It was comfortable and clean. They have a good/spacious parking spot. Had mostly morning sun on balcony which allows you to have shades open all afternoon which is nice. Host is responsive, understanding and seems to care about the place but couldn’t help much as he is away and the place is managed by a company on his behalf. Regarding the apartment complex: we have been coming here and staying in different units for the last 3 years. It has been a great option for relaxation with family, especially with children. Lots of space to run free, playgrounds, pools, etc.
BRISAS VARADERO is a recently renovated apartment in Santa Pola where guests can make the most of the pool with a view and garden.

We had a great time here, the room was clean and adequate located in a lovely narrow street.
The owners and staff are so friendly, when we left and got home we realised that we had left some clothes in the wardrobe, we contacted them and they bagged them up all very neatly folded and took them to the mainland next day for us to collect, so very very kind of them, we shall definitely be returning.

Tabarca is a small island (only 1800m by 400 and some 22km from Alicante, but a 25 minute boat ride from Santa Pola (there are many boats offering cheap tickets to the island). A one-night stay would be the best for most people but it's a great place to relax and take short walks for those who want to spend more time there. The islet is a marine reserve with clean transparent water surrounding it. There are no cars so the air is clean (apart from when the boats arrive in the port). It's not a place for serious trekkers because it is very small and even children walk round the entire island. The sights are mainly of the flora and fauna (loads of seagulls defending their territory and much biodiversity and the odd dolphin can be spotted), coves, a church, a museum, a small fortification, a light house and and a cemetery (all, apart from the church, divided from the zone where the hotels and restaurants are). There are also a series of smaller islets and the remains of the old military walls (built as part of the coastal defence of Alicante).
It has many bars and restaurants and the general level of the cuisine is very good. The larger and better known restaurants are on the expensive side but it is possible to find smaller places with good daily menus at a fair price. If there are no clouds, the skies are very clear at night, which make Tabarca an attractive option for anyone interested in astronomy (once you are away from the more built up area). At weekends and holidays the island really fills up but most tourists return to the mainland before nightfall, which makes evening very pleasant if you plan to stay over. The people who live on the island and serve the public are also very friendly. It's very easy to get around on this island so no special plans are necessary. Sun rises and sunsets are highlights as well and the fresh air and views of the coves and sea.

Just a lovely island with history.
If you are going for a beach day take swimming shoes as it is very rocky and slippery.
Lovely bar in the square which we really enjoyed.
Not to many restuarants open on a night.

All rules kept regarding COVID
Loved the walk around the Island.
Found a lovely restaurant, with a Pirate 🏴☠️ out front.
A lot of restaurants were closed for evening meal, we presumed this was due to COVID restrictions.

Unfortunately the covid crisis has hit the island , was very quiet and finding something to eat is a challenge after 6 clock , also is expensive to eat and drink. I totally understand that the island has everything brought in on boat but 8.50e for a beer and a small tonic water is steep !
My last visit was 3 years ago and the cost of the return ticket had increased 50% . 10e to 15e. Still if you go for the day and take comfy chairs and some refreshments, which you see others do , it is a good day out . There is a beach area and small sandy coves to stay all day.

If you want to chill, switch off, get back to nature...then this is the place for you. I wouldnt go in peak times personally, October is fabulous. The snorkeling is amazing! The fish are friendly and huge!!!! I feel it is a bit of a rip off, but that’s to be expected as it’s an island! So just be sensible! Also I feel that they should do more about cleaning up the place after the tourists have left for the day and maybe make it clear that they should take their rubbish with them!!! More signs not to litter, look after the environment etc. the cats are also a problem near the restaurants. If you like cats, this is the island for you!!!! All in all, I love Tabarca and I want it to remain the beautiful island that it is!!! Keep the oceans clean and take your plastic home with you! ps...I cleaned the entire beach shoreline this morning....it took me 25 mins to collect a small bag of plastic waste. Why don’t the islanders do the same??? The sunbed guy? He could get off his butt and do that every morning??!
Been to the island many times but never stayed there, it was amazing staying there, so peaceful at night, amazing restaurants, the hotel staff were very helpful and the breakfast the next morning was amazing overlooking a wonderful scene. The staff were very accommodating and helpful in everyday, friendly and made you feel very welcome.
