We stayed at the Tamorindo all inclusive, it is a very clean complex, the food was nice but repetative.

The location is a little far from the shops and beach about 30 mins walk taxis cost around 2.30 euros which I found was reasonable. The beach and shops are very nice, so are the pubs and restaurants.

The staff were friendly at the Tamorindo,but I must say the entertainment was not very good if any at all, the poolside was very clean, and the pools are great. My 8 years old son could stand in all of the larger pool.

I think in a couple of years time there will be more things to do closer to the Tamorindo as they are building all around it , ( but this does not effect your holiday at all it was still peacefull ).

I might go back there in a few years time . It was quiet when we were there week beginning 5th October,so there was plenty of room around the poolside, even if it was busy I,m sure there would be plenty of room.

We stayed on the upper floor of the two storey appartment and our friends on the ground floor. The accommodation itself was very clean and tidy upon arrival with regular cleaning and towel changes throughout our one week stay.

There was plenty of variety with regards to the food at breakfast, lunch and dinner. There was always something that each of our children would eat, so there was never a problem with them not eating or drinking as all were in plentiful supply.

The location of the hotel is away from the main resort, but very close to the waterpark and bowling alley. Although we were away from the main resort, this did not pose a problem as it was nice to take a stroll in to the resort and down to the harbour. There is a lot of building work going on all over the island but this does not spoil the holiday as the building sites are rarely active and noise is very minimal.

Staff at the hotel were very pleasant and friendly. The entertainment was not too bad but as this if fairly new complex I am sure will get better. We enjoyed a magic show , solo guitarist, quiz & bingo nights. The staff also had daytime activities that included football, beach volleyball (purpose made court) and water polo. With regards to childrens entertainment we went to the Oasis Papagua which was 5 minutes walk away for the kids to take part in the more established kids entertainment schedule. Also there is a play area within this complex for the kids to enjoy.

We were not too bothered about going on excursions so stayed by the pools during the day, which all our kids enjoyed as they were able to swim & play safely whilst in our sight. The pool also has a resident lifeguard on duty if there are any problems, and there are plenty of sunbeds situated around each of the 3 pools.

Overall the complex is very well maintained and managed, staff are wiling to help and are very friendly, the standard of the food is good. This is an ideal place to come for a relaxing time laying by the pool.

The only thing that the appartments don't have is air-conditioning, although you can hire fans for your holiday duration. The appartments on the upper floor tend to be cooler in the evenings than those on the ground floor due to the higher ceilings.

Just got back from a fortnight to Oasis Tamirindo.

The staff were extremely friendly, and the two staff employed by the hotel to entertain the children made the holiday for us. The children went off to play tennis, table tennis, football, water polo which left us with lots of relaxation time by the three massive swimming pools.

The food was varied and you could always find something you liked.

The rooms were lovely - no complaints at all on this score.

The town centre was about a 15-20 minute walk away, but the roads were well lit and it was a pleasant walk after dinner. There is a water park on the way to town which proved an enjoyable day out. We went on one excursion to Oasis Park which I would highly recommend.

The only drawback I would say was the evening entertainment, we did have entertainment 6 days a week, but it started a little late - usually about 9.30pm and our youngest child was usually too tired to enjoy it.

There's not too much to do around he immediate vicinity of the hotel, lots of empty new buildings - I'm sure in a few months these will all be snapped up and the place will be very lively.

All in all, we can say we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and have come back very tanned and very relaxed.

THE Tamarindo is a beautiful hotel.

The food is lovely and the staff really friendly. Location is a bit poor, but we went as a family and my children thoroughly enjoyed themselves playing in the pool.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

The hotel Tamarindos was lovely. We both couldn't believe what we had been given for the money we paid. For half board the price was really good as we met another couple who had paid a similar price for two of them on a self catering basis.

The hotel was spotless it was cleaned thoroughly by the pool, the restaurant, the rooms were always cleaned to a high standard tidying up our things ensuring we had clean bedding and towels.

We both thought the food was superb couldn't fault anything, we did feel that towards the end of our stay the food options did seem to go a bit lax. There was a wide variety of different foods for everyone to have for all meals.

The staff were very helpful and service to a high standard, we had laughs with few of the staff as they were very friendly to approach!! Any problems or concerns with any thing they were happy to help.

The holiday rep was lovely, we spoke to her a few times and my partner spoke to her regarding our holiday as we enjoyed it all but all complaints she was getting were negative mainly from all inclusives!!!!

The entertainment we both agreed with everyone on this as it was poor and if paying for all inclusive I would be really disappointed with the hotels evening entertainment as basically there wasn't any!! People were playing their own CDS a few nights we were there!!

I would definitely go back and would recommend this hotel to other people I know.

We returned a week ago from the Oasis Tamarindo in Correlijo on Furteventura. We had been booked to stay at the Oasis Village but on arrival the rep told us they were not sending anyone there as it was full of German tourists and you would not have anyone to speak to.

What luck, the Tamarindo was superb and far better than the village complex. We had gone just for a rest and that

We were supposed to stay at Oasis Dunas but Cosmos kindly moved us 6 days before we travelled. Only just open, mainly all inclusive so we were a bit left out. Only one beer tap at bar took ages to get served, all inclusive people weren't happy with standard of food or drink. Its a good 20 minute walk to the nearest restaurants through building sites 16 cranes around area. Taxi to town 2.50 euro. The swimming pools were lovely, no kids playground yet!! Football and tennis courts, the pool table was 2 euro but go around corner to winning post nearest bar and its only 1 euro and they have airhockey etc. + they have Sky so u can watch football. The complex died at 11 O'Clock as thats when the all Inclusive guests had to pay for the drinks so don't expect a late night.

We had a 2 bedroom ground floor apartment we were the first to stay in it and there was builders dust all over the floor. The maid service wasn't that good they never swept or mopped the floor apart from the day before we left and that was only because I grabbed the brush and started sweeping up. The towels were getting smelly as 5 of us were using them we waited 5 days for clean ones. Kitchen facilites for Self catering very limited, 2 electric rings, no kettle, toaster or microwave, just a frying pan, casserole dish!!!? and a milk pan(however we had to ask for this and for a bath plug. Even though the room was for 5 we only got 4 cups, 4 chairs etc. The shower was brilliant however be warned as the room steams up the shower rail falls down on your head!!!

We only had 2 cockroaches during our 2 weeks so not too bad. There is nothing around the complex the supermarket opened while we were there but very expensive. For an all inclusive complex I never once saw a kid with an ice - cream, the beer is served in little plastic cups.

When the area around is developed it will be better.

This was our first All Inclusive holiday and I must say it was very disappointing.

There was no kids club, very poor evening entertainment and the food was dreadful.

The dining room was chaos, there was very little choice and the food was often cold. I made several complaints ie: pork and chicken not cooked properly, still running with blood.

Snacks and Ice cream were available between 3.30pm & 4.30pm ONLY.

There was basically nothing for the children to do at the hotel apart from 1 pool table (with 3 balls missing)and the air hockey table. Worked out quite expensive at 2euros a go.

The only bar in the hotel is the pool bar. Drinks were served in very small plastic glasses and as there was only one tap for serving beer it was not unusual to be queing for up to 20 minutes.

The location of the hotel is 2.5 miles from the resort centre. We know this because we hired a car rather than walk or pay 2.50euros a time for a taxi.

We would not recommend this hotel for families, the pool areas and apartments were great but maid service left a lot to be desired.

We decided to try Corralejo and the Tamarindos as there was little chioce around last minute.

When we arrived we were struck by the stench in the appartment. Although they were brand new they obviously had some sort of problem with the sewer's.

The only smell that was worse was the smell of the food, we ate there twice buy couldnt bear it after this. It was a long walk, about an hour, to the beach in scorching heat with no shade. If you wanted to ho to the town this took about 40 mins. Not a fun walk as surrounded by construction sites and the noise and dust this entails.

If you wanted to stay at the hotel, they played the same cds on loop, which were often scratched and therefore skipped, as they were piped around the pool you really couldnt relax there, especially as the alcohol seemed watered down! If you brought a family here it would be hell, people we spoke to were desperate to leave and the reps and the hotel staff couldnt give dam.

The two nights entertainment in our week consisted of bingo, and (I cring to mention this) but a larger than life rep dancing on stage with a child to Saturday night by Whigfield.

Me and my girlfriend amused ourselves, luckily so it wasnt a complete waste, but we could have done that anywhere!

We had a brilliant time when we were at the Tamarindo. The accommodation was first class all nice and new. We had 7 apartments between us 2 one storey and 3 up and down they were no. 28 to 31b right by the pool they were close enough to the pool and we just kept the patio door open for the kids to go in and out. Did not have to do much cooking as we were AI kitchen did not look as if it had been used. We were originally booked for the Oasis Village but our accommodation got changed 10 days before we went. (thankgod for that but it is a long story)

We went in a group with 5 families 22 in total kids ages ranged from 6 to 16 so we did not need much entertainment there were a few shows on while we were there a magic show, parrot show, a guy singing and playing a guitar (I thought he was quite good),saw him twice also two men and a women who done a juggling act and who also got the audience to participate that show was a laugh but only lasted for 45 minutes. There was also a mini disco and quiz with a couple of reps. One night we played bingo which was a laugh when the lad was calling it was in English then Spanish then German so you did get a bit confused but I WON so I was happy and I was 70 euro's better off.

There were queues at the bar (the lovely manager when he was around got rid of the queues quickly as he could remember your drinks and he would have them ready for you) but you could get 4 drinks everytime you went so we never sat without a drink you just use to go when the queue went down. On a couple of nights during August I did need my jacket. There was always a breeze anyway.

Around the pool during the day there are two reps who ask the kids to play "water volley ball" "killer darts" "football" or "volley ball on the court". They also done bits and pieces at night around the bar area.

There was a sign advertising the play area but the kids looked and looked for it one night and could not find it so I guess it is not yet built.

All of our group were happy with the food the kids always found something they liked. There was chips everyday as well as other potato products now and again. There was chicken nuggets and little fish shaped things sometimes. They did cook chicken, fish, steak or pork sometimes on the grill so that was ok. There was plenty of deserts, fruits and loads of ice-cream all different varieties. My son used to cook cheese with ham on toast in the morning if there was nothing he fancied. We were there for 2 weeks so I think you do get sick of eating. We did eat out on a few occasions but that was our choice and we had a birthdays celebration. (highly recommend "Slowboat 2" chinese it was delicious) There was a sports bar just around the corner which had the football, cricket and other sporty things where the lads went when the sun got too hot!!!!!! That had a room next door with pool table, air hockey and other things for the kids.

The building work does not effect you at all you do see one crane over the roof of the reception but it was way over the road. There is loads of building work around all of Correlejo so the crane industry do a roaring trade. I think in a few years when all the building work is done I may think about going back.

We went to the water park during our stay and everyone enjoyed it. There was no hassle with queue's we hired rings so you did not have to wait for someone giving you one. There were 7 big slides 3 you needed rings and a couple of smaller slides also there was a play area for the little ones. I dont like the slides so I just chilled out. You also have to pay for your sunbeds.

We also went on a couple of trips we went to Lanzarote on the Blue Dolphin (kids loved that) and to Animal Quackers it was a animal park both trips were enjoyed by everyone. The camel ride was the best.

We all did have a really good time we were bothered about our holiday as the Oasis Village where we were supposed to be staying had really bad reviews so we were happy being at the Tamarindo.
