Gueldera Apartments

My wife and I travelled from Manchester to Lanzarote , Puerto del Carmen on Monday 21/10/2024 returning 31/10/2024 , 10 days, we had booked transfers through love holidays flying with TUI using Jumbo tours. The driver did not recognise the property name and his drop off point was at Aqua sol apartments, turned out a street above. He advised to go down a path past a play ground, by now it was 07.30 and dark. We looked up and down the road but could not find the name. A couple passing asked if we had a problem and we explained the problem, they were regulars to the area and said they were going for evening meal at the Plough pub round the next street and had also not heard of these apartments, we thanked them and went the opposite way. The guy came running back and said he had just spotted a small sign naming our accommodation. we followed him and thanked him. We tried to follow a Que card on the wall unfortunately my phone will not work internet or phone calls abroad. Again we were stuck, luckily we heard talking behind the gate , my wife knocked on the gate and a women answered and opened it Concheta , thankfully she was the on site relative of the owner and rang her for the check in of our details. Finally we were let in to apartment 6 , from there all excellent , apartments only 1 star , no pool etc but 2 balcony's lounge with cooker double bedroom bathroom and shower including washing machine and conditioner and powder, we fetched water for later, only to find later 2 bottles left for our arrival. After a problem start everything turned out excellent and we would use these again they are 5 minutes from the main front street and beaches and also very quietly positioned. Just be aware of the initial problem if on late flights. I have attached photoes including the road sign that the apartments are on , there is a name plate but its not big. This was my retirement celebration holiday booked at short notice and was well pleased.

Two friends stayed in this two bedroom apartment. It was excellent. Beds were so comfortable. The apartment was very clean and had all the facilities. We found it very comfortable and relaxing, a short distance from the sea. Everything was very accessible. We hired e-bikes for 2 days and found it very easy in the bike routes. Great time.

Like other reviewers we had trouble accessing our apartments, the instructions were sent whilst we were in transit , when we arrived we had no WiFi . No one was answering the contact number . Fortunately the housekeeper was working and let us in . During the three weeks we were there we encountered two other parties with the same problem , one group late in the evening , again no one answered the phone . Two days before we came home our key code failed to work and my husband had to scale a pretty high wall to get in . Again our calls were not answered until an hour later . The apartment was in a really good location handy for the strip and the beach 10 minutes from a Spar .The apartment was well stocked with essentials . However for the price paid we were disappointed , all the furnishings and patio furniture was very tired , marked torn pads , very uncomfortable sofa . The towels were plentiful and nice , the bedding was not very nice , the beds were small but comfortable . At the back of the apartment is a small children’s park which was not a problem except for two nights when teenagers met there and were noisy until 0200 am . However this apartment is in a residential area and kids have to do something . The weather was amazing and we had a great holiday but probably would not stay here again .
