"We had a fantastic stay at the Los Alcázares Oasis apartment and couldn’t fault it. The apartment was beautifully maintained, with spotless rooms and inviting communal areas that immediately made you feel relaxed and welcome. Jamie was exceptional throughout our stay — friendly, attentive and always happy to help, telling stories of his 3 peaks adventure, which really made a difference. The pool area was peaceful and well looked after, perfect for unwinding, and the overall atmosphere felt calm...
