from the main part of town to be quiet. The apartment itself is ideal for families or two couples sharing, having two bathrooms, two bedrooms, a well equipped kitchen and spacious living area. There is also a large balcony ideal for watching the stunning sunsets. There are sea views all around and the nearest beach is a two minute walk. The town itself is a very pleasant 10 -15 minute walk along the beach front promenade (ideal for early morning or early evening runs) and provides all sorts of shops and restaurants to round of the holiday experience. My wife and I visited in October and enjoyed 10 glorious days of sunshine and came back looking forward to our next Visit. Highly recommended.

The holiday we had in Calpe was incredible. The Rubino apartments are
fantastically appointed and furnished to a very high standard. We enjoyed,
the beaches, restaurants and local bars. We are already thinking about our
return trip. Book now, you will not be disappointed

My husband and myself stayed in Tim and Anna's apartment at the Rubino for 2 weeks in May 2009. Our daughter and her husband joined us for the second week. The apartment was plently big enough for the four of us, with each couple having their own bathroom. It was very clean comfortable and spacious.
The balcony was large with stunning views and patio furniture for 6 people.
The kitchen was very well equipped. We entertained 10 people for lunch on 2 occasions easily.
The bedrooms were comfortable with large beds and ample storage in the built in wardrobes. Ceiling fans in bedrooms and living area were a bonus and very quiet on a low speed.
The apartment balcony gets the sun in the late afternoon/early evening and can be very powerful.(Best time to dry the washing)
There are many restaurants in walking distance. Prices ranged from 38.00 euro for a 3 course chinese meal for 4 with wine, to one of our favourites Por Que No which is a Dutch restaurant in the old town serving fantastic food at about 30-40 euro per person (starter and main course). Another favourite is Patio de la Fuente in the old town, run by English people.Set menu 20 euros per person 3 course. Not open every night, try the lamb it is wonderful.
The pool area at the apartments is clean and well maintained.The pool is not heated but that was a blessing as the temperature was 27 most days.
I would not hesitate to recommend this apartment as it is perfectly placed to be near beach/restaurants but just far enough away from the main town area to be peaceful enough to enjoy the sunset from the balcony.
