Superb

Review Submitted: October 9, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
The apartment was as described, clean and Suzy's service, excellent.

Recommended 100% for couples.

Good location, but quite a climb walking up to the town.

Would suggest guests take advantage of the secure car parking as on-street parking could present problems.

As were late arriving, the Welcome Pack (including a bottle of wine) was a godsend.

There is a Package Holiday Apartment Ghetto nearby - but there was no late-night noise or other problems.

Within the building there is a quite a good Supermarket and three very good restaurants within easy walking distance - plus a number of fast-food joints.

Only niggle was that beach towels were not available for poolside use - as stated in the last minute info - but it is off-season.

We took a half-day trip to Los Americas - and quickly realised how lucky we were to be staying at Los Gigantos!

Good times

Review Submitted: March 11, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
We have just arrived back from a weeks holiday at Suzy's apartment have to say that the accommodation was everything we hoped for. The weather could have been a little kinder according to the locals but as this was our first winter sun break the sun was very welcoming.
We found the location of the apartment a huge avantage as nothing was too far away and we found the Route 66 bar was a great place to round off an evening.
Suzy was most helpful and hopefully if finances allow we will be back in 2010.

Relaxing Honeymoon

Phil & Liz London, UK
Review Submitted: November 4, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
My husband and I were looking for a relaxing place with sunny weather for our honeymoon and we found the perfect place with this property. The description is true to word: we found the property very clean, comfortable, modernly furnished, and with any amenity we could have wanted. We loved the option to stay by one of the two lovely, relaxing and very clean pools (where we always found free sun loungers) or go out and explore spots on the sea locally. The apartment complex itself is very modern, quiet, clean and safe.

As far as location on the island, we found it ideal. There were many restaurants and supermarkets locally, but it was also quiet and not as 'touristy' as many other locations. We also found it easy to hire a car for a day or so to explore other sites on the island. One tip: If you're going to book an excursion through a travel agency, do it sooner rather than later. Especially in the off-peak season, they don't run them every day. We ended up hiring a car in the end, which worked out fine, but probably would have saved money on a group excursion.

Highly recommend staying here. We would definitely consider returning and renting any property from Suzy again. She was very helpful and informative with everything from reliable transport services to local restaurants and maps to an optional welcome pack. She really helped to ensure our 8 nights there were very comfortable and enjoyable.

We are just back from Tenerife having enjoyed a wonderful two weeks in Santiago. Our apartment was absolutely perfect. Very impressive resort!!  Our property was very clean,tidy and suited our needs. It was great to have a washing machine,dryer,iron etc in the apartment. It is very well equipped and well maintaned. It has been a pleasure dealing with Suzy. We would not hesitate to rebook next years holiday and would certainly recommend to our friends and family

WINTER SUNSHINE

Sunshiners Tamworth Staffs
Review Submitted: June 27, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007
My wife and I have been visiting Tenerife in December/January for many years and in 2008 stayed in this apartment.
We were delighted by the high quality of the fixtures and fittings .On arrival it was spotlessly clean and we were pleased to find both a dishwasher and a washing machine included.The furnishings are very modern, tasteful and comfortable.
The apartment also has an excellent balcony with impressive views.
The complex was very peaceful and relaxing
We will definitely be returning!

A relaxing Winter break

FRH UK
Review Submitted: June 3, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
We found that this property accurately matched its description on the web site - very clean and comfortably furnished with many little extras to create a "home from home" experience,and very good value too. The Resort location affords easy access to the sea front from where it is a comfortably pleasant walk to Puerto Santiago or to Los Gigantes village and there are several local restaurants and a supermarket almost on the doorstep.

A car is not essential but is a convenient means of getting quickly around the island and of course for travelling to and from the airport. Parking was not an issue. However the local bus service seems a very viable transport option.

This apartment and its location provided us with the base for a very pleasant and thoroughly relaxing holiday and we will most certainly consider returning to it in the future.

Tenerife revisited

Heartsette Westbourne, Chichester
Review Submitted: June 2, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
Visited Tenerife 25 years ago & stayed in Playa Americas. This time we wanted something less 'commercial' and a stay for 10 days. This apartment is situated in a very new block half way up the West coast. It has no road noise being in a road that doubles back on itself. We enjoyed morning sun on the balcony and never had any problem finding a place to relax near the pool. The views are fantastic, restaurants and shops a few minutes away, a supermarket on the ground floor. Good place to start to explore the island. The complex has 2 shaped swimming pools, 2 children pools and 2 jacuzies. No problem with car parking, but recommend under ground parking during the high season. (small extra charge). Apartment clean, well equipped and great overall.
