Good Points

Friendly staff

Food was always hot and plenty of it.

Nati - hotel Matre'd (excellent) - greets everyone with a "kiss"!


Bad Points

Resort of Costa Teguise and especially surrounding area very poor, hardly anywhere to go.

Food generally okay, but cuts of meat left a lot to be desired.

Bed was like a slab of concrete! (Most uncomfortable)

Weather was hot but very very windy which gets rather annoying when you constantly feel buffeted every day! We were aware that it is windy in Lanzarote but did not think it would be to that extent.


General Comments

Having read the reviews for the Coronas Playa Hotel prior to booking our holiday we felt we had made the right decision in booking this holiday due to the level praise it seemed to receive.

However, on arrival found the resort, especially the surrounding area of the hotel, to be pretty poor, hardly any bars especially and it is at least a 20 minute walk to the resort centre!

The beds are extremely uncomfortable, never slept on such a hard bed in my life!

Food generally is okay as always hot and plenty of it, however, meat was rather fatty/grissly.

The weather although hot, was extremely windy - which got rather annoying - was glad only there for a week.

All in all I would not really recommend Costa Teguise to anyone, although the hotel was okay!

    You are being a bit fussy on this report, the hotel is a Thomson Gold Star Hotel, the resort is lovely and quiet, no rowdy lager louts, what is a 20 minute walk, it is a lovely walk along the seafront if you want it more lively go to Benidorm or Faliraki or better still Blackpool.

    Not being fussy - gave my opinion, that’s what it’s for!!

    I do not wish to go to those places - thank you!
    The brochure states numerous bars/restaurants - not in my view, very limited choice and did not wish to walk into the main resort every day when its takes an average of 20 minutes to get there!

    I am going to stay at this hotel in 10 days time. This was booked on reviews from this site and holidays uncovered. I have now heard that there are problems with the pool area. I had hoped that there would be some feed back on this, on one of these sites.

    Having read this comment, I find it hard to believe we are talking about the same hotel, we found everyone very friendly and the walk to the centre along the seafront lovely, everywhere very clean.

    I entirely agree with you ANDYGINA you could not get a much cleaner place.

    I am glad that I am not in the minority about the Coronas, I have only four weeks untill I go back and am really looking forward to it. Had a bit of an accident recently dislocated and broke my shoulder so this holiday has come at a good time. If anything has changed will let you all know when I return.

    My boyfriend and I are staying at the Coronas Playa Hotel in November 2005. I find it very hard to believe that you had a rotton time there and all the poor comments that you have made!!! I looked up this hotel on the Holidays Uncovered site and found over 50 reviews or more and they all reported back excellent comments and we are really excited and can't wait for our holiday to begin. I hope for our sakes that you are wrong and are just a general complainer!!! because we are going to be surely disappointed if you are not. You can't exactly blame the Coronas Play for the windy weather, surely you had the opportunity to check this out before you made your holiday choice. I have stopped at Thomson Gold hotels before and I have found them all to be excellent value for money.

    My friend and myself both loved the Hotel Coronas Playas it was friendly, clean and inviting. The staff from the cleaners to the management were helpful in every resepect, the food is brilliant and the whole experience of the Coronas Playas was lovely. Costa Teguise was quiet and it was "SAFE" to walk around at night no drunken yobbos/lager louts and it caters for all age groups. I was 46 on my first trip and my friend was 60 we would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a nice relaxing holiday. We are going back to The Coronas Playas in 3 weeks April 2006 for an 11 night stay and we can't wait.
