Las Colinas Apartments Reviews
" Costa Teguise "
Submitted By: Martin Turner
Very good accomadation, cheap and cheerful as expected, its only somewhere to shower and get your head down after all.The hotel bar is good too. Lanzerote is brilliant if you like exploring, so book a hire car before you leave and pick-up and drop off at the airport. The cost will be the same as not paying for transfers and a taxi fare everyday. A drive round the Island is worth it anyway. Go to Tiramanfyer national park, the visitor centre is brilliant and free!
Playa Blanca in the south is great for a day out and try the ferry for a 45 min. journey to Fuertaventura.
Pueto Del Carmen is fantastic for shopping and a long stroll along it`s beach and picturesque harbour area. But the best beach by far is at the little town of Arieta, a bit of the beaten track and unspoilt but the swimming is fantstic. Be warned that there are hardly any Brits. so you might need some Spanish, but the local restaurants next to the beach are great.
Costa Teguise is a well behaved place with a welcome lack of lager louts, but plenty of places to enjoy a night out. I strongly recomend The Dolphin bar, very friendly with a great fun quiz every night. The Scots and Rye in the Centre is worth a visit for a knees-up, and dont miss a visit to the tapas bar near the Los Molinos hotel on the main road.
Enjoy!

" Excellent accommodation "
Submitted By: Mr Malone
The apartments are very spacious indeed! Whilst not in the main resort it's only a 10 minute walk to the Beach (Playa Bastian) as well as bars and restaurants. My girlfriend and I enjoyed being just outside the centre, plus we were close to the waterpark! Las Colinas is a very modern resort and very clean. We cannot complain about anything. Would definitely recommend it!

" Well first off all, a key point in... "
Submitted By: Mr TC Carey
Well first off all, a key point in which my fellow holiday makers should know is that if you have a flight in which it is delayed and you arrive late after 9pm you will only be able to get food and drink from the town centre as the Shop is shut in the apartments. Myself and my family were very dissapointed that Thomas Cook did not provide any food or even WATER when we arrived late from the airport.
Just arrived back from the apartments, in which i spent a lovely seven days, but there are also people who love to put towels down at 8 in the morning to get the space by the pool side. The apartments could benefit hugely by gaining new staff in some of the bar areas espially the Shop area.
The apartments were very big and spacious and clean, we had a pool side view and a sea view with a sunny balcony in which my father farted many times on it and enjoyed the odd smoke. I unfortuntaly was burnt very badly so i spent my times indoor mostly.
The apartments are about a 25 minute walk from the main resort , but we mostly got Taxis to the town centre for about 3 euro each journey.

Submitted By: Mrs V Bradford
We have just arrived back from Los Colinas and we had a fantastic holiday! The one bedroomed apartment was ample for two people, we had a very clean living room-dining area, fridge, microwave and two hobs for cooking. The bedroom was large with ample storage and access to balcony from bedroom and lounge. We had a lovely sea view on third floor, and there's a lift too.
We were a 10 minute walk from Playa Bastian the local area where we had numerous wonderful meals, look out for Steptoes, a great English Bar, does a fantastic sunday lunch. The hotel provides a courtesy bus 3 times a day to Costa Teguise the main town but we actually discovered its a 25 min walk along from Playa Bastian beach so we walked down and jumped on the courtesy bus back.
Thoroughly recommend the tourist tours as there is lots to see. The 'South Tour' with last minute travel was outstanding, we had a lovely packed day out. We also visited Playa Blanca market which is better than the well-known Teguise market.
Overall we had a fantastic holiday and plan to return next summer!

" Perfect holiday!
Me and my... "
Perfect holiday!
Me and my boyfriend booked this as a cheap last minute deal and it turned out to be the best holiday we have been on.
The apartments are very clean and spacious, we had a view of the pool which was also a nice bonus.
Its about a 15-20 minute stroll into the centre of costa teguise or 2-3 euros in a taxi, (its a nice walk though). In the centre there is a good selection of restaurants/bars, (we enjoyed a very nice mexican meal).
There is also a smaller strip of shops,bars and supermarkets closer to the apartments about 5 minutes walk away, ideal to walk to, to stock up on drinks.
There is a small shop on the complex which sells mainly the basics, all the staff seemed very polite and helpful, when we needed help or directions.
The apartments are cleaned very regularly, along with the towels and bedding.
Its also great that it is joined to the apartments next door so if you fancy a change you can go and sit around that pool instead which is a bit livelier, as the one at las colinas was very quiet.
It is an ideal place for young couples (like ourselves), older couples and families with young children (there is also a play area for the young children), anybody who just wants to go away to relax.
The apartments are in a beautiful location just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the towns but close enough to be able to acess them in the evening for your meal.
Overall i cant find any faults with this place, apart from the pool was a bit cold. The hotel also put on a free shuttle bus that runs down to the beach 3/4 times a day, and will bring you back from where it dropped you as long as your at the stop on time, which i found was very handy as the beach is beautiful.
We had an amazin holiday and intend on going back in the near near future.
Also if you get chance, try the pizzas from the pool snack bar, they are gorgeous! x

" Just got back from Lanzarote on the... "
Submitted By: Miss S Tucker
Just got back from Lanzarote on the 3rd January 2008. The place is lovely and the people over there are so nice, friendly and helpful.
The apartment had so much space and was very clean and fresh. The people who work there are very helpful.
The pool is nice and looked great for kids, one thing with the pool is you only get the sun in the morning and a bit in the afternoon but as I'm not a lover of sitting round the pool, we took a walk down to the town and beach most mornings to catch some sun!
The walk from the apartments to town only takes 10 - 15 mins if you don't enjoy walking and not an active person then you might not like the walk.
If you have kids or is an adult but still acts like a kid (ME), the apartments are right next to the water park.
We went self catering, myself and boyfriend it was the best thing we done. There are so many places to eat and the prices are great.
I will be going back there in June 2008 cause the people, the hotel and the weather was brilliant.

" Apartments were spacious and clean.... "
Submitted By: Mrs J Rutterford
Apartments were spacious and clean. Air con in living room but with the doors left open the cold air circulated nice! There was a refundable deposit required for the air con.
Balcony with sea and pool view - Fab! Not many sunbeds but the apartments were quiet so there were enough beds to go round. Pool looked nice but absolutely freezing could of been a bit cleaner.
The bar was actually a bar/shop which was mostly empty, but the apartments were twinned with the next door apartments where the bar was busier. I think most families were allocated these apartments.
Staff were helpful. The resort itself was about 15-20min walk, a small resort which would suit young families or older couples. Couldn't find a nice beach, the one in the resort was not very big and very rocky. Irish Bar and Ma Bakers were good for sports and beer!
Had a fab time and would definitely return to Lanzarote. Booked through lowcostbeds.com

Submitted By: Mrs S Woodhouse
We booked our holiday on the net through Broadway Travel. We travelled on Dec 25th 2006. There was seven of us, when got into our hotel it was perfect in every way. We had a room on the end which had the bedroom on its own and all our rooms were near each other.
The maid came in most days and cleaned. Christmas day we had a take away dinner, it was our firs xmas not be home, it was nice not to have xmas in your face. The weather was good and nothing was to much trouble. We found food was value for money and got a good english breakfast at Garys just down the road from us. We ate there most the week as at night they had some think different on the menu and we never had a bad meal.
On new years eve we went down to bay and ate and watched the fire works. I was looking to go to Las Colinas for xmas this year but remember if don't have transport, book your taxi for return journey to the airport as they are a little hard to get on new years day. We found taxi cheaper than the price you pay for a bus, you have queue but the queues go fast.
I think these apartments should be rated higher as the best apartment I been in and we do a lot of travelling.

" Las Colinas apartments exceeded my... "
Submitted By: Miss E Higginbottom
Las Colinas apartments exceeded my expectations, the rooms were very spacious, to a good clean standard and fairly modern.
The kitchen was spacious and apt, though I felt it could have benefited with a grill as there was only two electric rings to cook on.
The bathroom again is spacious and clean and the shower was fine. The balcony was quite large and we had a good view over the pool and the sea.
Our apartment was cleaned 3 times whilst we were there, in which the floors were mopped and we were provided with clean towels and beds were made, though clean sheets were not put on.
The small shop was well stocked and provided most day to day essential items. The rumours of the pool are true, it is a little cold!, though after the initial shock, it was lovely to cool down from the heat and it did not put me off from going in again.
The pool was clean as was the surrounding patio's, though the sun loungers and parasols can be like gold dust after about dinner so you need to get there early if you plan a day by the pool.
The staff in the bar and the shop were very polite and helpful though the Reception lady was a bit offish and seemed to give the impression that you were bothering her when we needed any assistance.
The walk into the centre is about 20 mins, which I didn't mind, though a taxi was only 3 Euros.
I would definitely recommend Las Colinas to anyone and intend to return myself in the not too far future.

We had a great time at these apartments. Myself, my wife and two daughters had a self catering apartment. One bedroom with sofa beds in the spacious living area. three balconies with pool and mountain views.
Very quite and an ideal base for the resort of Costa Teguise. Courtesy bus to the beach or town centre four times a day but taxis only three euros. Walking distance to the island's only aqua park, two swimming pools one of which is fairly quite with plenty of sun beds.
Helpful multilingual staff and a courtesy room with shower for use between check out and airport transfer. I would definitely recommend Las Colinas.

Submitted By: Mr P Garside
A very clean and modern complex. We booked through lowcostbeds.com and got what we thought a good deal. The studio was huge and could have easily accommodated four people. It was more than adequate for the two of us.
We had a regular maid service with the towels and bedding changed regular.
We did have a car so the distance from the beaches and main resort did not present a problem for us.
Our only slight criticism was the size of the balcony, too small however the one bed apartments had balcony's twice the size.
We would definitely return again.

Submitted By: Mrs K Fox
Las Colinas apartments were great for us. The apartment was spacious and spotlessly clean with a safe balcony for our little girl. The complex is small and surrounds a good sized pool, just like all the photos show you. There is a shop and bar but no night life up at the apartments so you can enjoy a peaceful nights sleep.
Staff were friendly and helpful too. It is a short walk in to Costa Teguise for a nice meal out and the beach playa Bastian is a bit further. If you have little ones, I recommend taking your buggy, especially if you want to bring shopping back. There are lots of taxis around if you don't want to walk and they are cheap. Lots of excursions available if you want them too.
For a lovely meal out, go to Navarros on the main strip. The family run business really look after you and all the food is delicious. Try the chili prawns and crème brulee. A really good place to go. I would recommend it.

The Las Colinas complex is in fact one section of two adjoining complexes the other section being the Lanzarote Paradise each comprising of approximately 48 apartments.
Each have seperate pools, a supermarket and communial bar area with a single reception area servicing each complex.
Our apartment at Las Colinas was very clean and quite spacious.
It had ample space for our 2 children aged 7 & 14 with a decent south facing balcony and generous living area/bedroom with main bedroom containing 2 single beds.
Kitchen had microwave, fridge, hob, kettle, 2 slice toaster and included all cutlery and dishes required for self catering - even had cork screw and bottle opener ;)
Living area had fold down sofa, 2 chairs, tables, TV plus a single foldaway bed.
Maid service was twice a week which we thought could have been better improved with at least 1 extra visit a week.
Pool wasnt very clean on arrival (Sunday) - dirty 'tide mark' visible at water level and general leaves/twigs etc visible on top. Pool was cleaned next day and seemed to remain clean for rest of our stay. Pool was very cold and not heated.
A few points to note before booking:
AIR CONDITIONING:
Although complex is listed as having air conditioned rooms you must PAY 25 Euro per week plus 5 Euro deposit for the remote control to switch it on!!
TELEVISION:
To view TV you need to insert 1 Euro for EVERY hour of viewing!!
SAFE:
Safe was 28 Euro per week plud a 10 Euro deposit - Total 38 Euro per week!!
LATE CHECKOUT:
45 Euro if you require to keep your room after 11am on day of departure!!
INTERNET ACCESS:
1 Euro for only 12 minutes!!
Overall our experience in Las Colinas was pleasant but made less enjoyable because of the extra hidden expenses levied by the complex.
Advice: Check out the Teguise Sunday Market. Grand Tour & Atlantic Adventure excursions a must
Activities: Any Chinese All You Can Eat Buffets - Great Value - Tianamen Chino or Jumbo
Good for: Beach
