Pool

Lovely hotel, great pool and lovely room. The room was very spacious, with two of us having a large bedroom, living space and bathroom. We were able to check in an hour early on our first day. Location of the hotel is good, about a 25 minute walk from central las americas area, so good if you don’t want to be too close to the strip. We had half board and no complaints about the food other than a lot of pork (fine if you like it!) and got quite repetitive after a few days with not a large choice or variety of food. However, the food they did have was tasty and serving staff gave amazing service. Lovely big pool and no struggle finding sunbeds at any point in the day. Lovely snack bar that served great cocktails throughout the day next to the pool. Daily entertainment next to the pool in the day and in the evening. We also booked in to the spa and had massages, the spa facilities were lovely and very nice staff but it is extra on top of your booking. However, we were told that we would be able to get late checkout and came back the next morning to pay for it and they said they weren’t able to do it, despite previously saying they could. It was alright as we were still able to use the hotel facilities for the 5 hours before our transfer. Overall a good hotel and would come again!

Gara Suites

We’re a group of golfers who were staying here for the 2nd time due to a decent 1st experience.  Good location and rooms, whilst pretty basic, are clean.  However this place has become the go to for youngsters who want to party all night and with no rules around noise this meant most nights without any sleep. Sitting out on the balcony or round the pool was a no no if you wanted to avoid getting stoned from the fog of weed.  The staff were unhelpful and rude and I wouldn’t have fed the food to my dog.  Definitely wouldn’t recommend (unless you want to party non stop).

Terrible hotel

Enjoyed our 4 nights at the Gara Suites. Came with a mate to play golf at the local club. Was struggling to find a decent value for money place in Play das Americas within easy reach of thr golf course. For under £1200 we bagged two rooms (I won't share) with an upgraded golf course view with breakfast included. Place was spotlessly clean, nice pool  bar and plenty of bedchairs for sunbathing. It's a young person's place so we were a little old @65... prepared to be shocked by the lack of clothing...thongs everywhere! We enjoyed being 5 mins from the golf pro shop ...the suites are 20/30 walk from resort centre but scooters are available to hire which can be handy and I understand Taxis are around Euros8. The actual accommodation is massive with a big lounge area separate bedroom and big bathroom. Bed was comfy. Can't say it was a cosy room but very clean. You can use the room towels round the pool but ne better to bring your own beach towels. 

Great place for a Golf Break

*STARTING WITH THE POSITIVES*
Hotel is nice, clean and the pool is good. 
Special mention to Robert, Jose and Angelica who were very good to us during our stay, 
Good atmosphere from the other customers staying here aswell. 

*NEGATIVES*
The cleaners were more interested with cleaning out my wallet than my actual room. I had €60 taken out of my wallet and when we went to complain at reception, the maths teacher looking fella was more worried about telling us about his 32 years experience in running hotels than actually helping us out with getting our money back or giving us a bit sympathy. They also thought it was a good idea saying it was our fault this happened…. the joke was so funny I forgot to laugh. 

As this happened very early in the holiday it did leave us with a bit of paranoia that our rooms were going to get raided like a Black Friday sale everytime we left. 

Other than this happening, all staff were nice and a big shout out to the three names I mentioned as they were great people and great at their job. 

I would consider coming back as like I said it is a really nice hotel and a nice atmosphere, but next time I come I’ll think about bringing my Ring Doorbell with me or my XL Bully for extra security. 

Thanks

Gara Suites more like Gara ‘Theives’

We spent a night here courtesy of TUI after they cancelled out flight home from Tenerife. Having spent the rest of our holiday at another hotel (review done seperately), this place was not of a great standard, although mysteriously had the same star rating as out other, much superior hotel.

Allegedly a 4* establishment, it was hard to see why. The 'apartments' were definitely 1970's vintage, complete with an orange tiled bathroom, ill fitting curtains, battered orange pine furniture and beds that were like granite. There was also a mysterious additional room but the door was locked, seemingly from the inside, guessing it may have been the kitchen, but who knows as it was clearly out-of-bounds.

We had room 47, in block zero. The whole vibe was that of a neglected, sad, lonely place. Rubbish piled outside some of the rooms, empty bottles etc. Personally I'd be pushed to give this place 3 stars, let alone the 4 it proudly displays.

It was around 10:30pm when we checked in. The staff were nice enough on reception, but clearly a bit overwhelmed by the sudden arrival of 44 passengers..... (only 2 in our party). We went straight to bed, hoping for a decent sleep, but it wasn't to be. between the rock hard mattress, the flat as a pancake pillow and the noise of slamming doors and furniture being dragged around, we manager about 2 hours sleep before getting up at 8am for breakfast.

The breakfast buffet was OK, but not a massive selection. Late morning went out to the pool area........OMG, it was like a 18-30 holiday....scantily clad youth everywhere. There was constant noise from the pool area. On reading other reviews, it seems that this hotel has become popular with Spanish youngsters for a weekend away. There were a few families there, but not many. The clientelle was mostly youth. Our other hotel was a tranquil Adult Only.

The staff in the bars and restaurant were good, very helpful, but the place just wasn't for us. Some may see it as a decent budget hotel (I'm hoping it's a budget hotel, but as TUI were paying, I've no real idea), but certainly not somewhere I would stay by choice. Still question how it gets a 4* rating compared to our other hotel (Which was the Guayarmina Princess for reference)

Hopefully I will never need to return.
