We were 35 min walk from Playa Blanca so only went once had enough in hotel to entertain us. Few shops, bars and resturants very clean did'nt really see a good beach but then did'nt really look for one.

We loved Playa Blanca. The resort was lovely and clean with such friendly people.

There were plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants, some showing football, rugby etc. Not sure about clubs as we didnt stay out that late!

The Beach was beautiful and perfect for making sandcastles and strolling along in the sea.

Playa Blanca was a lovely place to stay, I would visit here again, but maybe stay in a place nearer the beach so we could get more use out of it!

We really liked this resort - it had a great beach front which you could walk all the way along on a wide pathway. There was great restaurants and gift shops to look around by the front. It wasnt rowdy like Puerto del Carmen town centre so I felt safe walking round the place alone with my kids at any time.

There is a ferry that goes from Playa Blanca to Fueteventura and also a lovely harbour with some little restaurants and here was the expensive designer shops.

Our apartments were only 10 mins walk away from the beach front so they were very well appointed

Playa Blanca is very laid back with plenty of shops and bars but mainly restaurants, 18 to 30 crowd forget it. There are two main beaches very safe and the one in centre of Playa Blanca is patrolled. There is no rowdiness and the harbour is very picturesque. The promenade stretches from one side of the harbour from the new Rubicon Marina for about 8 kilometres to the lighthouse with beautiful views on the way. All buildings only 2 storeys high a lovely resort for families and couples of all ages. We have been to Playa Blanca in preference to the other resorts on the island 3 times in the last two years and will go again.

We really liked the resort of Playa Blanca - it was a lovely walk along the promenade from our hotel with the sea on the right hand side and plenty of bars, restaurants all the way along. Once you reach the resort there are lots of nice shops to have a look in although some are a bit pricey and you do have to pick and choose! If you are looking for perfume Charlies is the best place for prices.
We also found the market on a Saturday but it was a long walk for us and not many stalls once you got there.
Very clean resort and friendly people.

The resort has plenty of shops and bars and restaurants to choose from. We only ate out for dinner 1 night and we went to Jumbo chinese - it was delicious. Best Chinese food I have ever had.

We walked into the centre of Playa Blanca most days just to see what else we could bargain out of the shops. The supermarkets are Netto and Spar in the town centre, these are pretty good value. We priced one against the other and decided each were cheap on different things.

Lot's of perfume shops, and I loved the bargaining to get the best deal possible. If you ahve a favourite perfume, i'd recommend finding out how much you can get it for over here from say Boots, and then write that down and take it with you. Some of the perfumes are coming in around the same price, but all you have to do is offer a lower a price, and 9 times out of 10 you can get them down to your price. I bought 2 perfumes from the centre and saved around £7 on each of them. I did buy another perfume but got it from the plane on the way home as I coulnd't find Chanel Coco Mademoiselle as cheap anywhere else, but saved £11 on a bottle by buying it on the plane.
The playa doreada beach is the closest to the hotel and is really quite big. We went down there about 10.30am and weren't charged for our beds until about 12pm, unfortunately we then left about 12.30, so if we'd known we may have left earlier and avoided paying. Loved the beach, there's plenty watersports on offer and swimming in the sea is great fun.
We went to the marina rubicon (playa blanca) market on Sunday (it is on a sunday and a wednesday), usual sort of thing you'd find at a market, quite a walk out to it, probably about 15-20 mins walking, but no problem for us. It was very busy and we were glad we'd made the effort to go as got a few nice little things for ourselves. There are more bars, restaurants and shops in this area and we had a good look round.
Didn't do any excursions, but didn't feel like we needed to. The weather was good all week, had a bit of rain on Wednesday morning, but when it cleared it was a beautiful day. Thursday wasa bit more overcast, but still warm enough to spend our last day by the pool, finishing off my book!

Playa Blanca is a lovely romantic place with really special hotels all on the sea front with a perfect promenande. The walk from one end to the other is about 1 to 2 hours but the taxi ride is only 3.5 Euros so go one way and get taxi back. The bus stops right outside the rubicon and costs 1.15 Euros takes you from one end to the other. Stop off at the port watch Ferrys coming in and have a drink at the Irish Bar - lovely cheesy tortillas

Resort was excellent, clearly quite new with not all shops or restaurants occupied but the ones that were are 1st class, (if a little expensive due to the exchange rates)
Lots of cafe's bars and restaurants to chose from.
Check out the dive centre..its the best.
Go along the promenard towards the main resport and look for the Jazz club, if you like that sort of thing, and we do, its a must !!
Beach was a 5 min walk and a bit busy for my blood, we took a boat trip from the harbour and went to a better beach nearby (papaguyo)

We have been to Playa Blance 4 times now in the last 6 years (always for October half term) and absolutely love the place. The weather has always been great, the odd spot of rain, but never enough to spoil the holiday and usually at night. Playa Blance is still a fairly new resort, all the buildings are low rise and it's great for families. The Rubicon Marina is lovely (brand spanking new) and the port in the little town has regular ferries to Fuertaventura, which is a nice day out for a change and only takes 1/2 hour to get there. There are two or three nice beaches, with the main one being the Dorada beach in front of the Yaiza Princess hotel. Great for sun bathing, snorkeling or just people watching!
Eating out is quite expensive now given the strength of the Euro against the Pound, and that's why we chose AI this time as we have been half board on our 3 previous trips. If you have children, we find this is the best way to maximise the benefits as it's free drinks, crisps and ice cream all day, the costs of which can otherwise add up. There's lots to do in Playa Blanca such as cycle riding (a couple of bike hire shops in the town & a lot of the hotels now offer this), the roads are dead flat and straight and there are also lots of cycle paths along main roads. We climbed the local (extinct!) volcano which is essentially at the back of the H10 Rubicon Palace Hotel, which only take about 15 mins from bottom to top, and then wrote our names with lava rock in the crator - Seems to be a bit of a local tradition and we've done it 3 times now!
The fishing off the rocks is pretty good and a bit of fun for the kids.

We went into Playa Blanca a few times. It is quite a busy bsutling resort with lots of restaraunts and bars. The shops are also good.

We didn't go on the beach.

I would certainly visit Playa Blanca again.
