Hi, I am just back from Almerimar yesterday and I wish I had read these comments before travelling. I didn't bring a measuring tape but definitely wish that I had. My apartment is in block 4 on the 4th floor and is probably a month to six weeks away from completion of building work. My overall observations from the trip were that the area was still very quiet, there were a good few retired couples staying in Hotel Almerimar but very few families with young kids. The apartment complex looks excellent from the outside, the external finish is to a high standard. The interior was a disappointment, the corridor/ hallways were quiet narrow and it felt quiet clostraphobic. The biggest disappointment I had with my apartment was with my balcony. The views are not great and it was fully covered. Also I had the external part of the air con unit mounted on the wall in the balcony, this takes up a bit of space. At this point my wife is going to head back out in the next few week to have a look at the apartment but if the decision rested solely with me I would choose not to complete. I will post some pictures tomorrow of the general complex and of the interior of my apartment just to give people a sense of the size of the interior. I spoke with Sam from Proendal 150 apartments are currently unsold in the complex.
