Airport Alicante

This came in to me this morning. Can anyone give me an exact answer please.
HELLO

WE ARE GOING ON HOLIDAYS AND STAYING IN THE STELLA MARIS SANTA POLA HOTEL ON 10TH JUNE 2011

WE HOPE TO USE PUBLIC TRANSPORT AS TAXI FROM AIRPORT IS VERY EXPENSIVE.

CAN YOU PLEASE LET US KNOW HOW TO GET FROM ALICANTE AIRPORT TO THIS HOTEL.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR THE CHEAPEST OPTION AND WE PRESUME PUBLIC TRANSPORT IS THE CHEAPEST CHOICE.

THANKING YOU

MARY

There is no public transport from Alicante Airport to Santa Pola, you could ask the hotel that you are staying in if they provide transport, if not then unfortunately it will have to be a taxi, which will cost approx 30 euros

I don't think a Taxi would be that expensive, as the Hotel is only 4k from Airport

On this same subject does anyone know of a reliable taxi service from the airport to Urb La Marina. Rental cars are getting very expensive with the fuel surcharges and ours sits outside the house all week while we cycle around ! I've seen a couple of internet pre-book services. Anybody tried these ?

Hi Peter
Would it not be cheaper just to get a Taxi at the Airport. Then when going back there is a good taxi service from the rank on the strip. They will come to your villa and pick you up

We've pre-booked a taxi from the airport to the Urb for £64 return with Suntransfers.com. That's a third of the cost of a car rental for the week. We're out 3rd week in July. I'll let you know if it was a success.

I think it would be better to make this request on Grand Alicante forum and I am sure someone will help you.

As promised, a quick word on our experience with Suntransfers.com - excellent ! It was more like being chauffeur driven than taxied. They were waiting in arrivals for us and went straight to our door without asking for directions. For the return journey they were at our door bang on time. I can highly recommend them.

Oops, are we too late? or are they still waiting in the Airport ?
