Travel Guide

Travel BookTrail style to Andalucia

The lives, loves and catastrophes of different nationalities staying in a Spanish apartment complex.

It sounds (as the cover looks) idyllic and summery.

“Today after months of preparation the apartments were ready for occupancy. The immaculate grounds were superbly landscaped. Lush flowering waterfalls of pink and purple bougainvillea cascaded over walls and balconies”

It’s in Andalucia close to Estepona and Port de Banus which are described also as jewels of Andalucia. And there’s plenty of jewels in this part of Spain Seville, Granada and Valencia to name but three.

The two swimming pools seemed in the earl morning sun as though the universe had cast handfuls of glittering diamonds into their still, azure water. A hint of a breeze whispered through the drooping green fronds of the palm trees dotted around the lawns, and the scent of mimosa and lavender added to the luxurious ambience of the gated frontline complex.
