Sol Lanzarote All Inclusive

Net ingecheckt in Sol Lanzarote en keert terug voor onze 8e vakantie hier. Boek altijd een kamer met zeezicht, en bij deze gelegenheid kregen we de slechtste kamer toegewezen die we ooit hebben gehad. Blij met de kamer die we bij eerdere gelegenheden kregen, gingen we rechtstreeks naar de receptie om te vragen of ze de loyaliteit wilden eren en ons misschien naar een meer geschikte kamer zouden verplaatsen die niet over de ruggen van anderen heen keek ... ons werd verteld dat dit niet kon gebeuren en om het later in de vakantie opnieuw te proberen. Mijn vrouw en ik brengen tijdens onze vakantie een aanzienlijke hoeveelheid tijd door op het balkon van de kamer, het uitzicht op de achterkant van andere kamers is niet wat we hadden gepland voor haar verjaardag! We zullen hier niet voor de 9e keer zijn, deze klantenservice, in een rustige januari, heeft ons meteen afgeschrikt! Het eiland is prachtig maar wij gaan voor volgend jaar op zoek naar andere accommodatie!

Sol Lanzarote was een uitstekende keuze voor mijn gezin. We zijn met 3 kinderen in de kerstvakantie geweest en ze hebben het fantastisch gehad. We boekten een kamer met zijdelings uitzicht op zee, wat erg leuk was. Mijn jongste is er één, dus ze hadden een wieg, ook een slaapbank en het kingsize bed. Het resort was kindvriendelijk en het eten was goed. Hoewel er niet veel keuzes waren voor onze kinderen, die kieskeurige eters zijn! Ik zou er zeker weer verblijven en het ten zeerste aanbevelen! :)

We enjoyed a week here in February. The place was immaculately clean and tidy. With young children there was plenty to do and places nearby to visit. Food was a concern before travelling but I am glad to say our worry was not justified. There was so much choice and different options every day. Plenty of choice pretty much all day long and the entertainment was also very good. So much so we are looking to stay again next year.

Jst an average hotel, could be good with a little effort! Tired needs updating! Don't get the paper cup policy, seems like a lot of waste! Room was a great size, but again needed a little tlc here and there! Bathroom definitely needed work, a shaver socket wouldn't go a miss! Location was great, can't get closure to the beach than here!

Pros: Great location. In front of the beach and basically next to Irish pubs and shops (for all the good quality versions of the fake Bags and belts and clothes and anything you need for beach and pool and souvenirs) and restaurants by the sea. There are no cars allowed-it’s bikes and pedal carts and walkers and joggers all along the seafront in front of the hotel between the pool and the sea. You can rent the bikes and carts and mobility scooters right outside if you want them. Excellent kids club/animation team. Water carpet every day at 1pm for the kids is great. Water games in the afternoon are fantastic and the lifeguards and animation team are wonderful. Nice looking rooms, clean rooms, clean hotel indoor and outdoor areas. Cleaning staff do a very good job. Massage place is the best massage and reflexology I have ever had. Layout of the whole place is great and well thought out (except for snack bar-see cons!) with everything very centralized compared to some All Inclusives that have pools all over. The 3 pools are together. Excellent new playground which is a bit away from the pools and is quiet-there are loungers over by it that are great if you want some peace-it’s like a hidden spot. Good size big rooms (we had superior sea view 3309 third floor-nice size with fridge and microwave and nice size bathroom 285€ smallish balcony and beautiful view of pool and the sea and beautiful sea waves sound at nice with the doors open. Local beer in the taps is fine (but see cons!). The atmosphere and vibe around the pool is lively but still classy. There is loud music but not overly loud and there are quieter parts. It’s a good place for families and also grandparents and older visitors without kids with activities for adults on the terrace throughout the day…there is a nice balance and they have done very well with the entertainment and overall vibe. Games room and pool tables etc are reasonable and don’t overly rip the kids off. ATM on site. Laundry and gym all handy and well taken care of. Good signage and all very easy to find. Hairdressers and small souvenir shop and a very handu well priced little supermaket for food and water and all sorts of bits is just by the front entrance.Reception is the hub for all things needed which makes things nice and simple. Taxis easily called from reception. Puerto Del Carmen ***** is €5 and 5-10 mins away and taxis turn up out front immediately. Cons: Restaurant is like a big self serve cafeteria with mostly sloppy saucy dishes. We are not big drinkers so didn’t think we would care about the bad reviews of the drinks system-but it’s truly awful. Wine in a paper cup from a push button type machine just feels so icky and not a holiday fresh drink vibe. All the fresh drinks at the bar (vodka and mixer, rum and mixer, mojito etc) were just as bad…everything tastes cheap and chemically. Same taste off the food and even the coffee and ice creams…chemical taste…cheap ingredients? Bad water? Not sure. Beer from the

Superb Family Break” Just come back from a great week at Sol Lanzarote. We upgraded for a Sea View and this was well worth it as the views were stunning! Lovely food each day and the beers/wine/cava were excellent, the plastic cup system is good as saves a lot of wastage and cups hanging around. Entertainment staff in particular worked so hard in the pool and at the kids disco, well done 👍 Thanks for a great stay.
