I stayed in the Green Golf bungalows (aka. Cordial Green Golf apartments) in the first week of October and it was the nicest place that I have ever stayed in.I travel to Gran Canaria 3 or 4 times a year,and I have been in all types of accomodation,good and bad,but this was the best. Very clean,plenty of space by the poolside.It has a well stocked supermarket on the complex.Friendly and efficent staff. The apartment was well maintained.The sofa was very comfortable, as a sofa or as a bed should you need it.The beds were very comfortable.Plenty of towels provided for the bathroom. Kitchen had the usual utensils,2 ring cooker,whistle kettle,fridge etc.The air conditioning was provided by a multi-speed ceiling fan in the downstairs and in the upstairs bedroom which was more than adequate should you need to use it.There was a large security safe(for rent) in the wardrobe with plenty of space for your money,laptop etc. Television was rented with the usual 2 english language news channels being the choice,including other foreign language channels. Night time there was no noise or disturbance of any kind. Taxis are frequent should you wish to go to playa del ingles around 3 euros or so.It is a long way to the beach but bus shuttle services are provided at no extra cost. As I was self catering and on a budget I didn't eat in the complex restaurant so I cant comment on it. Nearby is the Faro2 shopping centre with the usual selection of shops and restaurants.There are 2 supermarkets in the centre which are very expensive if you are on a budget.There are many Spar supermarkets in the general area which offer much better value.For meals I found Piz Paz the best restaurant in Faro2 for eating.Good choice of menu with huge servings and good value for money..I will certainly go back to Green Golf again

just got back from the green golf apt and feeling really sad, we wish we were back there, i went with my boyfriend and had a fab time, apt's are very nice and maid comes 5 times a week, if ur lucky she even does ur washing up..lol There is a ceiling fan downstarts and upstairs which really makes a difference, we found the number 1 was the fasted speed and not 3 as we 1st thought. The beach is a five min taxi and only 3 euro,s.For night time there is a bar in faro 2 called The Banana bar and its fantastic, the bar staff Paco, Sergio and Evean are soooooo funny and make u so welcome.... we will defo be coming back Cheryl and Shawn

I have stayed at these bungalows a few times and on every occasion i have enjoyed my stay. The reception staff are friendly and speak excellent English. The reception is however reached by steps which if you are disabled would give problems. The bungalows are a good size and cleaned to a high standard. They are comfortable and are ideal for long stays. The patio areas are private and relaxing. The pools and sun bathing areas are excellent and not over crowded. The Faro 2 shopping/restraurant area is a 10 mins walk away, Maspalomas sand dunes is around 20 to 25 mins walk along a traffic free path. Taxis are cheap and plentiful. Great place to stay.

After landing at 4am in the morning, and having to wait 1 and a half hours for our luggage, we got on the coach and by 6:30 am we were finally at the hotel. As it was still dark, we did not see much of the hotel to begin with. So we checked in and got some shut eye as we were stupidly tired! We woke up and were plesantly surprised by the apartments. Finally awake, we could properly look at it. The apartments were fantastic. Every apartment was duplex style, all had basic SC equiptment and a tv. They also had an inbuilt radio, it did only play a spanish radio station, but always good to go local! The complex was medium sized. And lovely decor both inside and out. The entrance area was a terrace and a small balcony on the upstairs big enough to dry clothes. But with 2 large pools and plenty of sunloungers. This was perfect as we did not spend alot of time in the actual apartments. We were on half board, but found it easier for my self and my partner to eat out as we like to explore the area and the island. The food was basic, continental and cooked. So if we did stay a few times, then it is good to eat there. But as we had a car, we went venturing. Overall the hotel/apartments were fabulous! Very clean and great service. The complex was secure as we had a key card to get through gates, so it felt safe. Maspalomas is a fabulous resort. The beach was about a 30 min walk, which i know for some could be a problem, but dont let that put you off. its a pleasent walk to the beach and a great way to get a tan and lose weight on the way. Supermarket is onsite and tghere are a few close by. Shopping centre is about a 15 min walk. Well worth a walk on the sand dunes and if you are up for it, a walk on them to Playa del ingles. But this can take up a full day so be weary! If you dont like walking or doing something on a hol, DONT DO IT. I burnt my feet on the sandunes and it was painful. But, was still enjoyable as you dont realise until you get back. its quick into Playa, taxi is roughly 3 euro if you dont want to walk. Walking is not far, but up a hill. best advise, get a car, and go shopping in Las palmas, there are plenty of fantastic shops and las palmas has plenty to offer. it has a huge beach where the locals go to unwind. Have a trip upto Rock Nueblos (i think) it is a drive but well worth it. if you are weary with driving, go from the north as the south (GC600) is very scary and windy, we started on this route, but my phone battery died and did not fancy being stuck there. plus, buses go down there, so on a tight spot, can get a bit scary.

We had stayed at Cordial green Golf for the first time & with "our teenage grandaughter", for 2 week's ( end of May/ 1st week of June), last year 2007, & loved every aspect of our holiday, that we returned again this year, hubby & myself for 2 week's, ( end of May/ 1st week June).The standard of cleanliness in our 'Duplex', patio, pool, & surrounding area is first class !!!. At the bar & food area, again, first class, & service really good,friendly & helpful !!!.At the reception area, there is 24 hour assistance, & friendly, very helpful staff, at all & any time of day/night.The "Ladies", who bring clean towel's etc are so discreet, '"they are a credit", to the complex !!!!. Although there is a frre shuttle bus, we enjoy the walk to the beach, but if going further we've used the local bus, to get to to Puerto Rico, from there, we used the water taxi's ( again) & went to Mogen ( little Venice), it's a wonderful area & so pretty, then 'caught the water taxi & bus back to Maspalomas & " our home for 2 week's !!).We prefered to use local transport ( it's brilliant, regular & reliable) for the whole of gran Canaria & we can certainly recommend anyone to use it & use a taxi ( good price's & helpful again !!), in the evening's etc. I can honestly say, that where ever we have eaten, we have not been disappointed, be it at the complex, Faro 2 centre, or beach/ different area's of the Island. We made our own meal's & ate at 'our' patio area many times, when we've had a lazy day 'by the pool',& plenty of 'sun' lounger's, to relax & 'read', or after swimming,(bliss), & a shop only min's away on the complex. We can & have recommended Cordial Green Golf with complete confidence, there has been a good mix of all age's, whilst we have been there, so again- no age barrier at all, the pool's are a good size, & a smaller one for babies & toddler's, with step's leading into the shallow area. We were fortunate enough & really pleased, to see some guest's who had stayed at the same time as ourselves last year ( 2007), it was a delight to see familiar face's, it's also a testimony in itself, in my opinion !!. Indeed, yesterday ( Thur's 21st. Aug.), we have 'booked' for a further 11 night's this year, 25th..Sept.-6th.Oct 2008. The overall price's are so reasonable & competative & such good quality in return, mean's an extra 'break', in a "home from home" duplex, at a lovely complex, on a beautiful Island - Gran Canaria, I would happily 'live' there, in a Duplex, at Cordial Green Golf !!!. My husband Alan & myself, cannot fault anything, from arrival to leaving ( paying a little extra to keep our accom.), when departing late pm !!!. Many, many thank's to all, who make "our holiday" , a real worry free holiday, & we are now looking forward to Sept, 25th., only 5 week's to wait !. Jan & Alan, Cheshire, UK.

We had a fantastic time in Maspalomas, partly due to the great accommodation at the Cordial Green Bungalows. The little two-floor bungalows are wonderful - very modern and complete with everything you need. (Having to pay for the TV with only a few english channels is a pain, but who needs a TV when you're on holiday!) We opted for Self-catering (and so can't really comment on the food at the Hotel) although from what we saw, it looked pretty good! We chose to eat out in Maspalomas and nearby Playa de Ingles. The bungalow has a fridge, sink, kettle, toaster and 2 electric hob rings (as well as full compliment of pots, pans, plates, glasses etc....) and a mini-supermarket on site for the essentials. I would advise taking the short walk to the FARO2 shopping centre (5-10min walk) to grab your shopping as it is a little cheaper! The pools are beautiful. Both of them! Didn't have a huge problem with sun loungers, but it was always good to be up before 10am when the pool-side started to fill up! As for the area, the centre (and beach) of Maspalomas is a 3 EURO taxi ride away - bargain! Head for the Grand Italia Restaurant on the front in the new shopping development. Simply amazing service and fantastic food - especially the inhouse made pasta.

We had a fantastic week here in March and we would highly recommend it. The bungalow was small but perfectly compact and had everything you would need. The place was beautifully clean and tidy, the pools were really clean and it was such a pretty place, it is as it looks in the brochure. Great for golf next door, the driving range is good, although the course was a little bit dry and the greens were sandy but we are used to the lush greens in the UK! We were self-catered, the supermarket was an easy walk away and there were plenty of places to eat in the evening. We walked to the beach most days (to try and burn off the food!) but there was a shuttle bus, which was regular and free! It is also to fun to walk over the dunes but really hard work! You will have a great holiday.

Just back from a week in Maspalomas. weather georgus. Green golf bunalows were fab. Very clean, tidy, quiet and central enough.I didnt go full board but I would do it either. Food is ok but near by restraunts are lovely and cheap. There are daily free buses to the beach and Playa del Ingles but a taxi will only cost you about 3.50 euro. It only takes about 7 mins. Near the bungalows you can play all sports at a good price (tennis, golf, etc..) A lovely chinese rest called Bamboo is only 5 min walk away. For kids (and adults like me) just 20 min walk will bring you to a fun arcade with good indoor and outdoor ammusements. It opens from 6 pm to 12 midnight. The irish and british centres are good but you will always have people pulling you into bars and its very young. Go to the main shopping centre in Playa del Ingles. Great shops fro the daytime, good cheap food in the evening and hilarous drag shows in the eveings. Highly recommend it. over all a great holiday and depressed to be back. But i am going back there again. I have been on a lot of package holidays and this is by far the best that i have been on.

I absolutely loved this place! The apartments were clean and comfortable, the cleaning staff were very friendly and the pool was gorgeous. We stayed for a week from 9 to 16 June and wished we could have stayed longer. If you want to play golf, this an excellent location as the clubhouse for the Campo Del Golf is a three minute walk. We didn't have to book a tee time, just showed up when we wanted to play, and received a 15% discount because we stayed at the Green Golf. On the Wednesday night they had a barbecue in the hotel, which wasn't bad. There was plenty of meat though not a lot in the way of side dishes, apart from salad, or things to put on the jacket potatoes, but we still enjoyed our meal. There are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance, and even more in central Maspalomas, which is quite an upmarket place. There were a lot of families with small children, so I wouldn't say it was the best place to stay if you want a romantic getaway, but otherwise it was fantastic. I'm hoping to go again next June!

We stayed her for 14 nights and were blown over by the clean and nicely appointed duplex accomodation.Cannot understand how anybody can give this complex a bad review,This room were clean and towels changed regular.Pool area attractive and never too busy.Only five minutes walk to faro 2 Shopping centre.try the 'Duddeldorf'' resturaunt only second tier,massive portions and good service,friendly owner.Only ten minutes to beach at Maspalomas and ten minutes by taxi in Playa del Ingles for more hectic nightlife.Sign of a good holiday is when your sad to come home and we were sorry leave this place.Mail us for more info

I stayed at the Cordial Geen Golf Bungalows 19/5/08 to 2/6/08. This is a great place to stay, very clean, the public areas are cleaned and developed just about every day. There are two very large pools, one about 50 yards long the other about 100 yards long. There is the Faro 2 shopping centre about 5 mins walk away plenty of restuarants there. However I would recommend heading round past the golf course, visit the "Canal Grande" (Italian) or the Bamboo Garden (Chinese). Both excellent. For traditional Canarian food try Rustico, oppositr the golf course, I didn't go there but it did look very good indeed. Or if you head further down toward the sea front area of Meloneras there are loads of great bars restaurants and boutiques as well as some great hotels. Try the Costa Cobana for a great cocktail! For the first time ever I will go back to Maspalomas soon, don't normally want to go back somewhere straight away

I can highly recommend the Green Golf as well as the resort of Maspalomas for a fantastic holiday. We (myself and girlfriend) wanted to get away in March for some early sun and booked this direct with Thomson as a weeks package via their website. Hotel ------- We found the apartments to be very clean and the grounds, pools etc were lovely. It was a really relaxing place that was quiet even though there quite alot of people staying. The only bad point I can think of is that the walls between apartments were quite thin so if you were next to anybody loud then I think this would disturb you. As the clientele are mainly couples or families then I wouldn't let this put you off as it isn't a raucous place anyway! Location ------------ The hotel location was great as it is not in the centre of Maspalomas but is still near enough to walk to over 20 nearby restaurants. You can walk down to the beach from the hotel which only takes about 20 minutes. Taxi's are plentiful and cheap though we had hired a car so always walked or drove around. The beach front as Maspalomas is excellent with a nature reserve (full of fish, gecko's etc) as well as a host of nice restaurants and designer boutique shops. Another good place to go for a large range of cheaper restaurants is the Faro2 centre which is a 5 minute walk from the apartments. Staff ------ The hotel staff were excellent and couldn't do enough to help us. We booked a couple of excursions with them and unfortunately the people running one of them made a mistake with days so didn't pick us up from the hotel. The reception staff got straight on the phone and re-arranged it for the next day and also managed to negotiate us a different excursion for FREE for that day too! The maids came every day and did a good job of cleaning the apartment. They never tried to clean when we were in so we never actually saw them though which was nice (no offence maids!). Maspalomas ------------------ This was our first trip to Gran Canaria and we were really impressed. We were initially worried when we drove from the airport down to Maspalomas as the view from the motorway is quite industrial and not very nice. As soon as we got to the hotel and took a drive down to Maspalomas our worries were gone though. We had hired a car for the full week and saw most places on the island but we didn't see any location we'd have rather been staying at. We were very relieved we'd chosen Maspalomas when we vistsed Puerto Rico which is so overdeveloped it is ridiculous and front was all "Irish" bars and full English breakfasts - not what we'd travelled to Gran Canaria for! Things To See -------------------- For us the highlights of the holiday were some of the excursions we did. The submarine trip at Puerto De Mogan is a great experience. The camel safari we did up in the mountains was great. The market on Sunday mornings at Teror is worth a visit though get there before lunchtime to get parked. And probably the most fun thing we did was an off road buggy trek - this is where a guide takes a group of you in off road buggies for a few hours drive around the area combining on and off road tracks - great fun! All in all we had a fantastic holiday :) Hope this helps Richard

I stayed at Cordial Green 19th-26th April. We booked over the net on Travel Republic and picked it from various others. As you are normally greeted we expected a less than amazing site, as the pictures were so good we thought they ahd been computer generated. However THEY WEREN'T!! This pleace is beautiful!! Colourful, expertley clean, nicely decorated, not pestered by maids, gorgeous gardens!!!

My boyfriend and I booked this as a cheap winter sun holiday and what a fantastic time we had!! Green Golf Bungalows are a little gem in Maspalomas and are perfect for families and couples alike! The bungalows themselves are clean and tidy with everything that you need.. There is a spacious living and kitchen area and an airy upstairs with a beautifully furnished bathroom! You also have a patio area and upstairs balcony so there is more than enough space and choices of chilling area! The public areas are also immaculate-the pools are lovely and there are plenty of sundbeds for everyone. Their are also safety gates by reception which you have a seperate key card for which stop non-residents wandering into the hotel-we thought this was great and we felt very safe! There is a little hotel supermarket which is very handy and had everything we needed. We tried the restaurant but found we enjoyed a great selection of restaurants and bars at fantastic prices down by the Maspalomas lighthouse-this area is amazing and definately worth a trip or two! From the bungalows it was only around 3/4 euros in a taxi but it is within walking distance and takes around 20 mins (we are slow walkers tho!) Also nearby is Faro2 which is a shopping centre and has crazy golf etc.. we used to go to the bakers there for breakfast and there is a great supermarket-this is a five min walk. Also worth a trip is Port Mogan-we went on a friday when we hired a car and there is a great market on which you can get anything and everything you could wish for! My wish list got me a some amazing handbags etc!! We had a fantastic holiday in Gran Canaria at the Green Golf Bungalows and we were sad to leave, so we are hoping to return in the near future and would recommend these apartments to any potential holiday makers thinking of going! Even the weather was perfect!!!

could not fault this hotel at all. staff at reception really helpful, reccommending places to eat etc. complex itself was gorgeous from the outside - painted really pretty colours with lots of greenery and flowers, lovely pool also. bungalows themselves fairly small but fine for 2 people sharing - living room/kitchen downstairs and bedroom/bathroom upstairs. if you're worried about the location -don't be! there is a free shuttle bus to the beach, but if you miss this a taxi only cost us €4 to get to faro de maspalomas. all in all a great place to stay, would definitely reccomend!

We are in our 60's and wanted sun / warmth / quiet / good restaurants. We were attracted to Cordial Green Golf and were not disappointed. Accommodation. "Cosy" , ie. only one of you could get to the wardrobe at once; one side of the bed was up against the wall. However, we weren't going to spend much time upstairs, so it wasn't a problem. 2 pools. Unheated one was a tad chilly in Feb. but OK when you got used to it. V. attractive pool, area and apartments. We only went for 4 nights, so didn't use bar restaurant.. Eating out. Tried Cho Juanillo in Faro 2 (10 mins walk.) as recommended by other reviewers. Not very impressed. Just your basic steak bar. However, if you like your dessert to come with a sparkler and leetle umbrella, then it could be just for you. Likewise, cannot recommend food at Golf Club. Courgette soup was wonderful, but main course (fish) not properly cooked, and cold. However, two wonderful restaurants only 5 mins walk from apartments, though. (Come out of Green Golf; turn left; past the Golf Club, and immediately on your right.) Amaiur is run by very nice Dutch Guy. Super food, imaginative menu. Tad pricey. Rustico next door - very small, will only seat 24, therefore book in advance. Wonderful. Nice German couple (he cooks, she serves). Fish soup with Pernod; saddle of lamb with Rosti and warm papaya (!) - yummy. Would have eaten there every night if we'd discovered it sooner. Very reasonable price. Golf. Course is long and a bit boring, but excellent greens. We set alarm for 7. 00 (still dark). Got there 7. 45 (only 5 mins walk) and teed off at 8. 00 (shorts and shirt sleeves). Only 3 and a half hour round. Finished by 11. 30 (temp. in low 80's). Had beer and ciabatta on terrace, and gloated over queue of late starters who would be having a 5 hour round in the heat of the day ! Good driving range, and practice facilities. Beach and Dunes. Worth walking through dunes to Masp. Turn left out of Green Golf. Walk past Golf Club along road. When road crosses right over dry river bed, turn left along gravel track, and across dunes to sea. Beware of naked Germans lurking in dunes ! When you get to sea, remember that the first land SSW is Antartica; SW is Brazil. This explains the size of the waves. Have a super time. Feel free to ask me anything. timvenner@aol.com

Spent quite a while deciding where to go, but really did make a good choice. My priorities were to find somewhere quiet, with the feeling of having our own space/privacy, greenery around us and a balcony/outdoor space to relax in the evenings. I didn't want screaming children, lots of nighttime noise, or nasty concrete apartments. Green Golf fitted the bill really well in the end. The area of Maspalomas is right beside Playa del Inglés - a very urban, busy, (tacky?!) resort - so glad we didn't stay there. Maspalomas has low density bungalow-style accommodation with the odd, very grand-looking hotel. Lots of vegetation around the place and it is close enough to the beach area that you can walk (30-40 mins from where we were). The Green Golf Apartments run around two long pools. I think where you are placed within the apartments really makes a difference. We were initially put on a north-facing stretch looking out towards a road - which wouldn't have been too bad, but I'd have been a bit sad if we'd stayed. Asked at reception to move and after 2 nights got a different spot. I would recommend requesting a particular location when you book. The bungalows are really well kitted out and are a nice size for 2 people. Many seem to have been refurbished recently so look quite smart. We cooked on 2 nights and I had no problems. There is a shop at the complex which has most of what you'll need - and fairly cheap too. The apartments and the complex generally is clean the point of someone having an obsessive compulsive disorder. Ridiculously clean. The only downside to that is that the teams of cleaners (with walkie-talkies!) and various machines can be a bit obtrusive. We ate at the complex once - Wednesday is BBQ night - and went out for dinner 3 times - each of which was great. There is a lovely restaurant called 'Rustico' (I think) run by a German family about 5 mins walk towards the beach. We went twice and I'd highly recommend it, especially the 'catch of the day' option and lobster sauce. Great service, good food and nice selection of wine. Downsides? Reception staff aren't great (seemed weary and grumpy!), but they did move us, so they get points for that. My gut is that the apartments are most suited to couples - or families with really young or older teenagers. Kids in the middle would probably be a bit bored and the ambiance of the whole place is pretty sedate. The pool was freezing when we first arrived - the heating got turned on half way through the trip (for the winter season), which made it more pleasant. So, I'd certainly recommend the place if the above is what you're looking for.

We have just returned from a 2 week holiday at the Green Golf Bungalows. We had a bungalow facing south and got the sun from 9.30 in the morning until 5.30ish. At first we were a little disappointed with the size of the bungalow which appeared to be a little on the small size but after a few days we got used to it and grew to love it. Hope the following helps Location…well situated for most places. Half hour to forty minutes walk to Faro 1 but taxis plentiful and only 3 Euros. Faro 2 5-10 min walk but not as up market. The Green Golf is SO peaceful especially around the unheated pool (to your right as you face reception) Accommodation ….The bungalows are very pretty have everything you need. Not luxurious inside and a little basic but we couldn’t complain. The electric 2 hob was fine and the whistling kettle boiled quite quickly. The beds however were VERY uncomfortable. They were cheap beds and need to be replaced as the springs could be felt with every turn. Many people mentioned this so please take note Cordial and change them soon before it drives people away. The bungalows were very clean with the maid coming in 5 days a week. Our maid Argueda was always smiling. The pools and all outside areas are kept extremely clean every day. One morning I woke at 4.30 and thought I could hear someone swimming in the pool. It was the pool guy cleaning it and he was still working on it at 11am ! The supermarket staff could have been more cheerful but lets face it they were in the basement and didn’t see the light of day so maybe they had something to be miserable about. Food …..We had lunch here twice and it was ok but nothing special. There is a restaurant to eat at night but we never did so cannot comment. However we heard mixed reviews of meals there. The bar was very smokey whenever we passed through and we decided not to spend an evening there because it would have been uncomfortable. Entertainment…..We never stopped to see a show mainly because we went out each evening to eat, but more importantly because a parrot show/guy with snakes/fashion show/bingo and karaoke was not the sort of entertainment we were looking for. Reception staff were efficient and seemed to do their job well but were not very warm or over friendly. The Resort… Faro 1 at Melonares is a great place for eating out. We tried out lots of places and decided the Grand Italia was by far the best…heads and shoulders above the rest. The waiters there are very attentive and the food and service is very good. To the left of the lighthouse is a walkway towards the beach with lots of eating places at night. Sorrento is good for entertainment….2 guys singing lovely Spanish songs. If you can, try and take in the show at the casino. Absolutely fabulous 2hr show 35 euros, or show and meal 47.50 euros. . Would we go back to the Green Golf ?…like a shot but only if we knew that they had bought new beds. Im quite willing to answer any questions ...feel free.

This is the 7th time we have stayed at the Green Golf Bungalows. Now looks even better after the refurbishment. It was good to see the same staff again, we were made to feel really welcome. Room was cleaned 5 days out of seven and bed linen changed twice a week.. Pool areas were of an excellent standard. Bar/Restaurant was also very good. This is a really wonderful place to relax and unwind. Needless to say we have already booked for next year. Jane & Peter Epsom, Surrey.

This was my 2nd visit to the Green Golf apartments. When booking requested same apartment and on arriving got the apartment we wanted. The apartments were much busier than when we visited at easter time but still able to get sunbeds no problem as there was always plenty available. Once again were happy here and had no problems at all. Would recommend them to family & friends. Pool area very nice & the gardens at the courtyard area (2nd pool) had a very pleasant outlook when sitting at your terrace. We were here on a self catering basis and had quite a lot of our meals at Meloneras. We would walk down which took about 30 to 45 mins to get to the restaurant area of Meloneras, plenty shops here to browse around as well. Hope to be back sometime to the Green Golf apartments in the future.

We have just returned from a one week stay in these lovely apartments in Maspalomas. The rooms have recently been furnished and are very modern. The rooms were cleaned 5 days out of 7 with clean towels every time and bed linen changed once. The pool area and walk ways were cleaned every day with an army of staff. The site has two very large swimming pools with more than enough sun beds. We stayed self catering and did not eat in the hotel and used the site supermarket for essentials. Faro II shopping centre was only 10-15 mins walk away for eating places and supermarkets. The taxi into Playa del Ingles was only 3 euros 50 cents. It is a lovely place to stay and we would return at anytime.

Well, What to say.........I'm quite fussy so this year I Iet my partner decide where we would go on holiday and she picked this place!!! Disappointing? Read on. This is , honestly, the best holiday I have ever had. I wanted hot, I got it. I wanted clean, I got it. I wanted privacy, I got it ( that's on the Golf course facing bungalows). Other reviews say the night time entertainment wasn't that great....True, in one way, but sometimes, and this was definately the case, you have to be in the mood. If you are and want to have a good time, then this can be a good night out right on your doorstep. TAKE PART. The staff are so helpful. When we arrived there was no plug for the bathroom sink. We asked and that same evening we had one! The supermarket on location has all you need, extra's, including bars, restaurants, shops etc. are 5 minutes walk away at the superb Faro 2 shopping centre. We even got one of the local cats, not included in package, stay with us!!! She was in no way pestering, she came and went when she pleased. Please feed her, she sleeps outside Bungalow 32, she is all black and she has one bitten off ear tip. Check this review, we took loads of piccies. We'll send them if requested! PS. For a most romantic evening, go to the Viewpoint, half way to PDI, 15 minutes walk away. Get there one hour before sunset and take a camera. The dunes and the sunset over the hills are unbelieveable. Piccies if you want!!! PPS. In Faro 2 they show all the footy from Sky & Setanta in different bars so relax lads, you won't miss out. Jim & Claudia

I have recently stayed at the Green Golf Bungalows in Maspolamas and loved every minute of it! The staff were very nice and friendly, rooms were cleaned daily with sheets and towels changed a number of times and the grounds were beautifully maintained! The pools - of which there are 2 unusually shaped ones and a small kiddies paddling pool, were very clean and great for a swim or a dip when it got too hot in the sun. The apartments themselves were very modern, clean and had everything you could need for a self catering holiday - even a toaster! The on site shop also has everything you could need and the restaurant offered some decent pool side snacks - toasties, burgers, hot dogs, etc - although we ate out each evening so don't know what it was like at night. Nearby Meloneras has some great shops, restaurants and the beach which is definately worth a visit and Faro 2 has some nice shops and restaurants too. Don't listen to any bad reviews I can't fault these apartments, the facilities or the staff.

we had a great time at these lovely clean apartments. they are on the small side if you were going to do much cooking in doors. we had half board which was ok. they had a barbecue one night and other themed evenings. entertainment was very low key. staff in the restuarant and bar areas were excellent and friendly. the reception staff were very off-hand and not at all helpful. overall a lovely relaxing holiday.

These apartments are bsically equipped but very clean nd airy, pools are lovely and the restaurant and bar are very clean, plenty of choice on the menu and the food is delicious and cooked to perfection.We stayed for a week but didn't want to leave. Lying in the sun at the beginning of december was just heavenly!! Would certainly go back over and over. Highly recommended.

Myself, husband Alan & grangaughter Emily have recently returned from a 2 week holiday ( 28th May 07 --11th June 07 ).We had a really lovely holiday at the above.Our Duplex, which is the type of accom. that we prefer was spotless, all new & modern furnishings downstairs & more than ample space for Emily to sleep on the bed/settee.Upstairs again spotless, lots of wardrobe space & shelving & mirrors etc, & the same in the bathroom which was really spacious & lots of good fluffy towels supplied & changed regularly, same with bedding & cleaning.We had requested a pool view & were lucky enough to be given one !!!.The balcony was spacious, as was the patio.The pool was wonderful & well maintained.All of the staff were helpful & the ladies who cleaned were especially good & friendly !!!.. We can only give praise about our entire experience of staying there & will most certainly book this same accom. again, we had some lovely neighbours & all was first class !!!. We stayed at 146 & had a night out with neighbours Meg.John & their son Guy,if you do read this my email was returned because of wrong address, please email us ?. To sum up, a wonderful holiday in excellent accom & will most certainly stay there again & can highly reccom. to anyone who's thinking of where to stay in Maspalomas !!!. Jan,Alan & Emily.

Hi everyone my name is Maria and i have stayed in the Green Golf 6 times now and am due to go back on Aug, 18th, 07 and i cant wait. The pools are beautiful and huge the bungalows are great and its close to everywhere like Playa del Ingles, Faro 1 and Faro 2 and the Melanaros. Its great try it u wont be dissapointed. Ask for a bungalow by the pool.

I wanted somewhere quiet and peaceful and that is exactly what Our apartment overlooked the golf course and had fantastic views. The apartment was clean and well equipped, although a bit on the small side. The gardens, pool and outside areas were well kept. Staff were friendly and helpful. Less than 10 minute walk to local shopping centre and 20 minute walk to beach. I had a fantastic time and will go there again.

We (a couple around 50 years old!) have stayed at the Green Golf bungalows twice and have found the accomodation and service superb, by far the best self catering facility we have stayed and the only one to return to. Our remit is to be totally independent and not bothered by holiday reps. The apartments are a little on the small side, but very adequate for two adults and are sericed to a very high standard including regular change of towels, twice weekly change of bed linen and 5 days a week maid service. Our maid, at our last stay was wonderfully attentive to a high standard of cleanliness and though she spoke little English, she allowed us to try out our limited Spanish! All the expected items in the apartment include fridge, two ring hob, coffee maker, toaster and good selection of crockery etc. The surroudings of the complex are kept very clean and the two pools (1 heated and 1 unheated) are cleaned daily. The complex is set around the golf course which is idyllic and quiet, we had the choice of walking into Playa del Ingles or to the sand dunes at Maspalomas and on to Meloneras. Cannot recommend this facility highly enough.

Was really nervous about booking when i read some of the reviews. Went ahead and booked anyway. Very surprised at high standards of apartments. Was nothing to worry about. Had no issues and found the staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms were cleaned everyday and were spotless. There were no bugs or cockroaches as some people had suggested. Beautiful gardens and totally well maintained. I am def booking to go back next month for another week or so! If anyone has any questions please feel free to contact me.

Just got back from a week at Green golf apartments.Thoroughly enjoyable with a mixed group of nationalities and all friendly.Clean,spacious apartments.No fault with these apartments.Staff were friendly & helpful.No cash taken on site as stated by other recent visitors so watch your money.We paid up every couple of days. Took a trip by jeep with "Freebird" on a whole day trip to Mount Tiede.Great day out & great guys. Will go back next year to do Masca walk.Through the gorge 8.5 k to have lunch on beach & then taken back by boat to Los Gigantes. Timeshare not too bad but when we saw them my wife & I split up.They never approach single people! Food was good & inexpensive.Got bitten 5 times by mozzies so take protection ,I didnt because I didnt think they were about this early! Only regret,only found Tony Romas restaurant on last morning.Finest ribs in world.Will be back.

Two fab pools with plenty of sunbeds and NO TOWELS hogging them. Last time there was march 06, and their sister complex SANDY GOLF Sept 06. Will definatelyn be going back.

Some bungalows have 2 bedrooms, I have just stayed in one. Great place I would definitely go back there.

Just visited the green golf apartments for christmas and what a fab time we had. The apartments and site were lovely and very clean. Had maid service everyday. Staff very friendly. Only seen 1 cockroach on the site and that as dead. The apartments were disinfected everyday. The pool was very nice and well maintained, with pleny of flowers and plants around. Restaurant was nice, pool bar was good, food was very cheap. Overall we had a great holiday and are booking to go back again for the new year.

Me, my partner and our 7 year old daughter stayed at the Green Golf bungalows the last week in september the first in october and had a fantastic time, the rooms are cleaned everyday with fresh towels given, the staff where helpful. They are great great with the kids, and friendly. The weather has been fantastic, and we enjoyed the pools which are cleaned every morning. I can't praise this place enough, it's a great place in the quieter side of town with a taxi (of which there are plenty) costing 3 euros including a tip into playa de ingles (about 2 pounds). Its a secure place to stay I felt safe as there are gates and you have a card to enter into the grounds. I would really recommend this place and I will be looking forward to my return trip one day in the future.

i stayed in the green golf apartments in jul/aug 2005 with 8 friends we had 3 apartments between us and loved it!!!! the pool or should i say pools as there are 2 were beautiful they were cleaned regularly, so we were all pleased with the standard of hygiene around the accomodation! the apartments were also pleasing, they were in a v. nice peaceful location, obviously we had the odd few cockroaches but how can they be fully avoided? i agree that the accomadation could be freshened up and modernised a little but were definately above satisfactory! i spent 2 weeks there and it was v. nice. the man in reception is lovely and although did not speak much english was very friendly and helpful. and the actual location of the resort was perfect in terms of quietness and being able to relax peacefully but it was only a cheap 5 minute taxi drive into the centre of playa de ingles which was ideal!!! i have no complaint about my holiday in maspalomas in fact it was my best holiday yet, i would definately return to green golf as my stay wa excellent thankyou!!! x

Just got back from Green Golf. The complex was excellent. Really clean, not a cockroach in sight!!! The apartments themselves were small but adequate for the amount of time spent there. Pool's were huge and pool area was spotless. Plenty of sunbeds. Bar staff were fantastic, always cheerful, helpful and efficient. Reception staff were helpful and courteous. Ideal for families and couples. The resort of Maspalomas is relatively quiet but it's only approx 3 euros in a taxi to all the nightlife of Playa Del Ingles. Faro 2 shopping centre is only 5 mins walk away and has many shops and restaraunts, bars there are open till 3 on most nites. Will definately book to go again next year, had a fantastic time, the staff and complex were brilliant!! 10 out of 10

Review possibly a bit late but nevertheless stayed at Green Golf at April of this year, it was superb, the apartment, the setting, the staff, it was faultless. We found it to be very clean and tidy, room service was on a daily basis, cleaned to a high standard, although facilities pretty basic, were we not meant to spend our time out on that glorious beach of Maspalomas ?. I would highly recomend Green Golf and look forwards to my next visit there.

My daughter and I stayed in Sandy golf bungalows , sister of Green golf. we had a brilliant time. so relaxing at apts and lively in Playa Del Ingles, just a short, inexpensive drive away. there was no music at the pool bar, it was all so laid back, everything a holiday should be. As my daughter is only 12 I was concerned about the security in the complex, I need not have worried, the main gate was locked at 12 midnight and could only be accessed by key.

visited green golf in May 2003 absolutely brilliant holiday clean, equiped, friendly staff and beautiful area pool and restaurant perfectly cited and maintained look forward to visiting again

the second time we have visited and it hasnt changed in 3 years, still a great place for a relaxing holiday, peaceful and play del ingles is only a short distance away if you fancy a more lively evening out. Very Clean, Staff very helpful, overall a good base to stay to get the best of everything.

Me and my other half stayed at the GREEN GOLF APTS in Gran Canaria. They are absolutely wonderful, the pools are gorgeous. I would reccommend goig self-catering because there are so many bars and restaurants in a big complex just over the road. There is a free bus which takes you to the beach which is every hour. Its so relaxed in the apts and lively in the evening. There are nightly shows at the apts if you are on all-inclusive but i dont think the food is too good. The Sand Dunes are lovely but dont walk to far down cos you may get a nice suprise of 100s of naked people on the nudist beach. Overall the best holiday i have had yet - fantastic.

Had a great week here with friends. Lovely apartments, well equiped if you are thinking of cooking. Nice staff, beautiful gardens - very well looked after, lovely swimming pools (bit chilly as heating gets switched off at the end of March). Only ate in the restaurant once and the food was good.Nearby is Faro 2 shopping centre with restaurants and bars - We had mexican, italian and chinese all of which were very good. Cocktail bars are lethal but good fun and the waiters keep you entertained.Went to a fantastic restaurant in Playa des Ingles called El Gaucho (I think!) steakhouse. The food was excellent and the staff really made our evening as they were utterly charming. Also live singing here which was great. Well worth a visit!Lovely week had by all!

Stayed here over Hallowean,found the property to be well kept the pool area clean and the apartments were lovely. Had no problems with noise at night and for such a large complex was an added bonus.We were self-catering,so didnt eat there but plenty of other clients were which would suggest that the food was up to standard. Try some of the restaurants at the sea-front at the LIGHTHOUSE jn Meleronas we enjoyed the Casa Lola restaurant the most The service and food were excellant.Would have no problem returning to these apartments,they are in a quiet area and if you want more excitement only a taxi ride from playa de ingles.It was mostly families and couples staying here and it was relaxing.

Stayed in the Green Golf for a week in October 2008 with my wife and 5 month old daughter. The apartments are actually little teraced duplexes and are very clean and comfortable. Ours faced onto the road and so had no view but most face onto the pool or the golf course. Its all on the flat so no carrying buggy upstairs. The pool is fab and the food of decent quality. We ate in the Faro 2 complex each night but playa del ingles or maspalomas beach area are walkable (30-45min) or are only 3euro in taxi. Overall a good place to stay if you are looking for a quiet week with meals out a few glasses of wine especially with very young children. Not a lager lout to be seen.

We arrived at the Cordial Green Golf at 10.30 pm but we should have been there earlier in the evening. This was due to a three hour delay because of a techical fault on our Air Europa flight. When we booked our holiday we requested an apartment away from the swimming pools and on checking in found that we had been allocated accommodation facing towards the outside of the complex. As it was dark when we arrived, It was not until the following morning that we found out that we were overlooking the golf course. From reading reviews of this complex we were expecting the accommodation to be of a high standard and we were not disappointed. Our apartment was spotless and during our week's stay the towels were changed every other day and the bed linen was changed once. Some reviewers have commented that the apartments are a bit compact. We have stayed in self catering accommodation with more floor space but we found this apartment to be perfectly adequate in this respect. The onsite supermarket has a limited stock but was handy for getting heavier items like water, although the supermarket at Faro II has is larger and a bit cheaper. We were not sure what to expect at Faro II. Turns out it is a circular two storey building. Felt a bit deserted at times as a number of the units are empty and Maspalomas did not seem that busy with tourists. Ate at Pizzeria PIz-Paz, Toro Piedra II, New Dali (was Ka Nicolas) and Cho Juanillo. Not that much to choose between them - they all have the same menus! Entertainment at night is very low key. On one evening the Cordial Green Golf's entertainment was a fashion show then bingo. Walked through to Playa del Ingles one day but was not impressed, a bit tacky really. The only negative point was our Direct Holiday's rep. At the Welcome Meeting she did not have much to say about the resort, was more interested in selling tickets for the "Reps Evening" or arranging for "your free day out at Anfi and on your return you will get a 45 euro discount voucher to use against the cost of an excursion". According to the Anfi website it is the "number one Vacation Membership company in Europe". Did not expect Direct Holidays to be promoting a timeshare complex. It is easy to see why some reviewers have been to this complex on a number of occasions. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday in the sun at a well maintained complex then the Cordial Green Golf will not disappoint.

Recently spent a week in the Cordial Green Golf Bungalows, and was impressed with the complex. The bungalows have living area on ground level and a bedroom and bathroom on 1st floor. Apparently they were completely renovated a couple of years ago, which is quiet evident. I found the place to be very clean and very well maintained, however the bungalows are a little on the small side and I would think you would be very stuck for space should you need to use the sofa bed in the living room. We had to move the beds each day to access the wardrobe otherwise whoever is sleeping by the window will have to climb over their partner to get out of bed, but it’s only a minor inconvenience. You are provided with very basic cooking utensils but do you really need them? And do not expect items such as hair dryer, or microwave. TV available to rent with very limited English channels, we did not bother with it. The complex has two huge swimming pools (one heated during winter months). I was impressed that the edges of the pools were scrubbed each morning. There were plenty of sun beds to go around. The on site shop has the essentials, but 10 min walk away Faro 2 Shopping Centre has two larger supermarkets. The bar is fairly basic, and I’m not sure what to make of the staff there, they were a little gruff. We did not spent much time there, because just down the road about 40 min walk or quick taxi ride (€3.00) brings you to Faro Maspalomas where there is an abundance of lovely restaurants and bars and great shopping. I would recommend you try the Bali restaurant across the road from the Casino. They have a 17 course feast for two that you should try, also to be recommended is Casa Lola restaurant.

We stayed at the "bungalows" mid-September this year. As noted before - they are actually small 2 storey "houses" with a small terrace, living area with kitchenette downstairs and a bedroom and bathroom above. The balcony outside the bedroom has a washing line for your smalls but no space for a chair! These are fine for a base though I wouldn't want to try to spend too much time inside as it does feel a little cramped! The beds (2 singles) take up most of the bedroom and you have to almost push them together to get into the wardrobe but the fan is a welcome addition on warm nights. The pool areas are really well kept with lovely gardens and extremely well cared for - a few cats around but as we are avid cat lovers that was no problem for us. Nowhere near the numbers you get in some places and obviously well cared for so you won't get hassled by them unless you keep offering them food. The beds at the pool are plentiful (no need to get up at stupid o'clock and get a towel down) though a little uncomfortable with no matresses and, if I was going to have a moan, I do prefer ones with adjustable backs so I can sit up and read or lay down and snooze.... The 30 minute walk to the beach is well lit and at least makes you feel like you are exercising off some of the great food on offer - Antonios fish restaurant on the beach (next to Paddy's Irish Bar) and Maximillians Italian by the lighthouse were 2 favourites. We were very disappointed by Faro 2 - it is quite shabby compared to 5 years ago when we were last there, a number of places have closed down - the locals told us that there is much less tourism in the area now and it is having a bad impact on the centre. The Mexican was AWFUL, the sizzling fajita was barely warm and the vegetable burrito clearly had a handful of 'English' frozen veg shoved in it and warmed through. The on site shop is more expensive for most things though we recommend you buy milk from there - 2 lots bought at Faro 2 were "off" and it was a hassle to trek back (I know its only 5 minutes but in the heat it is a pain!) and argue about.... For .05 cents more get it at the on site place!! The courtesy bus worked fine for us but we did only use it once to the beach and once to Playa D'Igles! All in all, it is clean, quiet, a relaxing location and good value for money. We booked through Travel Republic - everything worked perfectly including a Merc to transport us from the airport to our accomodation!

Stayed at the Green Golf in Sept. 2008. The "bungalows" which are actually two storeys are perfect with all the essential equipment for a self catering holiday. They were spotless and cleaned everyday. Travelling alone for a relaxing holiday I was worried about Green Golf being a rowdy resort but it is nice and peaceful. I had a golf course view and it was very quiet (I recommend the golf course view if you want peace during the day as the others all face onto the pool). The Faro2 shopping centre is only a 5-10 minute walk away, the supermarket here is slightly cheaper than the one in the resort. It is about a 15-20 minute walk down to the beach/lighthouse area (very nice walk past the nature reserve) where there are loads of shops and restaraunts. The resort puts on a free bus to the beach and the taxis were always less than 3 euros. A must to eat in is Grand Italia (at the lighthouse), it is a little dearer than all the others but it is well worth it.

Some of the best accomodation we have stayed at recently. The bungalows are actually two storey little houses. They are very modern and a bonus is the ceiling fans in the bedroom and lounge. They really help to keep you cool at night. There are two fantastic pools but no sun shades apart from one or two 'shelters'. 5 Minute walk to the Faro 2 Shopping Centre where all the restaurants are. Most of the food here was very good, especially Tex Mex in the centre. Plenty to choose from. There is also a childrens playground including trampolines, carousel etc.5 minute taxi ride to Playa Del Ingles and only costs 3 euros each way. Make sure you visit Aqualand water park which is again only a 10 minute taxi ride away. Another nice day out is Palmitos Park which is a 20 minute drive away. We would definitely stay here again.

Good place to stay, bungalows (2 storey?) are compact but very nice with enough facilities for self catering, and had a nice patio area with table and chairs. Bedroom was large enough and the third bed (sofa) was suprisingly comfortable. Bedroom balcony only really big enough to hang towels and washing, not big enough to sit out. Bathroom had a shower only. The bungalows are very clean and well maintained with a maid service 5 times a week. The complex is not too large, swiming pools are great and never crowded, with just enough loungers to go round. On site supermarket is fine, and stocked with plenty of english products but is expensive. Reception were helpful and safe, tv etc were very easy to arrange. Note only 2 english speaking channels on tv - CNN and Eurosport (with simultanious english and german commentary) Nearby Faro 2 shopping and restaurants (it literally is 5 minutes walk just as the brochure said) is ideal for eating out in the evenings. We used Broncemar II (cheap but good quality) and Cho Juanillo (a bit pricier but very good food) the most. At both you get a shot of honey rum at the end of the meal which is very addictive. The supermarket at Faro 2 is much cheaper than the one on site. Don't bother with Holiday World - a very poor set of basic fairground rides Free bus service (opposite entrance to complex) takes about 5 minutes to ge to Maspalomas beach). Lovely beach, nice clean sand, with shops and restaurants to walk around. Free bus also goes to Playa del Ingles (very tacky in comparison to Maspalomas), but a great chinese buffet restaurant (all you can eat for about £6 each) in the shops above the beach. All in all a good break, if your thing is sitting round a pool or on the beach it is ideal.

We booked this as a last minute deal (very cheap) so wasn't expecting to much, but to our suprise our little bungalow was ideal my boyfriend and myself. Facing right on to the pool it was great to relax in the evening in ur own little garden!!! the pools are huge,clean and very relaxing. No problems getting sunbeds!!!! food in the faro centre is lovely(tex mex was fab), also down in melnores the resturantes are luvly and at nite is a lovely place to go.... all in all we had a great relaxing holiday and came home refreshed wud definatly return for another week or two.

Stayed at the Green Golf Apartments from the 26thJuly until the 10th August with my boyfriend and my family in two very nice bungalows, one overlooking the pool and one overlooking the golf course. The bungalows themselves are compact, clean and tidy but do not have enough equipment for the self catering option - very limited cutlery, plates and general cooking appliances - this pretty much forces you to go out to eat in restaurants. The bungalows are very pretty from the outside and the interior decor is very attractive. Pools are beautiful. Well kept, very clean and large. Lots of sunbeds for everyone (surprising for the school holidays!) and very relaxing and quiet during the day and in the evening. Bar by the pool was quite nice, average prices, not much entertainment going on - not that we minded because we went out in the evening. Mini Market on the complex didn't have much to choose from and was quite pricey compared to the other supermarkets we found. Location is good. 5 minute walk to Faro 2 which has a big supermarket, bars and nice restaurants which are quite reasonable. Really liked Cho Juanilo (steak house) which has lovely views of the mountains, brilliant food and great service. Also El Nublo does fab toasties and english breakfasts! 5 minutes in a taxi to Playa Del Ingles and Maspalomas beach/town (costs about 3 euros one way in a taxi - very cheap). Maspalomas beach is lovely, and the town there has some lovely bars and gorgeous shops! Playa Del Ingles is okay but the people that pester you to come into their bar/restaurant can get a bit agressive and it really put me off - some good night life though if you do want clubs and bars. Very expensive for us because of the euro being so strong at the moment - but if I found a good deal I would return to the Green Golf because they were a lovely, relaxing place to stay.

Just back from the Green Golf recently and it was a good holiday...perhaps not a great one though. We booked bungalows through Thomsons several months ago and requested south facing pool view or golf course view. We got north facing by the road...not quite what we asked for and on asking to move was told 4 days which turned to 9. By that time decided to just stay where we were. Apart from that we found the bungalows clean and spacious. First week maid service was great but second week not so...didn't come to us for a few days. Restaurant is adequate but much nicer to wander 5 mins to left of bungalows to Gran Canale or taxi to Faro 2/Meloneras area where plenty restaurants (not the cheapest though) and shops. One warning is bypass the chinese restaurant on promenade as service dreadful. Go to Casa Lola next door and enjoy a great meal and be spoiled. Beaches are fab, pool at bungalows are excellent, plenty of nightlife and taxis are cheap. Dolphin search trip also good and Sioux City is a great night. All in all a good time.

Beautiful place very relaxing , had a bumgalow by the pool , tasty decor , pool was so clean , but the reception staff were lousy, I mean really bad to the point of being ignorant, more interested in doing their nails than looking after the guests.I must underline reception staff not cleaning staff or anyone else.

Very clean, gorgous little kitchen and lounge and bedroom and bathroom upstairs, great shower. very clean, not smelly. Compact but not a problem. Lovely pool very clean. Friendly guests, staff average, cleaning ladies very nice. Very safe, good location, in the middle of everthing, Las Palmas and walk along the sea, lovley restauants. We paid about £330 for a week, myself and my best friend for a relaxing week in the sun. Wasn't too keen on the acual country, not much charm or culture, in my opinion but the accomodation is faultless and we had a really nice week.

Good points : Overall very pleasent holiday. Rooms very tidy with maid clean 5 times a week. The pool was beautifully maintained and the surrounding were very pleasent too. Reception staff were to hand 24hours a day. The rep was there 6 days out of 7 so good. The complex restaurant was sufficient and would meet basic needs. There was 2 pool tables and 1 ping pong table which were popular. A lot of sunbeds. Felt safe and self catering accomodation was very good. Bad points : The only one big problem I found and what i found other people agreed was that many flights back to the UK are during the night or late evening. We had to be out of our rooms by 12 midday. There was no where to keep our suitcase during the day apart from reception where people could have just walked in and take it, so not safe. But the main problem was the coach to pick us up wasn't until 23:45 at night which meant we were out of our rooms for just under 12 hours. We had no where to sit but by the pool which left us very uncomftable in that heat. Stuck outside in that heat for that long with no access to proper accomodation was so awful during the heat of the day. When I asked if we could keep the room until the coach left the reception staff had a very bad attitude of "it's not our problem you have to deal with it." So we went to our rep where she just said there's nothing I can do but surely she should of been able to help us find shade from the sun. supermarkets where ridiculously over priced so be warned. Would consider going again but only if didn't have such long wait after having to check out but looking at british flights that travel back from the complex i doubt that would be possible.

I stayed at green golf bungalows in maspalomas with my wife and 5 year old child. i would highly recommend these apartments for a stay in gran canaria.The swimming pool is the best i have ever been in,It was cleaned every morning and so were apartments.There was very good entertainment for kids every night.I will definately be going back for another great holiday.

We have just returned from a week at the Green Golf Bungalows & wanted to write to tell everyone what a great time we had. As two late twenty year olds, it was our first holiday away together and we ended up booking the Green Golf as a last minute deal. We were not disappointed as it was so nice & relaxing that I wish we had booked two weeks. The bungalow themselves were lovely, clean & modern with a kitchenette & small living area downstairs and then upstairs was the bedroom & bathroom with a small balcony. Our bungalow was facing the road but this did not bother us as the road is very quiet and it was nice being away from the bustle of the pool area. We stayed self-catering and with a small supermarket at the complexes it adhered to all our needs. The gardens around the pool and complexes were bright & colourful and superbly maintained. There were always plenty of sun beds available around the pool so you never had the nightmare of having to wake up early just to reserve a bed. We did eat at the poolside bar once which was typical basic Spanish food. This was ok during the day for grabbing a snack but in the evening we wandered down the beachfront past the lighthouse where there was an arrangement of fine dine restaurants, shops and boutiques. The walk to the beach is about 30 minutes past the dunes and nature reserve and is completely flat. We really enjoyed walking but you can get the free bus from the complexes in the day if you fancy the beach & a taxi is no more that €3. I would thoroughly recommend the Green Golf Bungalows for all age ranges. Being a 30-minute walk away from Maspalomas and Playa Del Ingles you can choose to make the holiday as loud or quiet as you like. There are plenty of bars and clubs in Playa del Ingles if you fancy a night out and Maspalomas offers the lovely restaurants and shops if you wanted something quieter.

I'll keep this concise and to the point. Best Place to eat:- The Bamboo Garden. A short walk from the Green Golf complex this Chinese resturant is fantastic. For some reason its empty most of the time but dont let this put you off. The staff, decor and food are first class. Located next to the dry flood chanel on the way to mas palomas. Best thing to do:- The Super Cat. Booked via tour rep the boat trp was fantastic. A real chill day out. Downside:- If you go to playa, watch out for groups of African women offering to tell your fortune. Its legalised mugging and marred the whole day for us. Avoid at all costs. Hotel:- clean. Great pool (a bit cold). Food wasn't great. Located in well maintained gardens and very quiet.

My partner and I (in our 40's) visited the Bungalows for a weeks break. We had never visited Gran Canaria and it was a very pleasant experience. The accomodation was newly decorated, clean, well planned and spacious enough for 2 of us...any more would have left us feeling crowded. The bungalows are not actually bungalows but 1 storey townhouses. The only bathroom is within the bedroom so a 3rd guest would need to come through your bedroom to reach it. The bedroom has a small balcony overlooking your own little patio and garden. Some of the townhouses face north which means you wont get any sun on your patio garden. We were lucky, ours faced south and we were bathed in sun morning thru night. The walls of the townhouses are really thin and you can here most of the neighbours on both sides. We had an awful neighbour who had a hacking cough and it kept my parter awake a lot. Dont bother eating at the onsite restaurant, it's not good and the 12 euros for the buffet is really overpriced. The pool area is attractive and spacious. The resort of Maspalomas is a 30 min walk or you can taxi for 4euro's. Gran Canaria is a lovely island but beware if you are afraid of heights, some of the roads are hairy and scary so get someone else to drive and lie down on the back seat as I did so that you cant see!! We would definately return to the bungalows, having toured the island and seen some of the awful sky scraping hotels built into the sides of the mountains...just awful.

My husband and I went for a cheap week away and really liked green golf. Admittedly with the current strength of the euro, it didn't end up quite so cheap after a week of eating and drinking, but it was a thoroughly enjoyable holiday. The apartment was lovely - they have been refurbished to a high standard. Great bathroom, large twin/double bed, no air con but the ceiling fan was fine. The wardrobes were in a random place which meant getting in and out of them was a bit of a squash but hardly a problem. We were lucky to be poolside and south facing, so it was nice and convenient to sunbathe in our little "garden" on our own private loungers, and pop in and out as we pleased. The surroundings were lovely - all very well kept, really neat and clean. Reception staff were really friendly. The main pool was huge and there was plenty of room to bathe. Free bus to the beach was convenient and even though we had a car for the week I would recommend the bus as parking seemed to be a nightmare down there. I would definitely recommend aqualand - just up the road across the motorway (on several bus routes or 4 euros in a taxi). It was expensive (23 euros pp entry and more for beds/lockers) but you can get a wristband to allow you back for free at any time within 10 days - so we returned again the next day! Best waterpark I've been to - fantastic slides and great fun. On an evening Faro 2 (a short walk across some wasteland) was convenient for a small range of pubs and restaurants but you couldn't go there every night. We got a taxi (2/3 euros) to Yumbo centre in Playa del Ingles on a couple of nights for a chinese buffet (6 euros) and much cheaper drinks. We also took a trip down to Faro Centre (by the lighthouse) in the car one day to see if it was worth walking down there on a night - but it didn't seem too exciting at first glance so we never made the trip. I now wish we had as it turns out we didn't come across the main promenade of excellent bars and restaurants on the sea front! For a self catering apartment I wouldn't say the kitchen equipment was great (2 ring hob, fridge and coffee maker) but there were plenty of pots, pans and utensils. We tended to just make sandwiches for lunch and eat out most nights so it was fine for our needs. We stayed on a B&B basis but I would probably recommend SC - the breakfast wasn't anything to shout about (our only real gripe): uncooked bacon, boiled eggs, cold beans and a variety of breads, hams and cheese was about the size of it. And we had the BBQ one night - which was ok, but not worth the 12.50 they charged. On the whole, I would definitely recommend the place for a relaxing stay. Yeah, the location isn't great and there's little goes on on a night in the way of entertainment, but it is beautiful and there are so many cheap transport options.

My wife and I stayed at this establishment from 13th - 20th Mar 2008 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Although described as bungalows, the accomodation we stayed in was actually a 2 floor apartment, living room and kitchen downstairs and a bedroom upstairs. The accomodation was very clean on arrival and was kept that way by the maid service throughout the week. Maid service was 5 days out of 7 and towels were also changed on a regular basis. The hotel has two good sized swimming pools, the one nearest the Bar/Restaurant being heated. There are also plenty of free sunbeds. The pools were regularly maintained and the surrounding areas kept very clean. There are also shallower pools for children and toddlers. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful and the reception staff have a good command of English. They were only too happy to give advice on local buses etc, to Playa Del Ingles and Puerto Rico for example, although taxis are cheap and plentiful. The hotel also runs a free bus service to and from Maspalomas beach. We found the bar and restaurant prices very reasonable, service was good and the same could be said for the food. Prices in the Mini Market downstairs at the main entrance are also pretty reasonable, although choice is naturally limited. If you want more choice, try Netto at the Yumbo Centre in Playa del Ingles. We can thoroughly recommend the Dolphin Search boat trip which we booked via our Thomson Rep (Catherine), also a very helpful young lady. At a cost of 29 Euros each it was a great trip and we managed to see a few dolphins. Thomsons use the "Magic Vision" boat rather than "Spirit of the Sea" . We think that "Magic Vision" is better value as you get an extra half hour on board. All in all we had a great time at Green Golf and would recommend them to anyone. We shall certainly be returning, hopefully, in the not too distant future.

After reading the varying reviews on this hotel and destination, myself and my husband weren't sure what to expect - however upon arrival and throughout our stay we were pleasantly surprised. The bungalow was a good size , kitchen and sitting room downstairs and good size bathroom and bedroom upstairs. Very clean. Small balcony upstairs and terrace area downstairs - luckily we were south facing so could lounge about all day in the sun and retreat inside when we needed to. We ate at the hotel once - the bbq - wouldn't really recommend it for price, not much choice and quality wasn't great. Pools are lovely and there was always space around them. We saw no cockroaches or bugs. Lots of birds around though. The shower had a habit of going hot ocassionally without warning and the amount of times i bent down to pick up the shampoo and turned it off with my bum got a bit out of hand too !! Hotel staff weren't going to win any customer service awards, but we didn't have any real problems. Melanares was a 10 minute walk away and play de ingles about 20 mins. Faro shopping centre at Melanares had good restaurants - Grand Italio and Faro Grill- the chinese was good too. We like our food so were keen to find some good eateries. Also good was fountain de trevi - outside nr the bus terminal behind the Faro complex - and the golf complex / course just to the left of the cordial golf bungalows did some lovely food - and we watched how the other half lived for the afternoon too! All in all it was a nice break - hot weather - 25-30 degrees, bit windy, but not too bad. Would recommend this for couples wanting a quiet break - options to go to some busier bars in ingles and a bit more up market in melanares if you fancied. Really happy with our stay.

My girlfriend and i searched the web reading lots of reviews for the best place to stay - the best resort for us etc and after reading lots of nightmare reviews we eventually decided to go with bungalows cordial green golf. It was everything we could have hoped for - the review title says it all really. I would / have definitely recommend this place to our friends and family. There isn't a view from the rooms as its about a mile and half from the beach but the ambience, friendliness of staff and other guests (mostly 30+ and quite a lot of germans) make up for this. The grounds are beautiful and landscaped and the staff and management seem to take a great pride over the place. Its close enough to bars and shops and the sister hotel across the road does an excellent buffet for only 12 euros - bargain! Good days out can be had at mogan (beautiful and nice cafes / restaurants) la palmas for the day is excellent (lovely back streets and cafes and museums) get there by bus - only a couple of quid - in fact get everywhere by bus! and of course boat which is great also and can be caught everywhere it seems. Porto rico is ok for about 2 hours as its is just so bult up and a bit like a gold fish bowl. Maspalomas is excellent for a day out: great shops and cafes along the front and then the sand dunes and the nudist beach and from here you can walk around the sea front (very interesting) to playa ingles - a lovely walk!
