Location
The apartment was rather small and with 4 of us, we did tend to get in each others way.
The staff were solemn at best, and miserable at times and the bar service particularly poor.
The pool looks excellent but it is not freshwater and the mineral content was far higher than the sea!
At the begining of the 2nd week the place did start to improve with maintenance being stepped up but it was too little.
It was probably a very good resort at one time but now appears in decline, maybe it will recover

At first we were really worried about the place and the fact that first choice couldnt guarantee a ground floor apt but when we got there we had been allocated a groundfloor room with minimal adaptions in the bathroom and had an excellent view right by the poolside!
There were ramps everywhere including into the pool! Although some were a little steep it made our holiday easier. (an ablebodied pusher is probably required!)
Our apartment was very clean and towels, sheets etc were changed every 2 days. Around the hotel was clean and tidy too although the crazy golf could do with a fresh coat of paint!
We didnt really try the hotel food as we ate out all the time.
The location was brill, couldnt wish to be any closer to town and shops!
The staff were ok. not overly happy and pleased to see you!
The entertainment in the pool in the afternoon seemed to be good and eveyone who participated seemed to enjoy it but it was the same day in day out. night time was good, excellent "Bob Marley" impersonator.
We went on 2 excursions, the first was the jeep safari.
nothing was too much for the driver who lugged the wheelchair off and on. My son sat in the front seat and was even allowed to steer the jeep for a bit! excellent.
The end was the catamaran which we were told was a totally disabled friendly not quite...took 4 men to lift him in his chair onto the boat ....not much space to move around, spent most of the day sat at the back.
Toiletting was a huge problem....down a very tiny rope ladder to a very confined space!! When you dont walk this is near on impossible so a coca cola bottle had to do!! Apart from that he thoroughly enjoyed himself and even got carried onto the jetski and was taken for a ride. great fun!
Would we go again? yes is the answer to that one. We have booked 2 weeks in 2005 but instead of the last minute bargain @

Only problem was that ants kept getting in through the patio door. Reported it and it was dealt with; however the little buggers returned! TBH, it didn't bother us too much - would have been a different story with cockroaches!
Facilites at the Lobos Bahia were very good - lovely pools etc. Food at the snack bar was a bit bland, but what would you expect?
Staff mostly very nice.
Location within Corralejo was reasonable. Whilst there are bars and restaurants (and the very cheap Netto supermarket) on your doorstep, the actual centre of the action is at the other end of the strip approx 15 mins walk away. Not really a problem though.

Only a 5 min walk to start of main strip where you will find ample bars, shops and restaurants.
Corralejo is brilliant for a relaxing holiday but we found plenty to do. The day trip to lanzarote is well worth the money and the unsettling seasickness!! If u do go on the catamaran I would advise taking seasickness tablets before boarding, or sit on the lower deck as it is not as bad!
Make sure you visit the beach at RIU OLIVIA, only about

The apartment are clean but absic. Thaya re cleaned 5-6 times a week. The cleaning ladies were asleep. If you are asleep when they call, they come in the afternoon instead! We staying in blockD which overlooks the pool! Before we went I was told not to Stay in block A as this was at the back of the restaurant and its here where the smell arises.
We had self catering. We ate in the pool bar twice. The food was ok but nothing to write home about!!The food was simple- burgers,chips, pizza etc. We also ate in the Restaurant once. This was buffet, all you can eat, It was a fantastic meal.And very good value. The location of the hotel is excellent, it is at the beginning of the strip. just a short walk from all the shops and bars. The Hotel staff were all very nice, no complaints. We only went down to the evening entertainment once. It was a karoke night and we had fun, but most nights the entertainment area seemed pretty empty, therefore a turnoff! The entertainment seemed mainly for children! I would definatley visit this hotel again. I have reccommend the accomodation to my parents who are travelling there this summer with my two younger brothers.

The pool area was vast and very clean. The pool was cleaned everyday by staff and tested thoughout the day. All shops bars etc are a short walk away and a few lovely beaches all within walking distance. There is also a train that runs through the resort if you do want to be lazy or explore the beach further away, which is well worth it as its in a cove and the sea is boiling...LOVELY!!!!
The entertainment at the complex was very good too!! Kept the kids entertained and was good for adults too. They seemed to cater for everyone. This is an excellent choice for couples and families who like everything close at hand and an excellent standard of accomm.

Accommodation
The Lobos Bahia Aparthotel is about 5 minutes walk from the town centre and has a market opposite, open Mondays and Fridays. Although there seemed to be a lot of building work going on in Corralejo, we were at a safe enough distance from any disruption and felt really sorry for the people staying at San Valentin as this was virtually opposite a building site!
We had requested a pool view from TV Travel Shop and probably had one of the best rooms as it was right in the centre in Block L overlooking the main pool. There were three pools, all of which were kept incredibly clean by the hotel staff. I was also impressed that there was a ramp going into the main pool for the disabled to use, which is something you don
