Caybeach Princess

We have just returned from a 7 night EasyJet holiday at the Caybeach Princess. Welcomed by friendly reception. Our bungalow was clean, well equipped, roomy, beds were so comfy, bathroom was nice too! Overall no complaints!! Slept so well! Then sorted our own breakfast in the super kitchen 🍴 🍳 every morning! The bathroom towels could be improved! The pool is freezing ❄, refreshing but hay... once was enough for me. Pool bar drinks and food was very nice and well priced! Note: the hotel is very quiet the hotel is bit out of the way the hotel is served well by taxis

We have had a lovely and relaxing 10 days at the cay beach princess. We chose this hotel as it was quiet and we needed a holiday base and we love Maspalomas as a holiday base. We are not hotel lovers in the main, and this offered us a little apartment but with wider hotel facilities. We were located at the back of the hotel which was great as we had no passing people walking outside our apartment giving us great peace and quiet. We went to the beach most days wich we love. Loungers and parasol hire is very cheap (2 loungers and a parasol only €7.5 per day and is managed through cashless payment) but the pool I thought was lovely too, and yes it is quiet, I personally would consider if this is the right place for a family holiday as little for children to do if you just want to stay in the hotel all day. We decided to eat here on a half board basis as I find eating out every night quite expensive and we thought the food was really nice as there is a fresh cooked option each day and the package deal prices for half board work out about £20pp per day. We never struggled to find anything to eat and the frequency of steak was good! We even had sushi one evening and all food was fresh cooked. This suited us as it left our evenings free to visit local bars and venues which we did every night. We went out each evening so cannot comment on hotel entertainment, but taxis are cheap to all areas. Maspalomas and PDI are great locations for fun nights out which we thoroughly enjoyed. The area offers lots of entertainment options from quiet bars and seafront restaurants, live music and lively bars and of course the famous yumbo and cita centres for an array of entertainment catering for all tastes. We really liked the bars on PDI beach in the evening especially bars such as the Tipsy Hammock and the music at Mozart II. The restaurants are also very cheap here too with a wide range of options. Avoid the Hardrock cafe, expensive and not very entertaining when we visited. If you like rock music, try to see theThe local legend that is Kelly Marlow, an extremely entertaining musician based on the island. Our room was nice, clean and tidy and frequently cleaned, it was a little basic but I was on holiday and spent very little time there. Bedroom air on was bliss so we slept well which was great as we arrived in a heatwave with temperatures exceeding 40 degrees for much of our stay. Taxis are cheap but buses are ridiculously cheap. We went to Porto Rico up the coast for €1.75. There is a bus stop right outside the hotel This hotel gave us everything we needed to have already booked again for next year. We did notice that if you book with with Jet2 there is a bag pick up on the morning of departure taking away the hassle of having to get the bags to the airport later in the day and checking in. Hope this review helps xx

Stayed there for a week for our first family sun holiday with my husband and 11 year old son who has autism. It was perfect for us, quiet and relaxed. Breakfast was nice. Lunch in the snack bar every day we couldn't fault it, quick and tasty. The restaurant in the main building we only tried the first night and didn't find it great so we went out after that but we did see plenty eating there so depends what you like! Restaurant is only open 7-9 pm. Happy hour 12-1 every day and bingo. Also second Happy hour 6-7 cocktails were tasty. Taxis cheap so we went to the yumbo centre 2 nights for food. Also found a lovely Chinese locally. Apartment was clean and well kept. Only downside is the air con is only in the bedroom,we hired a fan for the living area but it didn't make much difference so be aware of this if you have someone sleeping on pull out bed. No balls or inflatables allowed in pool. Shop has a decent selection, prices not too bad. If you plan to wash clothes go elsewhere for your detergent as that's expensive in the shop. Reception and bar staff were nice. Paid 16 euro for the remotes for tv and air con but got it back when leaving. Bar closes at 10 pm every night so if you want a session it's probably not the place for you. Pool is very cold but ya get used to it and we didn't mind as it was 34 degrees that week 😅

I've done a few reviews and this one i must say is a little tricky. I've given it average in the star rating but it could easily be higher. Went with family and friends with kids during late Oct half term. As most others have said, nice overall feel to the place, quiet & relaxing and the staff were nice. The group i went with thought it was great. Its a little remote but taxi's are easy and don't cost to much to get most places. It's near the Holiday World complex which we walked to easily quite a few times. Facilities : Rooms, little dated but had everything you'd need, guess they will eventually upgrade them in time. Pool, nice size but utterly freezing, we had great weather while there but i think they import the water from the Arctic !! could not understand why it was soooo cold. Mentioned it but told they will heat the smaller one in Nov, not much use :) . Lifeguard kept a tight reign on any fun .. no balls no inflatables, i had read the inflatables rule but zero common sense applied when the pool was empty (which was often as the hotel wasn't overly busy during our stay) Bar, nice enough .. prices varied per staff member, which was odd. Pool & TT tables and gaming machines all a little dated. Overall i think they need to figure out what their overall ethos/character is. Not really fun for kids so make it more adult themed ? Improve it for families .. more fun & things to do ? Open a bar inside, amongst the food area perhaps, past 10pm. Keeps noise down for rooms near the stage ? They still charge for safes & using old golf clubs etc, just add that into the room cost ! So .. as mentioned nice place, ownership just need to try a little harder in my opinion.

Just back from here a few days ago, can’t fault the hotel one bit stunning bungalows, very clean al the rooms where equipped with what you need for self catering didn’t eat here so can’t comment on the food we always ate out which is a taxi ride to the beach no more that 7 euros which is decent price, only bad thing a can say about here is there was no entertainment at night which was quite boring considering kids were in this hotel( not many). Suppose to be a kids club every day also but that wasn’t even on any day we were there. Deffinately not a hotel for kids in my opinion which is a shame because it’s a lovely place to stay. Also not allowed inflatables in pool either which is boring for the kids also as that’s what makes their holiday. I would say this is hotel more suitable for people that like to go back to their rooms for a drink rather that stay out. Would I return proberbly not especially with kids. Staff were also lovely x

Rated 3 star by the tourism authority and by the tour operator I wonder if that’s optimistic. The bungalows are well equipped for self catering and there’s a convenience store attached to the property for basics. It’s not too far an uphill walk to Mercadona for a greater range at better prices and, if you find it difficult to carry bags of groceries, a taxi ride isn’t expensive. Housekeeping was excellent. I don’t fault the premises but the restaurant could be so much better. Breakfast was dismal. Spend a few euros more and offer real fruit juice please instead of chilled cordial from a fountain. Dinner was poor. Steak and fish cooked to order but buffet service for vegetables and a tepid entrecôte sauce. Bland puddings that don’t taste as they look. Just a little effort and it could go from perfunctory to great. Poolside bar service, other than “happy hour”, was expensive and erratic. Some struggled to operate the screen driven epos and prices charged varied from barman to barman. In another review, I commented “it’s not the place, it’s the people”. The same comment applies here. Raise the game.
