Spain - Canary Islands - Tenerife Discussion Forum

Discussions regarding holidays in Tenerife.
I know people will think I'm lazy but I'm short on time - work, disabled Mum, all that...I have checked reviews etc, but just need to make sure before I book - I don't always believe what I'm told by a booking operator!

Basically, I know where these are, ideal area for us, and am coming up with with decent price for 2 weeks Feb. half board. We need somewhere flattish as Mum in w/chair. I keep asking for 2 rooms as Mum and I are going, plus my on/off partner, so clearly us all sharing 1 room isn't good, but all searches for anywhere coming up as 1 shared room, except PDLP, and as I say, wiould be perfect area for us. It's described as a 1 bed apt with sofa bed in lounge, and that would do - Mum and I in bedroom, fella in lounge bit on sofa bed.

Hope this is clear and can anyone confirm that's the case for the layout?

Thanks

Hi Ali .. there are various types of accommodation at this complex, such as studios, apartments and duplexes. But most of it comprises of one bedroom apartments, with separate lounge/kitchen area and sofabed.

hi ali,

we have stayed at these apartments twice and have always had 1 bedroom apartments. very spacious. when we went in august 2008 my parents came with us, and my dad can't walk distances and they gave them a ground floor apartment for disabled persons. it was great and dad was able to put the electric scooter he'd hired in the apartment every night.

hope this helps.

Thinking of booking this hotel/appt for later on in the year...Even though I've been to PDLA 3 times before I'm not really familiar with this area......previously stayed at Oro Blanca,Las Palmeras and Columbus....Can you tell me are there plenty of bars around this area or would we be best of going down to the patch/veronicas area.......looking for somewhere with evening entertainment....ie singer,group,some sort of show.......
Does this hotel have a website as I can't seem to find one.
Any help/advice gratefully appreciated

The Parque de la Paz apartments are literally on the doorstep of one of the best strips of bars in the resort! You have the Corner Bar, Soul Suite and loads of others. :wink: Been a while since I've been there but I'm sure one of the PDLA regulars will be able to tell you more.

Hi all,

We have heard that Cara and Bobby have left the parque de la paz hotel. Does anyone know if that is true?

If it is, does anyone know where they are now working? We are off to tenerife in March, so would be good to catch up with them.

Thanks

We are going here in August. I'm hoping there will be enough to keep my 12 and 14 year old boys entertained.
Have booked S/C as we do prefer to eat out. Thomas Cook could only offer 1 bed apt but I know they have some two beds and they do HB.
I wondered whether anyone had been recently and had any idea how much upgrades cost?

hi martha,

I don't think you can upgrade to the two bedroom duplex apartments, while you are there.
You can upgrade from sc to hb whilst there. we're going there next week so will confirm price then. we always go sc at parque de la paz, as there are loads of restaurants to choose from around the vicinity of the complex.
they have computers and games in the reception, and a pool table for the children but apart from that, not much else. but on saying that, there is a new entertainer at the hotel, and on our return will let you know.

we've been going here for 4 years now, and have had great holidays. we're off on the 19th march for a week, and then on the 6th august for 2 weeks!

if you want to know anymore please pm me.

regards

we've just returned from another great holiday at these apartments, i have completed a review but just wanted to inform everyone that as from 1st may 2010, all inclusive is now an option!

payable locally, it's 28 euros per adult and 21.50 euros child 2-12.

the details were very sketchy from the hotel staff, but as one man on reception put it " if you can eat it or drink it, it's included!"

Thanks for that Tracey, I'll look at your review. That would be 784E per week for four of us for AI. Might be worth a try. For anyone who has not yet booked it's probably cheaper to book an AI package.

I have stayed in parque de la paz on at least 5 occasions on self catering basis, looked at menu and have to say would only do self catering, thats just my opinion

hi joan

you can't upgrade to half board when you arrive, only all inclusive.
the price is 25 euros per night for adult and minimum 3 days.

we've just returned from there, but went self catering.

hope this helps
