Situated at the quiet end of Maspalomas, opposite the Green Golf, this well designed complex is a favourite base both for golfers (next door to the Golf Course) but equally attractive those looking to chill out, boasting two large heated swimming pools and spacious sun terraces.

" We wanted a relaxing week of sunshine... "

We wanted a relaxing week of sunshine and that’s what we got.

The bungalow was fine - clean and well-equipped. Ideal for two people but a possible squash if there had been three of us. The drying area was fab - make sure you take pegs though! The whole complex was clean and tidy with amazing flowers. The only down side was a noisy family opposite but I guess that can’t be helped. Reception also quickly dealt with the cockroaches that appeared a couple of times!
The pool was lovely with plenty of sun beds and shade - although it was Easter weekend it was never crowded.

The rep was ace - no hard sale and full of useful information - directing us to suitable eating places and being generally helpful.

The free bus service was good, the supermarket well-equipped and the trip to Garbo’s was cheesy but fab!

We had a top week and are going back next Easter!

" Location: Sandy Golf is away from... "

Location: Sandy Golf is away from everything. There is nothing to look at on route to the shopping centre with its restaurants. To get to the shops the path takes you across a dry dirty bit of wasteland.

The Faro 2 is only a 5 minute walk away but it is a bit of a concrete jungle with very little character. Good restaurants with similar menus on the top floor (all outside looking out onto nothing much)

Apartment Complex: Lovely design with superb gardens. We had very unusual weather in that it reached the mid 40's whilst we were there. This had the disastrous effect of bringing out all the cockroaches.

Every night despite spraying the rooms before we went out, the nasty creatures looked up at us as we entered the room. They were big and load of them. The staff did fumigate our block but still they reappeared.

We had to keep all windows shut at night to prevent the majority entering. Believe me it was hot even with a fan.

The pool got dirty by the end of the day and during the searing heat it did not get cleaned. The staff was very good and friendly at all times. I was thrilled to see that the Spanish chose it for their holidays -- always a good sign. There is no kettle in the apartment but there is a coffee machine.

The safety deposit boxes work on a code so no need to carry extra keys around. Keep your windows closed during the day or you will find a moggy asleep on your bed!

We used the buffet restaurant service in the Green Golf apartments opposite and found the food to be very good with a good choice. We also went across to watch the drag show which was a bit like pantomime dames but very funny (watch out men they will seek you out)

The free bus service to the beach ran on time and was fine. The staff at reception will call a taxi at any time. We visited the Yumbo centre but like many other reviews in this site stated we too were disappointed with it.

It had a somewhat intimidating atmosphere. someone offered money for my 15 year old daughter within 5 minutes of being there. The pressure from the restaurant touts is unbearable

World of Tui company as good as usual with flights leaving on time and very good transfers to and from the airports. we did one tour with them to see the whales and dolphins. The trip was well planned but beware of the number of passengers requiring the ubiquitous plastic bags! The whales were amazing but the dolphins were in hiding.

I would go back to Gran Canaria but to a different resort where you didn’t have to rely on buses or taxis to get anywhere. having said that, being a little far out did mean that it felt incredibly safe.

" An excellent base for a relaxing... "

An excellent base for a relaxing holiday. Lovely swimming pool - loads of sun beds. Try to get a bungalow near to the pool rather than on the side near the road - although its not noisy. Access to surrounding area good - free bus service available. Cheap taxis. Some excellent restaurants nearby - Faro 2 centre - Michelangelo (top floor) Good cakes, coffees etc Cafe de Paris.
Excellent steak - Cita centre Tibor (top floor)
Good cheap meals on the front at Playa del Ingles.
Cash money at the commission free exchanges - particularly in the Yumbo Centre.
Excellent island tour with the tour operator seems expensive but is amazing value. Don’t be frightened to go on the free half day blanket trip- there is no hard sell ! Local buses cheap and reliable - Atlantico centre(bus 69) good for shopping.
Don’t wait for the reps advice as she wasn’t great.

" I have been to these apartments four... "

I have been to these apartments four times and would like to go back again. I have been there on a girlie holiday, honeymoon and family holiday. It is so versatile it suits any holiday.
The apartments are always clean, as is the pool, gardens and sun terraces.

The Faro 2 sports superb views of the surrounding mountainous landscape on one side and sea view on the other.

There are many different restaurants to cater for most needs.

Would and have recommended these apartments to anyone.
