A couple of reasons, my dad has stayed there twice, 2011 & 2012 IM week, and has booked in again for next year. he has also stayed at a few others in carmen for training holidays and swears by the costa calero, everything is top notch apparently. Food, rooms, 50m salt pool, Also be good to stay with them.
If I were going over alone I'd settle for cheap and cheerful in the thick of it all, but the wife and our 2 year old daughter are coming, and I want to make a bit of a holiday of it as well. So all inclusive at the costa calero it is
We'll still be spending time around Carmen race week, practice swimming the loop, couple of runs, so will still be able to soak up the atmosphere, but get away from it and relax also
