Hello everyone !!!
I'm staying in Playa Blanca with my wife & young daughter. We are staying at the Sun Beach Appartments... Has anyone stayed here, if so are they any good ?
Also can anyone recommend any good restaurants as we love good quality food....
Cheers folks,

All the best,

Ash !!!!:D

No haven't stayed there and won't be if it means bumping into you...I suggest everyone gives this place a wide berth come September

Good Restaurants!!!...just ask the forum for the number of a good curry take away...

Ignore that idiot folks... It's just my Brother-in-Law being a prat !!!
He's naft off because he is going bald , and clinging on to his quickly disappearing Youth....
Any genuine information much welcomed !!!

Thank's,

ASH !!!

I got all concerned then... because our Seamermate isn't normally "off" with people lol. But al's clear now!

Anyway Barjiash. You're pretty close to the beach from there - just a 7 or 8 minute walk, dependant on where you are on the complex. Oodles of restaurants and bars to try! Look out for Brisa Marina and Tipico Canario on the seafront - as they're both excellent. Mamma Rossa is great for lunch too. L'arista is also very, VERY good!
One of our favourites in La Bocaina, which is by the petrol station as you enter Playa Blanca - you'll see it on the right as you arrive.

If you're looking for a good friendly bar, then get to the seafront.. turn left, and head for Playa Dorada Beach. There's a commercial centre there with a few bars, and restaurants in. We go to the Wax bar a lot (here's his website http://www.waxbars.com). If you go to his website, there's info on how to get a discount voucher for the length of your holiday. Highly recommended!
In the same centre, you also have a great little snorkelling company there if you fancy it http://www.snorkellingdelights.com Ask for Tracey, and tell her Elle sent you.
Upstairs from these two is "Made in Italy" which lots of people rave about. haven't been there ourselves yet - but we've certainly not heard anything but excellent reports so far.
Have a great time - and say hi to Seamermate from me and "The Alan"
Saludos... Elle

Thank''s elle,
Very informative .... Will certainly try your recommendations !!!
Sounds fantastic !!! As for seamermate i'll be seeing him for a few beers and to give him a good slap around his balding chops !!!

Thank's again,

Ash !!!!:D

Hi

Nearly everywhere you go you will find great staff and food. I would recommend you try L'Artista, Tipico Canario and pop down to the Marina and try Lani's Snack Bar. All great and kids more than welcome. Children are not expected to be quiet, so you won't have any problems at night with your little girl. The waiters quite often sit and play with the children, so don't be alarmed!
Hope you have a good hol

Hi Tracey (Snorkeling Delights),

Thank's for your info... Sounds great !!!!!

Went scuba diving in the Dominican last year , so i might just try your place out !!! (if i can convince the missus)!!!!!

See you soon,

All the best,

Ash !!!

Name dropper Ash..."I've been snorkelling in the Dominican"...but you'll be hard pressed to match that 500llb Marlin

Although Lani's is child friendly both the food and service is mediocre at best...better off at the Italian round the corner or Casa Rioja (you've been there with us Ash)...I'll find the names and post later...

As for the Town Centre try La Terricita for Tapas, L'Arratista you know about...wish I was there with you late September for the slap up posh Paella...happy times...

"SCUBA DIVING" actually seamermate !!! & whilst you were catching a marlin, i was swimming with one !!! HA HA HA !!!
Yes they were happy days... Remember some of the places we ate, especially the megga posh paella !!!!
Next year i think we should all go away together,for beer , wine and some fab food....
See you soon Seamermate !!!!8)

Almacan de la Sal I recall for the slap up shell fish Paella

recommend Aphrodite for pasta / La Giraldi fish / La Commendatore fish or meat at the Rubicon Marina

I'll be interested to know if Casa Rioja is open again...was always very good...but shut last year...

Ahhhh !! The goddess of love , sounds fantastic to me !!! I'll check out the casa riojca for you ; see what's happening... Cheers for now!!! Not long till Dubai !!! Happy days !!!8)

<font face="Verdana">yes mate serious heat at the moment...8)8)8)8)8)</font id="Verdana">

Your going to need plenty of cream on that increasingly large bald patch of yours !!!!!:oops:8):D:oops:8):D

Just back from 2 wks in Playa Blanca and had a great holiday. Stayed at Sun Beach Apts and I have to say that they were one of the best that I have ever stayed in. I highly recommend them.

Glad to hear you had a great time.... I'm looking forward to going now...!!! Glad the sun beach is good.... !!! 4 more sleeps....!!!
