We stayed for a couple of days at Bitacora appartments. The appartment are quite clean (keep it clean: ants!) and have cooking equipment. A supermarket is next door and there is parking space.
Walking to the beach is about 15 minutes, which is great for partying.

the self catering was fine because there is loads of resteraunts nearby and there is a bar at the hotel and there is a shop nearby aswell. It is on a hill so it is a big walk but that is ok! it is right beside the beach and it is always warm! But the apartments had tons of... more

I stayed here in sept 2010. Good location, yes there was a hill but you'd have to be really unfit not to cope with it. The apartment was basic and clean. We were upgraded on arrival from a studio to a 1 bed apartment. The acccomodation was dated and needed bringing up to... more

what a birthday!!!!
I went on this holiday with my fiancee for my birthday, from looking at the reviews we diecided to go self-catering so I cant comment on the food, however just a warning in our apartment we only got 2 hobs and no oven or grill. I was a bit confused on what to expect from seeing the reviews alot of what was said was true you will most probably find that thier is no entertainment in the complex, and the cardiac hill is a nightmare!!! Also like what another reviewer said we had problems with the shower. It couldnt stay consistant first the... more
Would go back!
We stayed at Bitacora 12-19 March 2007. We were advised at the airport that the original apartments that we were to stay were overbooked so we had been moved to Bitacora. The apartment was clean, (smelt of lemons) a bit scruffy around the edges, but great for what we wanted. (We were self catering - there was a 2 ring cooker, kettle, toaster, fridge - all clean and working). The maid went in every other day and made the beds and we were given clean towels. We stayed in the complex on the same side as reception and were in a... more
Perfect for young couples on a small budget!
Hey. we are a young couple. both aged 19. we visited the Bitacora Apts from June 8th- June 15th 2006. we were on a tight budget and only paid £270pp (incuding flights, transers and being half board) -which we thought was exceptional value. we booked for one week. we arrived quite late on the Thursday night after bein allocated the Bitacora on arrival. we were one of the last drop offs at about 1130pm. by this time we were both feelin tired and being our 1st holiday together gettin fed up already.Our rep took us to the main reception... more
Wot "No Hot Water" Nice To Come Home For An Hot Bath
In all honesty, for the price we paid (£298.00) for 2 persons half board, we could'nt really complain. When we arrived at the Bitacora i was pleasantly suprised with the appartment. After reading reviews i was expecting bug ridden dirty rooms, but this was not the case. Our room was in the complex across the road from the main reception and was pretty quiet. Ok, don't go expecting 4 or 5 star standards but if you are looking for a cheap clean break away, you can't go wrong. We would recomend these apartments to anyone. The rooms are clean... more
not so good
yes stayed here for the new year celebrations 2007. Towels were awfull could not dry you, certain times you had no hot water to shower that was every night ,we had to boil a kettle the one night it did not come back on untill the morning! No heating and it did go off cold in the eveings, we had to ask for more blankets. Cleaners only came in certain days and didnot change the bedclothes on the sofa bed.Would not go back there again, location good though about 10 mins to the beach. more
Brilliant Value
Me and my friend, both 21, moved over to Lanzarote last september, we booked a one way flight and a two week stay in bitacora to give us time to view other properties and get a job. We paid £60 each per week, what can you really expect for that amount of money! For that amount of money we spent we were expecting a right dive, but was pleasanlty surprised. Although the apartments are abit out of the way, and up several hills, they were fabulous value for money. The walking kept us fit!! Once you travel down the hill... more
Bitacora Club Appartments
A friend and I (both 17) went on our first holiday to Lanzarote and booked a last minute holiday in this hotel (turns out most other people at the hotel had done the same). I'm just going to write a list of our problems:- 1) The first night we came there at 2am the receptionist just gave us our key and expected us to find our own room in the dark having just come off a 4 hour flight with a 2.5 hour delay. We didn't feel safe walking around in the dark not knowing where we were or where to go. 2) Our bathroom light didn't work - but... more
Would Never Go Back
Prior to booking this accomodation we read several reviews regarding the Bitacora Apts.We could not find any really negative reviews so we decided to book half board for 2 weeks. On arrival at the hotel we were given the key to our apartment which was in the complex across the road. To our horror we couldnt believe the standard of interior. Our balcony was overlooking a brick wall and the self catering facilities on offer were of a very poor standard. We asked to move rooms and the management reluctantly moved us to a room which was... more
Loved It!
This, was a really nice hotel!! I really enjoyed it! I am 17, and am writing from my own experience but also on behalf of my own family, ranging from my 12 yr old brother and my 40 year old dad. They all enjoyed it, just showing how this hotel was good for all ages. We stayed at the far end of the hotel around the smaller pool, it was tranquil, quiet and you got all the peace you need. I would not, describe it as the worst place for families whatsoever. The only realy criticism was the abscence of a good air conditioning. Yes, fans were... more
Excellent apartments
Stayed there March 06, sole traveller. Went on the reviews I read on here and I wasn't disappointed! Apartments were clean and excellent, the choice of pools were great, and the reps were frequently there on hand. Downside? The supermarket next door was seriously understocked, meaning a 5 minute walk to the next one (okay unless you are carrying loads of water). The female receptionist did not want to talk to you and would rather chat on her phone (the rest of the receptionists were very helpful). The bar staff at the pool, when there,... more
