Puerto Rico Hotels

We had booked an overnight stay here on route to an apartment we had booked in the next resort, how I wished I'd known how wonderful it would be and we would have stayed for the whole holiday. A truely wonderful hotel, with great facilities, the food was gorgeous, and so much to choice from, the staff were so helpful. The views are spectacular, I am longing to go back

We flew out on the 8th July returning on the 18th 9 days later. It was an amazing holiday, one to really remember. On arrival we were greeted with free champagne and with easy instructions was checked in with towels and a room safety box (costed 2 euros a day) in minutes. Walking onto the balcony of our room was completely breathtaking, the view of the beach from pretty much anywhere in the hotel was amazing. The hotel facilities were great, breakfast food delicious and varied, lots going on (evening entertainment, daytime games (jacuzzi bingo, rifle shooting, aqua aerobics etc) not that we were interested in much of that, we were there mostly for the long sunny days on the beach and everything else available to do on the island. Several scuba diving schools around, we used "Puerto Rico Diving" which were absolutely amazing, run by a lovely couple (Kevin & Nina) who were so easy to talk to and helped us out the whole time stayed close with us under the water (me a keen swimmer was fine but my girlfriend not so much and Kevin made sure he was with her the entire time enjoying the experience), we went jet skiing out around the bays of amadores and puerto rico, markets were on all around gran canaria (ask reception for all details) every day and easy to get to using local buses (again reception helped with bus times), palmitos park for dolphin encounters and beach days with so many restaurants on the beach we were glad we only booked half board! Great food and so cheap!!

I live in a busy town centre so wasn't troubled by the noise but the lift is very noisy and runs constantly due to the location/layout of the apartments. Room cleaning is sporadic, I think it is 3 times a week but they don't take into account when you arrived, so my room was cleaned within hours of my arrival (so no towels or linen needed changing) and then not cleaned for 3 days, then they came the afternoon before I was leaving to which I told them not to bother as I was checking out the next morning! There was a big ant problem which is often a problem in self catering and not helped by the lack of cleaning. I was however very happy with the large balcony which all the rooms had, it was private and there was room to sunbathe....which was good as the pool area was VERY noisy and slightly unwelcoming as most the guests seemed to be Spanish and weren't very friendly.

Stayed on this hotel from 17/4 - 30/4 2014, and we had a very pleasant stay. Our room (4 persons) had a balkon with the best view over the ocean ever. Some nice sunsets... Pools and surroundings were very nice and clean all the time. The poolbar served some nice drinks :-), and the food served at the restaurants were excellent. Good entertaining every evening - both for the kids and more grown up. Quite a steep walk to the beach and harbour though - but I guess with all that food its a good thing :-) Thanks to Puerto Azul and the staff behind.

Very well run hotel. Arrived late and it had just turned my 50th birthday we were able to get a late drink. The next morning of my birthday a cake arrived from the hotel. Lovely touch. Very clean, beautiful pool looking straight out to sea.

Very pleased that we chose to pay a bit more than usual to stay at this top quality hotel. Nice & quiet location, but close enough to all facilities. Pool & sunning area was superb. An excellent holiday location

We stayed for 5 nights in mid October here. My friend and I (female both age 28) fancied a wee get away from the kids and Scottish weather! Our room was clean and well enough equipped. We ate out so only used the kitchen for some small lunches or the odd midnight snack. Only downside was the beds, with a wee drink in us we slept fine but on the other nights I slept with my head at the foot of the bed (a bit on the springy side) the other end of the bed was fine though. I guess they dont flip the mattres so with all the weight at the one end all the time it's going to happen. We are quite small and had we been any bigger this might have been more of a problem. Lots of couples and groups from the uk who return to the hotel though. On both sides of our balcony the couples had returned several times. Pool was good and the wee shop was quite good too. There is a spar at the bottom of the hill which is well equipped too. 5/10 min walk away from the Europa center where there are plenty of bars/ restaurants. Down the hill (20min) is the beach quite a walk back up but it didn't bother us. There are taxis at the bottom of the hill which don't charge much to get back up the hill 2euro maybe. Overall we were happy it's not 4 star but if you want a wee budget holiday then I'd be happy to go back again :)
