Palmeras Garden

Beautiful place

Paying for airco and WiFi. That’s a ripoff!

Great location for peace and quiet but within comfortable walking distance of main areas if required Our bungalow was spotless and well equipped and the staff very friendly

Literally just got home today and writing this review. Not the best start as had to wait 2 and half hours to check in as room not ready till 3pm which wasn’t stated at time we booked but we soon got over that. Staff very friendly and apartment 22 lovely, spacious, clean and modern with best tv English channels we’ve ever had anywhere we have holidayed. Windows with built in mosquito nets which we have never had before anywhere were a godsend as could have all windows open at night without becoming mosquito appetisers. Apartments themselves are a good walk from main centre but a lovely walk along promenade. The grounds are clean and well maintained, don’t know if pool is acclimatised but didn’t have the icy aspect to it so suspect it was. Plenty of big bins for empty bottles dotted around grounds. Lovely big balcony with umbrella and private. Plenty of hot water (be careful as very very hot).. area is very quiet which was lovely and made for ten days of pure relaxation. I’m not a one to sit round pool so would have been nice to have sunbed on balcony but the chairs were more than sufficient and the floor with towel on. Overall a lovely holiday. Fully chilled out and back to reality with a big bump haha. Definitely return to palmeras garden

3rd time visiting palmeras garden and still as fantastic as ever very clean very friendly even the little hegh hog came to say hello keep up the great work palmeras garden we are back next year counting the days missing Sarah flip flops walking passed lol x

Palmeras Garden is paradise if you want a tranquil break. The staff are lovely and the apartment, pool and grounds are spotless. There is a pool bar serving drinks and snacks and there was always loungers and was often the only one on the pool as its term time. Bar Arena downstairs serves fresh cooked food at good prices and is a regular bar for tourists and locals with very friendly staff. (Bingo Thursdays and live music Saturdays are busy) The little shop sells all the basics - albeit at a slightly higher price for the convenience. Reception will call you a taxi to Playa Flamingo or Playa Blanca or there are a handful of restaurants within 5 minutes walk. I also had two reflexology treatments from the onsite massage therapist Leandra Verna and she was excellent.

We had the most amazing two week break at Palmeras Gardens. Please don’t be put off by negative reviews. The hotel was around a 30 minute walk into Playa Blanca central. We went along the seafront which made for a lovely walk. Alternatively A taxi costs €5 and the bus €1.40 per journey, and they run every 30 mins and stop on the main road just above the complex. We used this most days as it’s so quick and convenient. You are far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the centre but still plenty of things close by. Onsite bar and supermarket. Around 4/5 restaurants a 2 minute walk away. Around 15 minute to Flamingo Beach with more restaurants and supermarkets and the same the opposite way to Pechiguera again with more restaurants and supermarkets. We stayed in a superior bungalow and we couldn’t fault it. It was clean and spacious and had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Although other bungalows close by we never heard another person. No noise from the pool area either. You could even see the sea from the terrace. We were there for 2 weeks and the room was cleaned 12 out of the 14 days. We knew when we booked that it was extra for the air conditioning and safety key. I don’t understand the people who moaned about not knowing as it’s clearly stated on the website. The reception offers a premium pack which is the air conditioning, premium WiFi and safe. They do a package for 1/7/10/14/21/30 days. Well worth the money and a great saving. Deposit required but you get this back. Reception staff were so friendly and helpful, literally couldn’t do enough for you. A few times we asked for more toilet roll etc and it was delivered right away. Also happy to help you book excursions and offer local information. Pool area was clean and tidy and despite going in July/August we never had any issues getting a bed or umbrella. Reception offers mattress rental for beds but I don’t think it’s worth it. You can rent pool towels which we did for just a €10 deposit. If you want to change them during the holiday it’s €1 per towel. Pool bar opens from 11am. A good choice of drinks and snacks and ice creams and you can order from the full bar menu. Good value for money. Bar arena was just down the steps and we couldn’t fault it. Service was second to none and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food was really tasty and I’d highly recommend the fish and chips and pizza. If you are looking for a nice beach then flamingo beach is the best. Easy to access, a great place to swim and take little ones in the water as it’s a bay. A sandy beach. Plenty of places to park up for the day. Stuff was safe to be left when we went in the water as it’s family friendly. Even rented a paddle board one day which was fun and good value for money (€15 for an hour or €20 for 2) If you are looking for a quiet getaway then this is the place for it. We would highly recommend and we will definitely be back.

Our 6th stay at Palmeras Garden. Wonderful as ever, very friendly staff. Lovely clean bungalow. The pool area is great, NO reservation of sunbeds (although a few selfish people still did). Nice and quiet, not really for party people. Great food and drink from the pool bar and Bar Arena in the complex, good prices too. We will be back again soon.
