I have a 3 bed, the only duplex on the development, apartment 233. It is on the 2nd floor and the 3rd floor (top floor of the complex so like a penthouse). It is a big apartment, 150 sq metres internally and with large wrap around terraces on both floors totalling 98 sq metres. It is in block 2 so faces over towards the marina with excellent sea views. It also has the benefit that it juts out by itself on block 2 so is relatively private. Let me know if you are interested. Paul

I was there last week. 
Basically there is definitely no second pool. I believe this is a major issue as the pool that is there is extremely deep and totally unsuitable for any child who is not an able swimmer. I am taking this up with my lawyer, as this appears to me to be a fundamental change in the contract, not a little change that they can get away with. 
The development is complete, it does need a good clean, Ros y Falcon are saying that the will be ready to handover "anytime", I think they mean weeks not months.
They said that we have 30 days after completion to snag.
One other issue for me is that as part of the development the promenade outside was to be continued and finished by Ros y Falcon. They are saying they are waiting for "permission" for this and it may take 2 years to resolve! If you have a beachfront view apartment it will be very interesting as to where  the weekend beach visitors park their cars, as at present it becomes a car park in front of the development. I must say this sounds suspicious to me.
Sorry to appear negative, but what I would say is that once you are inside your apartment the quality is outstanding.

My solicitor has spoken to Ros y Falcon last week regarding the second swimming pool. They stated that the second swimming pool was approved by the local town hall but following this there was an objection from the coastal authorities who say it is too close to the sea! Ros y Falcom are continuing to appeal this decision and if it fails they have an idea to put the second pool in some land next to Block 2 - I do not know where. They also said if I wished to cancel the contract they would refund me 50% of what I have already paid. My solicitor did say the contract does allow for them to make modifications if they are imposed by a government body, but if we do not get a second pool we have a good case for some compensation.
