Just a little reminder about our Pool etiquette on Playa Bastian.
Would all owners kindly remember that placing towels on sun beds to ‘reserve’ them in their absence is not acceptable, especially at this time of year. Please respect that other owners and their guests are equally entitled to use them, this being the case any unattended towels and effects may be removed at the owners risk. Would owners please advise any guests that may be using their property.”

Following San Juan yesterday, Luis has checked the Beach for Zone D’s sun beds and the rest of the complex for any damage resulting from San Juan. No problems reported at all, a perfectly normal night.
Luis visited the complex between 11 and 11.30 pm last night and the zone was quiet. As you may know Luis made several phone calls to the Town Hall regarding San Juan to ensure we were totally aware of any potential problems on the night.

Ref opening the gate to central road on Costas advice, under the threat of Fines.
On Thursday this week, several lorries arrived on the Promenade and proceeded to unload with Cranes a huge generator, several large containers and erected a Marquee on the Beach. This I discovered was for a wedding reception. One would imagine at substantial cost. On the day of the Reception, Friday, prior to the guests arriving the Costas, Local Polie and Guardia arrived and the event was cancelled. This incident shows we cannot underestimate the authority of the Costas.
An amazing situation!

The kerbside area on our North Boundary is being repaired and painted and the work is near completion. The fence to our Northern Boundary will be repaired and strengthened during the next few weeks.
We would like to thank the owners who have remarked that the Complex is the best they have seen it. the Maintenance Team have worked hard to achieve this result.
Please speak with Luis should you require any Garden work carried out and not approach the Team. This system works better for continuity and stops any confusion.
