There is a gym at the Hotel Corazon (on the hill above the golf course) - you can join for the year or pay for a month at a time. Its usually quiet in there but they have some good equipment.

Indian Restaurants

Can anyone recommend a GOOD Indian restaurant - Ive tried the one in Benimar and found the food very bland. Ive also tried one in Rojales which wasnt great. I believe theres a new one opened in Doña Pepa? There used to be a good one in El Raso but this has closed down....Dont really like Spice Hut as there are always cats hanging around there which puts me off !

We love Agra Indian restaurant in Guardamar on Avenida Cervantes which is on the main road behind the promenade. The food is delicious and the staff are really friendly.

There is a new one in Doña Pepa and it is very nice - they do an evening menu which is around €13. The guy who runs this used to work at the one in Los Montesinos (Punjabi Palace?). Punjabi Palace is also very nice and their buffet is well worth the money but I think is now only available on a weekend.

Scooter hire

Can anyone tell me if there is somewhere locally that hires out scooters please

Benijofar

Hi there,
I have a scooter for sale at a really good price if you are interested! If you have a holiday home you could keep it in garage and make use of it every time you come instead of renting one. Regards

Thanks but don't really want to buy one.

Commented Alison Arnott in Benijofar 2011-05-29 23:55:43 UTC

Thanks Bev - I'll look into that.

There used to be a company called Richies in Benijofar that rented out scooters / mopeds - they were originally on the high street but not sure that they are there any more. Might be worth googling them to see if they still exist?

Commented Lesley in Benijofar 2011-05-31 11:43:46 UTC

Hi Lesley - Thank you very much for the info, I have googled and found a link to Richies. Many thanks again.

I dont think Richies are in Benijofar anymore as the unit they were in is all closed up. Having said that the might have relocated.

Summer School

I understand that there is sometimes a summer school held at the school in Rojales - does anybody know anything about this? Is there one in Benijofar school also and if not, can children who dont go to the school in Rojales still attend the summer school or is it just for children that attend the school?

Commented totally-dance in Benijofar 2011-05-26 18:26:27 UTC

Hi Susan, Can you post details of your summer club - my children are 13 and 11 and I want them to be with children of similar ages - would it just be english kids or spanish too?

Commented Kiara Sullivan in Benijofar 2011-05-27 07:46:36 UTC

Hi i don't have full details at the moment but will post them soon x

Commented totally-dance in Benijofar 2011-05-31 16:34:33 UTC

Hi, I am actually looking at summer schools for english children who speak spanish! I wondered about the one at the school as they would be with lots of other spanish children rather than english. Thanks anyway chalk-face,

GREAT AREA

I have just come back from a few weeks in the Torrevieja area and had the chance to visit La Zenia for the first time when I went to a business Exhibition that was on last week. I must say it looks very nice, and well worth a trip back. Its great to see one of these websites open up to cover this place I will keep an eye on events

Hi
I don't normally recommend restaurants but i was so impressed by Posh Palace, near mercadona and Lidl off the n332 ,La marina. Its the best indian ive had over here and it compares highly to my favorite Indian restaurant in the UK, and thats in Bradford!

Commented Bumblebee Prints in La Marina 2011-05-31 18:05:06 UTC

the bombay palace in catral is excellent very small inside but excellent food also punjabi palace in montesinos is good but service there the last time we went was not good a very grumpy waiter who really didnt want to be there but it wouldnt put us off going back

Commented cafe vienna in Quesada 2011-05-31 19:53:03 UTC

We must say the Punjabi Palace in Los Montesinos offers some lovely food and have been a couple of times as my husband is fond of indian food and a lot cheaper than in the UK.
