In our latest successful case against CLC Continental Resorts (Club La Costa), heard at the Arona court in Spain, the judge was clear in their criticism of Club La Costa and described the business as misleading to customers.
The Arona court judgement centred on key failings in the agreement, including insufficient information being provided to the consumer and a contract term exceeding 50 years. On that basis, the contract was declared null and void, and our legal team secured an award of £18,379 for our client.
This Club La Costa court case outcome also sits alongside wider progress in related proceedings. In addition to this decision, we have received six further favourable jurisdiction judgments against CLC, confirming the court’s approach to where claims can properly be brought.
The contractual names involved in those jurisdiction rulings were:
- CLC Sucursal
- CLC PLC UK
- CLC Paradise Trading
A central point across these connected matters was the court’s recognition of Spain as CLC’s operational office. As a result, the court accepted that the legal claim could be brought in Spain in line with the applicable law. This is a key procedural finding for those following a CLC Continental Resorts legal claim in Spain, as it clarifies the court’s view on jurisdiction when the company’s operations are treated as being based in Spain.
