Hi All,

I'm Jim and I thought I'd introduce myself to the forum. My wife and I are in the process of buying in block 286 and hoping to complete sometime in May. We have friends who bought on phase 1 a couple of years back and so we have been out ourselves two or three times and loved it so much we had to buy one ourselves, particularly at the current bank prices. 

Anyway, that's the background, what I'm hoping is maybe some of you might have some advice on things to do, places to visit, restaurants to eat at, good beaches etc. Maybe some good little bits of advice, things to look out for or avoid, that sort of thing

I'm hoping to learn as much as I can, so any help is much appreciated

Thanks again and hello

Jim

Hi Jim

We have a place in Roldan, there are a few nice bars like Bugatti’s, Amigos, Harp Bar and the Park Bar. Also has a nice Indian called Gateway to India.

Also some nice bars in Balsicas we go to Spanglish a lot.


so many place to go if you have a car can provide. Lots of places we have done since we bought the villa in 2019.


let me know what you are looking for and maybe we may bump into each other out there

Hi Russ,

Thanks for taking the time to reply and providing a few places to visit. Our friends love Spanglish so we will definitely go there and Gateway to India sounds good as others have given me this one. I will try all the places you mention, so thanks for the tips

We are expecting to get the keys by the middle on June, so will likely be early July when we visit. It will be the first of many though, so we'd be happy to meet up. Stay in touch and we'll sort something out soon

Cheers

Jim

Hi Willow,

We haven't moved in as such as the purchase hasn't completed yet. We have been four times now as our friends have a place there and we love it. It is quite quiet at the moment as there is  a bar / restaurant and Spar supermarket only at the moment. More apartments seem to be selling so I'm sure that is going to change. We're really excited at moving in and intend to go as often as work allows

I'd go for a few days and see what you think?

Cheers

Jim

Hi Russ,

We are over from 19th June to 3rd July, so perhaps a beer might be in order

Cheers
