Lovely Holiday, take no notice of negative reviews! Checkin fine - however I think maybe a little more guidance on where the room is. The hotel is set on many levels and areas so it’s easily to get confusing, especially after an early morning & long flight. Room - more than spacious! Like a little apartment, has such a nice feeling and a huge balcony! The hairdryer is amazing, the best I’ve ever had in a hotel abroad. Pool - we spent most of our time around Pool 1 which I now understand as the quieter pool but we were ok with this, we made our own entertainment between us - pool 1 does have a bar (Delfin Bar) . Pool 2 near the snack bar is the one where the entertainment and games are & I think this is the more family orientated one too! Food - I can’t fault the food,

For the price we paid this was a great place to stay in our week in Gran Canaria. The food is fresh, although not amazing and doesn't change much, but we didn't expect it to be for the price. The beer is a nice local lager which is very nice although the wines are cold and low quality and the cocktails are from a machine. The highlight though is definitely the staff. In particular, Insa and John are so good. Insa works super hard every day doing aqua gym and other entertainment during the day and always keeps the energy high in the evening entertainment too, whatever he is getting paid it's not enough for the energy he puts in! If it wasn't for him then we wouldn't have spent much time in the hotel and would have enjoyed it far less. There's a bus stop right outside the hotel

I was slightly concerned going to this hotel after reading some negative reviews but we had the best holiday. I could not fault anything! Hotel was clean, staff friendly, entertainment team were great. Food was what you would expect in a 3-4 start hotel, drinks were good. We had a sea view room and the view was stunning. Plenty of sunbeds available by both pools.

Don’t believe the bad reviews! Me and my partner (late 20s) stayed here the end of October for a week as it was the cheapest holiday on the website, we wasn’t expecting much but all we was really after was a bed and a shower tbh. It out performed the reviews by a long shot. I’m not one for writing views but I’ll try to summarise Check in - Smooth & Quick Hotel - Very Clean Hotel grounds - Not ideal for people who struggle to walk, alot of steps to get anywhere but as expected for a hotel in that area. (Lifts are available but do get busy) Rooms - Very Clean, we stayed in a sea view apartment on the 5th floor. Drinks - Not bad for AI Food - Okay, as expected from a 3* we went out for lunch and dinner on 3 of the days so the AI food didn’t really get repetitive to

This could be a really nice but it does need a bit of improvement for this to be one of the Tui Suneo hotels. Travelled end of October for one week - weather was gorgeous and lovely and warm, we only had a 10 minute downpour in the week we was there. When we booked this hotel it was a 4T rating on Tui and on our booking m but as soon as we were home it changed to a 3T on the website which was very convenient. Food was very average and probably one of the worst variety of 3* AI hotels I’ve stayed at and I’m not a snob! I’ve stayed in a few 3* hotels. There wasn’t a great deal of choice and it was always luke warm at best. Within minutes of it being on the table it’s cold. Breakfast has the best choice but it was very busy at every mealtime. The size of the restaurant for

Dear Claire, Thank you very much for her feedback. We take note of your comments. In our buffet restaurant, we try to maintain a variety of food for our customers. Balls are not allowed in the pool, only under the supervision of the activity's entertainer. The courtesy room is offered as an alternative option so that you can shower, just as we offer to leave your suitcases at the reception until pick-up, it is an option offered by the hotel completely free of charge. Day by day we strive to continue improving. We hope to see you soon! Best Regards.

Don’t believe some of the negative reviews, make your own mind up. Holiday is what you make it. Staff work so hard to make sure you have a great stay. Excellent food choices for all tastes. Good location between Anfi (15 mins walk) or 5 min taxi into Puerto Rico The hotel is addressing some minor issues as it’s not long been taken over from TUI, sure it will only improve. Will definitely return next year. Maria on Reception and John working at the bar, are a credit to the team.

Please don't listen to the bad reviews. We had a brilliant time. Food was great, plenty to drink with a mid-night finish. Lovely hotel with amazing views. Yes there are steps but read the details....it didn't bother us and it was good exercise. Great bar team, restaurant staff very friendly, even the maintenance team. The entertainment team worked hard and were great fun. All in all a great time was had by all!

We’ve spent a week with three kids and grandparents in Marina Elite and absolutely loved it. We travel 6-7 times a year to different places, to 5/4* hotels. This is a very good All Inclusive hotel. Totally ignore the bad reviews. If someone wants more luxury, can go to Radisson’s 5 mins drive away, and pay double - doesn’t worth it. Even if someone has mobility issues, there are lifts everywhere. It’s clean, location and layout is in fact perfect. 14 minutes walk to Anfi beach, with the elderly and kids, totally worth it. Perfect sandy beach, no waves, really good for the little ones and teenagers too. We preferred the pool at lower level, also we were not keen on evening entertainment, just wanted to relax and make the most of what the island and location had to offer. We

Firstly I would like to mention how hard all the staff work. I really enjoyed the layout of the hotel and enjoyed the walks between the bars, but understand people with walking difficulties but there was lifts to assist. Great choice of drinks, snack bar was just that but ideal just for a quick snack, restaurant was normal AI but always had plenty of choice, theme nights food was very good. 1 bed apartment with good sofa bed in lounge , rooms clean and towels and bedding changed loads of time.entertainment staff pleasant and joyful Thanks for a very nice holiday

Be warned this place is not for anybody with mobility issues. The hotel itself is nice, nice rooms etc 2 decent pools, staff seemed OK. ROOMS: decent size, great big balcony, but the smell from the drains is horrible it stinks in your bathroom. English channels on TV bonus. LOCATION: Not great it's basically a hotel on a cliff, nothing else around, you can walk up hill to anfi Beach good 15mins walk and it's lovely. 5mins in a taxi to Rico €6-7, apart from that you are just on a main road. This hotel is in 2 half's and to get any drinks in the day you have to walk at least 10mins to the top pool bar, which is up 2 lifts across a road, the hotel if honestly like a maze it is not good at all. ENTERTAINMENT :basically due to a neighbour around the hotel this hotel is not

Dear Customer, We are sorry that your experience with us was not the best. We appreciate your feedback, this will help us improve every day. We are working to improve the variety of meals. Our hotel is on a mountain, for this reason we have several elevators throughout the hotel. We are in the middle of Anfi del Mar and Puerto Rico, connected via taxi and bus, it is a perfect location to visit both places. We have the best views! The sunsets are beautiful. Best Regards.
