I would be interested in hearing about other people's experiences of Parques Casablanca.

In particular, now the development is nearing completion we have encountered significant difficulities obtaining a mortgage.  Apparently the development has been registered as an 'Appartment Hotel' and as a result UK banks won't lend against it (this is definitely the case with Barclays and NatWest at least).   I understand that this is due to restrictions on use that are often imposed by the local planning authorities when they approve the development of this type of property versus a 'normal' residential development.

I would be interested in hearing anything positive or negative that other buyers have to say about this or any other issues at Parques Casablanca.

Thanks in advance

Adrian
