As for the resort itself it was great, 5 pools, bars, restaurants. If your looking for a relaxing time with great weather and views to die for then this is for you. The walk into town takes about 10 mins or a taxis for 2.50, once in the town head straight on to the old town where there are old restaurants a plenty and bars and clubs, even in the back streets you'll find bars and places to visit. Hire a car from wendys in the high st and drive around its great, including the mountains (trust me i don't do these) but these were great. The dunes are huge and you drive threw the middle of them when the sand goes into the road, there's a couple of bars to go to, coolers run by lesley and jen just down by the music sq and then theres sadie's worth a visit but gets very hot in their, sadie by night and kenny by day. Another place to visit is ajuy, go and look at the ship wreck before it is lost forever,and then theres el cotillo. Don't go to lanzagrotty its not very nice. Great places to eat the little restaurant down by the harbour next to the little candle shop they do great paella and the staff are nice and friendly, you can have mexican, steaks chinese and pizza's, if your looking for a steak then go to the argentina steak house it's great and they do the best ribs i have seen in a long time Don't forget to go to the beach but be careful the sea can be a little wild We love corralejo so much, we are going to live there, the people are so nice and friendly,we have been going now for the past 5 years, 4 times a year so for me and my husband it's like going home Go and have a great time and say a big hello to everyone
