We stayed in a privately owned apartment overlooking the swimming pool. The apartment was very well equipped and was clean upon arrival and we even had a celing fan in the bedroom!

I understand the complex has gone through a facelift and it looks very nice - can definatley recomend and will contact owner again and go back.

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!!!! The rooms were nice but the rest oh my god how can people rate the food highly?!!!!

If you have a death wish maybe! Flies walking a long the dried up beef YUMMY! i'm sorry but we're not snobs but we do have standards! and this was no way a 4 star hotel! i feel as tho thomson's 4*half board on the south was extremely misleading as we had expected nice food (well at least edible) but apparently thomson's rate their late deals on a different star basis which is MISLEADING! This tricked the majority of the holiday makers staying in the hotel on our visit and there was plenty of complaints put through not that it came of anything!

If we had been staying s/c it would have been a lot less of a disappointment because the rooms were really lovely but it was the fact that you had to eat out cos the restaurant resembled more of a butlins style canteen! In fact the compostella beach golf 3 could b compared to a cheap holiday camp.

The location was also a bit iffy as the walk into town was via "ladies of the night" looking for business and druggies hence there was plenty muggings. (Oh but according to our travel rep it had a very low crime rate so maybe his honestly would have warned a few oblivious holiday makers of the surroundings the hotel was set in) so there was added expense to get out of the hell hole i.e taxi's to the beach, to the main resorts etc... and it must be noted this "4 star" hotel does not have a beach bus like you would expect AND no form of public transport goes anywhere near this hotel.

Sorry for our honesty but it could have ruined a first time visit to Tenerife. If it wasnt for the resort outside of this establishment we probably would have hated our holiday. We would definately go back to Tenerife but DEFINATELY not the Compostella Beach Golf 3! Maybe it had just went downhill by September 2003 judging by the other feedbacks!

I went to the Compostela Beach hotel in August 5th 03.

I thought it was brilliant the entertainment was excellent the activities were good and the hotel was lovely (apart from the cockroaches). The entertainers were very funny and fun to be around . The male entertainers were gorgeous too espcially the french one Johnny.

The swimming pools were nice and big, and the Adults, Teenagesr, and little kids got to play group games like waterpolo (the entertainers joined in). And outside of the pool people got to play more group games like vollyball, babminton etc. If you didn't want to do that you could play normally in the pool or go to the poolside bar or sunbathe.

I think the best part was the night entertainment, the mini disco was on at 8:45pm then the bingo and sometimes you would have the quiz and after that at 10:30pm the big shows.

The Compostela Beach Golf 3 is a great place to go on holiday no matter how old or young you are.

I was very surprised at how lovely the apartments were, the staff were very friendly, the kids club was the best I've seen.

The apartments were about 10 min walk to the beach but you had a very steep hill to get back, taxis are very cheap though.

Loads of bars and places to eat along the beach. I would go back.

When we first got to our hotel room we knew something was wrong, there was 2beds in the living room and a sofa, and a bedroom at the back, we had a booked a two bedroom, we went downstairs and asked them to check, they comfirmed we had the wrong room and apolagised, they asked us to consider waiting till the morning as it was early hours, in the morning they showed is a golf course view room which we prefered was a pool side view, the only room left was the penthouse suite, my father said we would pay extra, the hotel manager said we could have it for free which was great.
The Compostela Beach Golf 3 hotel was brilliaint, the rooms were so clean and the bed sheets had been newly washed, the bathroom toilet has plastic to prove that it had been cleaned thouroughly, it was a place where you could live, the beds were comfy the kitchen wad homely, it made me and my parents and brothers feel right at home. There was a television which was a euro per hour.
The pools were excellent and very joyful to go in, the sign says no diving, no jumping and no lilos but no-one cared everyone jumped in and bought lilos (also available on site)and everyone had a laugh.
The entertainment at night was fantastic, such things went on like hypnotism, bird shows eg parrot riding a scooter, theatre productions eg grease, it was a very joyful night which started around 7 and ended at 1am but people left as they liked, they had two bars which serve fair prices and you also had waiters coming around the entertainment areas bringing around free bowls of crisps.
There were around five computers and had such things installed like msn, aol. They ran by a euro each half an hour which is quite long.
The people there were very friendly, thats why we are going there again this year.
Happy Booking. :)

This is a great place to go for a holiday .The kids club are cool. Say hi to casper from Danny and Georgina my kids if you would. The night time shows are very good. The rooms are very clean and all the staff are very helpful on the down side the pool area is very slippy and the shop and bar is very expensive,but that aside, it was a great holiday for all of us its about 10mins from a cost cutter and 15 mins from a netto. They both come in very handy also the golf course next door is very expensive 80 euros for 18 holes with your own clubs 120 euros without but all in all a good holiday so we have booked again next year Jan 04 half board though .Hope this has been of some use Reece Mel Danny and Georgina

We (me & hubby) went to Tenerife for a week with my parents from 6th - 13th October. When we arrived ther was a heatwave and it was 37 degrees!!

Having just stayed one terrible night at the Parque de la Paz we eventually persuaded the JMC rep we should be moved. There was a fee of

Stayed here August 02.

Excellent, a bit far out but taxis only 3 euros to Los Cristianos. Pools not deep, ideal for young children. Apartments enormous, very clean. Try get one with view of golf course.

No rowdy teens here as they are very strict on noise after 10.30. There were 9 of us, 2 families, had a brilliant time, lovely apartment, full size oven and hob not that we used it. No creepy crawlies.

If you want brilliant accommodation, nice pool, clean rooms book it. We hired a 9 seater van for a week, great fun.
