Very happy

Went as 4 adults, A tui blue hotel they say its a 2 star should be atleast 3 stars, staff really nice and polite, felt respected, view was amazing especially when sun was setting, apartment was nice and clean abit run down espically the tiles around the showers and fridge was marked and painted over in areas but nothing major or a hazard, some rooms have 2 taps for shower blue side is pressure red side is tempature, we learned that on day 3 after spending ages each day trying to get our right temperature, some rooms only have the 1 pull and turn handle on there showers, view from balcony's were nice and amazing view when sun was setting, only thing was air con lowest was set for 18, I like the cold but after a while you felt the room cooling, air con turns off once the doors opened and manually needs to be put on when door closed, hardly any noise unless somebody is under the window outside talking loudly, inside and outside hotel even the streets was clean if you ever saw anything it was leaves on floor where they had fallen off but we saw staff cleaning the ground and room around pool and animities every morning apart from wednesday and saturdays, loads of parking spaces around the back sode of hotel, (would be classed as front as thats along the road side of building) food was nice only food repetitive was pizza and chips, kids even have there own little section table lowered so they could help themselfs (unless its ice cream depending on the childs height would need an adult to get some) different days were different themes like seafood, Italian, Mexican ect, had a small vegan section which was just as nice as the food from regular section, breakfast had a wide range from cereals to toast, english breakfast and Oriental with fresh hamlets made there and then, they had a Mr whippy ice cream machine, reps were around from 9.00-20.00 in main reception, activities were good, kids clubs, adult pool polo and exercising, games around pool for adults and kids together, you get towels in your room for the pool lounges, you can swap and get clean ones from the lifeguards on a Wednesday and Saturday morning till about 14.00, it 3 minutes walk to beach and 5 minute walk to hotel restaurant and bar, from our apartment, atmosphere was nice, and calming, spa was lovely had full body massage, felt light as a feather afterwards, (doesnt come included had to pay for services) location wasnt bad, if you like walking theres a market on wednesday and Saturday 9.00-14.00, more aimed for those who like crafts which would take about an hour if you didn't go in shops or you could take a taxi for around €6-€8 which would take 10minutes, alot of shops along the way including bars resturants shops, harbor and 2 small beaches, only thing was and its nothing to do with the hotel was when about to go onto the beach there was a man selling big blankets and he wouldn't take no for an answering he would follow you till you gave in or gave him a stern no and told him to go away, Unless you had in already then he left you alone. Little shops where beach is, and a couple of resturant food was nice from all of them, (not part of the hotel) and the tavern which you get 1 free meal there if you are in a all inclusive package and there for a week, (pre book slot using tui blue app) Evening entertainment was held at the bar across from the resurant, opened from 18.30 ends at 23.00, starts with kids entertainment till around 20.30 which switched to quizzes, singing, Magic show once a week, arabatics once a week, sing bingo, dancing, locals came in to single and perform some evenings and an outside area attached to entertainment hall which had a TV for football when on, when ordering drinks like malibu and coke they would give you malibu and you would pour in your own cola, you help yourself to none alcoholic drink they only serve the alcohol, only 1 member of staff who served at the bar when asked for alcohol malibu and coke would literally fill the whole plastic cup (plastic cups are they reuse) with it meaning we would have to get 2-3 cups extra each to make the drink up at first he would do the correct amount they after 3 days gave the whole cup filled and we only went up for like 3 drinks each night we was there. Would go again when its a relaxing holiday.

Lovely holiday!

We had a lovely holiday in Lanzarote and this hotel! I would like to thank the Chef and the Management for prioritizing the budget for food as the products used are of very good quality and high standards. We travel a lot and can definitely confirm that the meals were fresh, delicious and of all sorts of tastes and variety. The rooms are quite spacious, quiet at night, with beautiful views over the see and pool area. I would also like to thank the youth lady who sang by the pool on Sunday lunch time for making our day and lunch so enjoyable! We would definitely recommend renting a car and driving around the island! Don't miss El Golfo and Legomar - the house of Omar Sheriff. We had a lovely time, hope you enjoy your holiday too!

Really great hotel

Great location although a little quiet. Apartment was complete with everything you would need for stay only although we were all inclusive. Reception was efficient and helpful. The food had a great variety every day and was delicious. Entertainment most nights and children's disco. Would definitely recommend.

A good stay .

Location great . Hotel good, but could do with maintenance especially in pools tiles missing, steps not feeling secure around the quiet pool, which we found on day 3 . Great choice of food but needs to be a lot hotter. I personally had to microwave most of my meals 🙃. Rooms a very good size, and cleaned well. We had a maintenance issue a couple of days in ,sorted out within half hour . Evening entertainment! Well we did a few nights but always left to go elsewhere, utter rubbish, but we gave it a go ! Staff and service very good all around hotel . Would we stay again 🤔 not sure . But we loved Playa Blanca.

Great holiday after a bad start

We spent 8 days at Flamingo Beach in September. We have previously stayed several times before , the last time being 2020 just before the pandemic that year.We arrived late at night and the superior room we were allocated was not as described on the Tui website.We are in our 70s , 28steps up to the apartment in the dark.and over the bar!!! We went back to reception and the receptionist was most unhelpful and told us nothing could be done and we would have to wait and see the tui rep in the morning. We were told we could go to the restaurant were food would be laid out for us, this was abysmal , processed cheese and ham with dried up bread.We ended up just having a plum each. We wentvto bed that night very unhappy and hungry. The next morning we went to reception and a completely different story, the receptionist was very helpful as was Shelly the tui rep.We moved apartments at 1 pm and what a difference. The food in the restaurant was excellent and some of the best we have had in a hotel abroad. Special mention to Andreas our cleaner who was excellent. Weather was fabulous so all in all a brilliant holiday after a bad start.We will definitely be back but will make sure that that we book a room ( hopefully) more suitable to our requirements.
