Flora Apartments - Puerto Del Carmen - Lanzarote

We stayed at the Flora Apts in Puerto del Carmen on Lanzarote for one week, end of July beginning of August 2009. Very nice friendly Staff while the food was average - edible but a bit samey.

The entertainment was mainly for kids but still quite fun. Drink was suprisingly good for an A/I and the main pool area was very good, although sunbeds were in short supply (early morning wake up call needed!). The bar shuts at 11pm but that was OK by us (just got a few extra at last orders). The only fault, & unfortunatly in 50 degree heat it’s a massive one, no Aircon! There’s no escape from the heat even in the shade or at night! My Girlfriend slept on the balcony to try & alleviate the heat of the apratment but I don’t think it worked. I’d recommend the place to anyone but in high season I wouldn’t return - it’s just sweltering.

One minor thing - if you don’t get towels changed after a couple of days, just ask, because they seem to only change them when you want them to. The Apts. were a bit of a walk downhill to the Old Town & quite a way from the beach & main strip, but taxis are everywhere & quite cheap.

All in all, Puerto del carmen a nice place to go for your holiday especially with kids. Ours is 13 & she made plenty of friends at the Flora apartments which is always a good thing.
