This is really good value for money I am going there twise this year and I must say this is just the tonic you need before Christmas , weather was so nice last year and its a fantastic hotel , with soul every night if you want it .

Only a matter of 4 months away now so if you are looking for a bit of winter sun you may like to try this one. Great beaches within an hour , Marbelle Porta Buenus just to name two.

Hotel includes a Gym a hairdressers indoor spa and a super market on the bottom floor that sells Wrights Pies ! Plus the hotel food is soooooooooooo good I enjoyed some lovely long lunches last year.

Me and Pam had a great break with you all last year, so really hope we can make it.

Fingers crossed eh. :thumbsup:

The biggest problem with the last event was the terrible accusations laid at my door and I would like to vigorously defend myself here on this forum!

The shorts I wore to breakfast did not have specially made pockets that are the exact size of three slices of bread, nor do I have a special pocket for sachets of butter. It just so happened that at breakfast I chose to carry my bread and butter back to my table in my pockets, as my tray was full. Each morning as I had such a great time the night before and was still thinking about the quality music played I forgot about said items until I returned to my room. By which time they could only be used to make toast with, so I kept them for dinner.yes.gif

This year I will be wearing different shorts, with more pockets, two of which are waterproof for no apparent reason.wink.gif

Counting down to an excellent week with the massed ranks of the the Newark travelling soulies. Can't wait!

How could you resist this ? The Marina is a 5 miniute bus ride under 2 Euros or 7.00 Euro taxi

A Bargain at under 250.00 for a whole weeks entertainment thrown in too !

I liked the place so much I took my Mum there two weeks ago for a treat , I checked out the pies , they have a freezer full , pluss freshly made bread and cakes everyday.

Happy hour is a "two for one offer " between 6pm and 7pm and internet access is free in the bar if you choose to take your laptop with you. Dead easy and a really fast speed.

Sea view rooms all sold out but space still available.

:thumbsup: Hi there...is it still possible to get a 7 day pass?...

Haven't booked anywhere yet but we usually have a week in Torremolinos but we thought we'd try Benalmadena this year and that this would be well worth a visit.

Hi Andy and Denise,

Myself and Olof thought we'd like to test drive a few days for you rolleyes.gif

Maybe a plan can come together for next year :g:

Just to let anyone interested know.....

Me and my girlfriend stayed at this hotel in Feb for a week. Purely by chance we see the posters advertising the soul week that's coming up. Fantastic we thought ! Couldn't believe our luck and booked up to go back to the hotel in Nov for a week when we got back.

Anyway....

for anyone curious the hotel is absolutely superb and coupled with the choons that will be played I'm sure this will be a cracking holiday for anyone into our scene.

(Wouldn't mind spinning a few meself if I get the chance !!)

See ya there !! thumbsup.gif

I am looking out my window at the pouring Manchester rain .... my god we need to escape !

Its only two weeks away !

The temperature last year was perfect , not scorching but hot enough to get toasted nice and brown.

I do hope we have the pool side quiz again , it was loads of fun last year.

run by these two lovely characters picture of Dave & Sarah below :

I agree the hotel ands its facilities are fantastic I don't know why but its very popular with people from Southern Ireland ? You get a large number of Irish guests who really know how to have a good time I noticed this last year and also when I went a few months back.

I would recomend the hairdresser on the ground floor the girls are so freindly and also the nice little boutique and gym /spa as well as the restaurant for serving some fab late lunches that set you up for a nice bit of afternoon tiffin .... or sleep :ohmy: prior to the evenings entertainment . My god its all within walking distance within the hotel !

Reminds me I must check in online ! :thumbsup:

Be great to have a name that tune Cd of just short intros wouldn't it :unsure: now that can be arranged :lol:

Bag is 75% packed and just got to add my CD's I am using on Friday night to my luggage and Saturday morning away we go.

This will be one of the few times I don't mind getting in at 1.30am to get up at 4.30am to fly to a week of quality entertainment.

Now a total of 10 coming from little old Newark. A couple more and we could have our own pool.

Looking forward to just about all of it, and if Sam Evans mentions my breakfast habits to everyone its a lie biggrin.gif

Hi Everyone,

9 of us went down to The Costa del Sol from up t'north in the Costa Blanca (Torrevieja), from the Monday to Thursday - only 5 hours each way ( Spain is a BIG country!)

Went to the venue all 3 nights and had a fab time.  That marble dancefloor was excellent and so good to dance on, although my legs were killing me the next two days afterwards.

We were staying down the road, so I never got the chance to pop along to the afternoon get togethers, to say hi and find out more about what has been happening since the days I used to go to the 100 Club, Peterborough, Stafford etc.  Apart from dj'ing at the Orihuela Scooter Club Northern Soul Nights a few years ago I had been out of the NS scene a long, long time.

It was great to hear some of the old classics and a lot of newer stuff - where do I begin to start catching up....lol?

I hope to attend the rare soul weekender in Mojacar next Summer and to get back down to the CDS even in 2011.  Also hoping to arrange the odd NS night in and around Villamartin/Orihuela Costa.

Regards,

Johnny

The two days which we attended were great fun, excellent mixture of location, weather, people and music. The downside was arriving back at cold, rainy, foggy, 'orrible Stansted a couple of days later - we felt like turning round and booking tickets straight back to the Costa. We look forward to meeting y'all again next year, and I hope they'll let me have another go on the decks - Sue Records guaranteed.

Mike
