I do not believe some of the things people come out with. The Turbo Club is brilliant for the money you pay. You are not in a 5 star hotel. The food is very good, is repetative but to be exspected. The rooms are kept very clean and tidy,maids and the rest of staff were very... more

We liked this complex due to its compact size and quiet location. There's not much around and you need to take the free courtesy bus to the beach, but hey, it’s free! The entertainment is not very good, but the all inclusive drinks get you in the mood, so it is bearable.... more

My wife and I spent 2 weeks all inclusive at the Turbo club in July/August 2010. Whilst I am a vegetarian, I found the food ok. Service was good, and once we spoke to the staff in their native tongue, it became excellent. Any criticism can only be aimed at (sadly) the... more

We've just returned from a week at this resort having travelled independently and booked direct on an all inclusive basis with the Hotel. We paid 800 Euros for a family of 4 (children of 11 and 13) and would say it's good value for money. The apartments are all the same... more

We stayed at the Turbo Club for a week from the 26th May. I was worried sick about going with two children (4 and 6) after the reviews that I had read. We arrived quite late as we had hired a car and had trouble finding it. The man on reception who was obviously just a... more

Item stolen from room!
I booked the turbo Club for myself and my boyfriend for two weeks in August. First reaction was that everything seemed quite nice and room was very spacious and clean. When we went down to breakfast in the morning the food was very limited we didnt really eat the breakfast much throughout the holiday. The pool area is nice and I quite liked the fact that they didnt allow people to take the sunbeds until 9 so that everyone got an equal chance of getting them (nobody likes to be up before 7 on their hols to get a sunbed!) Lunch was ok if a bit limited and although they had a selection of meats they were not of a high quality and I was reluctant to eat them so it was pretty much fish fingers and chips everyday. We did venture down to the beach on several occasions which is very nice but the shuttle bus does stop taking people down just after 12 and so on days where we wanted to go just for the afternoon we had to get a taxi. We normally went out to one of the centres in the evening and i have to say that the Yumbo was the best with loads of shops and bars and very funny drag acts! We decided to cook some simple food in our room on evening and as they supply nothing to wash your dishes with (if they did i would have been happy to do them!) we left them for the cleaners to do, however they were not washed for 3 days!! The main warning is to not leave anything in your room of value. We had a mobile phone taken and so did the couple next door on the same day. Neither rooms had been broken into so we can only assume it was the cleaners. After complaing to both out rep (David) and also the hotel manager they did nothing to help apart form point in the direction of the police station. I was appalled that they did not care and acted as if it happened everyday! I think that if this had not happened we would of had a great time on hols but this was a real problem. The entertainment in the night is limited but a lot of fun and the kids club was great. The two guys that organised it deserve a medal for all the work they do and it was alot of fun!
thanks for the tan
the food and staff were rude and horrible had to eat out every night they cater for germans and the germans still have a chip on there shoulder against the english bed sheets were not changed cockroaches every where on the one day we spent at the pool i noticed the chefs in full uniform clearing up someones vomit wit cigarettes in there mouths totally disgusting we would not recommend and would never go there again,drinks were there own brand fake malibu,brandy,rum etc your'e only allowed 2 drinks at one time and that includes water food was half warm if you like german food raw chicken flies on the salad bowls the spanish kids are very rude and nasty to the english kids they popped the inflatables at night so the next day our kids did not have any if this review saves at least one person from going there then i feel i have done something to save you from wasting your money
not happy
one week here proved to much we arrived at 5am taken to meal which was cold leftovers dirty plates food on floor not a good start then came our rooms with no veiw 8 palm trees in space of 5 rooms.rooms were nice but had cochroaches in bed and bath room all week.got a boat ride from rep 287 euros turned out to be a con all we did was pick up locals go up coast park and thought we could use jet skis that we had paid for were there but no locals used them and we ran out of time when we did get one my daugts only had 5 mins then was told to get off i complained but they just lauged.18 euros wasted totall con.back at hotel some sun some swim days later someone was ill it happens but imagine my horror when a cheff came to clean it up.he could notmanage to do it so he went back 3 more came discusting.all in all not very nice.lanzarote for me or futventura never had a problem there with 6 or 7 hols
Don't be put off
We booked on a booking agent website on the 14th Aug 2006 for a departure on the 19th August. After the deal had been done, I looked on the website. My stomach sank! We had just paid alot of money and look at the reviews! I was really worried. So much so that I rang both the booking agent and the firm responsible for the accommodation. They stated they had no knowledge of complaints regarding the Turbo Club. I agreed to travel with an open mind but made a promise that whatever our experience, we would post a comment, good or bad. Well, we're back now, so here goes! The rooms were clean and in the 2 weeks we were there, only spotted 2 cockroaches. The bathroom was huge and spotless. We were in an upstairs apartment, so security did not worry us too much but I have to say we always double locked the door and shut the windows when we went out. As to the all inclusive element, this was our first time so we have nothing to compare this with. I would agree with someone else's assessment that this was full board with free drinks (1000hrs to 2300hrs). There are no ice creams or snacks available during the day. The 1530hrs - 1630hrs slot is cakes only (one place stated there were salads and pasta at this time.. not true). Some of the dining room staff appeared to resent the fact that we were able to have free drinks and were slightly surly in the attitude. I would ask them to remember that we have paid for those drinks, along with their wages! The food was plentiful if a tad unusual at times (chicken burgers for breakfast??). There were always salads available and at least 2 types of meat dishes. Veggie meals were infrequent, but then there were always the salads....If you are the type of person who likes to eat burgers, chips and pizza for two weeks then you may be a little disappointed. In conclusion I think we agreed that it would have been good for a week but 2 weeks of the food was too much to stomach! I began dreaming about being able to choose freshly cooked vegetables from a menu! Entertainment was provided in three languages including mini disco for the under 8's, Maxi club competitions for young adults (pool, table tennis, darts,) and water based activity such as water polo and aerobics. All our 12 and 9 year old wanted to do was play with the other children around the pool. The Turbo Club is conveniently situated for the Wednesday and Saturday market, 2 water parks to suit younger and older children (adults included in the latter), a fairground site (tickets cheaper if obtained from your rep, if you have one) and if you go to the more adult waterpark, take enough money to buy a ticket for a second visit if you want to, as they are cheaper once you are inside the park. We had a very relaxing holiday and may even go back at some stage but only for a week.
Nothing wrong with The Turbo Club
I have just come back from a week's stay at the Turbo Club. The accomadation was great, there is plenty of space with a lounge/kitchen area, good sized bedroom and clean bathroom. There are two nice swimming pools and the hotel in overall is clean, fairly modern and tidy. The food was average, it was fine for one week though may be a little repetitive if we were staying for two. I think it is good quality for what you pay, I have seen much worse hotels around. I found the staff all pleasant and organisation good. Some people have put the price of things wrong in their reviews. Basically on the last day you check out at mid-day, if you would like to keep your apartment on for the day you pay 20 Euros per person which includes carrying on the all inclusive. If you would just like to keep on the all inclusive for the day it's 12 Euros each. I was worried going to the Turbo Club after reading some previous reviews, however I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. If you're after a chilled out reasonably priced holiday then you'll be fine at the Turbo Club.
Awful Holiday!
I have never written a review in my life but i was so disappointed with this hotel i dont want others to make the same mistake! The rooms are ok but NO AIR CONDITIONING which meant it was so uncomfortable and unpleasant all the time. It also meant nights with no sleep and definately not the romantic trip my boyfriend and i had hoped for. You can buy an air conditioning unit - for 60 euros plus a deposit! As the hotel is relatively cheap it also attracts a few young singles who make noise until the early hours and as there is no security on site this continues through the night until police are called! The food is terrible and unhealthy which means you have to eat out a lot which defeats the object of being All inclusive and is very pricey. The staff are very rude and so unhelpful. After working hard all year my one week off was totally wasted on this hotel. PLease take my advice and stay away. Gran Canaria is a lovely island so please still go but avoid The Turbo club!
A.I ha,ha
i stayed here 4 2 weeks and was glad to get home. the food was very poor ,hardly any choice and it tasted vey bland. its not AI its more full board with free drinks. at feeding times they close the pool bar and you have to go to the main bar. the waitor just moves and no one is left to serve at the pool. instead of self serve drinks they serve you and your only allowed 2 small plastic cups at one time . which is a hastle when you want a drink and the kids want one . maids come in and empty bins, if your lucky they brush the floors aswell. sheets are changed once a week, which is crap as you sweat all nite with the heat as theirs no air-con. kids club is 1 guy who does his best to play games with the kids for an hour or so. the kids disco is 4 songs at nite. then the same guy gets people up on stage to play games. this is the entertainment at nite. no shows,no disco, no acts. the management dont seem to care about entertainment at all. half the waitors think you are a hassle to them not guests. ive stayed in many *3 places before and there excelent, but this place was terrible. the pool isnt to bad,if your luckey enough to get a sun bed. avoid this place if possible.
worth a visit
this hotel was excellent. the rooms were very spacious with a separate seating area and good size bathroom. the pool was always clean,and also had a jacuzzi for cooling off in. the food was great, always a variety of fish pork chicken beef salads and fruit. only downside was the location, a free bus was provided to the beach as we were far away from it, dont listen to the moaners, you get what you pay for, and considering we paid cheap for this, it was anything but, it was a fantastic hotel and we will visit again
Great Holiday!
I have just returned from a 2 week holiday from this hotel. And i can tell you that some of these reviews are wrong....we found the found to be very nice but a bit repetitive. The staff are pleasant enough but they have their off days like anyone else. The apartments are spacious and clean, but do be warned that puchasing a safe is advisable as the maids have a tendancy to steal you belongings and putting them into some-one elses room. The enteratinment wasn't up to much standards as it finishes at 10 -10:30, there are bars and clubs around and are very cheap to get to. All inclusive stops at midday and you can pay an extra 12 euros each for your meals or 40 euros for your room all day and your meals are included in the price. Overall the pool was clean and we are thinking about returning to this hotel later on in the year.
Just for the sun...
I went to Turbo Club for one week (it was more than enough !) I found the apartments were nice and spacious but are cleaned only five times a week, because, cleaners don't work twice a week ! beds were changed once a week . All Tv's are pay slots! MOST OF THE STAFF was rude, NO friendly, polite or welcoming. About the food it is one canteen style restaurant with limited food serving times, and the food is most of the time extremely tasteless and no effort is made. Drinks are very limited to local beer,wine, vodka,bacardi and malibu and coffee liquer, the orange juice is disgusting. BE CAREFUL!!!! The last day, the all inclusive stop at midday, you will need to buy your lunch and dinner !!! My agency and the representative agent never told me that! So, its such a surprise when you alsmost spent all your money and you have to wait with no room until night before the flight... There is a free bus to the beach but only in the morning until 12.00 which means that you have to choose between your lunch at 12.30 or the beach. The taxi is cheap however. There is no nightlife around, you have to take a taxi and go to the main shopping centre where you will find lots of pubs and restaurants. Except the beach, there is nothing special to visit, only shopping centres, hotels and tourists. Exceptional weather however (between 30 and 35° everyday and no rain at all !!!!!!!) I don't recommend at all this hotel.
