We bought here in 1997 and have been back
(or sent friends or relatives) numerous times
since.
Accommmodation is 1st class, service is
generally good but sometimes a little slow
(this is Spain, afterall.
Facilities on site are excellent, but somewhat
limited - things tend to close early,
entertainment is limited and somewhat
restrained - this is not the place to go
to "party"- , but housekeeping is great and
you do get a great night's sleep (in verrry
comfortable beds). Locality is a bit quiet, but
good for families, maybe not so much the
elderly, or those with walking difficulties, as
the resort is located at the top of a fairly steep
hill. However, taxis into Maspalomas or the
much livelier Playa del Ingles are readily
available and very cheap.
My son, (age 11) maintains that this is his
favourite holiday destination (over Orlando -
Florida, Disneyland - Paris, Majorca, Costa del
Sol and Tenerife). The 2 large pools at this
resort are safe and child friendly (kids are
actually allowed to have fun, and I have never
had any complaints from other, childless,
adults) and on each occasion we have visited
he has managed to make friends with other
kids (not necessarily english speaking, so it's
quite educational too!).
We are going back to Palm Oasis in October
for the first time in 2 years, I'll update this
then and let you know if anything has
changed.
