Poor maintenance

Speak to your neighbours or the administrators?

I also can't undestand why  they not use / renovate the club house? will it reopen sometimes? 

best regards

As far as I know the hotel part has never been finished, many rooms no windows installed and the surrounding area a wilderness. The golf course and club house were for sale one minute, taken off the market then put back on nobody knows what is happening. I agree with you it is a mess, we first went in 6 years ago for Christmas dinner it was diabolical haven’t eaten there since. We have called for the odd drink but even that isn’t up to scratch, very depressing. The lakes could be low due to water shortage, it has been a very hot summer with little rain. Sorry Puerto I know you got the full bucket full a couple of weeks ago but the rest of us are desperately needing rain.

Hotel is finished and fully open, so please don't talk tosh Ginger. As for a 'wilderness., what planet are you on? Have you ever been to La Torre? (why make things up or guess when you don't actually know the facts?)

Given the damage caused by the Gota Fria several years back, particularly to the basement and infrastructure of the hotel, we were all delighted that new owners invested so heavily to get it back open and running again.

The hotel has hosted several football teams for fair weather training in the past couple of months alone and the rumour is that England's Lioness' will be staying next month. Can't imagine they would stay in an unfinished hotel, along with a host of guests this summer

The golf course is not currently for sale and is owned by GNK, who also own 3 other courses. Apparently the course at Condado is potentially up for sale, as reported in Murcia Today. 

It is a real shame that a lot of the 'general' areas on La Torre are not open, but this is down to unrealistic rental requirements from the owners (whoever they are!) 

Rental for the golf shop went up to €100k per annum when the lease was up for renewal, hence the reason they moved onto their own property on the golf course. Not great, but in these hard times, totally understandable, especially after two tough Covid years with hardly any income for the golf courses and their owners.

There is a huge square meterage of general areas in the town centre that has been unoccupied since it was built. It would take a massive investment from someone to develop, but residents are ever hopeful.

Hopefully reality kicks in and the owner of the various properties decides that realistic rental income is better than no rental income. We can but hope.

We currently have three bars and three restaurants on site, plus the Woodhouse (beside the golf course) which is open until 6/7pm serving drinks and food. (This doesn't count outlets in the hotel itself!)

A lot better than most resorts in the area, so hopefully residents and guests will continue to support, perhaps encouraging others to try their luck and open new ventures.

Of course the Hilton Hotel is still open and the Soccer National Teams from USA and Equador stayed there four friendship games 23.09. - 28.09. at Murcia.

And the golf course was in very good condition for such a hot and dry summer. Greenkeepers works ever day.

Restaurants and the bars were also open and with a lot of customers ever day.

In my response I was referring to the abysmal state of Camposol golf complex, I passed earlier this morning and it hasn’t changed. gem in his response derides my comments and then goes into  a PR campaign fir La Torre. GEM gives the impression La Torre is now. Beautiful and thriving, no doubt it is but tge original poster was querying the sorry state of a golf complex, obviously not La Torre. GEM  please put brain into gear before becoming another keyboard warrior.

If Ginger took the time to see where the OP is located, he would see that it is La Torre. Get your facts straight Ginger. It's not all about Camposol.

Enough said!!

Unfortunately the area I think we are all relating this topic too, is still very shoddy and will soon need a major refurbishment 

The vacant shops located around the town is also a worry as they are unoccupied 

Nobody I have spoken to can even give me a contact for information 

I run a shop in England and would be interested in the possibility of running something here so if anyone could help get a contact number I would be great full 

On the whole the resort is lovely 👍😎😎

Thanks

Agreed Paul

As I said in my post, most of that area has been unoccupied since being built and will need a huge investment to get it back to where we would all like it. Given the unreasonable rental ambitions of the owners, this unfortunately is unlikely to happen anytime soon.

As for the rental units in the town centre, I too made enquires a couple of years ago and was met with responses similar to yourself. No one could (or would) advise who the owner was!  I approached the Resort Administrator (Admiburgos) and they advised to contact the woodhouse owner to try and find out. 

Quite ridiculous advice and I eventually gave up, as it seemed it was going to be easier to find the location of The Holy Grail!!!!!

Whisper has it that the owners of Golf Property Store (in the town square) either own the units or have access to the information you are looking for. 

If that is indeed the case, it amazes me that a Real Estate Agent on the Resort would not want to get the units rented in order to get the resort thriving more.

Again, hopefully there are now more realistic aspirations rent wise from the current owners and we can see a full, bustling and resurgent town centre and resort. (including the area around the golf course)
