Had a great time. It had everything we needed in apartments, very clean. Pool bar food was lovely and we never had bad meal. The staff were so nice and friendly there, barbecue on Wednesday nights and the food was lovely.

Would stay here again.

Poor holiday
9 years 4 months ago
Just got back from possibly one of my poorest holidays ever. I spent days looking at reviews from Thomas Cook website to make sure I picked the right holiday for myself, wife and 2 young grandchildren. To start off with there is no entertainment apart from a quiz night and pig racing once a week. Children get told off for jumping in the pool by the lifeguard and you are not allowed any inflatable's in pool only in the paddling pool.

Now upon reading reviews it states that Acuarios Sol 2 is for families, I couldn't find anything for children to do apart from swim and play pool. On arrival at complex we did not get a welcome pack, we were only shown a map as to where to go to find our room. I found the reception staff very poor in customer relations especially the male who in my opinion was ignorant. The male pool attendant spent most of his time messing about on his phone and not even watching the pool. The outside pool and surrounding area was washed down every day so why can't the rooms be cleaned more often.

The room was only cleaned once a week, the towels and bed linen only changed once a week. The shower fell of the wall second day, the outside light didn't work until I complained, the mirror in bedroom fell of the wall on the 3rd day smashing all over floor, bedside lamp fell in bits, overrun with ants every time we prepared food even to the point they were in the kettle. Little things happening every day that in the end after complaining to rep I told her anymore and I want out. I have written virtually the same review on Acuarios Sol review page only to be told that my review doesn't come within Thomas Cooks guidelines so they will not print it. I thought the idea of having a review page was for people like myself to make a judgement on where you want to spend your hard earned money. Another point is I read that a breakfast at Acuarios Sol was 2 Euros, I paid 5.50 Euros so I believe they have 2 menus one for outside school holidays and one for school holidays.

Hotel tip: Best steak house TEX MEX or the American Indian who do a steak in Jack Daniels sauce. Chinese food try The Sunshine. Indian try the one near crazy golf on the front. If you want fish go to old town where the fish come right of the boat into the pan.

Loved My Holiday Here, Wish The Euro Wasn't so Bad Or Id Be Back Again

my room was excellent perfect size for me and the friend.
group of us went and loved it completely everything about it.
you always forget the good parts when sumthin bad goes wrong but couldnt fault it one bit
the staff in the pool bar was excellent, meet a great girl called emma, so friendly and very chatty think we spent most of the day havin a banter with her shes great
two philopeno girls on during the day makin the food were very friendly and so was suzie the owner top lady
dangers dave the entertainement guy was brill done go carting, quizzes and the parot show were him. learned us a good card game callled chase the ace. the entertainment was dead on even thou the town wasnt far, after the pool bar quietened we headed into town

would deffo go here again without a doubt see you all in 2010 for defo.

without the staff maybe it wouldnt b as good but if i was to give it a rating it wud be five out five

Me and my family went to lanzarote last year. My mum and dad and 2 brothers were in one apartment while me and my pal were in another next door. The apartments are clean and only 5 mins walk away from the main strip. Me and my friend walked home every night but it would only cost you 3 euros in a taxi. The apartments are in a quiet area and is ideal for a family. The food in the pool bar is amazing especially the burgers and the onion rings and are great to cure a hangover. The only downside is it was mostly families with young children or older teens and my 13 year old brother had no company. We enjoyed staying in these apartments and me and my pal have booked up to go back in august 09.

Spent a week there with my family (two adults three children) the rooms were more than adequate in size for us all and spotless, they were cleaned everyday and towels replaced every other day. Food was available for purchase but we tended to go to town in the evening and used the facilities available in the apartment at lunchtime.
Staff were friendly, helpful and very courteous.
There is a quite a walk to the main front but well worth it (we did find short cuts to get to our destination throughout the week). Entertainment was on offer but basic and limited. Only downside to the apartments was you were required to hire both a toaster and kettle which was expensive, fortunately due to these web pages we went prepared with our own.

Spent a week at Acuario sol 1, apartment was clean, cosy and just right for me and my friend!!

We arrived late as had flight delays and found receptionist not very helpful when asking where room was, luckily a kind lady showed us as her's was next door.

It had a small pool which was secluded though we mainly used bigger pool at Sol 2, which also had a pool bar which did good food, had friendly staff and regular nightly entertainment, enjoyed the quiz n bingo nights, had lots of laughs.

Was situated in a quiet area, plenty of supermarkets close at hand, short walk to the sea front to all bars and restaurants!
