Suche läuft ...

Eine Woche im August 2010 auf Gran Canaria bei brühender Hitze (was schön ist). Warmen Meerwasser und wirklich meistens entspannten Leuten! Kann Gran Canaria eigentlich immer nur empfehlen um nach 4,5 h Flug eins. zwei fix in der Sonne zu sein!! Fand es allerdings etwas zu weit weg vom Nachtleben und werde wohl nächstes Jahr wieder näher an das EKZ Kasbah ein Quartier buchen. Dafür gab es an der Rezeption massenhaft hauseigene Bonbons ;-) *mmmmh*

Just back from break there on the 27th April 2013 - For the record we have stayed here for the past 4 years straight primarily for the view and location yet despite paying for the most expensive sea view option on Lowcostholidays.com who we have always used and despite always being put in foors 4 or 5 this time we were put on the 2nd foor..not a lot in it you may say however these rooms come with pay tv and noise associated with the pool and not so nice views and no LCD TV with dvd - on protest we stated that we had paid the top rate for what we had always received yet were given the option to"upgrade" to the 6th Floor for the discounted rate of 10Euros a day instead of the usual 30 apparently...this we reluctently paid as we had brought over some Dvd's and music to play (sad I know but just a nice change from always going out and catch-up time) and despite protestation and as requested they would not budge...2 rooms later we just accepted the fact that the only difference was 2 sunbeds and a parasol and an open plan...still no working kitchen or bathroom wall lights and broken shower window opener - that and the fact that the place was at best a third full! Hence my strongest advice would be book the cheapest option you can before travelling (If you really must stay here that is) then at least when you see what accomodation they allocate you at least the cost they demand for an upgrade will not be a surprise - Our 10 days cost ¿¿427 plus the 100 Euros on top...do the maths first as there are several hotels nearby with just as good views but without the surcharges! As a footnote these Apartments are sore lacking some even basic maintenance, the cutlery etc is extremely basic and at times useless - exceptionally Hot and record breaking heat (106F on Saturday 20th) made these apts very hot and stuffy with no optional fans or AC - we found the resort very quiet this year compared to the last 3 - we also found our best meal the last night up the Europa centre - the Bull If I remember (1st left in main corridor lower level walking towards the Dino Supermarket) - their Sirloin was lush - the Indian restaurant on the 1st Floor of the main commercial part In Puerto Rico was pretty good as well...the "hot" option on the Korma was lovely - All in all would we recommend these apts?...no way is the answer - their shady business practise and poor condition of these apartments should make you think seriously about why you would want to spend your hard earned cash on them when there are plenty more out there who deserve your custom and by all accounts in view of the downturn in visitors there may welcome you in a more honest manner.

Just got back from our stay at Palmera Mar apartments (Apr 20th-25th 2013) & glad we took the upgrade for an exception view & lush suntrap. (from 3rd floor) I have to agree about the worn out pillows & think a fan or air con in the rooms would be a fantastic feature but the negatives end there! Fantastic, polite & extremely helpful staff. Breakfast buffet was basic but kept us happily filled until lunch & when we ate an evening meal at the restaurant we were looked after very well & I had the best juicy kebab I've ever eaten! Good accommodation for reasonable price! Good location but definitely get a taxi back up the hill... 3 euros, why not!

Went easter 2012 half board.Location on top of hill,nearest beach amadores, which can be seen from apartments high up. Help yourself basic breakfast.,set meal at night 3 courses (choice of 3 ) .Tried to cater for vegetarians . Rooms basic,clean ;and comfortable. pool heated (bliss) .Bit of a steep hike to beach .Enjoyable stay

I stayed there from the 7th-14th of march, place was perfect location 10 min walk to beach and 5 min walk to Europa centre. I wouldn't walk back up hill from beach but taxis cheap enough could walk up and bk from the Europa. Wouldn't pay for bed n breakie tho not much to select from apart from toast and cheese. . The room we paid for was sea view and it was amazing looking out at the beach and sunset, we found the beds ok too but it's not 5 star so. . . I am going back in sept. The reception staff were so nice and helpful and the pool was stunning real clean and the snack bar was nice too. People giving out bout the standard rooms are right tho they are disgraceful but we paid b4 we went for sea view and its worth every penny, would recommend to anyone this hotel
