The weather was fab. Our bungalow was very basic but it had everything we needed. Really clean & comfortable beds. Overall the interior of the bungalow we stayed in was tired but the one next door was being decorated while we were there. The kitchen / lounge area provided a dining table, stools as well as a sofa (bed) & chair. The kitchen area included a sink, fridge, 2 rings & all crockery & cutlery we needed. We sat out on the sunny (furnished) terrace each morning for breakfast and on several days had lunch there too. The pool is lovely with a generous area for the numerous sun loungers. There is a supermarket on site as well as several more close by. All sold much the same stuff at much the same prices and the one on site had lovely fresh bread/rolls each day. We used the on site restaurant on the first night & enjoyed a fab pizza. They also offer a take away service which is a nice touch. On subsequent nights we visited the Faro II shopping mall which is within walking distance. The shops weren't great but there is a good selection of restaurants. To get to Faro I you need to get a taxi which is about 3 euros each way. There is a taxi rank near to the apartments as well as at Holiday World (10 pin bowling, bars etc)
We took a public bus to Las Palmas (take a cardi as it's colder there) which was a really pretty place to visit with lots of sight seeing and great shopping. Approx cost I think was 7 euros each way per person. On another day we took the bus again to Puerto Morgan, very different and again very pretty. Great Irish bar served a great Irish breakfast which we had for lunch on our last day. It was an absolute bargain.
I nearly forgot to say, all the staff were friendly including the maid. They have visitors from all over Europe and probably have to deal with some difficult folk but we found them to be very helpful. I tried to book a trip at reception but the company couldn't take the booking ta that time, a little later the receptionist popped over to our bungalow to let us know she'd made the booking. Really thoughtful.
We booked allocation on arrival and I am going back again in June. If you want a cheap and cheerful holiday book this, if you want up market stay somewhere else.
