Fairways Club

Während das Personal sehr zuvorkommend war, hat das Management hinter den Kulissen in vielerlei Hinsicht unsere Erwartungen übertroffen, nachdem ihm für den Aufenthalt dort 300 Punkte pro Woche berechnet wurden – RCI muss diese Bewertung neu bewerten. Schlafzimmer unzumutbar zu klein. Bei der Ankunft mussten 35 Euro/Woche-Gebühr sowie die Kosten für Poolhandtücher und den Safe bezahlt werden. Rund um den Pool gab es nur begrenzt Schatten (mehrere und unzureichende Sonnenschirme) und die Regeln für die Reservierung von Sonnenliegen wurden völlig unkontrolliert und ignoriert. Von 8.00 – 18.00 Uhr machen sich die gierigen Gruppen auf den Weg. Leider hatten viele örtliche Dienstleistungsunternehmen geschlossen und dieses Resort an einem „abgeschiedenen Ort“ zurückgelassen, was bedeutete, dass wir jeden Tag für Taxis bezahlen mussten, um andere günstigere Restaurants und Bars zu besuchen. Sehr, sehr enttäuscht.

We spent a week based at the Fairways. It had everything we needed in a central location. Helpful and polite staff with a well managed, secure and maintained environment. Room was clean, well equipped and spacious. Some furniture was a little dated but it was functional. It is a great resort for those looking for a quieter location, who are able to travel around the island to see the sights and attractions. It has great local cliff edge and cove walks, shops, harbour and restaurants within a comfortable walking distance. We weren't their to play golf, but for anyone who does this would be even more ideal.

Ideal for golfers with two nearby courses. Fairways is fairly quiet outside of school holidays, has an excellent underused resteraunt. Nice if getting dated accomodation, quiet, when no maintenance is being done. No washing machine in our unit, so had to hand wash. Golf del Sur is a quiet resort with not many resteraunts or bars, two Irish bars are worth a visit and and excellent 19th Hole resteraunt 200m up the road from Fairways

Overall this was great place and we would definitely come back. When we first arrived (in the middle of the night) I would say I was a little concerned on first impressions, the apartment was large but very dated, I’d say 1970s or 80s, the coloured bed throws and blankets always give me the willies, a little mould in the bathrooms where it’s quite old. When we woke up in the morning and had a full Day round the pool my impression changed and at the end of the holiday I’d say I was converted and would definitely come back. Key things to note for me were, easy access to food and drinks around the pool, the pools were heated which meant no moaning from the kids, the baby pool was actually quite toasty, the apartment had a separate room for the kids and separate bathroom, well equipped if you did want to cook, the kitchen was very clean. White towels and white under sheets on the beds. bit of a walk to the bus routes but we got a mix of buses and taxi to Siam park, the monkey zoo, the beach at el menaro (which was great for the young kids). 30 min taxi to los Christians and adeje. We took a small self drive boat out for a few hours, All in all a great base for our holiday.

I always love going back to Fairways. The staff are all so pleasant and go out of their way to make our holiday enjoyable. Particulary loved the restaurant where the chef came out to chat and check that evrything was cooked to our liking. The new pool bar is really good as well. Can't wait till next time1
