| said: the castillo playa bungalows were clean and tidy.the rooms were probably in need of a revamp but pool and play ground were kept in excellant condition. staff were very helpful, our apt was between pool and play ground and was really safe to let my 5 year old play on climbing frame . turn right out of apts end of street turn left and beach is about 150metres, and dont be put off like we nearly were by some reports that its 1.5km from centre because it wasnt just a nice 5 minute walk from resturants and bars

Great location for bars and beach.
Will go again, but will book own flights etc as hotel rates very cheap if booked direct.

| said: Just got back from Fuerteventura and I am well happy.
The Hotel was clean, the rooms where fresh when we arrived and regular daily maid service was excellent. Pool was also cleaned as well, which was nice see.
The location was also good. The local restaurants and shops are about 5 minutes down the road and the beach also about the same distance. Close to the airport as well so transfer times are at a minimum around 10-15 Min's.
All staff were friendly, smiling and saying "hello" when possible. We never really needed anything but i'd imagine if we did all would be fine.
The resort itself offers no real entertainment, though the independent bar on site does offer Karaoke, music and Quizzes. This having been said its probably better for couples as opposed to families.
Only gripe which was a tiny one, is that most of the reclining loungers by the pool were broken. However this may have been changed.
Overall experience was though Excellent! Would definitely recommend it and would go again.

| said: Stayted at the Castillo Playa Bungalows for a week and had a brilliant time.
Got a last minute deal so certainly got value for money.
The bungalows are a good size and well equiped and very clean. The friendly cleaners came every day.
The pool is clean and there are plenty of sun beds. The irish pool bar is a very welcoming place, the barmaid will be more than happy to fill you in on the resort giving you advice on where are the best places to go.
As it was June when we went I dont think it was lively as it would be in july/august, so the pool bar was quite quiet on an evening. However, they did still offer karaoke and quizzes.
It is only a 5 minute walk away from the bars and resturants, so not disturbed by any noise. The beach is also a 2 minute walk away so a very handy complex.
Would highly recommend it.

| said: The complex was very quiet at this time we have stayed there before when we booked with Thompsons but this time we did it direct and it was much better.
The rooms are basic but do the trick. Close to all venus, rooms where cleaned reguarly and cleaning staff very nice.
There was a microwave kettle and toaster in the rooms which was great.
The pool is very clean and we enjoyed it even if it is a bit cold. We had some great nights in the pool bar with the two Irish there they helped to make it a very friendly place to be they couldn't do enough for us even though they where busy with people who return there at the same time each year we will be back great place.

| said: Castillo Playa Apartments/Bungalows - Bungalow was dirty, self catering facilities inadaquate.
Beds broken/ matressess disgusting/ no pull out sofa bed as described. Z Bed and what I can only describe as a park bench with a piece of foam.
Location good - close to beach and shops
Hotel staff - I never saw any staff, only the man that runs the bar and keeps you awake with his Kareoke - he was the only one singing. He informed us on our fist day to make sure we lock our doors even when we are in as they have had loads of burgularies.
No enerntainment.
This accomodation was so bad we moved to another hotel, which may I add we had to pay for. No I would never stay in this accomodation again or ever trust a Thompson Holiday. rating

The apartments are an ideal base for a family holiday. The maid service and reception are very good and they have a superb pool and pool bar which does good breakfasts and daytime and evening snacks.
They are very close to the the beach and a short walk to the bars and restaurants.
