Babalu Apartments
Puerto Rico, Gran Canaria

Mr J Winning, Johnstone

We stayed in a Deluxe Apartment (could be doing with a refurbishment). Balcony excellent size and fully furnished. Pools excellent and spotless, cleaned daily. Pool bar/snack bar (under separate management), great selection of food and drink at reasonable prices and friendly staff. Reception staff Stella Robert and Thomas great and very helpful and informative.

Mrs J Chambers, Huddersfield

Just love it there, fabulous pools, sea view and nice big balcony.

Mrs J Cumming, Johnstone

Room clean, no air-conditioning or telephone in room. TV remote I paid for didn't have any English channels.

Miss R Thomas, Birmingham

Great pools, fantastic pool bar staff, pool area cleaned every morning. Great location and Europa centre just across the road for fantastic bars,restaurants and shops.

Miss C Trigg, Sheffield

These apartments are OK, the pool area is beautiful, one let down is the race first thing in a morning to get your sunbeds.

I actually booked a deluxe apartment, and was disappointed, there is no difference at all, only deluxe apartments have sunbeds on the balcony, and paid extra too for the deluxe.

Overall experience at Babalu, is 3*, the staff are friendly, apartment from the reception, very ignorant.

Mr I Raywood, Liverpool

Ms S Gofton, Hartlepool

Good basic apartment, nightmare sun lounger run each morning. I just stayed on balcony, sun bed hire for balcony €6 per week.

Mr G Jones , Wrexham

We had a really lovely time. The rooms were clean and although dated were still good. The beds though were like sleeping on concrete. Balcony was huge and had fantastic views. Could do with some kind of entertainment as there's nothing at all. The pools were great; good size and most of the time quite warm too. The reserving of loungers was awful. We would see loungers being reserved at 8.45 in the morning and no one using them until mid afternoon or even coming back and just taking the towels and not using the loungers. Overall though we would definitely recommend Babalu and would go back.

Mr M Webb, Blackwood

Rooms were spotless, well presented, basic kitchen but with so many restaurants and bars close by you didn't need it. 3 pools which were cleaned every morning, only bugbear as per normal was sun loungers. Saw 1 person put out 16 towels so didn't leave many for everyone else but apart from that it was an excellent holiday and yes I would recommend anyone coming here.

Mr J Smith, Stoke-on-trent

Lovely and clean apartments, towels changed 4 times in our two weeks. Beds changed twice. Area around pool very clean, pool bar staff friendly, food was really good and prices were good. Could have been made better with some evening entertainment. The 3 pools were lovely and great for non swimmers as you could walk in, however the white painted panel around the pool was extremely dangerous under foot, not only watching children slip on it but adults holding babies. People with us took falls even though they were being careful after seeing lots of other people falling. If the pool area was sorted and entertainment was on even a couple of nights a week these apartments would be 5 star.

Mr S Cartlidge, Stoke-on-trent

Nice apartment, good view of pool or the sea depending on which floor you were on. Could do with air conditioning, lovely pool, good pool bar, nice food, would of been nice to have a bit of evening entertainment maybe barbecue once a week.

Mrs A Ennis, Frizington

Apartments basic but spotlessly clean, in a great position near the Europa centre, would definitely return to these apartments.

Mr D Harrington, Mold

Miss J Lambrick, Hull

Nice and clean, spacious, everything you need.

Mr C Bardsley, Manchester

Mr N Crampton, Romford

Horrible beds, spring sticking out, uneven, within one minute the shower went cold due to the small electric boiler.
Staff friendly, though at the reception and the cleaning maid.

Mr F Nicoll, Penicuik

The overall complex is great, but our room would benefit from a bit of an update. Can't fault cleaning or pool. Bar was brilliant as usual.

Mrs J Maclachlan, Grantham

A bit tired and surrounding area shabby too. Only the one centre within walking distance. However, clean towels each day, two sun loungers on balcony, toaster, hairdryer. (no kettle!). Pools good, pool bar ok. No problems with noise or other guests.

Miss D Wright, Plymouth

Would have given a 5 star if there was air con. Possible to rent a fan but not so good as air con.

Mr K Riley, Liverpool

Really good holiday. Met some lovely people.
