“Badly in Need of Refurbishing”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 November 2010

We wanted a week in the Canaries in November and this place was recommended by RCI. Firstly, if you are elderly or disabled, this is NOT the place for you ! To go anywhere on this site involves lots and lots of steps. The first apartment they gave us on arrival had a terrace three feet from a main walkway and was very, very tatty inside so we went back to reception and asked for an apartment with a balcony. They were extremely pleasant and transferred us straight away. Our new place was in the same condition as the last - the bathroom was disgusting with cement painted white around the edges of the bath, the surround cracked in several places and the bottom of the bath grey/black . There was a very crude shower over the bath but no rubber mat or grab rail so you were in peril of slipping when showering. There was one socket for the kettle, toaster and microwave and no teapot. All the cupboard doors were loose and chipped. The sofa-bed was very uncomfortable - a 50cm thick piece of foam over slats and the whole thing creaked with any movement. There is no air-con just a ceiling fan in the bedroom and living area. The patio door had suffered a break in at one point and was very crudely repaired and, I felt, very insecure. We rented the safe - an extortionate £21 per week. The furniture on the balcony was three odd chairs and a table that I would have put in the skip years ago. The views from the balcony were super (we were on the fourth floor) but I felt sorry for the people in rooms 200-2?? as they faced a white wall ! The pool looked great and although the air temperature was 25c-27c it was freezing cold, so cold my sister couldn't get in. During the day very few people ventured in although most of the sunbeds (maybe 100) were occupied. Around 7.30am the usual bunch were out claiming sunbeds with towels. We had dinner in the buffet restaurant two nights and although it completely lacks atmosphere the food was very good for £10 - good choice and three courses. The saving grace for the Aquarius is its position - a short walk (up and down lots of steps) from the harbour with all its eating places and a 'do-able' walk into the centre of Puerto del Carmen.
I for one will certainly not be going back unless they carry out major refurbishment .(including heating the pool!)

“great hotel to unwind at.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 September 2010

My wife and I have just returned home after staying at the Aquarius,the hotel staff are friendly,the food is of a good standard,rooms are quite spacious and very clean,most rooms don't have air-con but ceiling fans instead that was our only gripe during our 10 day stay.
Would definately return at a later date when hopefully the rooms are air-conditioned,

“Don't pay for all exclusive”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 May 2008

Where do we start...I booked this hol with my friend Tina as she had never experienced Lanz. I love Lanz and when we arrived it was roasting. We had arrived to the end of a heatwave. The staff at reception never broke a smile. They gave us a room that was miles away from reception and a bottom floor. Every second floor is a bottom floor as resort is stepped back in 2 floor sections..( request a balcony ) If you get a bottom floor then you have to be very carfeul as someone can just pop in and grab your bag...The patio is nearly part of the walk way so they are on top of you.. No privacy....

Plenty of sunbeds but eleven umbrellas for over a hundred beds and we were told the others are broken. Couldn't believe they expected people to stay exposed all day. So as you can imagine pool area was quiet.. I think the idea is to make life for guests uncomfortable so they go elsewhere and do not avail of inclusive drinks..

The breakfast is fine, but lunch and dinner is awful. It is like the chef is given a prison budget and told to repeat it every day. If you like dessert go out to dinner. If you like hospital or prison food then you are in for a treat......... Spaghetti bol was pasta and ketchup.euwwh

The staff bar one waiter make you feel like you are bothering them and never smile or say a good morning.

The rooms are fine but need refurb, fans are old and rickety. We talked to other guests and it seemed to be pot luck if you had a fan that worked. We hired one for 16 euro for 3 nights ( rip off ) but necessary.

Nightly entertainment is like most hotels in Lanzarote............very outdated but god help them......they try....

To be honest if I won a free break in this hotel I would refuse to go back...........

“Going down hill”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2006

people found this review helpful

We have stayed in Club Aquamar on at least three previous occasions over the last 7 years and the decor has not improved in that time. We are RCI (timeshare) members and expect a certain standard of accommodation, which club Aquamar is failing to deliver. On this occasion our fridge was not working and it took from Thursday to Tuesday to get it changed. The hot water was brown on our arrival and was never sorted. While the view is excellent I doubt if we will make a return visit to the resort.

“Not Impressed with Club Aquarius Aquamar”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2006
7
people found this review helpful

My family & I stayed here over Christmas & New Year 2005 and were not impressed at all with the apaertments.
As an RCI member, I would expect a certain level of accommodation, and unfortunately this fell far short of the RCI standard on offer.
The units themselves were extremely basic, and quite old and tatty.
We have a 2 year old child and I had to carry his pushchair up numerous flights of stairs 3 or 4 times a day due to the poor access ways (not recommended for disabled etc.)
On a plus point, the views and the location were excellent.
The on site restaurant we also found to be of an excellent standard and service was excellent.
