" enjoyable good holiday "

I've just recently returned from a holiday at the auga mar apartments, the rooms were clean and the staff were all very polite. you get fresh towels most days and your room cleaned regularly as well. even though the pool was rather cold it was nice and refreshing considering how hot it can get during the day. its a good distance away from the main town and the beach, and its only a short walk away from where a bus picks you up to go on different day trips. a very good restaurant i would strongly recommend is the Angus steak house, which is to the right of the hotel just a short walk away. there were 8 of us on our holiday and none of us had a bad meal there and we found ourselves revisiting the place a lot because it was nice food and not bad prices, the staff are also very friendly there. the food at the hotel was also very nice, and there was never a problem getting sun beds. theres free wifi in the lounge and also other computers in the internet rooms. also on your last day, the staff can provide you with towels to sit around the pool with and theres also a shower room you can use. although there are a lot of people walking around trying to sell you things you shouldn't let that put you off going here. i would recommend this hotel to anyone because it was a very good holiday and i would definitely want to revisit there again.

Advice: nice, clean, lots of places to eat, lots of shops, big market on sundays.

Activities: angus steak house. loroparque.

Good for: Beach

" Good holiday "

We returned from these apartments on 25 April 09 and we had a brilliant time. It was my husband's birthday during our stay and the hotel very kindly supplied him with a bottle of champagne. It was a lovely surprise. The only downfall about the hotel is they allow football on the balconies and round the pool which is not very pleasant for guests. Other than that the rooms are nice and spacious and the maid service is excellent. The reception are very helpful. The hotel is very central to all areas, a 10 minute walk to the beach if you can find the short cut. Plenty of restaurants and bars locally. I would certainly recommend this hotel.

"  Aguamar Apartments in November "

We have just returned from a great week at Aguamar Apartments. The apartment ws spacious, well fitted out and very clean (the cleaners were in every day). Ours was on the first of five floors so we didn't have the hassle of the lift. The area is quiet and the walk to the beach and seafront is 10-15mins with no serious hills - there are some pretty steep ones in other parts of Los Cristianos. The other guests were mainly Swedes from wghat I could tell.
We had bed and breakfast which was quite good, a buffet with something for everyone from full english to deli items. there were even chips! We didn't have any other meals there so can't comment.
There were some minor negatives unimportant to us but others may find them useful. If you look at photos the building is in three sections, a centre and two wings. we were in the centre and our patio got no sun at all. same goes for the pool,a good portion is in shade all day restricting the already small for the size of hotel sunbathing area. Nothing there for kids except the pool and a small playground.

" visited aguarmar apartments for 10... "

visited aguarmar apartments for 10 days, self catering, with our 3 children aged 14,11 &6. had 2 bed apart. which was very nice & spacious. wish it had air-con though, very hot. a bit noisy at night as bedrooms face street. pool area nice, only prob was no sunbeds available until 10am, hence everyone is waiting for them to get the spot they want. staff friendly, good lifeguard. we up-graded twice to 1/2 board. good price 49 euros for us all, not bad selection of food.
overall good holiday, good distance from town. would visit again.

" We have just returned from 10 days... "

We have just returned from 10 days spent at the Aguamar Apartments. After an initial problem with the electricity tripping off in our room, the very helpful reception staff accomodated us in another apartment. Their service was quick and efficient. The room was clean and as described. We had maid service 5 days a week with towels changed every day and linen once a week.

The main drawback was the frenzy every morining at 10 am when the sunbeds were unlocked. The apartments were mainly occupied by British tourists who seemed to think that if they didn't get their space and sunbed immediately they had missed out. Unfortunately this meant all the sunbeds were put out with only half being occupied. If only people used them when required there would not have been a problem.

The apartments were located a 10 minute walk from the harbour, where there were numerous places to eat. A problem was the continuous stream of sellers, which spoilt a relaxing meal. They would come to your table several times during a meal and they were never discouraged by restaurant owners.

PLEASE NOTE THERE IS A SCAM ON PURCHASING ELECTRICAL ITEMS. PERSONALLY KEEP AWAY. YOU AGREE TO BUY A CAMCORDER, PAY, AND THEM GET SHOWN HOW TO USE THE EQUIPMENT. THIS IS THEN NOT AS FIRST SHOWN,IN OUR CASE THE CAMCORDER ONLY PLAYED BLACK & WHITE ON THE T V SCREEN. THEY WILL THEN TRY TO SELL A DIFFERENT BRAND FOR MORE MONEY. DURING A VISIT TO A DIFFERENT SHOP THAT SOLD ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, ANOTHER COUPLE WERE HAVING THE SAME HARD SELL AND INEVITABLE ARGUEMENT.

" we have just returned from the best... "

we have just returned from the best holiday ever!, the aguamar was everything we could of hoped for and more!, the staff were very friendly and the apartments were clean and tidy, the kitchen area is very basic with only 2 hobs and a microwave but we found it cheaper to eat out most of the time anyway so no real issue!, the area is not the most active of areas so if your looking for clubs and bars your prob best looking elsewhere, but if your after a chilled holiday with no stress and plenty of sunshine then this is the place for you! right next to netto's supermarket is a place called leo's bar, try it out as this was by far the cheapest, best beer/food , and most friendly service you will find on the island!!. we look forward to returning in the very near future!

" Really, really cool holiday. Love Los... "

Really, really cool holiday. Love Los Cristianos as it is not as manic as Las Americas. Hotel OK, not fab but definitely good value for money. Major reason for writing is nightlife. Amazing bar called YELA'S in Funchal, Los Cristianos. Really, really nice bar staff - hello to Sarah, Scarlett and Ruth, Thank you for looking after me!!! Thank you for all day Happy Hour, still got a headache, but recovering slowly. Great to be able to see all the sport, not expecting the F1 or Hatton fight - made my holiday.
See you all really soon!!!

" Read the reviews before we went, a... "

Read the reviews before we went, a real mixed bag. So when reading our review, please bear in mind it is from three 26-34 year olds with no children.
Location fine, not much around in terms of restaraunts/ bars, but the odd few there are are very reasonable price wise and tasty. If you walk into the harbour which does take about 10 mins, there is plenty more choice. A good 30-40 min walk to Las Americas at a leisurely pace. With the walk along the seafront littered with bars and restaraunts.
However hotel 5 mins from taxi rank/ bus stops. Should be anywhere from 4 to 6 euros for a taxi to Las Americas. 1 euro on a bus.
Hotel pool really busy, with not enough loungers, so didn't spend much time there, which is a shame, as it's just not big enough for the number of rooms. Jacuzzi on roof top, for about 4 people so don't expect a spa. Close to Nettos supermarket, which we discovered wasn't that cheap and actually cost just as much if not less to eat meals out, particularly breakfast, which meant we didn't really need the self catering facilities.
The appartment was roomy and clean, but didn't get cleaned as much as stated when we booked our hotel. Prob twice in a week, sheets not changed though. 3 cockroaches in total. No air con so it's very difficult to sleep, so invest in fan from the start.
The thing that surprises me, that no-one else seems to have mentioned is the noise, as it caters for all walks of life, at every minute of the day there is noise, children early in the morning running past/ in the pool or in the play area. Younger people coming back late at night, with the road runing up the side of the hotel also quite busy, so constant traffice noise.
So if your looking for rest and relaxation on holiday, this is not the hotel for you, but as a base and not spending much time there, it's more than adequate.
All rooms are supposed to have a pool view, as all balconies face inwards and it does look a bit ghettoish, however we had a great big tree right infront of us, so coulodn't see a thing.

" My partner an di have just returned... "

My partner an di have just returned from the Aguamar after spending 14 gruelling nights in this horrific complex. A word to the wise, if you intend to go self catering dont come to the Aguamar as they have no cooking facilities that work!!! we had just two sinble solid hobs (which did'nt even boil water after 1/2 an hour) and a microwave that was only suitable for keeping bread from going stale. The rooms are hot and claustaphobic as there is no fan or air con we relied on leaving the door and blacony door open in the hope that the room would cool. The whole complex is full of beer fuelled yobs who argue from balcony to balcont about football teams almost coming to blows at one point outside our front door at 3am. The only thing going for the Aguamar is that it is near Los Cristianos and the lifts work! We are used to better quality for our money and do not intent to return to the Aguamar in this lifetime, by the way we were room 405...............You have been warned....................

" Me and my wife have just returned... "

Me and my wife have just returned from tenerife yesterday, were we stayed at the aguamar apartments. The location and the hotel was fantastic. The hotel was very clean and our room was cleaned daily. It took us under 10 minutes to walk to the harbour and beach area. There are a number of bars local with freindly staff and nice cold beer. The staff in the aguamar were very helpful and freindly, its a great hotel for couples and familys.

" The Hotel is 10 minutes down the road... "

The Hotel is 10 minutes down the road in a taxi from the airport and a wonderful complex. The receptionists are brilliant and very kind with great English. The room was ready straight away and all rooms have a view of the pool. The room was lovely and bright. The only worrying part was that the bedroom had a long low window that needed to be open for air or you can't breathe, but the window was next to the walk ways for others to get to their rooms. It was easy for someone to jump in. In that case we only had it open whilst in that room!!!
The cleaners come everyday except Sundays but the hotel and pool area is cleaned everyday. The whole palce is extremly clean and tidy. There is no need to worry about sunbeds as you can get one at any point of the day. There was no entertainment but not a big problem as there was an irish bar near the beach that held entertainment. (the only one that did - therefore very busy, get there early)

Los Christianos is the perfect place to visit if going as a couple. Not great for children but there are parks to go to near by. The town was lovely and the beach was less than 10minutes to get to. The locals are so welcoming and friendly and get to know your name. Eat at Linares as a treat, a lovely, friendly restaurnat but expensive! At this time of the year, the beach is not busy at all apart from on a Sunday. There are not many shops even in the next town across in the shopping complex but there is a Zara and Lacoste. Los Christianos is perfect if you want a quiet, relaxing and eating out holiday, if you want clubbing you're in the wrong area, you need to go to Las Americas.
Watch out for the scratch card people, they are English fakes and you do not win a prize so DO NOT fall for it like my partner and I. They take you to a luxury holiday site but try to sell you these holidays and you loose a whole day of your holiday.

A brillaint holiday, clean, friendly, great excursions but got a bit tired of the Africans annoying you where ever you go trying to get you to buy things.
You'll love it!

" Slightly worried after reading... "

Slightly worried after reading comments about these apartments on other sites but decided to book anyway as got a very good price.

Have stayed in Tenerife many times before with family when I was a child. This was my first holiday abroad with my boyfriend and it was great.

On arrival the apartments looked really nice from outside, no problems in checking in and out apartment was really nice, very clean and everything worked correctly, good sized bathroom and living area.

Nice view from the balcony out on to the pool. The maid service was good, our room was cleaned 5 days out of 7, and sheets changed the same.

We didn't eat in the restaurant as we were self-catering, though it did look nice. It was about a 10 minute walk from the apartments to the beach, though being a young couple this didn't bother us. Shops were just across the road. It was very quiet, this suited us though.

Only faults I could give it were that the hotel staff weren't very talkative but this didn't bother us, also for people wanting something more exciting I wouldn't go here.

The hotel bar was dead at night, but we were only in it once or twice, every other nights we went out for dinner and then drinks and it was nice to come back to a quiet hotel and get a good night’s sleep!

We did spend quite a lot of money in Tenerife but it was really good and I would definitely go back and wouldn't hesitate to recommend these apartments to anyone.

We returned on 20th November, having enjoyed 2 superb weeks holiday.

We found the apartment satisfactory, the staff very helpful & polite. The facilities were good particularly the rooftop jacuzzi which my wife made good use of.

Local bars & restaurants were good I would recommend the merry monk, smileys & heritage bars the chip restaurant across the road & Tasca el jaleo for good food.

On the downside there was no entertainment in the apartments & the TV programs available were limited (unless you like watching the news).

We would definitely consider going again.

" The hotel was clean and the staff... "

The hotel was clean and the staff polite and very friendly. The food was barely warm and unimaginative and when something ran out it wasn't always replaced. There was no air conditioning and this was a real bug bear even on the cloudy days. Had a couple of great meals in the steak house around the back of the Tenerife Sur Hotel and a lovely breakfast in Porkies alongside that. Recommend a trip to Torviscus and a steak in the Bahamas bar. Wouldn't recommend half board basis on this one - ate out most of the second week.

" We had a top floor apartment which... "

We had a top floor apartment which had a great view over the pool. No aircon so nights were hot and sticky. Had a couple of cockroaches visit which wasn’t pleasant but no mozzies at all. The maid service was ok with the bedding changed a couple of times over our 10 day stay, but the rubbish built up in our apartment when no cleaning was done for three days!

The pool area was ok, but nothing prepares you for the war of the sunloungers, they are all chained up until 10.00am and when they are unlocked there is a mad bundle with some families taking ten at a time! Be warned you have to be there to get one, turn up at 11.00 and you'll be on the floor.

There is no entertainment so don’t expect any, the jacuzzi was empty and they have painted the side of the main pool to try and tart it up but its flaking and will stick to your feet or clothing!

Meals out were either poor or fantastic. Try the Chill Out bar near the seafront - best steak ever! You’ll get hounded to go in every bar or chinese, which really got on my nerves!

The beach is nice but 10/15 mins to walk each way, think I’ll stick to Ibiza or Portugal!
