The Hollywood Mirage offers lovely rooms and facilities. It is high above Los Cristianos of course and offers plenty of hills to get your exercise on.......much better than a gym! Plus a courtesy coach to the sea front and 2 sister hotels nearby. It is now owned by Silverpoint, a timeshare company.

Beverly Hills club in a studio apt . Quite adequate for a one week stay. Well furnished and equiped with an outside space. Visited on a promotional visit and knew we had to attend a presentation. Our consultant Alison Waterhouse was delightful. Although the presentation was longer than we anticipated we did not feel under any pressure to buy.
Our only complaint was the weather !!!!!!

My wife and I have just returned from a one week promotional holiday through Silverpoint at Hollywood Mirage.
The complex is situated at the top of a steep hill known as "cardiac Hill" as the name implies this location is not suitable for the disabled, infirm or anyone with walking problems. Having said that if you hired a car or made use of the taxi service or the courtesy bus you may well survive.
The complex is large and well maintained. We were allocated a studio on arrival (Room No 5202). Kitchen space is very small for preparing / cooking. It has a 2 ring cooker in place of the normal 4 rings, did not have a conventional oven but did have a dual microwave, crockery was OK but the cereal bowls were like a small dish you put sweets or pot purri in to sit on a table. Fridge was standard size with a small freezer compartment inside. No double bed as requested only twin beds. Poor supply of coat hangers but did get extra upon request. Lacked cupboard space for suitcases which meant they had to be left lying in the room.Furnishings were good quality. We requested high floor with sea view - got neither. Settee pulled down to make double bed which would be ok for family with children but not 4 adults as there would be no privacy. Air conditioning temperature could not be controlled as it was preset.
Internet Wi-Fi very expensive, 6 euros per day or 25 euros per week and you can only get it in reception area.
The promotion meeting was interesting and informative but time consuming - 7 hours. We did not receive the "Hard Sell" as I have read about many times from other reviews, ours was a more laid back casual approach, but still a sales pitch, at the end of the day that's why you were invited on holiday.
Overall the holiday was good, weather was good, what more can you ask for?

Just come back from a week at the Hollywood Mirage. The resort is around 25 years old but appears to have been fully refurbished in the last few years, so everything looks clean and well presented. Our room was a studio appartment with twin beds which were a little hard but ok. Lounge area had a double sofa bed. Kitchen was small but well equipped with fridge, hot plate, microwave oven and all the usual utensils.

Large wardrobe and plenty of storage. Bathroom was very good with bath and good shower, but only just enough hot water for 2 quick showers. A few comp tioletries also left in bathroom. Toilet did not flush properly and they took 3 days to fix it (hence only 3 star instead of 4). Room also had air conditioning. There was a safe in the room which they charge an extra 12 euro per week to use.

Room was not cleaned every day, but that wasn't a problem.

Balcony was large with seats and table.

Resort has several large swimming pools with plenty of sun beds and nightly entertainment such as Abba, Queen tribute bands plus some local musicians. There is also a gym, spa and small bowling alley, hair dresser onsite. Resort quite quiet with average age being over 50. There is also a well stocked supermarket on site.

NO FREE WIFI !!!! These days internet access should really be free. It cost 6 euro per day or 25 euro per week. Plenty of free wifi in the local bars so not a problem.

We stayed in the Judy Garland block (5000 numbered rooms) and there was a persistant noise in the room of a plant room on the lower floor. This really was annoying. you could hear it all night. A pump would start up and stop about 5 or 6 times per minute, all day, all night. Take ear plugs or make sure you not in this block!

As others state this resort is at the top of a long hill. There is a courtessy bus which runs about every 45 min down to the town from 10am to about 7pm. if you have a hire car there is no parking on site, you have to park in the street which was fairly easy.

TIME SHARE PROMO

We stayed here as a free timeshare promo. We had read some horror stories about Silverpoint and their sales techniques. We spent just over 3 hours with their sales rep who was very good, sold the resort very well, but we weren't interested in buying and kept saying no. She respected this and I think quickly realised there was no sale to be had and she thanked us for our time and it was over. I don't consider timeshare ownership to be a bad thing, but you MUST consider this kind of purchase very carefully and the very long term payments you have to make, balanced with what you can get out of it now and in the future
