Hi all, we completed last Friday (05/09) and brought up with Polaris (before we signed on the dotted line) the low wall between the terraces.   They said that they did not see any issue about putting up something on top of the wall but that was something that had to be agreed with the community when it is set up, so hopefully long term that won't be a problem!

We were also told by Polaris that they will be completing the Club House on the Island,  but then they are not going to build any thing else until the market picks up again.  Seeing as we were told that on the same day as another gentleman was told it would be a grassy area who knows?

Over all we were very pleased with the Apartment, only a few minor issues - but we are confused by the wiring in the second bedroom - ie directly by the door and the wardrobe and not in the centre of the room.  We have been told by Polaris that is where the wires are supposed to come out and are the same in all the apartments.  They also have a wire (we presume for the bathroom mirror) coming out of the ceiling just above the sink.    Has anyone else that has completed noticed this?  if this is standard/normal for Spain,  what sort of light fittings are you putting up?

After we completed our snagging list, we have since noticed in the Kitchen that one of the wall units, next to the space for the Fridge-Freezer is not level so check carefully when doing your snag - it was missed by my Husband and Father-in-Law!!

Does anyone know what Polaris are doing with the electricity cables that hang around the island, they look temporary but .....?

We have some more photo's of the island if anyone is interested but I will have to email them to you as I can't work out how to put them on here.

All the best and good luck with forthcoming completions/moving in.

We are completing on Friday 4th September and doing the snagging on the 2nd.  We are in block 4 and any tips regarding what to watch out for will be gratefully received.

We have been fretting about the project and PW give us a different timescale every time we speak to them or depending on who we speak to.  The last we heard the Signature golf course will open in November but we werer told 9 holes would open in June so any feedback from the ground would be welcome.

Also has work started on the club house on the island?  Are any of the shops in hte new shopping centre open yet?

Thanks and see you around the bars or pool.

Being an olf fashioned Brit I expected some sort of documentation and formality in the mortgage set up process but to date have received no more than the very occasional e-mail.  Telephone contact is very difficult and the people are to be frank unhelpful and rude.  Am I alone in this experience?  Can anyone re-assure me that this company is better than my experience suggests?
