The Amanecer apartments in Alcossebre, which some portals advertise as Edificio Amanecer, are a residential block with a pool in the Carregador area. This page independently gathers its location, its features and an analysis of the public reviews, which in this case are spread across several listings and portals and should be read in context.
Where is Edificio Amanecer
Edificio Amanecer is in the central area of Alcossebre, around Carregador beach. Its guests estimate about 5 minutes' walk to the beach, the town and the seafront promenade, and describe the area as quiet, with views of the Serra d'Irta.
Carregador beach (El Cargador) is the main beach in Alcossebre: 850 metres of fine sand and about 70 wide, with a dune system of high ecological value, a seafront promenade, fully adapted access, a sailing club, paddle surf hire and a Blue Flag without interruption since 1987. Along the Senda Litoral you can walk to Romana beach.
Advantages of the location:
- Beach, centre and promenade a few minutes' walk away.
- A quiet area, without the noise of the front line.
- Views of the mountains from some apartments.
Worth bearing in mind:
- Some guests say access to the parking is awkward.
- It is not on the front line: the views, when there are any, are of the mountains.
What the building is like
According to the listings and reviews, Edificio Amanecer is an apartment block with a communal pool and a children's area. The portals also mention parking, wifi and a terrace.
The apartments are described as spacious and relatively modern, and some have two bathrooms, which is handy for families. Google shows, for example, a two-bedroom apartment listing.
What is worth knowing according to guests:
- There is no air conditioning, and in summer the heat is noticeable.
- The decoration is sparse, there is little storage and the kitchenware is basic.
- Mattresses and sofas appear as worn in quite a few reviews.
Some listings say pets are allowed; one guest, however, says they saw dogs in the pool area despite it being forbidden. If you are travelling with animals, or if you prefer a building without them, confirm with the advertiser.

How to read this table. The Edificio Amanecer reviews are scattered and mostly old (from 2015 to 2018), with a few recent ones from 2024 and 2025. In addition:
- Google (4.7/5, 16 reviews) does not have a listing for the building, but a typology listing ("two-bedroom apartment") with aggregated ratings from travel sites. It is the highest rating and the one that raises the average the most.
- Central de Reservas has two listings: "Apartamentos Amanecer" (7.2, 9 reviews) and "Edificio Amanecer" (8.4, 1 review).
- Tripadvisor (3.4/5) and Atrápalo (5.6/10) have few reviews and lower ratings.
- No listing has been found on Booking or Expedia.
Without Google's aggregated listing, the ratings fall in a more modest range. That is why, more than the average, what matters is what recurs.
What is appreciated
- Spacious apartments, some with two bathrooms.
- Closeness to Carregador beach, the town and the promenade.
- The tranquillity and the views of the Serra d'Irta.

- The communal pool.
What some guests point out
- Very worn mattresses and sofas, the most repeated complaint.
- Heat in summer, as there is no air conditioning.
- Uneven cleanliness, with dirty kitchenware in some cases. Cleanliness is the lowest sub-score on Tripadvisor (3/5) and Atrápalo (3.7/10).
- Sparse decoration, little storage and basic kitchenware.
- Maintenance that could be better in the paintwork and pool, and awkward parking access.
On Central de Reservas, the main listing gives 7.9 for location and 7.7 for services and price, and drops to 6.4 for cleanliness and 6.6 for facilities.
