I stayed in hotel oro blanco, i was enjoying my stay when i happened to notice most majority of my babys clothing going missing!! i can only assume it was the cleaners, i was not very happy as i had to make do with what was left! hotel was informed about this, nothing could be done! also whilst we were there 5 hotel rooms got broken into, all valuables taken (money) lucky for us are room was fine. bar staff didnt really like to serve you would rather spend there time chatting amongst each other. at night time, prostitutes operate outside the hotel, grabbing any man in sight......not very nice to see!!! pool was a nice size but really cold! i would recommend tenerife to anybody, but as for oro blanco i will be taking my custom elsewhere, therefore i wont have to worry about my daughters clothing!

I stayed in these Apartments November 03, was still so so hot and it was great just lazing by the pool knowing everyone back home was freezing! The apartments were very clean, never saw one creepy crawlie, the pool was very clean and there is a pool side bar which serves alcohol from about 10 in the morning (much to the convenience and pleasure of me and my boyfriend).
The staff were lovley and our rooms were left very tidy. Not sure of the entertainment as me and my boyfriend were out every night, think there is karoke or something. It is only a short walk to the beach and the pubs n clubs, alot of nice restaurants nearby. Definatly recommend these apartments to couples and groups!
Can't wait to go back!

Went in August 03 and had the best time ever. Hotel is in a great location, not too far into the center but close enough to walk in 5 minutes. Didnt see a bug or any grime in the rooms. Pool was great, as was the size of the apartments. Food wasnt nice but loads of bars to eat at anyway. Staff we pretty friendly and pleasant, especially the receptionist!! Going back in a weeks time and I cannot wait. Strongly recommend it!

I must admit the hotel & staff are very nice the staff are very friendly & I found are happy to help,as much as possible. Although the pool area can be quite slippy, but that is to be expected where lots of people splashing around in the water is. The cleaners I also found to be quite friendly & also kept my room very clean & bed made. Also the reps were very helpful & friendly, had a few good nights out with them.

a member of our party had a piece of jewellry stolen from the room our own fault we should have put it in the safe, we can only assume that it was the cleaner as noone else had access to the room.
the hotel was like a building site airtours informed us of the work taking place but assured us it would be finished a couple of days into our holiday. this lasted the whole duration of the fortnight.
most of the barstaff were friendly and helpful apart from one spanish girl who did her best to ignore her customers especially when it was the happy hour.
we wouldnt return to the oro blanco in a hurry

one of the above posts sums this up .4 young guys had a great time. We, a 54 and 51 year couple didn't.
Mostly young people, lots of drunken behaviour and swearing etc --- and the boys were just as bad!
Too near "red light"area with dubious ladies hanging around.
rooms very good size for us, beds for 6 people, however most furniture broken or damaged. not particularly clean.
Pool bar more like a railway station cafe, dirty with no atmosphere and video machines at full volume.
Heard reports of, but never saw, rats in area.
We went for a cheap holiday----- that is what we got.
Convenient for getting into Los Cristianos.
If you want a little bit of style give this a miss.

We have been twice to this Hotel and are going back in October this year. The reception (24hr)staff are friendly and speak excellent English, (as I always say; it helps if you are polite and at least attempt some Spanish). We have stayed in an apartment and a studio. The studio had a lovely view of the sea. It deserves a better rating that a 2-star (I have stayed at worse places with more stars!)
It could get a little noisy at times, but not too bad (although we didn't go at the height of summer). The weather was always fantastic.
The hotel is in a great location. Far enough away from the noisy bars, but close enough to walk.
I can't review the hotels entertainment as we didn't go as there is so much to do in Tenerife.
The restaurants locally do fantastic food and you can get any cuisine you want, at such low prices.
Ok, so if you want sophistication and culture, this is not the place to go. But it's cheap and fantastic if you just want to get away from Britain during the cold months for some great weather and have a jolly good time eating and drinking.
