Hi all Penthouse owners
We are a Danish family who has purchased a top floor apartment in block 13. We are in the fourties, and we have two boys aged 11 and 16, and we intend to come to Spain once or twice a year and otherwise rent our apartment out. We look very much forward to the sun and warm weather and beautiful views from the apartment. I hope that over the years the Oasis and other parts of the resort will be living and in vigour.
My wife and I visited the area in January 2007 and we were fascinated by the beautiful nature with the mountains all around the resort and local beaches close to Mazarron. It's nice to see that these beaches are not overpopulated by hotels and concrete blocks stuffed with apartment like many other parts of Spain.
I have a special reason to purchase an apartment in southern Europe in the sunny Spain : I am an amateur astronomer and in Denmark conditions for observing stars are miserable. Just like you have more than 300 sunny days a year in Costa Calida, you have 300 clear nights, warmer comfortable weather, dark skies during the summer season (in Denmark it never gets completely dark between the beginng of may and the beginning of August), and finally all stars are 17 degrees higher in the sky to the south. You can actually see towards the center of our Milky Way, which you can not see from northern Europe at all.
The best thing would have been to bye an apartment far away in the mountains, away from any streetlights, but my wife wanted to be close to some sort of civiliszation. Over the years, Condado de Alhama will grow to a small city with quite a lot of light pollution, but I am quite sure conditions will always be better than here in Denmark.
Looking forward to meeting some of you in the future 
Best regards, Claus Bagger.
