Aguamarina Golf Hotel Reviews
" Fantastic apartments however keep all valubles locked away! "
Submitted By: MalibuJac87Rooms - Very pleased with the apartments. Kitchen had hob, microwave, fridge/freezer. Could have done with oven. Spacious bedrooms and balcony overlooking pool. Was bit windy during the week we were there & doors rattled a bit in the wind, which for a light sleeper was a bit of a problem.
Pool area - The pool area was quite big with lots of sunbeds. Was also a smaller shallow kiddy pool. Pool was also a salt water pool.
Hotel location - Few restaurants around hotel however not close to beach etc. Not recommened to young people as not close to any nightlife. There is a courtesy bus which takes you to los Christianos and Playa de las Americas during the day where there are bigger beaches and more shops and restaurants.
However, despite a fantastic week, on the saturday we had popped down to the pool for 20 mins & in that time the cleaners had been & money was stolen out of my purse. Dirty towels were not replaced and apartments were not cleaned properly. The reception staff were not able to help as it was weekend and managers were not in & we felt they didnt deal with complaints with any sort of urgency.
Deffinately advise to use the safe even if your still on hotel premesis.Apart from one cleaner ruining the end of the holiday we still had a fantastic time & would still recommend the appartments to others - Just remember to lock all valuables away!
Advice: Hire car needed as not close to beach/shops etc.

" fantastic holiday "
Submitted By: wendy rThe appartments provide a free bus everyday except Saturday into Los Chritianos and Los Americas which were both a delight to visit with their resturants, beaches and a prom which links both resorts.
In fact we had such a great holiday the only bit of constructive criticism I can offer is drop the word 'golf' from the resort name as I feel people will be detered from staying there which would be a great shame.
Advice: you won't be disappointed.
Activities: Parascending in los Americas and Sakura the chinese resturant

Submitted By: Mrs K SyaneIt's a great place for families- very quiet.
We would not recommend this part of Tenerife if you feel like spending your time on the beach- the hotel is located close to the marina, the beach is very small; it's more convenient to stay at the pool.
No night life, the place is dead after 9pm

Submitted By: Mrs L ChittockThis is the first time we have been all inclusive, would definately do it again, so nice not to have to worry about money. Plenty of food, cold drinks, hot drinks etc. with the added bonus of a Saga lounge with newspapers every day. The rest of the hotel staff were very helpful with the exception of one receptionist who we think was a little aloof but professional in her job.
The only problems we found were that the food was not always very hot and the entertainment in the evenings was very poor. Apart from those two points it was thoroughly enjoyable.
We were shown the new apartments which very modern and tastefully furnished. Would have no hesitation in returning to the hotel or apartments.

Submitted By: Miss R ThompsonWe travelled with my four year old son and I am four months pregnant so I must admit I was concerned about food before we went as some of the reviews were poor, however we found the food to be more than acceptable for the price we had paid and thought the wide selection meant there was always something for everyone. It could have been a bit hotter and yes some of the meat was a bit overcooked but on the whole this is just being picky, we paid around £350.00 for a week’s half board in a beautiful hotel with excellent facilities, the view is amazing and the whole experience was far superior than the whole los Cristianos / playa Americas thing.
Excellent time had by us all.

Only downers were the poor entertainment, very small bar area and bizarre card system.
But all in all great.

Submitted By: Other M A FallowsIts the worst hotel I've ever been to. Cooked meat that was raw. Entertainment was in French and was really bad. Building work going on.
The hotel is split 60% French, 25% Saga Holiday people and 15% English. If you like the sound of that then go.

Submitted By: Mr M WollinaNow the reason for the low score, we had to eat our lunch and dinner at the main hotel complex, that's not too much of a problem being only a 2 minute walk, but the food was dire! I have eaten at many resort hotels over the years (many 2 and 3 star) and must say this was one of, if not, the worst! The presentation was very good, and a lot of effort to laying everything out, however, it was tasteless, a poor selection of vegetables, and out of 14 meal times only had boiled potatoes once! The meat was of a poor quality and very surprisingly the fish was not that good considering the local markets were brimming with locally fresh caught fish. Plenty of salads though, shame they were not left alone and had to be mixed with oils and other pointless additives. The vegetables were mainly served cold and often had bits of fish mixed in. Spain being one of the largest orange producers in the World and we had to have orange juice out of a machine for breakfast, disgusting!
The All Inclusive was far from it! now I'm not complaining about the drinks (alcohol) these were local and very nice! but when you asked for real orange juice with your drink rather than than the powdered machine stuff they wanted you to pay extra. The same is true for the real coffee, out of the machine it simply tasted awful, but when I put my hand in my pocket for the extras it was really quite nice.
The availability of snacks from the pool side bar (at the hotel not the apartments) was really quite poor, the chips were frequently overcooked, the Hot Dogs often unavailable and the burgers awful. This all makes me sound like a fast food freak, far from it - that's all that is available, and with 3 Son's on all inclusive package having to pay for them to eat elsewhere defeated the object!
The service was really quite poor at the bar, I appreciated the 15 min rule, but seldom did you have the opportunity to break it, as it often took 20 to 25 mins to get served anyway! Be warned if you are getting a round in make sure you have the right number of cards on you (room cards), 1 drink for 1 card! I understood the rules but was shouted at by a member of staff for not bringing the right number of cards on an occasion and made to wait a long time after collecting the cards from my family for their drinks! Now then if you had money in your hand, they served you immediately! Strange that! The trick is to hold up a 20 Euro note over your room cards and then hand over the cards once served! I have stayed at many All inclusive (AI) resorts and this is the first one where staff treated us (AI people) with contempt!
The entertainment was dire! fair play to French Tour Operator FRAM their staff tried really hard to entertain all nationalities! But it was not for us, the SAGA holiday makers stayed away from the entertainment room too! Overall we were very disappointed! not a True All Inclusive Resort! If your looking for REAL Quiet then this is the place for you, PS the outdoor heated pool isn't! My opinion not a 4 star hotel at all (2 for food 3 for service, 4 for apartments).
" We arrived early 4am we went to... "
Submitted By: Mr M.W CLARKECleaners came in but did not clean well, still dirty. We asked for plastic to be taken off new shower and the safe had gone wrong. We had to keep phoning at reception. Night time came we were full with cockroaches. Thought it was because we had left window open. Next night cockroaches again all windows shut up. We asked to be moved because of problems. They said come back at 1pm in afternoon they would give us a different room, we went back at 12.30pm the man who we had spoken to before tried to lie to us and said he had not even talked to us. We were very angry now. He said come back in half an hour. We finally got a room which did not have cockroaches.
Restaurant was clean and good food. Swimming pool was very ice cold. Bar was clean and staff was nice. We had a nice holiday in the end, were we in wrong place.
" Myself, husband, and 2 children have... "
Submitted By: Mrs R CrossI booked through the Travel Republic call centre and having viewed the Aguamarina Golf hotel on their site, I was excited about the prospect of staying in this 4 star hotel (ALL INCLUSIVE) (despite advise of building work going on nearby).
However, upon check in at the hotel, my husband was very rudely told by the receptionist (who hardly spoke English) that we were not booked in at the hotel, but in the newly opened Aguamarina Golf Apartments down the road. After disagreeing with him, and at 11.45 pm, we walked down the road to the apartments.
On checking in there, we were told that as we were All Inclusive, we could eat our breakfast at the apartment building, but all other meals and snacks had to be taken back at the hotel! I could go on ... and I will....
We paid for a 4 star hotel... I got a 3 key apartment block.
Entertainment (at the hotel as there was none at the apartments) was awful... and in French... so if you didnt speak French... you had no chance!
The building work that we were warned about.... I was in it! ... The apartment block was not finished and there was painting and construction work still going on during our stay.
The level of health and safety around the building work was a joke!
No hand dryers in the public use toilets. No change of towels in the apartment rooms. No renew of toilet roll... we had to take these from the public use toilets!
No pool bar... only one bar located at the end of the restaurant (marble floor)... accident waiting to happen!
No snacks... had to go to hotel for this!
And even the snacks (hot dog or chips) where limited at the hotel... once they were gone... they were gone - as my son experienced.
Hotel staff were incredibly rude! Especially to the children. I certainly don't think that they have heard of service with a smile and think that some kind of course in dealing with the public and politeness wouldn't go amiss.
Food was very very repetitive. Certainly not value for money.
The only positive thing about our stay was that the weather was nice and our particular apartment and view was nice.
Having stayed in a couple of All Inclusive hotels in the past... I would never recommend this hotel to anyone.
Christmas was truly spoilt this year for us.
