The bathroom has shower cubicle, WC, wash basin and washing machine.  The kitchen has plenty of cupboard space, oven and hob and is open-plan with the lounge area.  The bedroom is separated from the rest of the living accommodation by a partial wall, and has a fitted wardrobe.  The apartment is tiled throughout.
There are plenty of communal parking places available both adjacent to the apartment and at the entrance to the urbanization, a short walk away.  A reliable fibre-optic internet connection service is available.
The excellent Pimiento's restaurant is located on the same urbanization, where you can enjoy fine dining at a reasonable price on their beautiful terrace with fantastic views!  You can walk into San Miguel on a slight downhill path which will take you about 20 minutes.  If you don't fancy the walk back, the local taxi service is excellent.  The area is very popular with cyclists too.  Mil Palmeras beach resort (which ranked in the top 10 in Spain in a recent article in El Español newspaper (here) is only a 15 minute easy drive away down a country road that takes you through pine forest and citrus groves, and the golf courses of Campoamor and Las Colinas.  There is also an excellent open-air public swimming pool in San Miguel de Salinas (see photos) open during the summer, with very reasonable entrance prices (you can take a picnic too).

San Miguel de Salinas
San Miguel de Salinas is a very popular Spanish town just 15 minutes drive from the beaches of Mil Palmeras, Campoamor, Cabo Roig, La Zenia, Torrevieja, La Mata, Guardamar etc and surrounded by beautiful countryside which includes citrus and almond groves and the national park of Sierra Escalona right on our doorstep. You can walk and cycle for miles along the canal which runs right next to the town.
There are a great variety of bars and restaurants, both Spanish and international (almost 30 in the town centre alone, which means the annual tapas run event is very popular!!). If you are looking for a holiday destination or a place to live all year round, San Miguel is a great choice as it has all amenities (primary and secondary schools with excellent reputations, banks, health centre which never closes, 3 pharmacies, large outdoor swimming pool, football and athletics stadium, 5-a-side football pitch, tennis courts, padel courts, basketball courts, petanca, crown green bowls etc) and a healthy mix of Spanish and foreign neighbours.
The pace of life is gentle and relaxing, and prices in the bars tend to be more reasonable than the coast (a glass of good red wine from the barrel will set you back just 50 centimos in some of the bars). The weekly Wednesday street market is a great opportunity to stock up on locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables, hams, cheeses, olives, clothes and shoes etc, before having a drink and tapas in one of our friendly tavernas!
There is a good local taxi service and buses run several times daily to Torrevieja, Orihuela and Murcia. Alicante and Murcia airport are both approx 40 mins drive away. The local internet company provides reliable, high-speed (fibre-optic) internet connections. San Miguel is a place where you can enjoy a taste of traditional Spanish life and culture, without foregoing the benefits of top-class facilities and amenities. It is a very friendly place too, which we think you will love!
