Camino Algarrobo Mirasol 886, Algarrobo, Región de Valparaíso, Chile
A private resort of around 8 high rise buildings, (approx 800 apartments total ) each with their own pool and spa, with one of the world's largest swimming pools, used only for kayaking and only available to residents. Stunning views from the apartments over the pool and ocean. Coffee shop, restaurants available. Apartment was filled with older style furniture and soft furnishings. Needs modernizing. We visited during off season, so minimum people around, but swimming pool was closed for resurfacing and restaurant was closed. Worth a visit.
The best is hearing the ocean all night. We slept beautifully. We spent a month with our grandchildren and was fantastic for all. We walked the perimeter of pool onto the beach every morning and kids went on water slide after walk. Afternoons were either kayaking or paddle boarding or indoor pool depending on weather. Movies were shown on beach at 9pm every night. Little carnival walking distance. Cute tourist town within walking distance. Small grocery store across street so fresh food daily. It was hard to leave!
Old fashioned market. Cute stuff. Interesting. Worth a visit. Can also take a boatride around the port.
Really cool place to visit if in the area. It is crazy big and has a lourve pyramid in the middle. Right on the beach with amazing coastal views.
WOW is all I can say about my stay at San Alfonso Del Mar. The views, the tranquility of hearing the ocean, the staff members attention. This by far is one of my favorite and most memorable trips that I've taken. We had a slight problem when checking in (no hot water, gas wasn't working and the heater won't turn on), but maintenance came within minutes of us calling and resolved the issue. The rooms were equipped with all the necessities, blankets, towels, plates, cookware, spices, entertainment... We technically could have stayed in the property during our vacation and it would have been just fine. I loved that the place had ample options of where you can lounge about and relax. Side note: There is absolutely NO signal here in the rooms, and the WiFi signal at the lobby is annoyingly slow. I own a small business and although yes I am in vacation and need to disconnect, there are certain things that need special attention. Luckily my brother was able to tether his data for me.
