Olee Holiday Rentals by Fuerte Group

We stayed at the olee apartments in torrox, We could not fault the property. We loved our stay and would come again,

I have only given a 3 as there was a fairly significant issue during our stay inasmuch as the old reception building right opposite the apartment blocks was being demolished all week (and on Saturday despite the staff assuring us there would be no work on Saturday). The noise was ridiculous and started at 8am. We were offered another apartment but standing outside it the noise was still very audible so there was little point in going to the trouble of moving. It is a shame as the apartment itself was lovely and the outside terrace too, but we barely got to use it apart from on the Sunday (couldn't use after 4pm either as it went into shade). Also the boiler kept going into an error mode. They sent someone to fix it but it still kept doing it (had to keep switching it off and on again). As has been said, you do need a car but it is easy to park on the street outside and save yourself 40 Euro.

The apartment was well appointed with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, kitchen with washer and dryer and a fabulous balcony. The views were amazing. It was an easy walk down the to the beach and to restaurant on the beach. The apartment provided free parking and was convenient to the neighboring towns. It was a very relaxing stay.

We had a very enjoyable week in these well equipped, spacious apartments, with a large terrace overlooking the Med. It's a shame that your'e expected to pay Euro 30 to use the on-site parking facility. There is plenty of free roadside parking (at least in October) but the complex is built into a hillside so you may well have an uphill trek with your shopping etc. We used the pool nearest our block (7) once and found a small pool, with about 20 people around it. Only two unused sun loungers remained both with backrests that couldn't be adjusted. We now know there is a much bigger pool area nearer block 5. It's worth noting that there is no snack bar, cafe, shop or other facilities on-site. Even the reception is about 500 metres down the road. We were only given an emergency out of hours phone number for reception, so any problems (we had an issue with the washing machine) required trips to and fro. Also we found the signage lacking when trying to find the pools and our apartment. For us the location wasn't good. It's between Nerja and Torrox Costa and has very little that's within a reasonable walking distance. Thankfully we read enough reviews to know that a car was necessary and booked one from Malaga Airport. We booked through EasyJet they made no reference to needing your own transport, we consider this a major oversight. We arrived on a Sunday around midday and wanted to get water and other essentials. All the large supermarkets are closed on a Sunday, so before we could even see our apartment it was a trip into Nerja find a parking place and find a mini market that is open. That was bad enough for us as an active couple with a hire car. For a family without their own transport it would have been extremely stressful.

My wife and I had an amazing stay!! Staff really friendly and even got upgraded. Accommodation is immaculately clean and has everything you need. Beautiful sunrise and sunset! Location is great as you are near Nerja and Frigiliana but I would recommend having a car. To top it off there our some cute cats they look after very well! What's not to like?!
