Bungalows Club Maspalomas, Grand Canary

Advantages: Good Accomodation & location
Disadvantages: Pools not heated, uphill walk from beach

...We stayed here in January/February 2007. This is the secind time we stayed here. The first time was about 4 years ago when we booked as part of a package through Airtours. This time we booked the flights and accomadation independently and saved a lot of money. Our flights were on scheduled aircraft. London Heathrow to Gran Canaria via Madrid with Iberia. The return with Iberia to Madrid and British Airways to Heathrow. There are a choice of 1 bed bungalows(which we booked last time) and 2 bed bungalows, which we had this time. The bungalow was roomy.

Advantages: Value for Money
Disadvantages: lack of evening entertainment

Advantages: Nice location
Disadvantages: Infestation of Spider Ants and the incompitent action of the hotel staff

We booked a week break to stay at what we thought was a 5 star hotel arriving late on Saturday night we went straight to our room which looked very nice and was well placed in the hotel 5th floor and overlooking the pool. When we woke up the next morning we noticed that we were infested with tiny spider like ants all around the room, we went to the welcome meeting and informed the Holiday rep and Hotel reception they agreed to fumigate the room whilst we were out, we found a load of these dead spider/ants when we returned so we thought this would be the last of the matter. Next day it got worse they were every where in our clothes in the safe everything we moved or touched these tiny little creatures were everywhere, again we reported... Read review
