Hello,
We would like to introduce ourselves, we are two families buying a duplex facing towards the Pueblo on the lovely veranda complex. Lee and Andrew, my wife Sam and myself Glenn, are hoping to finally complete this Wednesday, fingers crossed as we are flying out Thursday due to us booking flights two months ago as we thought we would have completed by this time but did not allow for the laid-back Spanish (I guess that is part of the charm and the reason we are so excited to own a home in Spain) I have been reading the forum weekly since the start and feel I almost know some of the "regulars" like, Trisha, Pauline and Noreen from Thalassa who seem to have great knowledge of the area and their complex. We feel we had to come forward now as the situation of the swimming pool times will effect us also and we desperately would like to see an opening time from Easter to after half time in October as we also have children all be them older but still in high school. Also, we strongly feel that the spa area should be open for the whole year as was explained to us as a selling point for this development. So we would definitely be giving our full support as the way forward is as a group but this does need addressing sooner rather than later to make this development a lovely small retreat for us all.
The four of us would also like to add and would like to know if anybody else at the time of purchasing was told that the original pool shape from the model in Key Mare office would be changing to allow for the community once set up to decide whether to purchase and have installed a telescopic winter pool house. You can see an example of one during the colder months as you drive towards Mojacar as the hotel Marina Playa have one (having stayed there in January we saw this first hand and the outside pool was being well used by the guests, I doubt if there pool is heated but it may demonstrate that even on warm days in the winter with possibly some investment we could use our pool also) As Key Mare were explaining this to us it made perfect sense as we are such a small (perfectly formed) complex that to have a heated indoor pool would be too expensive but this was their vision for Veranda, I hope this makes some sense and may be the answer we could all be looking for, I have spent some time on the Internet looking into this and have found a website with pictures etc if anybody was interested (the good news is their main office is in Alicante and the UK) As this is my first time on the forum i don't know if I can post this address could somebody please give me advice if they want to know more, anyway, hopefully may get round to meeting people next week as it sounds as if there will be many people visiting Veranda.
Glenn
