Location
The entertainment was made up of a group of 4 singers with an ABBA night, 80's night and the likes. They were average at best with one of the guys threatening to shatter the glasses in the bar with his out of tune notes.
The real problem though was that it was the same group every night. The pool area very noisy with kids having a great time from 9 AM to 7PM so not relaxing if thats what your after. Lots of sunbeds and umbrellas. We never had any difficulty getting ours.
There is 2 small pools - really suitable for toddlers and a larger pool that the bigger kids took over. 3 pool tables at the pool and a table football machine. 2 restaurants there also. Kids could eat free at any time of the day with a paying adult - so good value. The staff here were very pleasant also.
Rooms were cleaned very well 5 times a week. Our room was not massive. Any smaller and I would have been disappointed. We did have a nice view of the pool though.

The weather was great, the company fab, but I honestly couldn't recommend this hotel.
The kids club was for kids with a parent!! our kids wouldn't go, the entertainment during the day was water aerobics at full volume in the only pool, not great for a relaxing sunbathe.
The staff smile a lot but when it came to do something, book a late checkout room, they were hopeless.

We have just returned to Birmingham after having spent 2 weeks at the Sunwing. We did have a fantastic holiday in Tenerife.
The hotel was very nice and was just as it looks in the brochure. Very clean and excellent staff, friendly and helpful. The only down side was you needed to be up at about 7.30 if you wanted to get a sunbed around the pool area, and being a parent with a child that was a must; so on an couple of occasions we had to go to the beech as there were no sunbeds available at the hotel. The beech was about a 5 minute walk with various shops to look in on the way and it was excellent so that was not too much of a problem.
We did on two occasions eat at the hotel and both times the food was excellent and I certainly could recommend eating there.
The only reason that I would not visit this hotel again is the lack of entertainment for the children. My daughter is 9 years of age and the so called mini-disco was most of the time in Swedish and only suitable for a 2 - 3 year old child. If the hotel sorted out more entertainment for the whole family catering for all nationalities that go to the hotel then I would certainly go back to this hotel.
One restaurant that I would highly recommend is the Spanish one next to Lock Ness on the seafront. We had a fantastic meal here the night before we left and my only disappointment was we did not try it before then. The meal was wonderful with a good selection of food available and the staff were very polite and could not do enough for you.
Highly recommend people to try it.

We found the apts were very clean and the maid came in to clean 5 times a week. They provide you with pool and beach towels free of charge.
The pool area was always clean and tidy,each evening they collected all the balls and inflatables that were left behind and they were placed in a lost and found basket next to the pool. Very useful if you forgot something.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
The food in La Tascos restaurant was very good and was always hot and freshly cooked. You could see the kitchen from your table. It was a very child friendly restaurant and the children ate free at breakfast, lunch, dinner, when a adult ate a meal.
I would stay at this hotel again I am booking now for next year.

The apartment was bright and clean and I found all of the staff to be particularly welcoming and friendly. We only had breakfast and lunch once, both of which were fine as there are so many good places to eat within walking distance (best breakfast at the Colonial or Bentleys.
There were alot of kids and it was quite noisy around the pool area. My friend and I spent most of our time sunbathing on the sun terrace and I suggested that these areas should be adult only for those of us without kids. Would definitely consider staying here again.

Location is good 2 min down hill to beach front.rooms are not apartments as all one room except sliding door seperating bedroom from front room and very dark not much lighting.
Fanabe is great for a relaxing holiday as its away from all the hussle and bussle. would go back again to area but for an extra ten min walk up hill recomend ocean pallace.
Didn't eat in resturant didn't look to nice as this is a sweedish hotel so think most of food is catered for them . plenty of good places to eat though, good one is turn right as soon as you come out hotel bit pricey but really worth it, bentlys on beach front good english food as well.
Weather was cloudy and rained on and off for at least 4 days of our 2 week stay. still very hot thou when sun was out, entertainment place was dead at 12 every night .
Thats my thoughs folks hope it helps a bit. Oh Yeah cleaners wake u up about 8 830 every day banging hovers about and entering your room so not much chance of a little lie in.
But if you have kids I suppose your awake anyway , all in all familys would say yes if you want to fight for pool space , couples or groups with no kids would not recomend this one .

This is our 15th year to this resort and the apartments are situated central to all the bars/restaurants and only 5min walk to the beach front promenade.
This is Scandinavian owned and all the staff were excellent nothing was too much trouble with perfect English being spoken.
The entertainment was limited but we did see the Abba show which was well worth a visit, shows start at 9.30pm and finish at 10.30pm.
This is a very family oriented hotel and tends to get very noisy around the pool area in the day with very little space to swim in the pool with so many children and airbeds in the pool, there were plenty of sunbeds avail all day, a children's club was very useful and had good organised activities.

As all previous reviews say, this is a very clean, very modern and very friendly hotel. The size and setup of the rooms can not be faulted, very Ikea, but compared to other self-catering apartments, that's a very welcome change of scene!
The staff/cleaners were excellent and must take pride in their work as they too can not be faulted.
There is one thing to note however, this is certainly a more 'family' orientated hotel, so those who visit as a couple should expect lots of children around the pool with their usual loud screams and splashes!! That said, there's Lolo and Bernie, who'll quietly take the children away (don't worry, they do return..eventually!)
Having said that, we would certainly visit this hotel again without reservation.

We did eat on the one occasion at the LA Tasca restraunt on location of the hotel and found the food acceptable, but only did this the once.
The hotel is right on the sea front which was an added bonus, lovely and clean aswell, although the locals attitude to tourism of late left a lot to be desired.
Hotel staff were great, did not meet our Rep though i belive she was there everyday.
Entertainment was brillinat JukeBox Shows and 80's theme nights were amazing, a must see when staying there.
We are booking again for next year and traking other familiy members, as the hotel was excellent for families and the disabled acess was top notch.
We felt safe and secure through out our stay.
