Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Thanks for that John. Interesting about the three other villas under construction. Wonder if they are private or developers.
We will start phoning in morning also.

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Yes they look like it is a three for 2 swop so that two plots are developed with 3 villas. The curve has allowed the developer to have a very wide frontage at the fairway and he has advanced his builds toward that boundary so that you will probably see clear over the top of all three out toward Albatros.

Fadesa at CE no nothing as to when this work will start or finish. This is despite Fadesa at CE having promised that the improvemnts would start in Jan and then again after easter.
I have written to MF in Madrid to see if they can say when this will start....they referred me to Jaime at CE for an answer....I called Jaime he knows nothing and no longer works for Fadesa....classic.....Fadesa truly does not have a clue what is going on.....

For "Dantill" the very large villa being built on the uphill corner of the entrance to your cul-de-sac is already connected to electricity so your telephone call may be true this time!

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Thanks for that John. How did you find out that villa is actually connected?
Solicitors promised me this morning to email this afternoon with an answer and so far all I have received from them is a special offer for the golf membership as apparently I have just completed on my house!!! ???
Frustrating!!!

He was told to find the meter no of that plot and the meter no of my plot then ring Endesa and ask for me to be connected. Endesa will be able to tell from the meter no's how close they are to me and will connect, or not, if they are close enough. It really does seem to be happening!

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Just got back from our first proper stay in CE since we furnished it last September and I must say that it was marvellous. At times the temp hit 29.5 degrees. The OH actually went in the pool for a dip, not once but 4 times.
Unfortunately Mars was closed (maybe Monday is his day off) so hit the beach restaurant at Altura - very slow service but good food and actually got a bit tanned in the sun. Noosh was also closed (maybe Wednesday is his day off).Looking forward to our next trip.

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
There are some good restaurants in the area and I'm sure others will point you in the right direction. However, if you just want somewhere to have a reasonable meal then upstairs in the Plaza Mall has a number of cafes and restaurants and the Isla Canela Marina has a nice cluster of restaurants including Irish and Antipodean pubs!!

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Unfortunately RB, I would have to disagree with the list Marisol put up. I find that in Ayamonte itself there is a surprising LACK of what one would call quality restaurants - I mean something with some sort of wowo factor. In the list graciously provided, one has shut down and the another has changed hands, so not great as a guide, but a starting point nevertheless.
Huelva province-wise, you'd be better off starting from Isla Cristina or Islantilla, there's a couple of notable ones around Rompido and Aljaraque, but if it's real quality - and above all, variety, - youre after, then the closest you'll get it from Ayamonte is in Portugal, particularly the restaurants around Almancil and Quinta do Lago. A bit more expensive - but not prohibitively so, and more importantly, just the few euros extra results in a world of difference on your plate.
As for Luciano, first on that list, they'll see you coming at a thousand paces - biggest waste of money for very little return that you could hope to find

Hello Fortaleza
I disagree with you, anyway, against tastes there isn't anything written

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
I know of a few places over the years who have tried to vary the menu but have lost out on custom.
Yet maybe now is the right time for change. With the current wave of TV chefs plaguing the airwaves in Spain, people's palettes are arguably changing - note the recent plethora of "sophisticated" (not my word, but anyway...) restaurants to have opened up in the capital in the last 5 years.

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Nooo don't do that. Don't change the cuisine. I love it. The beach bars in Canela for Lunch and tapas in Ayamonte for dinner.
You can trot over to Monte Gordo if you want variety!!

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
Maybe you are right, guia Michelin thinks the same thing about restaurants than you, here is what they think. You have to write, in where there is written "CP, region, ciudad, lugar...." Ayamonte (huelva) and then push in "restaurantes michelin"

When you cook at home do you not have vegetables with your meals.
Maybe it is just the poor British way that our vegetables seem to swamp our plates and we nearly lose the meat. lol

Re: COSTA ESURI - AYAMONTE
i really like to have lunch and dinner in Ayamonte, i have found almost all restaurants i have tried, very good. The most important for me is the quality and this is always excellent. I don't like the "new cooking" maybe that is why i like the simple food cooking in a simple form but i understand there must be a lot of people who expect something more than for me can be enough.
