Stayed here for 8 days and have stayed 5 times before. The grounds are stunning and the pools are amazing. It's very family orientated yet not noisy and a couple would love it too. They are classed as bungalows but they have an upstairs. Nicely decorated with small kitchen that has under counter fridge, hob, sink and storage cupboards. There is a sofa downstairs that can turn into a single bed, there is a flat screen tv with lots of channels although most are German you can get BBC world news and UK sky news. I believe you can pay for extra channels. Upstairs is a lovely bathroom with toilet, sink and large shower. Then there is a bedroom which leads onto a private balcony. The restaurant is lovely and food is tasty. there is a bar too. Staff are very very friendly. Cleaners are in the apartment every day and leave it spotless and supply clean sheets and towels.
MKane89, Edale, Reino Unido
Came to masapalomas for pride had the best time ever hotel staff friendly rooms very clean and ket in really good condition nothing bad to say about the hotel perfect for a self catering holiday, taxi sick you up outside to get to places you want to be and are very cheap only a 15 min walk from the beach and shops close by, but if you want to do a proper shop go to the mercadona it's really good and only 4 in a taxi.
4th Visit - excellent
MonAlBigTrip, Teignmouth, Reino Unido
Lovely complex. 2 good pool areas and the grounds are kept immaculate. Bungalows are very functional and clean. Small shop on site that sells a bit of everything. Close enough to walk to both the town and beach area.
great stay
sunseeker0223, aberdeen
These bungalows were perfect for our week away. My sister and I found the space to be ample and the facilities were just what we needed. The complex is well maintained, safe and staff are friendly. Excellent value for money

My Cousin and i have just spent a week here, the place is lovely, plenty of sunbeds Two lovely (Very clean) swimming pools and all the staff are so friendly and helpful! The onsite supermarket has everything and not too expensive but a ten minute walk and there is a larger supermarket which is cheaper The free shuttle bus to the Beaches is great, always on time and where it drops you off is where you get back on The restaurant does lovely food, we went SC but for 12Euros you can eat as much as you want from the Buffet which was really nice In a very quiet spot but taxis are so cheap you can easily get out and about of an evening There is free WiFi just get the password from reception, it works around the pool and in the bar Cant fault this place and it should have a higher star rating, would definitely go back!
Excellent !!
Jonathon D, Manchester, Reino Unido
We have now stayed at the Cordial 4 times and are going back in September ... The Cordial Green Golf Bungalows are excellent value for money. The bungalows themselves are always very clean and tidy and look beautiful in vibrant colours decorated by wonderful flowers ... The pool area is excellent, very clean and pretty ... The Cordial is ideal for young families to enjoy a safe environment and is perfect for golfers with maspalomas golf course right next door ... The bungalows are a 20 minute walk from Maspalomas front which in itself is beautiful and very upmarket ... I don't care much for Playa del Ingles bit tacky but has some great Chinese !! I love Gran Canaria and I love the Cordial and would recommend it to anyone
Amaia C,
HEMOS ESTADO 1 semana mi pareja y yo y ENCANTADOS!!!! cerca de las playas encima el hotel tiene bus gratuito para acercarte a ellas. No probamos la comida. LIMPIEZA EXCELENTE y piscina TB MARAVILLOSA. Los empleados super amables!! En especial Jacinto. Mil gracias por todo.
Simpleplumb, Benfleet
Just arrived home from our 6th visit to Green Golf, and have already booked for November. It's in a nice peaceful location with easy access to Yumbo at night or beach by day. But why go to the beach when you have great pools. Maid service always great. It's a real home from home now, looking forward to November Simon & Lisa
Excellent value, lovely bungalows and whole complex well kept
eccorosa, Londres, Reino Unido
We stayed for one week in March of this year and were totally impressed with this complex. The staff were extremely friendly and dealt with any queries quickly. Excellent value would recommend and go back again. Looking forward to my next stay.

happytraveller070473, Torquay, Reino Unido
We have spent the last 19 years with Ameigos now Cordial Green Golf, and most of the staff have been there longer than us. This complex was recommended to us and we have not been disappointed. All of the staff if treated with respect are polite and will aknowledge you. The complex over the years is always being updated with new pools of which there are 2. The bungalows are cleaned regularly and now have a microwave as standard which helps with the cooking. If anything is wrong you only have to ask reception and they put it write.
Outstanding Pools
LayneABurton, Londres, Reino Unido
Fabulously decorated and kept spotless...great value apartments with amazing swimming pools. Apartments cleaned 6 out of 7 days. Friendly staff and a convenient on site shop for essentials. Close to the dunes of Maspalomas and a large golf resort.
Relax, buen trato, todo perfecto
carlesmecu, Valencia, España
Estuve una semana de vacaciones, coincidiendo con unos amigos que ya estaban en la isla y puedo decir que los apartamentos están genial, el trato del staff es excelente, las piscinas muy cuidadas, el servicio de limpieza de las habitaciones muy bueno. Repetiría sin duda.

Claudia B, Illnau
Wundervolle Anlage, super Lage, sehr nette Betreuung! Gerne wieder! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Buenos días, Hemos estado 7 días en el mes de abril y con un sol espectacular durante toda la semana. UBICACIÓN: - a nosotros nos resultó muy grata ya que está alejado del bullicio y en una zona muy tranquila. No muy cerca de la playa aunque tienen servicio de autobús gratuito que realiza viajes todo el día. BUNGALOW: - muy limpios, muy acojedor y con una decoración moderna. Posee todos los utensilios de cocina para poder preparar las diferentes comidas. ZONAS COMUNES: - 2 piscinas impresionantes, una de ellas (la principal) climatizada, amplia y con muchas hamacas disponibles, nunca hubo que reservar. Jardines limpios y muy bien cuidados en cada parcela. Zona de restaurante bastante acojedor aunque no llegamos a utilizarlo. PERSONAL: - tanto recepción como el personal de mantenimiento, limpieza, camareros y todos muuuuuuy simpáticos, amables y profesionales. Da gusto recibir y responder con sonrisas a cualquier hora y en cualquier lugar. GRACIAS!!!! Finalizar puntualizando que íbamos con un niño de 1 año lo cual nos ubicaron al lado de la piscina (para una mayor facilidad a la hora de movernos) y nos facilitaron una cuna en la habitación. Sorpresa MUY GRATA del complejo...tanto es así que volvemos 15 días en junio . MUY RECOMENDABLE!!!!!
Clean and Friendly
This was our first stay at the Cordial Green Golf and it was fantastic. The resort is very clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We asked if we could have an apartment by the pool which we managed to get. There are two pools the main one is very big and they are cleaned every day. The restaurant has a varied menu and the breakfast menu is good. The location is great, only a few km from the beach. There are two beaches and the buses to take you there stop right outside the hotel. We found this a lovely hotel and will definitely be staying here again
Super schöner und ruhiger Urlaub...
Jennifer H, Ratisbona, Alemania
Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit unserem Aufenthalt. Alles sehr sauber und gepflegt. Wir hatten allerdings den Bungalow ohne Verpflegung gebucht, deswegen können wir zu dem Essen keine Angaben machen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!!!
fantastic again and again!
hildeverduyn, loppem
During the last years, we spent several holidays over here, and we keep on coming back! We enjoy the atmosphere, the big pools, "our" bungalow 131 at the golf course side, the new loungers by the pool and lots more! Every member of the personal is very kind, and always in for a talk!! It really feels like a second...
I love this place!
Tillyho77, Longford, Irlanda
Truly a great place to stay. Have stayed here twice and loved every minute. Ask for a pool apartment for best location! You do have to get taxis to the town but its not expensive. Overall great place to stay!
Family holiday
Mark H,
Great place to stay accommodation basic but clean and tidy, staff from the cleaners to the reception staff all friendly and helpful and great with our young son who had to go in reception every day to see them. Would definitely stop here again
Sun & Fun in January
heatherward13423, Guildford, United Kingdom
Enjoyed staying at Cordial Green Golf - our fourth visit - staff are always helpful & friendly. We booked two outings through reception with Last Minute Tours which were great fun. The weather was warm.
2nd visit in three months
gaytelford, Telford
If you have read my previous review... Well nothing has changed, still excellent and great value. For full review please read it. Only thing to add is that this time we ate there and the food is also very good from the snack menu to the full buffet. Highly recommended.
Been going for 16 years
Les G, Bolton, Reino Unido
We have been going to the Green Golf each January for the past 16 years, and have always found it very clean. All staff are friendly and helpful (especially so a couple of years ago when I was taken to hospital with pneumonia, and they made sure that my wife was OK). We have made many friends over the years at the Green Golf of people who go there annually, and we would not hesitate to recommend it; we have always done self-catering (and the equipment for this is excellent), but a restaurant is available at the hotel if you wish to eat there. I must also add that the new (and very numerous) sun loungers in the public areas are of a high standard and very comfortable particularly when compared to the previous ones! The hotel has a complementary bus to the beach and town, and taxis are numerous and cheap from outside the hotel. Les G.
been again
Tracey G, Peterborough, Reino Unido
spent a good 10 enjoyable days again in this complex very happy as usual and will be back again thanku lovely staff i stayed golf side this time which was very peaceful and great for sunbathing outside your apartment if u want quite and sun ask for sunny side

moving_malik, englnad uk
loved this place great clean friendly place good family environment very nice stay , beaches very close by , lovely heated pools, good helpful staff, accommodation very clean we stayed half board and only eat halal meat , there was lots of meat free options at the buffet , food was very nice , maspalomas over playa de ingles any-day, I found playa de ingles very tacky and very British , Maspalomas so much better in everyway especially beach and restaurants and shops around the lighthouse area, would love to return again, and what amazing weather for December 24/25 degrees loved it
Una sorpresa muy agradable
fendetestas62, Madrid, España
Suelo viajar a canarias una o dos veces al año para desconectar de la vida estresante de Madrid, siempre me he alojado en hoteles de cuatro o cinco estrellas. Sin embargo esta vez decidí probar en los bungalows en media pensión de Cordial Green Golf y he experimentado una sorpresa muy agradable. Ya quisiera muchos hoteles de cuatro estrellas dejar tan buen sabor de boca como me ha dejado este complejo hotelero. El bungalow donde he dormido es como tener una suite en un hotel 4 estrellas pero pagando infinitamente menos, todo un lujo. El complejo tiene unas instalaciones muy cómodas y agradables con piscina climatizada que se agradece, la cocina excelente,Israel jefe de cocina muy atento con todos, cuidando mucho los detalles y aunque no es de alta cocina la relación calidad/precio más que aceptable, tengo que destacar una cosa, una pega, pocas veces sale en las bandejas su mojo picón, realizado por Yeray, es sin ningún lugar a dudas, el mejor mojo picón que he probado en mi vida, que bueno XD. Todo el personal muy profesional y simpáticos , oósé camareros,Juan en recepción, pero en recepción tengo que destacar a Juani, que encanto de mujer, me hizo fácil los días que estuve allí, teniendo en cuenta la lluvia que lamentablemente me pilló en mi estancia, ella lo hizo todo fácil, para que la tempestad me arrebatara las ganas de vacaciones que necesitaba. En resumen Cordial Green Gol, una sorpresa muy que muy agradable, muchas gracias a todos.
Brilliant apartments!
Lauri A,
I stayed here about 8 years ago a and have stayed in several other places in Maspalomas. These apartments are lovely and ideal. Very clean, maids are polite and helpful. There are 2 massive pools! New sunbeds this year which are very comfortable I could sleep on them. Mini market in the complex has all your essentials, but there is a massive supermarket across the road (5 min walk) to faro with some restaurants aswell. 4 euros in taxi to yumbo centre which has brilliant nightlife and restaurants. Would recommend to everyone who wants a relaxing holiday :-)
Excellent holiday :-))
Kevin S, London, United Kingdom
On the 6th Nov.'14 I returned from 2 weeks at Cordial Green Golf. I went by myself as this was a very last minute booked self catering holiday following an operation which I'd had. All the staff and facilities were excellent and better than I expected, particularly the kitchen area which was not properly described by the tour operator thru which I booked the holiday. Considering how good the facilities are what came as no surprise was how many people were returning for the 3rd or 4th time and 1st timers, like myself, who will be returning. I had an excellent holiday and look forward to returning in Feb/March '15
Right first time!
Smalltownboys, Norfolk, United Kingdom
We first visited Cordial Green Golf in 2013 and posted our review on Tripadvisor. We were so pleased with every aspect of the complex that we decided to stay here again. We definitely made the right decision! It was reassuring on arrival to see so many familiar faces. The fact that the staff turnover is low shows that the staff must be doing something right. We have stayed in many complexes over the 21 years that we have been visiting Gran Canaria and often found big changes in the staff and that has usually reflected big changes in the associated centre.....not always for the better. From check in to departure the staff were second to none in their helpfulness and hospitality. The apartments are perfectly adequate for self catering and the on site supermarket provides everything to get you started. If you prefer, you can opt for all inclusive or just use the on-site restaurant on an ad hoc basis while still benefiting from having a considerable more personal living space in you apartment than you would in a conventional hotel set up. Ceiling fans in the living area and the bedroom make for a cooler environment at night and you can feel safe leaving your balcony door and window open at night as the complex is secured by a locked gate and on site security making regular patrols. In fact the only thing that may keep you awake are the sounds of the crickets calling.....but hey! You are on a tropical island after all! The pools are spotless and well maintained and the maids clean the apartments, changing towels and linen regularly. Green Gulf is situated away from the noisy hustle and bustle of Playa Del Ingles so you are guaranteed a peaceful environment day and night. However a taxi ride of less than 4.00 will drop you right in the heart of the busy night life. During the day there is a courtesy bus that takes you either to Playa Del Ingles or down to beach and the famous dunes of Maspalomas. Although not a "Gay Hotel" the complex is very gay friendly and, like us, there were several couples using Green Gulf as their base for a relaxing time in the sun while staying close to the world famous Yumbo Centre, where every evening is like Pride! We will certainly be staying here again as it meets all our requirements, and then some. We may however chooses to travel with a different airline, but that's a whole other review! We are still at a loss to understand why this complex is only awarded "2 Keys" when it clearly delivers a holiday that far exceeds expectations.
Zeer mooi verzorgd park
Fred0762, Bruges, Belgium
Wij zijn hier al vaak geweest, nieuwe verstelbare ligstoelen en binnenkort ook magnetron en haardroger aanwezig. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Kleine supermarkt aanwezig. Grote keuze bij het ontbijt. Prachtige zwembaden, de huisjes, zwembad en tuin alles is er even schoon. Kijken er al naar uit om terug te gaan.
Can't wait to come back
Irish diner F,
As I sit here on my last night I thought I'd share my thoughts. What a great little place to stay. This is our second time here and we are already talking about coming back next year! We had a great time the resort is lovely and the staff so helpful. The resort is not in the centre of maspolmas but only a 10 minute walk to some lovely restaurants. The apartments are great well fitted out with everything you would need! Would recommend to everyone.
Great Value
MarkT1958 , Londres, Reino Unido
Like so many other people we've stayed here before it's clean comfortable and really well laid out. It appears that they try and keep couples at one end of the complex which suits us fine as it's quieter. We always ask for a pool side and the hotel is happy to oblige. It's about a 20 minute walk to the dunes at Maspolomas and there's always a ready supply of taxis outside.
Wonderful place to stay.
Janine L, Manchester, United Kingdom
We've been holidaying here at Green Golf once or twice a year for over 10 years now, and the standard never drops, clean, comfortable, wonderful staff who go out of their way to make your holiday a great one. I would strongly recommend staying at the Cordial Green Golf complex to anybody wanting an enjoyable, peaceful family holiday. Free wi-if around the pool and bar area, supermarket on site and one a short walk away, but more down at the Boulevard, which is a beautiful place to eat out and enjoy the views. Try Grand Italia, excellent restaurant.
Total Bliss
Lorr1968, Gales, Reino Unido
We have just returned from a fab 2 weeks at cordial green golf... Had an amazing time, the bungalows were cleaned every day apart from Sunday, bedding was changed at least 5 times, the grounds are kept immaculate, and the two huge pools are spotless, plenty of sun loungers in the shade and by the pools, it's lovely sitting out on your private terrace of an evening surrounded by Palm trees and beautiful flowers/shrubs, the staff are very friendly, and always happy and smiling, there is a supermarket on site, and a free bus service to the beach and playa de ingles.. But we used to walk or grab a cab directly outside the resort, at only 3.50 it's very cheap... There's a few restaurants close by, we loved toro 2 at faro 2, but also amazing restaurants in maspalomas, the complex has a no noise policy after 11pm, so an ideal place for peace & relaxation... We are returning again in December and also sept 2015... Loved every minute of this holiday !!
great memories
Tracey G , Peterborough, Reino Unido
bit late making this review as i stayed 2 weeks in june and am due to return in december first of all would like to stay the staff were excellent the pool was amazing and most of all the apartments were clean very spacious and relaxing my neighbours were great and i made some new friends as there was such a relaxing atmosphere i have stayed in gran canaria many times and the best accomodation by far for the money hope is review helps for anyone considering booking these apartments u will not be dissapointed
Spoonie1892 , Gateshead, Reino Unido
Just returned from a week long stay here with my girlfriend. Lovely bungalows in a great location. 5 euro taxi fare away from all the main areas to visit. Will definitely return here in the future. Staff also very friendly. Would recommend the lighthouse area for food & shopping & the tropical shopping centre for cocktails & live music.
Alejandro S,
Muy buena calidad precio bien situado muy tranquilo las chicas de limpieza muy profesionales y serviciales igual que los de recepción en general muy satisfactorio. Repetiremos seguro gracias por todo
fantastic again and again!
hildeverduyn , loppem
We visited several places, but always saying: no, nothing feels as good as Green golf!!! We keep up coming back here, because it really feels like our second home! A warm welcome, very friendly staff, amazing pools, and a relaxing terrace in front of our bungalow (we like to stay at the golf side, it's more quiet and relaxing). Sunbeds are hard, but buying a top mattress solves the problem! They are always available, so you don't have to rush for it early in the morning. Breakfast is great value for money ( we're having it several times a week,but you're not obliged to have it every day, and tha's a benifit, because having breakfast at our own terrace is cozy too) .It's a quiet place.right between Playa del Ingles and the faro of Maspalomas, and you can reach both places easily by walking, taking the hotel shuttle bus or a taxi. For us, Green Golf is THE place to be for a warm, relaxing holiday!
cadre magnifique avec piscine superbe
guymarie , DOUSSARD
Un accueil sympathique dans un cadre tranquille bien aménagé, avec une végétation entretenue chaque matin par les jardiniers. Le personnel est discret mais efficace La piscine est fabuleuse avec de l'eau douce et assez grande pour que chacun puisse en profiter Le rapport qualité au mois de Juin est certainement le meilleur de Maspalomas A bientôt de vous revoir. Guy et Marie Claire Consejo sobre las habitaciones: Aux extrémités de la piscine pour être au calme, coté intérieur

fantastische topper !!!
mokegent , Brujas, Bélgica
Ik ga nu al twee jaar naar daar. En moet zeggen de kwaliteit verbeterd met de jaren. Rustige omgeving... Fantastische sfeer van het personeel. Niet veraf gelegen van alles! Je leert er ook elke keer nieuwe mensen kennen. Voor herhaling vatbaar !!!
Great base for a great hoiday
Robert M, Nottingham, Reino Unido
We stayed here late May/early June and had a wonderful time. The apartments are excellent and the ceiling fans very welcome. Beds were comfy and we didn't have to worry about mozzies so we slept well each night. The pool area was very well kept and the food was good and very reasonably priced - we had a few lunches and a couple of evening meals in the restaurant. Another big plus is that it's very quiet around the complex, and the staff are very friendly. Although it was a bit of a trek down to the dunes/faro area - it took us about 40 minutes in the heat of the day - there is an excellent free bus service to take you there and back. All in all an excellent holiday and we'll definitely be going back to Maspalomas and the Cordial Green Golf.
1st visit - But certainly not the last !
MrStefanos, Manchester, Reino Unido
Spent a week at Cordial Green Golf 17th to 24th May 2014, and look forward to our next visit. The "bungalows" are on 2 levels and really well equipped for self catering. We were pool-side, and there were plenty of sunbeds and plenty of room for all. One tip is to take or buy a cheap foam camping mat, as the sunbeds are quite uncomfortable with just a towel. There is a free bus service to take you to Maspalomas beach, or you can walk, approx. 20 minutes. Plenty of shops, bars and restaurants to choose from. Beach is beautiful, and the atlantic breeze was very welcome. When we were there it was Maspalomas Gay Pride week, and the Yumbo centre, 3 euros in a taxi, was a hive of activity, lots of colour and characters, with some great live entertainment and shows. Lots of bars and restaurants to choose from, please try the Chinese buffet 7.5 euros eat all you can. Some of the best Chinese food I have ever tasted and constantly refreshed, not left to stew. For great lunches or romantic early evening meals, try the restaurant at the golf course. Good choice, great service, well presented and tasty, and very reasonable, given the picturesque surroundings. If playing golf, after 4pm is only 42 euros including a buggy per person. Pleasant course, good challenge for a "club" golfer. Staff were very friendly, the food on offer was good, pizza's will feed 3 easily. Breakfast at 8 euros bit pricey, but you can eat all you want. We had brekky here once, as we self catered, but choice on offer was excellent. Taxi's were plentiful and not expensive to get around. Would advise if considering any excusrsions, barter to get the best price. We went out to see the dolphins, which was nice, then to a bay for some banan boating and jet skiing ( pay extra). Food was paella, fuit and cakes. Beer was supplied, but spirits in short supply. Still had a nice 5 hour trip though. Will advise all to get a room safe, you get 10 euro deposit returned so only 13 euros for week. Overall the complex was clean, very pleasant and reasonably quiet. Yes, a few loud moments, especially when people were returning from clubbing, but nothing to shout about. We are already booking to return next May 2015, but if time allows, will go back in October 2014. The large supermarket 10 mins walk away is cheaper and better stocked than the one on-site, and the market on Saturday 20 mins walk or 5 mins in taxi, is well worth a visit. Some good quality at good prices, especially if you barter hard. If arriving late evening, buy some water/ drinks at the airport before transfer, as the shop will be shut, and the fridge is not stocked with anything. Overall, loved our stay at Cordial Golf, good accommodation, good surroundings and good location.
DLV1980, Londres, Reino Unido
This is an amazing place, so quite, colourful and service is great. I went self catering but ate here also, food was nice. I will be returning! Staff were friendly and noticed they spoke many languages! Very clean and serviced regular if wanted. Location is fantastic! Just a short walk to the beach (or free yajo bus) mini shop just by entrance or slightly bigger shop (faro dos) just 10 mins walk away. Highly recommended!
Unpack, forget & relax
GeordieDee , Newcastle, Reino Unido
absolutely brilliant stay there (17th to 24th May) & there's not a bad word to say about it, well maybe both pools should be heated lol & the wifi is not very good unless you are actually by the bar room/food area, bungalows are spot on, staff friendly & helpful, food was good, cleaning service was excellent, I wasn't actually expecting the cleaning service so was pleasantly surprised, the golf course looked green & lush so a good game should be had ( I don't play but my brother does & he told me to have a look), easy access to anywhere as there was always a taxi passing the entrance or the free bus service to be used, I will defo be staying there again, a very relaxing holiday & well enjoyed, well done Green Golf.
Cordial green golf highly recommended
Robert D,
From start to finish the trip was made by the immaculate welcome we received from the staff at the complex. First time we have stayed with this company. We have always went to two others. First class resort. Highly recommended and will definitely be returning. Thanks for a wonderful welcome and excellent stay.
4th time to stay
AileenMeath , meath
Just returned from our stay at Green Golf, this is our 4th time since Feb 12 so I suppose that speaks for itself. Its an ideal location 2.4k walk to beach if u hire a bike which we did u can make it in 5 mins. Green Golf runs a shuttle bus to beach and playa del ingles but its actually nicer to walk or cycle at your leisure in the gorgeous weather. We use public transport to and from airport as we got stung last time with coach transfer it arrived late couldnt guarantee getting us to airport on time for our flight, so we got a taxi which cost us 40. The bus 66 leaves airport 20 mins past every hour and brings u to faro 2 which is about 15mins walk to Green Golf and u can get it back to airport at 24mins past every hour to airport, it takes about 40 mins and costs 4.10 which is very good value and reliable. The accomodation itself is excellent is has everything u need for cooking etc. The staff are very friendly. The only downer was having to leave to come home.
Excellentes Vacances!!
meliana59 , Hazebrouck, Francia
Nous avons passé, mes enfants et moi 10 jours fantastiques à Maspalomas! L'hôtel est superbe (couleurs, bougainvilliers, palmiers, piscines...). Bien que situé un peu loin à pieds de la plage, cet hôtel nous apporte tout le confort dont on a besoin en vacances: propre, calme, le personnel est très agréable (Merci à Roben, si sympathique!). rien à redire sauf: on y retourne quand??
Gerardo D , Telde, España
Recomendable 100%. Tranquilidad máxima, entorno agradable, piscinas estupendas y perfectamente limpias. Bungalows equipado y decorado de maravilla. Limpieza diaria. Personal del complejo muy amables y competentes.
a fantastic family holiday
Sarah H , York, Reino Unido
The accommodation was well designed and spacious for our family (children aged 1 and 5). The kitchen was well equipped and a dish cloth, scourer and washing up liquid was provided on arrival. The complex was beautiful, the pools superb and never felt crowded as they're so large. The mini market provided a reasonable range of basics but there is a larger supermarket at Faro 2 centre nearby. Maspalomas is a pretty resort which is easily accessed on foot, although the free bus was good too.
Tolle Anlage - und wir kommen wieder
JazzBerlin, Berlín, Alemania
Nachdem wir im November letzten Jahres schon eine Woche in dieser tollen Anlage verbracht haben, buchten wir nun auch im April ganz spontan nochmal eine Woche - wir wussten ja was uns erwartet. Die Anlage ist toll angelegt und gepflegt (der Gärtner ist ab 7 Uhr beim Sprengen und sauerberhalten), viel grün und die Bungalows verteilen sich harmonisch um den riesigen Pool. Die Bungalows sind mit Küche und Wohnzimmer mit Terasse im EG und Bad und Schlafzimmer mit Balkon im OG ausgestattet. Die Küche hat alles was man zum kochen braucht (wir hatten Selbstverpflegung), das Bad hat eine Dusche. Die Bungalows wurden täglich (ausser Sonntags) super gereinigt. Für alle die einen Mietwagen dabei haben: Parkplätze direkt vor der Anlage ausreichend vorhanden. Wir können diese Anlage absolut weiterempfehlen, vor allem wenn man Ruhesuchend ist (nur wenig Abendanimation, was wir sehr angenehm empfinden) - der nächste Aufenthalt für 2015 ist schon geplant.
lin w , Plymouth, Reino Unido
This complex is stunning. Imaculatly maintained grounds and pools . Bungalows quite adequate and very clean. Loved the enclosed little patio areas.staff friendly and helpful. Just cant wait to return to this superb complex. 30 min walk to mas but well worth the effort.can catch the free bus during the day or taxi less than 4 euros at night.
Joannebrown40 , Prestwick, Reino Unido
From the moment we arrived at Green Golf we immediately felt a great warm from the staff! Our bungalow was lovely and in a great location right next to the pool! Our room was cleaned every day except a Sunday which is understandable the maids done a brilliant job.. Everyday something was getting cleaned! Immaculate accommodation and we are going back in July can't wait.. You also don't need a car it's walking distance to beach shopping centre and restaurants!! See you all soon again!! Joanne and Jim Brown
Fantastic accomadation
Paul A , Norwich, Reino Unido
Me an my girlfriend spent a long time searching for the perfect place to stay on our first holiday together, then we came across the cordial green golf apartments and it looked lovely on the pics. We booked up for one week costing £240 and on our arrival we were blown away with how immaculate the bungalow and complex was. We went on a self catering basis and had hired a car which for us was essential as it is a little bit out of the way but it suited us fine as car hire was very cheap and we liked the freedom of having a car to explore this amazing island. Taxis are very cheap if you didn't want to hire a car. Taxi to maspalomas town about £3, playa del ingles £3ish. Which a couple of nights we did as gave us the freedom to have a drink an not worry about driving. The cordial green golf does have a free shuttle bus to maspalomas and ingles but the last bus is around 5pm which for us was a little early for us to go out. We went in April an actually only got back a couple of days ago an we had amazing weather, temps of around 25c most days. Absolutely amazing holiday and the complex was the best I've stayed in for a lot of years, the maids service was second to none, very thorough and immaculately clean. We were there for 7days and was cleaned six times. Couldn't find one fault with the place. Only wifi in bar area but for us coming on holiday is a time to get away from the internet and phones etc anyway so didn't bother us one bit. We spent a fantastic week in fantastic location in fantastic accomadation at a fantastic price. And we will definitely be coming back sometime in future and would highly recommend this place...

Holiday Heaven
Stewart B , Plymouth, Reino Unido
Had a wonderful week at Green Golf, maspalomas. Staff very friendly, bungalows clean and functional, weather superb at end of February. With golf course outside the front door, and a tennis centre just up the road, perfect location for an active holiday, or just as good if you wish to laze beside the pools. Our fifth visit, and will book for next year.
Relaxing warm and friendly

Cordial green golf is kept very clean and tidy, the staff are all very friendly. The bungalows are always spotlessly clean and comfortable. We enjoy the tranquility of the complex, although we go self catering the food in the bar is very good and reasonably priced. You are only a 20 minute walk from the beach and not far from Playa De Ingles if you want the town.The bus service is excellent as are the Taxis.

I stayed here with my boyfriend and 8 of our friends. We paid £68 each for a week here, and quite frankly, we weren't expecting much, but this exceeded all of our expectations. We arrived quite early after an early morning flight, and we expected that we couldn't check in until the afternoon. However, one of five rooms were available so we dumped all of our bags into one room whilst we explored and waiting for the other rooms. I asked if it was possible to have all five rooms close together, and we were lucky because this was not a problem. The apartments were well equipped with all the cooking essentials you needed. The bathroom was spacious and full of light. Shower was pretty good. The bedroom was located upstairs with twin beds, big wardrobe, staff and balcony. The swimming pool was huge, and always sunbeds available. We didn't really use the hotel supermarket, as it was quite pricey, so we walked over to the supermarket located in the square. The reception staff were always helpful when ordering a taxi to Maspalonas, Meloneras and Playa Del Ingles. You could walk into Maspalomas/Meloneras but it took about 45 minutes. It was quite a pleasant walk. I recommend this hotel, and it should be much more expensive.
Uno dei migliori posti di Maspalomas

Veramente eccezionale per l'ambiente,il personale,le piscine,la vegetazione ed i fiori che ricoprivano i bungalows,la vicinanza alle bellissime dune.Mi dispiace solo non aver potuto usufruire dei servizi del ristorante a cena. Posso però confermare l'abbondanza nella scelta e la qualità della 1^ colazione (che però era quasi esclusivamente europea,ma del resto il 90% degli ospiti era norvegese,tedesco,svedese, scandinavo e quindi non c'è da stupirsi!). Veramente consigliato per la tranquillità e la bellezza del posto.
Delizioso complesso di bungalow
lupogigi , Bergamo, Italia
Dopo un soggiorno di 15 giorni a Gennaio 2014 non posso che confermare le più lusinghiere critiche lette su questo sito.- La struttura è composta da una serie di piccole costruzioni a 2 piani posta intorno alle due piscine principali, molto ben curate, esiste inoltre una piscina più piccola per i bimbi.-I bungalow sono costituiti da un soggiorno-cucina posto al piano terra con divano poltrona, mobile, tavolo con sedie, armadietti con stoviglie e tutto quanto necessario per la cucina (pentole varie,spremi agrumi, ecc) compreso bollitore, tostapane,fornello a due piastre a induzione,frigorifero; al piano superiore (14 gradini) una stanza con armadio, cassaforte (a pagamento) una bella finestra ad angolo che da un bellissimo balconcino fiorito che sovrasta la comodissima veranda munita di tavolo 3 sedie e sdraio.-Letti molto confortevoli (con materassi nuovi).-Bagno con doccia.-Personale cortese, particolarmente efficiente quello della ricezione.-Posizione in zona tranquilla e verde con molte palme a circa 15 minuti a piedi dalle celebri dune (da percorrere quasi interamente su percorso pedonale e strade con scarso traffico. In ogni caso un servizio navetta gratuito porta sia a Playa di Maspalomas che a Playa de Ingles con numerose corse giornaliere.-Fuori dall'albergo passano anche numerosi autobus pubblici e taxi molto economici.-Unici nei rilevati: wifi gratuito che di riceve solo nella parte centrale in prossimità delle piscine, la TV a pagamento che non riceve i canali italiani.-
parfait comme d'habitude

C'est la deuxième fois que nous allons au Cordial Green golf pour les fêtes de fin d'années et comme l'année dernière, tout était très bien. L'endroit est calme, la piscine très belle, les jardins bien entretenu, le personnel charmant. L'endroit est très calme et nous avons pu nous reposer. Le jour de Noel, notre fils a pu profiter comme l'année passée de toboggans gonflables installés dans la piscine... un joli cadeau pour les enfants... Nous y retournerons sans doute l'année prochaine...

Ya es la tercera vez que nos alojamos en el Green Golf y todo perfecto como siempre. Apartamentos muy tranquilos y el personal muy atento. Muy cerca de Maspalomas y playa del Inglés. Tienen servicio de autobus que te acerca hasta la playa. Wifi gratuito aunque debes estar cerca de recepción para tener buena señal. TV y caja fuerte de pago. Repetiremos

È il secondo anno che ci vado. Complesso eccellente, piscine grandi e pulite, ottima organizzazione e personale veramente gentile! Lo consiglio a tutti! Se vi piace andare in spiaggia è a cinque minuti dalle dune di Màspalomas!
Great place to unwind
Croydontel , Croydon, Reino Unido
Returned for a second time this year and it was again a wonderful relaxing time. On arrival the welcome was excellent, I forgot my Cordial Card but the staff took a lot of trouble finding my number and ensuring I was able to use it for discounts. Nothing was too much trouble and I well impressed by all the staff, reception, bar/restaurant, cleaners and ground staff. All of them said hello and smiled. Even moved us just for a better aspect without any question and we changed our minds about where to move yo twice without a problem. Green Golf is a great place to relax. There are plenty of sun lounges around the pools so no stress about finding somewhere to sunbathe. The accommodation is fine and best of all it's quiet at night with patrols to ensure there's not too much noise. It's near enough to the nightlife if you want it. Definitely will be back.

My wife and I decided to revert to a "self catering" type of holiday as we had become fed up with "all inclusive packages". We have been on Safaris, Med/Caribbean Cruises and various other locations in Turkey and Egypt over the last five or six years plus the Cape Verde Islands and apart from the last named enjoyed our stay @ Cordial Green Golf better than any of the others (Egypt we also enjoyed very much as we found the Red Sea area well away from "political" and other forms of trouble). We were in room 168 and could not have asked for a better location as we had the benefit of the sun throughout the day (rooms 161 - 168 were perfectly located as also would be184-188 and 97-102 and 109-114). We seldom strayed away from the pool as despite the facilities being fairly full, they were surprisingly quiet whereas the beaches at Faro de Maspalomas were extremely busy and if you went into the sea you could wander for ages to find "your patch" unless someone had stayed behind to wave to you when you returned from your dip. We have already advised numerous friends/relatives about here. Any contact with members of staff were very acceptable also as all were extremely well mannered and helpful. It would be ideal for families, the only drawback for young couples/teenagers would be that the "night life" would probably be too quiet unless they went into Faro, but taxi fares are in region of 5 Euros (including tips).
Excellent all round experience
Shents123 , Cambridge, Reino Unido
Just returned from our stay at the Cordial Green Golf and I must say we were not disappointed. Prior to our trip we had read the reviews and requested a bungalow overlooking the golf course and were very pleased upon arrival that this had been arranged. In my opinion after staying there I would say that other bungalows are nicer, especially if you want sun on your balcony but nevertheless these are quiet and you can have a good laugh at some of the bad golf shots. The cleaners do a fantastic job of keeping the apartments clean and come in almost every day, they go above and beyond and even washed our dishes. The grounds are very well kept and the pool area is immaculate and incredibly clean. You never had to fight for a sunbed, even if you went out all day and wanted the last bit of sun. Additionally, the pools never got very busy and because of the length (about 75m) you could do some exercise. The location is ok, if a bit of a distance (and a rather uninteresting walk) from the nice part of the beach and decent restaurants. However, there are a number of free bus services put on by the hotel. Staff were very helpful and always answered questions we had. There are a lot of different nationalities staying there (which we liked) and I was very impressed with the staffs ability to converse in multiple languages. Overall I would recommend this if you are looking for a nice break away whether it be with family or just your partner, very good value for money!
Christmas Haven

We returned here last Christmas after staying many times at Easter and we were not disappointed. Our bungalow was facing the pool and got most of the sun most of the day. Very clean and tidy and maid service regularly too. The staff were friendly and polite . Great location in terms of walking to the beach or the costa meloneras . Had evening entertainment for families and a Christmas show for the children. All in a super stay yet again.
Mary L. Great holiday. Superb Service.

Amazing place. Great location.No need for a car as bus service is great. All the hotel staff offer excellent service with a smile, very helpful and friendly. It is a relaxing enviroment. The bungalows are spacious, clean and well looked after. I did the half board option and I was surprised at the wide variety of food on offer and very tasty. We plan to visit again and also try their sister hotel in Tenerife.
Einfach Urlaub
Un viajero de Expedia,
Wir hatten sehr viel Spaß, das essen war sehr gut und abwechlungsreich. Das Personal freundlich und sehr liebevoll und aufmerksam als unsere Kinder krank wurden. Der Pool (2) super. Die Anlage schön und sauber. Wir waren erholt und würden auch wieder hin fahren.
Nicola P , Londres, Reino Unido
Me and my boyfriend just returned on Monday. Was so sad to leave, had the best time, and the resort was lovely with a real chilled layed back feeling to it. I thought the location was perfect, with the beach about a 20 min walk away, but a taxi is only 3 euros if you dont fancy the walk in the heat. It may seem like there is nothing around the resort when you first arrive, but if you walk over the road towards the larger shopping centre, (you will see the lights in the distance for it) there are a few restaurants located there, and the steak house is amazing! If you love steak go there! The owner is lovely and gave us a few drinks on the house as we went there three times in a week! The pool was lovely at the resort, and even though the resort was fully booked it did not seem crowded at all. The bunglows had everything you needed, and was easy to cook and store things if you go on room only like we did. I would recommend anyone to go hear, and i will be looking at going back next year. Vaule for money for this resort really stands out!
We'll be back!
King434110, Newcastle upon Tyne, Reino Unido
Spent a week here from 10th Oct in apartment 41. Can't praise the place highly enough,it was spotlessly clean and well equipped,even a kettle,tho not electric,coffee maker,toaster,and plenty of pots and pans if you're self catering as we were. Bedroom a little small but no problem,with a small balcony which we didn't use as we sat downstairs on the patio mostly. The two large and beautiful pools were thoroughly cleaned every day and very pleasant grounds. Pool facing rooms are best as the ones facing the golf course are a little too shaded,but very quiet if that's what suits you. Staff are very pleasant and helpful and the cleaners are great.Small mini-mart on site is useful.Very peaceful place with only the sounds of kids enjoying the pool where we were. Faro2 shopping centre has a couple of restaurants and bars and a mini-mart,and we ate in one of them on the first night. Food was good but the centre lacks atmosphere as most of the units are closed and empty so we didn't go back. The walk down to the prom at the lighthouse is easy (about 35 mins) and pleasant and the prom is lovely with lots of good restaurants and plenty of things happening. I can recommend Maximillians - a classy looking place near the lighthouse where the food was wonderful and not too expensive,and if you like ice cream look no further than Pinguino Soul further along the prom,they do some lovely knickerbocker glory type stuff. Can't wait to go back.
Peaceful and Beautiful
Sammyboy217 , Scotland
Tranquil setting to these apartments and a pretty layout, with the apartments surrounding two pools. The buildings are low rise and colourful and there is plenty of greenery. Exceptionally quiet, and ideal if you want a restful stay (but not the place if you want partying). The staff presented as approachable, helpful and professional. The apartments are small and basic, but exceptionally clean (No kettle, so bring your own if it is important to you). I was able to make all of our meals without any issues. We did not eat in the restaurant, so we cannot comment on the quality of the food, or the entertainment. It cost about 7 euros for 2 drinks at the bar - which seems to be standard prices. If you want to cook for yourself (like we did), it is best to shop a little further away. The shop on site is quite expensive. There is a modest supermarket at Faro 2 ( 10 min walk way), but the fresh fruit, veg and meat was not so fresh, and again it is over priced. The spar at the top of hill (if heading towards playa de englis) is better priced - it is about a mile to walk. There is better choice and better prices in playa de englis (bigger spar and hyperdino at the shopping centres), but you would really need to use the accommodation bus or get a taxi, as it is a couple of miles. It is a 1 1/4 miles to the beach, which is truly beautiful, and easily walked, but the hotel provides several free buses too. An excellent location if you want to run, it feels safe, and you can run/walk a loop along the beach to playa de englis and back via the town. The area surrounding the apartments is very quiet and peaceful, no bars or loud music. You can watch the football at a couple of bars at Faro 2, or you can walk to the beach front at melonares (1 1/4 miles) where there are several bars and restaurants. We would definitely return.
Great Value
WandererCornwall , Cornwall
Picked this place last minute, and certainly wasn't disappointed, everything clean and tidy, apartments had all the basics needed, staff very helpful, can't comment on the food or bar as we didn't use them. Bus to beach good, taxis not expensive, all in all a very relaxing holiday, would definitely return
Excellent Budget Complex
Captain_Coyote, Cumbria, England
Having read other reviews on here we asked in advance (via Tripadvisor) for a room facing the Golf Course. This gave us the quieter spot we wanted. The complex is well spaced out with large pool areas and everywhere was spotless. The rooms appeared to have been recently refurbished, again everything was spotless, and there was plenty of room for everything. We managed fairly well just using the room ceiling fan. To have hired the A/C would have put the holiday into another price bracket and we would have considered elsewhere. We bought the meal vouchers for every day and thought the meals were very good or the price there was always a wide range of things to eat. We upgraded to the meals plus (which includes drinks with the meals) though in hindsight we thought it was not worth it, better having just the meals only vouchers We went to the beach in Maspalomas rather than the pools at the complex, we noticed that the returning bus sometimes left a few minutes early. We walked it a few times 22 minutes from the pick-up point to the hotel reception. All staff in the reception, restaurant, and cleaning staff were all very friendly and helpful. We would certainly consider staying here again.
Return visit
ATII, England
his place is becoming a home from home. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. gardens, pool and apartments are kept clean and the whole complex feels safe. Great location near Maspalomas beach and in a nice quiet area but not too far from the supermarket (there is a well stocked shop onsite too). Looking forward to visiting again in October 2013.
JANEEpsom, EPSOM
My husband and I have just returned from Gran Canaria. We had a great bungalow 109 opposite the swimming pool. Everything was clean and tidy. The bungalow very comfortable . Within the last year I had joined Club Cordial, which gave us 10% off all meals and drinks in the restaurant. We also received a lovely bowl of fruit and baseball caps.The service we received from all the staff was excellent. Sadly this year the weather was not as good, very windy most days and we had some rain. However this is a great place to stay so much so we have already booked for next September.... cannot wait.......
Estancia inmejorable
Es un lugar muy tranquilo, en el que puedes viajar en pareja o con niños. La zona de la piscina increible, con los jardines muy bien cuidados y el personal muy amable y educado. Sin duda, un lugar para volver!
What a place
readoaklands1, Londres, Reino Unido
We have just returned after spending a week at Green golf bungalows, what can we say that has not been said before, the bungalows were great very clean and cleaned regularly, the food we were half board and mainly had breakfast and dinner both times food was terrific, great deal of choice all well cooked, staff very friendly a real great place to chill out we had bungalow overlooking 18 green would certainly visit again if not here another Cordial property. Would like to thank the couple who we're staying in bungalow 109 around the pool, we met them at the stop for the free bus to Maspolamas , they gave us so many tips on the area as they had been a number of times to Green Golf, unfortunately we did not have time to say thanks and good bye maybe we will see you again who knows but many thanks. This was one of the best holidays we have had, if you want a rave this is not the place for you but if you just want to chill it's great.
Excellent Holiday
DEW1947, Málaga, España
My wife and I returned home yesterday after a weeks holiday at Cordial Green golf resort. The staff were absolutely brilliant and very helpful,the bungalow was spotless, there was a buffet breakfast and dinner with something for every one, Isreal, the catering manager came round at almost every meal to see that we were satisfied with the food,My wife has a lactose intollerance and he offered straight away to prepare a seperate meal for her,which wasn´t in fact needed as there was plenty of choice.We will definitely return there for another holiday. ,our bungalow was situated directly in front of the swimming pool.A free shuttle bus service is provided to take you to either Maspalomas or Playa del Ingles beaches,all in all great value for money.The one thing that would in my opnion improve the bungalows would be air conditioning,there are ceiling fans but air conditioning would be much better.I reaad some reviews before we booked that were not very favourable,however just ignore any bad reiews and see for yourself.
superb complex
Andy F, Glenrothes, Scotland, United Kingdom
superb complex, swimming pools excellent, staff couldn't do enough for you. The main swimming pool can be very busy,where we were it was just right.the pool is very big and not overcrowded, plenty of room to swim and have fun with the family. Accomodation is clean, spacious and fit for our needs. Ceiling fans help cool the bungalows.
Spotlessly clean, stayed before & very pleasant staff.
Bungalows are cleaned daily. Clean towels when needed. Beds made and changed every few days. Free bus to the the beach is a bonus. Taxi fair only 3-4 euros to Melonaras. Food Fine if eating in or all inclusive. Limited choice if eating out within walking distance. If you're willing to pay the small taxi fare the ample choice in upmarket Malonaras more commercial Playa De Ingles. Great value for money. You won't be disappointed.
Super vakantie
Heidiheideroosje, Lochristi, Oost-Vlaanderen, Belgium
Wij gingen hier op vakantie van 23 tot 30 augustus 2013 met een gezin van 4 personen (2 volwassenen en 2 kinderen: 6 en 8 jaar). Het was onze beste vakantie ooit. Mooi bewaakt domein, met mooie bungalows (wij hadden er 1 die uitkeek op de golf met 2 slaapkamers nr 169) met ventilators aan de plafond en aircotoestellen die automatisch aangingen en uit van zodra de deur dicht of openging. Mooi opgemaakte bedden door de house keeping. mooie zwembaden met verschillende dieptes waar wij elke dag in vertoefd hebben. mooie bloemen overal, bougain villa aan de huisjes en hibiscushagen. lekker eten in buffetvorm, zeer uitgebreid, zowel voor het ontbijt, de lunch en het diner (wij hadden volpension met dranken inbegrepen bij de maaltijden) dit hadden wij geboekt bij Neckermann. heel vriendelijk personeel en zeer kindvriendelijk. wij hebben mooie uitstapjes gedaan in de vm, naar Maspalomas strand en duinen, playa del ingles met de gratis shutle service van het hotel. ook namen wij het openbaar vervoer naar Puerto Mogan en het Palmitos park (echt de moeite voor een hele dag met 4 shows). wij deden ook een uitstap met bus naar puerto rico om dolfijnen en walvissen te spotten (spirit of the sea). en het mooie weer natuurlijk niet te vergeten (tussen 27 en 40 graden). in de nm verbleven wij aan het zwembad.
Fab weeks holiday
KianneK, Cork, Irlanda
3 of us went here in early August self-catering and were really seriously impressed with the Green Golf. Had emailed a few weeks earlier asking for an apartment by the quiet pool and indeed we got it - No. 97. Very spacious, spotlessly clean and it's lovely to have the bedroom upstairs. The couch doubled as the 3rd bed downstairs. It was very hot the week we were there, but the ceiling fan really helped. Unfortunately there is no air conditioning in the apartments by the pool. Put the ceiling fan on '1' for very fast as we had assumed the first night that '3' was for that setting. We ate lunch in the bar twice and it was okay. Didn't have evening meals there so can't comment on those. Staff were very friendly and it's a pity that they don't have air-conditioning in the bar. There are a few cats around the place but they don't bother you unless you invite them into your apartment! Some of the apartments facing the road don't get direct sunlight which can be a pity when sitting outside on your little terrace. However, it's probably a bit cooler in those apartments. We walked into Playa del Ingles the first night but like many of the reviewers on this site, we just got taxis everywhere we went as they were cheap - between 3.50 and 4.00 and it really was too warm to walk. If you're thinking of going to Mogan (like little Venice) then get the public bus - it just costs 4.10 each for about a half hour trip. (Thomas Cook were charging 45 per person for a half-day trip there!) The Market is on Fridays but if you want to see the beauty of Mogan itself, then go another day as all of the market stalls block the entire view of the place. If you want to get to a cheaper supermarket then get a taxi to San Fernando and go into the Bellavista Shopping Centre. We didn't like the Yumbo Centre - it was too tacky for our liking. The Kasbah is mainly food and bars with some small shopping there. The Irish Bar on the beach in Playa del Ingles is great fun with music there every night - you can't beat the Irish, the music and atmosphere, the music just draws everyone in. Meloneras is well worth a taxi ride, again for less than 4. It's like Nice in France with the Promenade, some beautiful restaurants and designer shopping. Next door to the Green Golf is the Maspalomas Golf Club - you don't have to be a member to go in so go in and have lunch, lovely change of scenery and lovely food. We had a late flight on the day of our departure but couldn't get to stay in our apartment as the place was fully booked. However, the Green Golf provides an apartment where you can go shower and change mid-afternoon if you wish. Plenty of fresh towels are available. The staff in the Green Golf were just super, place so so clean, the quiet pool suited us just perfectly and we couldn't recommend this place highly enough. Really looking forward to heading back there again.
Amazing place
Jennybp17 , Dublín, Irlanda
Love this place. Stayed for a week in May and then nearly three weeks in August. The accomodation is lovely,perfect size with all you need in place for catering if that took your fancy, we had a very nice cleaning lady who offered to clean every single day and changed towels every single day if we wished.The pools are lovely, the food excellent and the staff are second to none. We were welcomed back with open arms by both Ruben and Kitty, both a credit to the company.The kids club was great and the entertainment every evening great too, can become a little repetitive after nearly 3 weeks but for 2 weeks was just fine. The only thing I would change would be the air conditioning, as it was in the 40's some days and a fan just doesnt quite cut it! Unfortunately our daughter got an ear infection so we couldnt travel back and had to stay longer and the staff at reception were just brilliant. They worked it out that we got to stay in the same house so no stress to move everything. We will definitely be back next year and cant wait!
Fantasic Holiday
MonAlBigTrip , Teignmouth, Reino Unido
Spent a week here with girlfriends in May. Bungalows are superb and the pool fantastic. Word of advice buy a lilo to use on the sunbeds as it makes it more comfortable. Being situated just out of the centre of town means no noise so a relaxing time. Resort staff fantastic. Beach is great fun but be warned alot of it is nudist. Had such a lovely relaxing time going back in October
Stunning Place
Sal90 , County Durham
Our family of 6 stayed at Green Golf in mid July and had a lovely, relaxing & peaceful week. From walking through reception on the day of arrival to ending our holiday we were very happy with the service we received from the staff on the reception desk to the cleaners. Our rooms (74, 75 & 76) faced onto the golf course and were absolutely perfectly for positioned for us as we had lovely views and if we felt we needed a break from the sun we had shade on the patio for most of the day. The bungalows themselves were fantastic and well equipped for self-catering, cleaned every day apart from one day throughout the week and the cleaners leave them absolutely spotless for you. The pool was kept absolutely pristine, we have never stayed anywhere like it for cleanliness which makes a huge difference to your holiday. The only gripe I would have about the complex is that they need to invest in some sun loungers that you can adjust and also some parasols. A visit to the Steakhouse at Faro II is a must, we ate there for 4 nights during our stay, the food was absolutely beautiful, service was fantastic and very reasonably priced (80 euros for 6 main meals with 2 drinks each). The free bus service to Maspalomas beach was a blessing which we used a couple of times, the beach was beautiful but quite expensive to purchase water etc.. (£6 for 2 small bottles of water) so strongly advise you buy your drinks at the supermarket....dont get stung like we did! Overall a lovely peaceful holiday and would definitely return to Green Golf.

Just came back from here and it is very lovely, you could not fault it. Staff are lovely, cleaners come in everyday (if you want them to that is) and food is lovely. Even get a free bus to either playa del ingles or to the beach. Loved it.
Excelente y tranquilidad absoluta

Desde que conocí cordial Green Golf, no los cambio para nada, increíble el trato del personal, la tranquilidad, limpieza absoluta, comida exquisita, entretenimiento muy variable, la piscina porque ni os cuento.... lo mejor de lo mejor, mejor dicho, las piscinas!!! Yo tengo pánico a las cucas y ni duermo por lo mismo en Maspalomas... pues en Cordial Green Golf!!! Ni las Ves!!! Duermo a piernas sueltas!!! Os lo recomiendo a todos (eso si, si van a molestar, abstenerse)... De verdad os lo digo.... precio - calidad.... yo... LO PAGO.
Stunning complex, great price!
suzie r , Durham, Reino Unido
Just returned from 2 weeks self catering at the Green Golf. Absolutly fantastic. One of the cleanest, nicest looking complexes we have stayed in with gorgeous pools and garden areas. Rooms were great, with an upstairs and downstairs which was nice, and we had both a balcony and a terrace, views were lovely and it was cleaned 5 days a week. The complex is based in a quiet area with only a handful of shops/restraunts around. It is right next to the Maspalomas golf course which was absolutly beautiful. We are not golfers but the scenary was almost breath taking the place was a pleasure to sit in for a drink and the food was lovely. The hotel puts a free bus on to Maspalomas beach or Playa Del Ingles which is only a short ride away. We went into town most nights and taxis were only a few euro for the Yumbo or Kasbah Centres etc...or the newer area of Melanores. So close to the hussle and bustle yet when you return at night the place was so quiet, i loved it! One minor complaint was the price of the drinks at the bar, thats why we only went in twice, 6euro for 2 beers and 9.50euro for 2 brandy and cokes, oouch!!! All in all, a great place to stay and we will definately return!

Las mejores vacaciones que hemos pasado en familia.Mi hijo se lo pasó en grande.Los bungalows son de lo mejorcito que he visto y he estado del sur.Poder destacar la amabilidad del personal de recepción,sobre todo de Dª Juani y de DºJacinto.Las piscinas son excepcionales(sobre todo la principal).Los bungalows son muy acogedores,la cocina esta completamente equipada(más accesorios que en ningún otro bungalow),el baño amplio con su plato de ducha,y la habitación con ventilador de techo, muy acogedora en la planta alta.A pesar de que no estan cerca de la playa,hay una guagua totalmente gratuita que te lleva.Sinceramente,las mejores vacaciones,nos quedamos once dias.El año que viene vamos a repetir(más días)."MAGNÏFICOS",se los recomiendo a todo el mundo.

Emma W , Sheffield, Reino Unido
4 of us stayed in 2 seperate apartments in July for a week and I can not recommend it enough. The apartments are cleaned daily, they are very spacious and the ones we had (136 & 137) had a lovely view over the golf course and were very quiet. The pools are gorgeous and so clean, and it was quite easy to get a sunbed every day. The staff were lovely, the reception staff especially, they couldn't do enough for you and were always happy to help. The location was ideal for us as we wanted a quiet relaxing holiday, which is exactly what we got. Yes there a little further away from any of the main centres, but we felt that was a good thing as it was only 3.50 euros in a taxi so not expensive but we got the peace and quiet we wanted. We ate in the restaurant a few times and the food was always nice. The staff were friendly and always at hand if you needed anything. All In all I would happily recommend this hotel for anyone that likes to relax by a beautiful pool, have peace and quiet and feel like you have value for money. I can't wait to go back!
Super complex
Barbra H ,
We haves just returned from 2 weeks at the Green Golf & loved it! The complex was very well laid out & maintained. Our bungalow (216) looked out onto the golf course & although the kids playground was in front of us, noise was never an issue. The bungalows are small but comfortable & functional. Ceiling fans did help however, air conditioning would be a big plus. The staff were very friendly, maid service was excellent, restaurant & mini market staff were very helpful & reception dealt with every request that we asked of them. Large safes are available to rent & you also have to rent the remote control for the TV - both require refundable deposits. We were able to arrange a late check out - 6 pm for 25, which was great. Security parole the complex by night ensuring that the no noise after 11 policy is adhered to. Plenty of sun beds by the pool, however we had one in the little garden outside the bungalow. Free Wifi is available in the main bar/restaurant area - codes available from reception. There are activities during the day, however we did not avail of these, I did see a yoga class being held by the pool. Kids club runs for an hour & a quarter (11.00-12.15), mini disco (8-9) & family entertainment - parrot show, flamenco etc (9-10) - no entertainment on a Sunday. There is also the option to try out scuba diving in the pool (additional cost). The Faro2 shopping centre is near by with a small selection of shops & restaurants, however it seems quite run down. There is a flea market held here on a Sunday which is well worth checking out. The closest large shopping centre is the Yumbo (Playa Del Ingles) about 30 mins walk or approx 3.50 by taxi - plenty of shops & restaurants - fine during the day but a bit seedy by night. Faro (the lighthouse) is about 30 mins walk in the opposite direction (follow the dry river bed) - again about 3.50 by taxi. This brings you to the 4 star Boulevard de Faro with plenty of restaurants & the Varadero shopping centre. Watching the sun set while enjoying a meal or a drink is a must. I would highly recommend this complex for anyone looking to chill out & get away from it all!
Loved it. Would go back
Jo-Jo322 , Londres, Reino Unido
Great place. Weather fab. Bungalow was great. We were self catering and cooked a couple of nights. 2 hob, toaster, kettle, coffee pot, pots pans etc so enough to cook with. Fridge with little freezer bit which did the job for ice cubes!!! Had lunch once in bar which was nice. 2 huge pools, lots of sun beds available. People were still in pool at 9pm! Free bus to beach or playa del ingles. Went beach couple times. Was 7.50 euro for 2 beds and umbrella. Shop stocked ok but Faro 2 much better choice and only 5 min walk away. At Faro 2 we ate at El Nubelo as someone on here recommended which was lovely. Went in to playa twice - walked first time to Yumbo centre took about 20-30 min stroll - lots bars and restaurants. Melonares is lovely (lighthouse) there are lots of bars and restaurants worth visiting. Again 20-30 min stroll. We had cocktails at K1 - lush. Wanted to eat in the Italian (grande Italian I think it was called) but was busy and queuing! So ate next door. Went over golf club for breakfast one morning on a recommendation from on here and it was lovely. Couple next to us said to eat at bamboo garden (Chinese) which again was very nice and reasonably priced and just down from golf club. Taxis were 4-5 euro to playa or melonares. Felt safe walking around day or night. Back to green golf - staff all friendly especially the gentleman on reception when we arrived and next couple of nights when we popped in - didn't get his name but was so lovely and great sense of humour. Pool was cleaned every morning. Maids 6 days out of 7. Safe was 13 euro and 10 euro deposit which get back at the end if stay. Bathroom clean. Sat on patio or bungalow every night gone midnight - wasn't bitten once - result!!!! A no noise after 11 policy and all adhered to it. Stayed 1 week 14th - 21st July - 2 women ***Only thing for green golf to improve - needs air con in rooms and adjustable sunbeds!!!*** Would consider staying again as easy to get around and complex nice
Excellent value!!

Just got back from a weeks stay at Green golf! Had a fabulous week, perfect location and amazing value for money. The bungalow had plenty of room and everything you needed for a comfortable stay except a hairdryer!

One of the Very Best
AndyandSandra11 , Derby, Reino Unido
We stayed for one week on our first ever trip to Gran Canaria and could not have picked a better place to stay ,we wanted peace, quiet & relaxation and that's what we got, our apartment was on the outer perimeter, facing the beautifully tended golf course and we had the sun on the patio in the afternoon ,the apartment was perfectly clean & comfortable with plenty of space & comfort. we loved the upstairs,downstairs effect ,most unusual for holiday accomadation. The staff we more than helpful whenever needed and very friendly ,the appartments on the inner ring face the swimming pools so are busier during the day ,there are 2 super swimming pools to choose from, overall we would say this is one of the very best places that we have ever stopped at and will recommend to friends and definitely visit again
Lovely place, very clean with quiet location just a 3 euro taxi to beaches, restaurants/bars and shopping centres!
sammyb142 ,
Stayed here for 9 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. Lovely clean apartments, stunning pool and a nice snack bar. Close enough to attractions but far enough to be peaceful. If you stay here we recommend going to a restaurant called columbus at playa del ingles beachfront, extremely friendly staff, very welcoming and the food is incredible for taste, value and quantity! We certainly dont think that cordial green golf should be a 2 star as this resort was better than most 4 star hotels we have been to! You won't be disappointed! Enjoy!
Fabulous Green Golf
EnglandBracket , Nottingham, Reino Unido
This holiday was booked very last minute (the day before) and we were pleasantly surprised, as we didn't have time to check out all reviews. The complex is fantastic lovely and clean, swimming pools are cleaned each morning and so are the bungalows, the staff work very hard to keep the hotel and grounds clean and tidy at all times, both pools are fantastic. The food was very good and there was always plenty of choice, had trouble some nights to pick what to eat as there was so much to choose from. The bar menu at lunch time was very good and very reasonable, the staff are so helpful even when we tried to order two lots of chips to have with our sandwiches they wouldn't let us saying there would be enough for two, and there was so they saved us some money, well done to them for putting the guests first. If i was to have a complaint it would be that there isn't a bath in the apartments (that's just me I love a bath) but the showers are great. All in all this is a great holiday destination and we will most certainly be going back, carn't wait.

Just back from an absolutely fabulous week here with my wife and 3 kids.The 2 bedroom bungalows seem to be located around the main pool. We stayed in number 129 and I could not have hand-picked a better bungalow. It was right beside the pool, reception and the hotel shop which was reasonably priced. There was 1 lady working in the shop that was a little bit cranky as other posters have pointed out but it was usually a man working there and he was always cheerful.We only had light snacks in the restaurant and it was grand.The pools are some of the best I've ever witnessed and the grounds are fantastic, people constantly cleaning around you. At night you have security patrolling the grounds which makes it feel so safe. It cost about 4 euro for a taxi to the main resorts. I would not hesitate to go back here again. A real pleasant experience. My only word of warning, do not and I repeat do not buy refreshments in the waterpark. They do not display prices and I got charged 41 euro for 4 pints of beer and 3 Cokes, 8 euro a pint, all in plastic cups but that has nothing to do with the majestic Cordial Green Golf.
Maspalomas Gay Pride Excellent Accommodation
CASPER12345 , Stirling, Reino Unido
I have been visiting Gran Canaria for a few years now. I go for the full month of May so it is nice to get accommodation that offers everything I need. Cordial green golf bungalows is the only accommodation on the island that I have repeatedly gone back to for four years in a row and I will go again in 2014. Accommodation comprises of a duplex bungalow that sleeps two upstairs and one downstairs. There is an outdoor terrace downstairs and a balcony. The staff are all very friendly and nothing seems a problem to them. I walked to the yumbo in 20 mins. No need for cabs but very reasonable rates if you use them.
mikes1956 , Oxford, Reino Unido
Cordial Green Golf is a terrific place to stay. The apartments are clean and well appointed with daily maid service. Two pools, the large one has just been totally refurbished. The restaurant offers buffet meals at 12 euros or al a carte menus. Drinks at the bar are affordable and they have a great selection. There is a mini market on site which stocks all the basics and more at reasonable prices. Regular entertainment and extremely friendly staff. The site is extensively planted with trees, shrubs and flowers and seems more a small village than a hotel. Best of all, the Green Golf is also home to an assortment of very friendly cats. I was adopted by one for the stay. The hotel offers a free bus service to Maspalomas on a regular timetable. A definite plus. Location. 10 minute walk from Faro shopping centre which is now a bit run down as it awaits redevelopment but offers an atm, supermarket and excellent restaurants. I recommend El Torro II for excellent meals and service. 20 minute walk takes you to Maspalomas and is worth the walk. A taxi is 3 euros. I cannot recommend Cordial Green Golf highly enough. This was my second stay and I'll definitely be going back.

Returning Happy Customer

This was my third visit to Green Golf. Feb12 I booked it through lowcost holidays it was our first ever sun holiday so needlesstosay I was so impressed I returned in June with three of our children. I'm just back from a ten day stay with my husband. First of all I find the area very safe you can head off for a walk 10pm at night and yet feel so safe. We walked everywhere (even though the hotel puts on a free bus to beach and playa del ingles) the location is excellent for the beach and playa del ingles. The apartments are very clean, cleaners in every day. We cooked our selves and we had all the utensils we needed in a kitchen. Staff very friendly. The weather is unbelievable and the sand dunes its like heaven. I'd highly recommend this hotel to any looking for a nice safe, quiet and relaxing break.
Estancia perfecta
MJMATAM , Santiago de Compostela, España
Estuvimos una semana alojados en el complejo, y puedo decir que nuestra estancia fue perfecta. Destacaría la atención, simpatía y amabilidad de todo el personal, desde la gente de recepción, camareros, personal de limpieza, de mantenimiento y animación. Además, el parque infantil y las actividades de animación fueron una delicia para nuestra pequeña de dos años. Estábamos con régimen de media pensión, y la calidad y variedad de la comida era excelente. El complejo está formado por unos acojedores bungalows, que sin grandes lujos, sí tienen todo lo necesario para pasar unas vacaciones y se encuentran en perfecto estado. En concreto el nuestro estaba frente a una de las piscinas, con la comodidad que ello supone cuando decidíamos quedar a pasar una jornada en el hotel. Como decía al principio, ha sido una semana en la estuvimos realmente cómodos y repetiría sin dudarlo.
Looking forward to returning to Cordial Green Golf
Smalltownboys , Norfolk, United Kingdom
Desperate to get away my partner and I booked a holiday to Gran Canaria and stayed at the Green Golf. As regular visitors to the island we have stayed in many different complexes over the last twenty years and this was our first time at Green Golf. The complex is very large when you look at the layout plan of the apartments, however the clever layout of the accommodation makes it feel like several smaller complexes linked by the fabulous pools that run the length of the complex. The apartments are clean and well thought out. A small kitchenette has the usual equipment and in addition has a coffee machine and toaster, which in other centres are usually only provided for an additional fee. For two people the apartment is great and although they can accommodate three people by using the sofa bed in the lounge area it would be a bit on the small side for our personal like. Housekeeping is daily for bins, floors etc, linen changed mid-week and towels nearly everyday. The grounds are beautifully managed and really do look like the pictures in the brochures. Entrance to the apartments is through a locked gate and at night the grounds are regularly checked by a night security guard. There is a small on-site shop that has a good range of products for those that choose to go self catering. A larger shop is about 10 minutes walk in the C.C. Faro II. There is a regular courtesy bus to Maspalomas Beach or Playa Del Ingles, although taxis are very reasonably priced. The reception staff were friendly and helpful when we had small snag (nothing to do with Green Golf, it was something to do with our tour operator). We were so impressed with our experience that we plan to go back later this year. We highly recommend this as a place to stay.
Bungalows con vistas al campo de golf
mayann81, Madrid, España
Nos alojamos la semana pasada, una pareja española. El entorno es muy tranquilo y bonito con jardines. Tuvimos bungalow con vistas al campo de golf, muy silencioso, se ve jugar y pasar los buggies. Tengo entendido que hacen descuento para alojados creo que un 10%, pero como no llevaba palos no jugué. Servicio amable, llegamos tarde y la recepción estaba abierta. Además tienen supermercado alli mismo, aunque un poco más caro de lo normal. Dos piscinas espectaculares, lo mejor del complejo, decoradas con puentes, estrechas pero largas, que daban ganas de quedarse allí, en vez de ir a la playa. Con zona infantil de baño. Butacas vi de sobra, debe ser algo que han solucionado. Con bar, mesa de ping pong para echar una partida, diana de dardos y billares en la piscina. Hubo un día que hicieron noche de barbacoa y te podías apuntar. Cocina americana perfectamente equipada para cocinar a excepción de microondas. El Baño se notaba nuevo, con luz natural, con agua caliente y buena presión, lo único que salpicaba mucho la ducha y no había secador. Ni rastro de bichos que había leído en opiniones. Al contrario, muy limpio, pasaban todos los días a limpiar, hasta me parecía excesivo jeje. Nos tocó ola de calor en las islas pero ni aún así necesitamos usar el aire acondicionado ni los ventiladores de techo. Ideal ubicación para tener coche alquilado: aparcaba en la puerta todos los días y estaba a 5 minutos del Faro y las dunas y de la playa del Inglés, según me apeteciera. Había un autocar del hotel para ir a la playa, parada de taxis en la puerta y cerca vi que alquilaban bicicletas también. Al bungalow solo le pongo una pega: las camas pueden mejorarse, y la tv de pago, pero eso casi lo agradezco.. Por lo demás, me apunto a repetir. El último día además de guardarnos las maletas, tuvieron el detalle de dejarnos un cuarto de cortesía para cambiarnos, pues habiamos pasado la mañana en el complejo.
Every years I spend 2 weeks over there. Nothing fancy about this place but it's quiet, clean and staff are very friendly, helpful. I recommend this place mainly for couples who don't want to be surrounding by children. Although, the location is great between playa del ingles and meloneras (only 5 minutes by taxi). Go there and you will spend great holidays with no trouble.
What a Lovely Place to Relax in the Sun
MrGentle, Cheltenham, Reino Unido
What a lovely place to relax in the sun - We booked accommodation only but on arrival at reception, we purchased tickets for breakfast and found a very good choice awaiting us every day. During our stay we had the buffet style evening meal on two evenings and found the choices excellent. The apartments are ideal for small groups or couples with twin beds upstairs and single sofa bed in the lounge - The small kitchen area was alright for our needs but we did miss our electric kettle, the kettle provided needed to sit on the electric hob for an age before boiling. The place is well laid out with a lovely swimming pool and loads of loungers and areas to soak up the sun (use plenty of sun cream). Golfers, there is an excellent golf club next door. Non golfers you will be in the majority of people staying at Cordial Green Golf (the name golf included in the name is because of the area it is located ie; next to the golf club). The sea front is about a mile away - a nice gentle stroll in the sun and you are soon there - the beach areas vary as you stroll along the beach (can get windy at times) - from Maspalomas light house you first have family and bathing costume areas and then into mostly nude areas. Some evenings we went out to another holiday place 'Vista Flora' where there was excellent cabaret for the price of a meal. Overall I would recommend Cordial Green Golf - But a tip - try and book accommodation facing into the complex and avoid accommodation facing the road.
Easter break second time here!!!
ManchesterLynn, Manchester
Just spent 10 nights at the green golf apartments which are lovely set in well kept gardens with beautiful flowers growing around each apartment, each apartment as an upstairs and downstairs, living area downstairs with sofa bed two fabulous pools, plenty of sun loungers and nobody reserving beds at the crack of dawn like other hotels we have visited, we went halfboard and enjoyed the food, always plenty to choose from and the waiters and bar staff were very attentive as was reception very helpful. This complex is great for a really relaxing holiday, entertainment was okay although I think more for little ones, not the place to go if your party animal into late nights, as I'm not quite a party animal anymore more an early night early swim kind it was the perfect choice for me really relaxing and weather was fabulous 27degrees!!!!!
We return again and again and again......
Ali H, Watford, United Kingdom
We have been here so many times that I could not tell you how many. We usually visit Green Golf for our 'short haul quick getaway'. It just makes a nice change from the long flights of our other annual holidays. The flight is only 4.5 hours from London. We have recently started taking our 6 year old niece (started when she was 4) and she loves it. The staff are friendly and always remember us. We always get the bungalow we ask for (right around the unheated pool) and even get two together if our niece and mother-in-law come with us. There are two pools, both quite big. The one near the main building is heated and mainly used by families as the pool has shallower areas. We prefer the other pool as it is quieter (which is why use a bungalow next to it). The bungalows are big enough for two or two and a child. They have all the equipment that you need for your whole stay. The grounds are immaculate and constantly maintained, as are the pools. We haven't ever eaten in the restaurant, apart from sometimes buying chips to takeaway, but I have heard good things about the food. The entertainment isn't the best, but the little one enjoyed it, especially the snake show. Free transport to the beach is provided by the hotel, we have never used it as we prefer to walk. If you do walk then you can take the short cut across the dunes, but be aware if you are easily offended then there are lots of nudists (mainly men) in the middle of the dunes. Hints: Shopping If you hire a car, then go to the Carrefour supermarket which is just off the GC-1 motorway, you can visit it on your way to the resort from the airport if you land at a reasonable time. They offer everything you need at a much cheaper price. If you don't have a car then jump in a taxi and visit the Hipodino supermarket in the Bellavista shopping centre, this is much cheaper than other supermarkets as it is mainly used by locals. If you just want to buy basics, then give the Green Golf supermarket a miss and walk over to Faro 2 (5 minute walk) and use the supermarket located downstairs, it has a better choice and is much cheaper. Duty free Fund Grube are very good, look out for their many offers that vary from store to store, you will also be able to pick up coupons from leaflets. Dining We tend to stay in one night then dine out the next and so on and so on. We love to eat at Meloneras, but it is more expensive than Playa del Ingles and Maspalomas. You should definitely visit Capricho Restaurant in the Yumbo Centre. The food is great and reasonably priced. We always eat here at least once per visit. Accommodation You can email Cordial and request a specific bungalow before you go. We always do this and get the bungalow we want. Feel free to ask any questions. Enjoy
Great Place for a self Catering Holiday
Ricky503, Londres, Reino Unido
I recently stayed on a self catering basis at this resort and found the accommodation good and clean with a frequent maid service. There were two outside pools, one of which although not a traditional shape, had a swimming length of 74 meters and it WAS HEATED! For someone who loves swimming I was in heaven! My first swim was round 07.30 -08.00 in the morning and I was invariably on my own. A fresh coffeemaker was a welcome addition in the apartment which was well appointed,clean with good basic facilities. The on site Supermarket was a little pricey but there was a large supermarket nearby. Great place to sit, in the sun and by a good pool and catch up with some reading. It was also about a 20 min walk from the main nightlife area of Playa de Ingles but nice and quiet as well.
Great place to stay
GandL186258, Plymouth, Reino Unido
We stayed at green golf for 4weeks in February 2013 we stayed self catering and found that facilities have every thing we needed. Nice quiet place even with children there.Bungalows are cleaned every day bar Sundays. Well placed for exploring the area near to beach and town.the complex is kept very clean and the pools are excellent
Excellent accommodation for a reasonable price
Barchie, Edimburgo, Reino Unido
we stayed her for one week in Oct 2011. The accommodation, was cleaned most days to a good standard - no complaints. Kitchen well equipped for this type of accommodation. Surprised to find a tin opener and bottle opener, even had a kettle. Great to see no ugly high rise buildings, the area gives the impresssion of a residential area. 10 minute walk to local supermarket and a couple of restaurants. Further afield about a 30 minute stroll in takes you to Melanores with its designer shops and good variety of restaurants/coffee shops. Taxis cheap around 3 - 4 to either Melanores or Playa de Ingles. Would give the latter a miss though very run down, probably the recession impact. Would highly recommend for those looking for a quiet peaceful holiday.
My first holiday!
LauraDoraDumpling , Kenilworth, Reino Unido
This was my first holiday abroad and I loved every minute! I went with a friend and stayed in apartment 16 - facing the road - but I didnt mind as had the stunning views of the mountains in the background. We also sat outside our apartment till the small hours - trying not to make much noise! - There was a security guard that walked past every 20 minutes or so which was great to see. Locked gate in and out of the complex also The staff were wonderful! Very friendly and chatty. We ventured out to the shopping centre 5 minute walk away but found it to be mostly empty! We found some wonderful places to eat here and lived in the Cleopatra bar - wonderful people again! I loved every minute and would go back tomorrow!
Wonderful New Year at Green Golf
AnnmIreland , Ireland
We arrived on New Years Eve and were allocated a lovely clean, quiet bungalow but it was in the shade. The following day we requested a change which we got almost immediately. The staff were friendly, efficient and extremely approachable . We were invited to the New Year's Eve banquet (despite the fact that we were self catering) which was a wonderful night. We were treated to free food, wine, party bag and champagne - a bottle !! It was a most amazingly generous gesture and I want to thank everyone at Green Golf who made it possible. All in all we had a very enjoyable break- Maspalomas is beautiful and the weather was getting nicer by the day. W would love to stay in No. 4 again!!!

Excellent time at Green Golf Bungalows for New Year. Also changed rooms after first night but no problemo to friendly and helpful gentleman at reception. Apartments are small but very clean (thank you Fane our lovely maid). All staff were very friendly and the New Year Gala Night was superb - a great credit to all staff involved. Have not been disappointed any time we have stayed here and look forward to our next trip. Many Thanks and a Happy New Year to all staff at Green Golf
Sauber, gepflegt, für den Preis super!
Sascha K , Colonia, Alemania
Unser doppelstöckiges Apartment war einfach aber sauber. Es hat an nichts gefehlt, selbst an ein Spülset wurde gedacht. Handtuchwechsel alle 2 Tage incl. Putzen. Die kleine Küche bot Kühlschrank, Kaffeemaschine, 2 Kochplatten, ausreichend Geschirr und Besteck. Mietsafe und Fernseher konnten beim äussert freundlichen Personal gemietet werden. Wir hatten ein ruhiges Apartment direkt gegenüber vom Golfplatz. Die Anlage wurde sehr gut gepflegt, vom Pool bis zu den Gartenanlagen. Zu den Animationszeiten waren wir nie vor Ort, gehen aber davon aus, daß diese nicht besonders lange liefen, haben uns also nie beeinträchtigt gefühlt. Es gab einen kleinen Supermarkt im Gelände. Parkplatz, kostenlos quasi vor der Tür. Bis Maspalomas, wenige Minuten Laufweg, bis zum Strand oder bis zum Yumbo-Center jeweils etwa 25 Minuten zu Fuß. Einziges aber schweres Manko, eine schwache W-Lan Verbindung - im Apartment gar keine! Alles in allem aber ideal für einen entspannten Aufenthalt.
Very nice place to visit
Nice186259 , Torquay, Reino Unido
Stayed here for a week but wished we booked two .Nice and clean and well placed for a restful holiday.There is a bus to the beach and local shops but you can also go to the Faro shopping centre which is a shot distance to walk.Looking forward to going back again in the near future.
Maspalomas Cordial Green Golf
John W , Kingston-upon-Hull, Reino Unido
What a pleasant surprise! beyond all our expectations for a 3 star property. We have joined their club and will be planning a return visit in either February or March 2013. Accommodation was for self-catering which is limited (sink, two-ring hob, fridge, loads of storage and crockery/cutlery for exactly three people!) but it proved to be an excellent base for our daily travelling. Breakfast on the terrace every morning and an on-site supermarket at very reasonable prices. Our cleaner arrived every days except Sunday and towels were changed when needed (just leave dirty ones on the floor). Bedding was changed every five days. Never used the superb pool (the temptation was there) and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Hugely recommended.
Fabulous Holiday
Susielou21 , Trowbridge, Reino Unido
We stayed for a week in September. Wish we had booked for 2 weeks, didnt want to go home. What a lovely place. 2 very big clean pools. Enjoyed the entertainment. Staff were fantasic, nothing too much trouble. Food excellent something for everyone even if your a fussy eater. We were on full board plus basis. There is a shop on site, very well stocked and reasonably priced. The accommodation was very good, cleaned every day except Thursday. What made it extra special the maid put a flower on the breakfast bar. We took the free bus to the beach, you can walk but a little too far for me. We did walk to Faro 2 which had resturants and a few shops. The supermarket had just about everything. Its my big birthday next September and I'm hoping to go back for 2 possible 3 weeks.
JADLondon , London
This was our third visit and this complex is incredibly well maintained and clean. The accommodation is not luxury, however it is more than adequate and towels are changed most days and beds mid-week. We loved having our own breakfast on the "terrace" amongst the tropical gardens. There is a shop on-site as well as a restaurant where you can have breakfast / lunch or dinner if you pay extra. The prices seemed to be incredibly good value for money. In your "house" you will find a kitchen with 2 ring hob, however there is no oven or microwave. There is a toaster and kettle for the hob as well as a coffee maker. The television only works if you pay extra - we never used it as it is lovely to be outside in the sun. The dunes / beach are a pleasant 15 / 30 minutes walk away, however Green Golf provides a free bus at certain times of the day. Taxi fares are also very reasonable in Maspalomas / Playa des Ingles. If you want the sun on your "terrace" make sure that you request a house which faces South! We highly recommend the Green Golf and look forward to returning in 2014!
GReat place to stay
Henry O , Cork
Excellent complex, accomaditon very good with excellent cleaning service, lovely swimming pool especially the lap pool.the gardens are really lovely and well maintained. The only downside for me was the kitchen cooking facilities, a microwave oven and an electric kettle are essential items and should be included, otherwise excellent.
Great holiday
A must stay if you are looking for clean, friendly accomodation! Perfect setting and only a short walk to the beaches in one direction and a short walk in the other direction to the nightlife and shops. Excellent reception staff who are on call 24hrs! Best holiday ever! Cleaning staff in most days and whole complex kept to a very high standard.
another wonderful holiday at green golf
plymptongirl, plymouth devon
This was the 14th year of stating at Green Golf and it wont be the last.We always go self catering as we like to explore the various places to eat in the evenings.This year we found two new places which were great,Casa Lola at Melonores a lovely Spanish restaurant serving a great paella my friend doesnt like squid so that was left out,in the Kasbah Centre we were taken to the El Chauletto,i had an amazing green pepper steak it was wonderful my friend had lamb cutlets (7 of them) also very good,the food was beautifully presented.We always go to Hypo Dino to get the food needed for lunch and breakfast its about 4 euro in a taxi but the salad stuff and fruit is wonderful.Sparkles at the Yumbo Centre is great a good drag show staff are so friendly,also try Diamonds their cocktails are lovely.Cant wait to return
Good Clean Place to stay
CasperWestMidlands, West Midlands
Just returned from a weeks break at the Cordial Green Golf.Great place to stay for a relaxing break.Bungalows nice and clean and very friendly staff.Stayed half board food was nothing bad nothing brilliant but ok.Never had problems finding something to eat.Only drawback is the distance from the beach and local bars and restaurants but that did not stop us enjoying our stay will go back again.
excellent resort!

We have just returned from our honey moon spent to Cordial Green Golf Maspalomas and it was a great experience and a nice holiday.We were very satisfied by the resort conditions and the cleaning people were doing an excellent job.The reception stuff was very friendly and very helpful in giving directions.The food was excellent and varied and satisfied all the tastes.You can spend the day at the pools of the resort or you can take a bus or a taxi(3 euro)to the Maspalomas Beach or Playa del Ingles.We strongly recommend Playa del Ingles which is a very beautiful beach with a lot of restaurants,cafe-bars,shops and markets.In Maspalomas beach there are stones on the bottom of the ocean,that is not quite comfortable,I wouldnt go there twice.There are a lot of trips that you can do there,just ask to reception for some flyers and you will see all the offers available to Palmitos Park-around 28 euro entrance ticket(a zoo,birds,butterflies,aquarium,botanical garden and dolphins),or Aqualand Maspalomas.The price of a bus ticket was 2.20 euro per person while taking a taxi costs around 17 euros.We went as well to Puerto de Mogan which is called Little Venice,it has a lot of ships,channels and a great variety of restaurants,cafeterias and shops.The price of the bus ticket was 8.30 euro for 2 adults.Didnt go to Playa Amadorres that looks very good and fancy,but had no time to get there.We recommend this place to all tourists who want a clean,peaceful and a relaxing holiday!

We have just returned from Green Golf and it was really brilliant. I e-mailed in advance for a particular bungalow and was allocated it on arrival.Pool area and gardens were up to the usual standard well maintained and clean. The bar and restaurant was great. Staff were always friendly and attentive.This was our eleventh year here and we will be back once again next year. This place is so nice peaceful and relaxing. The supermarket is well stocked if a fews cents more. Heres to 2013!!!!
Fantastic Holiday
LuvHolidaying2, Newry
Just home from Green Golf after a seven night stay. We had a wonderful time and would recommend the complex. Cleanliness was first class - army of cleaners indoors and out. Apartment well equipped and although no air con there were ceiling fans both up and down stairs There are plenty of sunbeds although they have no padding. We bought blow up beds and used these all week - a lot cheaper than other places we've stayed where you had to pay for sunbed each day. We stayed half board and found the food good - extensive salad selections for starters and main courses. Ice cream deserts were lovely. This is a quiet resort with friendly, helpful staff. Free bus in day to both palya de ingles and maspalomas beach. Taxi are very reliable and cheap as an alternative. Would like to visit again - need to start saving
"Great value, lovely staff

Fantastic place to stay, very family friendly. Emailed the hotel a few weeks before we went to request a travel cot for my daughter; when we arrived it was all set up in the bungalow for us. The bungalows were exactly as you see on the photographs here, very colourful resort. The reception staff were brilliant, we went there to check in and out, purchase tickets for local attractions, change money and for advice on other things; they were always happy to help and very friendly. We had a problem with our shower when we first used it and this was fixed the same day. Was very impressed with how clean everywhere was, always maintenance workers and cleaners around to keep on top of the area. We had breakfast every day here, great selection of food for whatever you fancy and delicious. We also ate in the restaurant for evening meal one night which was excellent value for money. We booked self catering but you can purchase vouchers for breakfast/meals from reception on arrival or throughout your stay if you want to. The location was quite central for playa del ingles and maspalomas promenades where there are plenty of restaurants, bars and shops. There is a courtesy bus a few times a day, but we got cabs to most places. Faro 2 is a five minute walk and there are a few bars and restaurants there. This is an ideal place if you want a quiet holiday out of the hustle and bustle of the main tourist areas. Will be staying here again! Thank you to all the staff for making our stay so pleasant.
Just returned from Cordial Green Golf and it was much more than I had expected it to be. The apartment was ideal for my family of 3 and very clean. The pool was fantastic and there was always a sun bed available. The staff were great, very child friendly and always keen to help. The surrounding out side of the complex weren't great but personally that didn't bother me as I spent most of the time in the pool. It would have been nice to have a gym on-site but there were 2 available within a 5 minute walking distance. I would really recommend this complex to anyone with a young family or for those who just want to relax. I've never wanted to visit the same place twice in a row but we are already talking about going back!
erholsames ambiente
Detlef G , Pekín (Beijing), China
nach einem ausführlichen morgendlichen Spaziergang über die Dünen am Strand entlang wartete ein gutes Frühstück auf uns. Das Besondere - immer abwechslungsreich und für jeden etwas dabei. Bemerkenswert die Lage ( Golfplatz sorgt für ruhiges Umfeld ). Freundliches Personal, sehr hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend- gerne wieder dorthin !
Fantastic low cost,self-catering holiday - we're going back in September!

I recently stayed at the Cordial Green Golf Bungalows and cannot fault the place considering how affordable it is. The complex consists of a restaurant, shop and two large free form swimming pools. The pools are surrounded by rows of quaint yellow and orange duplex apartments. The apartments comprise of an open plan living/kitchen area on the ground floor, with bathroom, bedroom and balcony on the first floor. Each apartment also has a small terrace to the front - ideal for sinking a few sangrias! The kitchen is equipped well enough to prepared breakfasts and light bites, although admittedly you would probably struggle to cook an evening meal. The apartments don't have air con but do have ceiling fans to provide relief form the heat. During our stay we found the complex very secure, with locked gates (you get a key) t0 ensure unwanted visitors are kept out, as well as occasional security. During our stay, we were comfortable leaving valuables on show, even when the cleaners were coming in, and nothing was taken. The cleaners did a good job and changed towels most days. The on-site shop is fairly well stocked though the supermarket at Faro 2 shopping centre has a greater variety and is cheaper. Faro 2 is within a 5-10 minute walk though the place is fairly deserted now (i'm told the owner is looking to redevelop the site so has put up rents, forcing most businessess out), though it is worth going their for a big shop. I've also heard the 1 remaining restaurant there is very good. I did see a couple of Cockroaches (literally 2) during my time here, as i have done every time i've been to the Canaries, but didn't see any in the apartment, only outside. There are a few friendly residents cats on site (again, never entered my apartment) and i think they may help out on the pest control front. The hotel is about a 25 minute walk from Maspalomas Beach and the upmarket shops of Melenoras, and about the same to Playa Del Ingles, though the hotel runs a free shuttle bus service regularly to both areas throughout the day, and a taxi to either is only 3-4 Euros. Melenoras has lots of high end hops and restaurants, though we did have a bad experience at SushiMex (a Sushi/Mexican fusion), where we complained about a meal and didn't get offered an alternative, a refund or even an apology - I would avoid this place. We ate a few times at a restaurant at the Kas Bar (one of the shopping/nightlife precincts in Playa del Ingles - here you could get a really good meal and then move next door to their sister pub, an Irish bar with great entertainment, and the first round was free! Also worth checking out the Yumbo Centre, another precinct, though be aware that a liberal mind is required as there are a few gay/drag bars. During our trip we visited Sioux City (a wild west replica town with shows and also, bizarrely, a small zoo) on a Friday night. It cost 50 Euros each, with transport there and back, free meal (steak in a strange gravy, rice and vegetables) and a free bar. I enjoyed the venue, shows and bar but not the food. I would have preferred to pay 45 Euro and not have the food, or be able to buy your own their. My advice would be to go, but eat first. At the time the whole experience seemed very expensive but looking back on it now I'm glad we went in the evening. We went to holiday world (a large fun fair with indoor attractions such as 10 pin bowling) which is within a short walk of the hotel, and found it quite expensive - it may be good family entertainment but i imagine that i would cost a fortune to take a couple of kids there for the evening.
NATJDOWNS, Dorchester, Reino Unido
Lovely place to stay! Had apartment 111 which was next to the quiet pool. Great value for money and a very clean place. The food is nice in the restaurant. The only downfall is that there is no kettle,cooker or microwave, but there are two hobs. Pool was cleaned every morning and there was always a sun lounger free. Would 100% recommend!!
Funktionale Bungalows, schöne Anlage,guter Service
Un viajero de Expedia,
Schöne Anlage, basic Zimmeraustattung aber mit allem was man braucht, schöner Pool. Ideal für Familien die Ruhe suchen, mit Kleinkindern und für Reisende die die Insel erkunden wollen und ein Baiscamp brauchen. Zum Selberkochen ganz okay.
Would definitely return
El_Grifo_Seco, Cork, Irlanda
3-10 july. Booked last minute, mainly on price but also had seen good reviews on here. The good reviews all proved very accurate. The bungalows are cute, living room and kitchenette downstairs and bedroom bathroom and balcony upstairs. The whole complex is brightly painted and well kept. Kitchenette adequate with fridge etc. never used hob so didnt matter. Ceiling fans on both floors. Large electronic safe 1/day plus 10 deposit which you get back. Cleaning 5 days, fresh towels daily. Very secure complex, quite busy but never felt crowded. We had room 56 which looked right onto the quieter pool. Some rooms looked onto the main road or the golf course rather than the pool. I would recommend pool view as meant most time we could both be in pool and leave door open. Meant came straight downstairs on morning into pool for swim before breakfast. Pool quite warm and cleaned regularly. Whole complex very clean. Entertainment at night in bar. Didn't eat their food so can't comment. Had breakfast in apartment and ate about rest of time. The complex is just behind the golf course and is clearly visible on google maps. It is 2km to the lighthouse but the curtesy bus runs few times a day. Taxis 3.50 to lighthouse. This complex is one of the closest self catering reasonably priced to the main Maspalomas beach unless you go for the large beachfront hotels. Parking is a bit hectic but you can park at their sister complex over the road, the cordial sandy golf. Mini market on site is very comprehensive but supermarket in Faro 2 centre has better fresh fruit. Majority of guests were Spanish with some German, Scandinavian, British Irish. This complex represents excellent value for money. We would definitely stay here again and are looking at early next year already.
onze tweede "thuis"

Prachtige zwembaden, rustige ligging naast het golfterrein, heel vriendelijk personeel, je eigen bungalow met terrasje, leuke en gezellige animatie door Nellie, een topper!!!!! Wij komen er steeds met heel veel plezier terug, en voelen er ons helemaal thuis!
Brilliant value for money!!
Gabrielle C, Kingston-upon-Hull, Reino Unido
Cordial Green Golf Bungalows is definitely a place worth staying if you have a low budget for the Canaries! All of the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful and fluent in English which makes the small amount of Spanish I know seem rather meager! The reception staff warmly welcomed me and my boyfriend to the complex and explained about the rooms, the minimarket (which is situated on the complex), the pools and the free bus service to both Playa de Ingles and Maspalomas beaches. I must stress, this free bus service is a God send if you are strap for cash, seeing as the walk is nice but extremely hot under the Canarian sun! If we had any questions or requests about excursions or activities, they were more than prepared to organise our requests. They also organised our transfer back to the airport on the day of departure which took a load of stress from my shoulders! The complex itself is very clean and secure, with a gate which is locked into the complex as well as your apartments having a secure lock (both of which you have a key to, so you are free to come and go as you please!). The houses are lovely and colourful, we stayed in the smaller of the apartments and it was just perfect for just the two of us. Fridge, two hobs (although no oven, not sure if the bigger apartments have one), plenty of cupboards and utensils provided, sinks, working shower and toilet, the beds were comfy and both the upstairs and downstairs had a fan which made the heat that little more bearable at night! Most importantly - there were no bugs! There is also a safe which is available to rent, although we didn't use it and none of our stuff was moved or stolen - as I said, nice and secure! The pools are lovely and cool for the dry heat of the day and there is a mass of sun loungers available all around both of the two huge pools! They are also lovely and clean! There is a shopping centre 10 minutes walk away which has a bigger supermarket which we used more than the minimarket for bulk buying as it had more choice. The taxi's are relatively cheap, being only 3euros to Playa de Ingles and 4.50euros to Aqualand (which is an absolute must!!) Safe to say I would visit again!
Cordial Green Golf Apartments
Rebecca K , Haworth, England, United Kingdom
We travelled in June 2012 these apartments are the best we have ever stayed in, we had apartment 121 which is looking out onto the pool, we had two upstairs bedrooms. The attention to detail is fantastic we got a washing up pack on arrival which included washing up liquid, cloth and scourer and a clean tea towel everyday wich is something you dont get or have to beg for. There was four of us in our apartment and I have never had so much wardrobe, drawers and coat hangers. The location is quiet its between Maspalomas Beach Front and Playa des Ingles, there is a great free bus to the beach and the taxi are very cheap. Great british bar just as you go into Playa Das Ingles call British Bull Dog very reasonable and just a nice family bar. There is also a restaurant about 10mins from the apartments in a small shopping centre you go underground sort of has boards on the street and blue ralings at the top this is called La Gomera they also do takeout its really nice and very friendly it can be quiet but dont let this put you off. Will definately go back to the apartments - can't praise them enough.
Amazing resort, definitely stay again
stevexp, Londres, Reino Unido
The resort looks far away from the beach at Maspalomas and also far from Playa des Inglés, but in reality it is only a 20-30 minute walk to both or a 3 taxi ride during the day. Because of the location, it means you're not bothered by noise late at night. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by a friendly man on the desk who provided us with our room key, key for the gate (if coming home after hours), and the key for electricity in the bungalow. We were shown on a map where our bungalow was and we headed there. When we went into the bungalow, we were amazed by how large it was. You could easily live in the accommodation full time if needed as it was like an apartment but on two floors. I have included photos of this with the review. We stayed with the Bed and Breakfast option, which was very good value for money. Each morning there was such a large selection of food one would wonder how they could afford to put out such as spread. There was juice, hot drinks, toast, cooked meats, cheeses, cereal, full English, yoghurt, fruit, and more. All provided in a buffet style so you could keep going back up. We ate well at breakfast and didn't need to eat again until 4 or 5pm each day, which meant we could enjoy our days out without the necessity of having to stop for lunch early on. The prices in the bar are reasonable, with a tankard of Tropical beer costing 3. The onsite supermarket consisted of mainly food and drink, but there were also holiday "novelties" such as inflatables for the pool and health and beauty items for those who didn't remember to pack them. Prices for all of these were reasonable once again. For example, a large bottle of water cost just 50c The only thing which was disappointing at the end of the first day, was to discover the maid service had not cleaned the bungalow. However, upon reading the information card in the room, we think this was because they either cleaned it every other day, or you had to request this. After knowing this, we were happy because we didn't really need the maid to come in every day (it was nice to have the bed made, but we only destroyed this when going to sleep because only a sheet was required due to the heat). We used the pool once, and found it to be very nice. It was a fun experience to swim underneath the bridge where people were crossing. The water wasn't heated, but in the temperatures of Gran Canaria this wasn't a problem as it was refreshing. When we wanted to go into town, we walked to the reception and requested one. They have a call button in reception which was similar to a panic button you may find in a shop. Which means they simply press the button and a taxi is waiting outside within a few minutes. This was excellent, as we didn't have to wait for a phone call to be made or to call in advance to book. If you were to spend more time around the resort area, the kitchen in the bungalow was well equipped to cater for up to four people. This would save money if you were there as a family for example. Overall, I can't find anything about this resort which displeased us during our stay and we will be definitely staying again.

stayed here for a week in june 2012. Very clean. Good food. Very nice freindly staff.
Just what we needed.
lakes, Herts
This is the 4th time we have visited and once again - we couldn't have asked for a better location or standard of accomodation. We find the location wonderful with only a 4 euro taxi ride to Melanoras (lighthouse) and if you are feeling fit - you can walk it - (about 30 mins) The accomodation is clean (exceptionally clean). Daily maid service (cleans all floors, new sheets once a week along with towels) Suggest the number 90 bus to Peurto Rico to catch the glass bottom boat to Peurto Mogan. Its a very pretty place and a lovely day out. Suggest Grand Italia for dinner at the lighthouse. Expensive but worth every penny. (average cost for three people for two courses, one sangria and two soft drinks around 80 euros) The meals are always exceptional and well presented and the sea view as you dine is wonderful. Surprisingly - resort very quiet (expected it to be filled with children and families due to school holidays) plenty of beds, space and sun! This wasn't our first visit and will not be our last. Went with a friend and my sister who had never been before and she loved it just as much as we do.
Very relaxing, exceptionally clean.
nat_jd , West Midlands, England
My husband & I needed a very relaxing do nothing holiday, these apartments fitted the bill perfectly. The apartments which are on two floors are exceptionally clean, very well equipped and spacious. The pool area was fabulous, no rushing to save sun beds, cleanliness exceptional, peacefully quite. The apartments are in a quite area with only a handful of restaurants & a supermarket nearby, this did not cause any problems as we did not want to be in a busy, music ridden town. The hotel courtesy bus ran regular transfers to & from the beach, and local buses were very frequent, running between towns. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Amazing for the price!!
Lauren B , Leicester, England, United Kingdom
I'm not sure how anybody can fault Cordial Green Golf!! We have just got back and we got everything inc flights, accomodation, transfers, insurance etc etc for £250 each for a week!!!! (self catering that is) How can you complain for that price? Unless your expecting 5*!! Fab 'bungalows' on 2 floors, small...but got everything you need! Pools are great, free wi-fi, very clean, friendly! One bit of advice....don't visit Playa Del Ingles, unless it's just for the beach!! We got a taxi down to Meloneras every night and its about 3.50 euros each way, food was amazing at all the restaurants we ate at, gorgeous views, nice shops!
Lovely bungalow, nice resort, great value.
Nichola T, Manchester, England, United Kingdom
We stayed here July 2011, which was my first holiday abroad so I was especially nervous as of what to expect. The resort was lovely, clean. Lots of sun loungers near the lovely pools. We had a balcony and a terrace where we sometimes ate breakfast and had a drink in the evening. 20 minute walk to the beach, also a regular shuttle bus. The apartment was cleaned every day to a good standard. I don't know why other people are complaining that it was far from places, its sunny and it is good to get fresh air and exercise! We will be returning :)
Great stay!!
Jamie000k, Galway' Ireland
Had a great stay at the Cordial Green Golf. Was very impressed with the bungalows, really nicely decorated, spacious and very clean. Excelent value for money. Set in a really quiet peacful location, although quite far from the sea (but they provided a shuttle bus to the beach), but has a really lovely pool. Breakfast was average but fine. Would really recommend a stay here :)

Jättefint hotell! Man hade en egen lght i 2 plan o egen liten uteplats, som ett litet radhus. Lugnt och skönt område! Poolerna va jättebra, allrahelst barnpoolen som va varm o go :) Bra service! Gratisbussar till både strand och shopping. 10 min promenad från hotellet finns bra restauranger så man måste inte in till Playa del Ingles om man inte vill. Rekomenderar det varmt!!!
Super value accommodation
alitravels_12, Londres, Reino Unido
Having just returned from a last minute break at the green golf appartments I would heartily recommend them for a bargain sunshine holiday. The two storey appartments and their setting is attractive, in a quieter setting about 10-15 minutes walk from the centre of Maspalomas next to the Golf course. The staff were friendly and helpful and the cleaners do a good job. Our accommodation was well equipped with a two ring hob, kettle, toaster, coffee maker and full size fridge with ice box. The bedroom is snug but the beds comfortable. Of two pools the larger is heated and never felt crowded with plenty of sunbeds which they discourage you from 'reserving' with towels, a good thing. This accommodation is most suited to couples or adults looking for a quieter relaxing holiday. Personally I would ask for a pool view room next time as the groundsmen on the neighbouring course start work before 7am!

Nous recommandons vivement cet hôtel. Les petits appartements sont géniaux, très bien décorés et équipés. Les locaux sont très propres. Les piscines sont géantes et très agréables. Le personnel est très aimable, souriant et s'inquiète de savoir si notre séjour se passe bien. De plus, il y a une navette gratuite pour aller à la plage. Nous y retournerons sans soucis

srupprecht, Viena, Austria
Es gab zwei lange Pools, wovon einer geheizt war, den wir zum sportlichen Schwimmen nutzen. Das Wasser hatte immerhin 24 Grad. Eine Greifvogelschau des Abendprogramms sahen wir uns an. Die mitspielende Eule hatte Augen, die man nicht so bald vergisst. Die Gegend um das Hotel eignet sich sehr gut zum morgendlichen Laufen. Beim Eingang nach rechts am Botanischen Garten vorbei, über den Hügel mit dem Mirador Golf hinunter zu den Dünen laufen oder vom Eingang aus nach links, hier geht es direkt zum Strand mit der schönen Promenade. Im Appartment waren unten das Wohnzimmer mit einer netten Küche und Bar, oben Bad und Schlafzimmer. Terrasse und ein kleiner Balkon gehörten dazu. Wir verpflegten uns selbst, man kann jedoch natürlich auch im Hotelrestaurant essen.Die Anlage ist wunderschön mit Pflanzen bewachsen
Bedre enn forventet

Was clean, tidy and a lovely place. We stayed not far from the eating area but wifi signal was very weak in our apartment. We had room only but one night we ate in the restaurant when they had a BBQ. It was amazing so do it if u can!
Beautiful hotel!
Ais11, Glasgow, Reino Unido
I stayed at this hotel for 1 week, and although the bungalows are quite small, the rest of the hotel makes up for this in sheer relaxation and beauty. Lets face it, you're not going to spend a lot of time in your room other than sleeping, and the beds are so comfortable that I had the best sleep I've had in years! I stayed half board and the food was lovely. Also, it's worth noting that during the breakfast times and dinner times (each of which are several hours), you get unlimited free coffee, and the coffee was utterly incredible. I spent a lot of time sitting at the pool bar, reading a book and drinking what must have amounted to their entire coffee supply! The area around the hotel is very quiet, so there isn't much of a nightlife, but this suited me perfectly. I was there to relax and unwind, not to party until the small hours of the morning. If you do want night life though, Meloneras and Playa del Ingles are quite nearby. In the evenings, after enjoying some of the entertainment, I preferred to walk back to my bungalow and sit out on the patio for a while. Many people had the same idea, and you could see families and groups of friends sitting outside with bottles of wine, just enjoying the surroundings. I found that some of the staff spoke English very well, but others had trouble understanding me. I think this is because this area if frequented by Germans more often than Brits, and so German is more widely spoken. This never amounted to a problem though, since I was always understood enough to communicate effectively. One good thing about the prevalence of German tourists is that the area has adopted some German traditions - namely coffee and cake deals. I sat in a wonderful outdoor restaurant with a large slice of chocolate cake and a delicious coffee for only 2 Euros. The free bus to the beach stops right outside the hotel, although the beach is actually within relatively easy walking distance if you'd rather take in the surroundings (the streets near the hotel are lovely to wander around). I would recommend going to the reception and picking up some leaflets, there are coach tours to some of the mountainous regions of Gran Canaria and they're quite cheap, I realised this too late unfortunately and missed out. I loved this hotel and if/when I go back to Gran Canaria, I would definitely return here. Oh, I forgot to mention, if you go in winter (from November 15th onwards), the pool outside the bar is heated, so I recommend swimming in this one since the other will be cold.
Happy again
ATII, England
Stayed here again for a week before Christmas (this is my 4th time) and as expected, everything was perfect. The location is great being midway between Playa Del Ingels and Maspalomas beach, taxis are cheap to both (about 4) and there is a shopping centre only a 10minute walk away (and a shop onsite). Accomodation is spacious and clean. There is an electric hob, pans with which to cook meals and a fridge - I went for the self catering option only because I prefer to chose my own meals. The food on offer in the dining area looked good. Reception staff are friendly, helpful and speak good english. I am looking forward to booking here again in the near future.

Was really impressed with the accomodation. lovley setting well maintained and modern.pools are very large and cater for all. close to beach and sand dunes.free bus to beach but its a nice walk.
great place and so was the weather
cuttlefish16, Nottingham, Reino Unido
My wife and i stayed here 27th Nov-4th Dec, very pleased with the accommodation, room 102 right by the swimming pool. This side gets the sun all day. Very helpful on the reception desk. A very charming girl with a lovely smile works in the shop a the side of reception. A must see place is Puerto de Mogan (6.30 Euros on the bus from faro maspalomas bus station). Use the free bus from Cordial Green to get to the bus station. At the side of the bus station is a salt water lagoon, great if you are a birdwatcher.Faro itself is a great place. Would go to Cordial Greeen again.
Fantastic place to stay
welshjue, Llanfairfechan, Reino Unido

As usual a great holiday in a great place!
lakes , Herts
Having just returned to the bungalows at maspolomas we couldn't have asked for a more peaceful and relaxing break. We were given a bungalow that we requested overlooking the golf course and once again, our request was granted. We always ask but know it cannot be guaranteed but as in the past, the management at the green golf bungalows have taken the time to ensure that where possible they have given us our requested bungalow. I am sure all bungalows are just as lovely but the bungalows looking over the golf course have wonderful view, and relaxing overlooking the green whilst having breakfast in the sun cannot be beaten! It is the first time we have visited in November and the pool was pretty cold....however, there were plenty of beds and areas in the shade if required. We usually eat in grand italia in melanoras however, this year they appeared to be very rushed and were serving our main course before we had finished our first course. The whole meal was rushed and although we would have said that it was our restaurant of choice we didn't go back for the rest of the holiday. We dined on the beach front in playa del ingles which we had never done before and ended up dining there for the rest of our holiday. Believe it was called restaurant gorro blanco Wonderful Fillet steaks at reasonable prices. Melanoras has a wonderful spa which should not be missed its 39 euros for 4 hours or 52 euros for a whole day. Best spa any of us have ever been too. We went this year and last year and would recommend it to anyone travelling to the canaries. Overall, bungalow was clean, just the right size 2 adults upstairs and one adult on sofa in lounge. Great holiday. Would recommend for friends couples or families also has a great baby pool. There are two pools on the complex as well so plenty of space for your lilo! Only used shop on site for daily fresh rolls and croissants. Did main shop in a supermarket as these are cheaper.
Best 2* we have stayed in!!!
Franmaz , DUMFRIESSHIRE
I will start with a couple of minor negatives. There was quite a few ants in our bedroom and bathroom at the start of our weeks holiday. Insect spray was supplied free and after a couple of sprays they all disappeared and never returned.The other negative was the size of the bedroom and beds. You had to move the beds to the side to get into the wardrobe.Other than that we had a great time. This complex was refurbished in 2006 and is a credit to the owners. It borders onto Maspalomas golf course and is a must for golfers like myself. There is a wonderful driving range,short game practice area and putting green that you can use/hire clubs for. The course itself was quite expensive but they only wanted 9 euros for the practice area. Excellent food and drink was served in the clubhouse also. The complex has two large swimming pools and some of the villas are only a few yards from the sunbeds and pools. The main eating area and bar served decent meals and drink at reasonable prices.Faro 2 is the closest shops and the supermarket was very reasonably priced. I would advise paying 3 euros to get the messages back if buying a few!! The best eating place we found was next to the bowling alley. You could get burgers for 2.50 euros and pizza for 6 euros. The quality was excellent. The best bar we found Paddys Bar which sits on the beach.It sold Carling lager and Magners cider and you can sit outside and watch the world go bye. We cant wait to return to Maspalomas next year.We would certainly stay at Cordial Green Golf. Excellent accomadation at reasonable prices.
Lovely holiday
Edwardeb3, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Reino Unido
Fantastic holiday, beautiful bungalows. We stayed in bungalow 213 facing the golf course. Spacious and clean. We were half board but the bungalow still provided basic equipment. The pool was lovely and plenty of sunbeds for all. I will admit the were a bit hard. Food was real good, plenty of choice. We will be going back.

Cordial Green Golf
Un viajero de Expedia,
Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo! Ideale per famiglie o coppie! Situato in zona tranquilla ma a 2 minuti da tutto! Unica pecca la non eccellente qualità del cibo del ristorante, comunque gradevole! Consigliatissimo!
Another great trip!
nymco, Dublín, Irlanda
Myself and my partner went to the green golf for the second year running now and it was just as great as the first time! Got the same apartment which we had requested and nothing let us down! Weather was brilliant too so lots of relaxing by the pool. Bungalows were cleaned daily and were absolutely spotless. Will definitely return for a 3rd time! the best 2* iv ever stayed in! I would highly recommend this for any couples or older travellers as it is so quiet and relaxing! A great base for your trip in the sun
Relaxing Week
ashmano, Bristol, Reino Unido
We have just returned from a week at Cordial Green Golf and have had a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing holiday. Bearing in mind this is a two star property we found the facilities to be extremely good value. The rooms are a little small but everything was very clean, and although there is no air conditioning the fans are adequate. We stayed in a room by the pool which had a nice view and plenty of sunshine, the room had all of the basics and the fridge had a small freezer compartment which is great to chill drinks. It seems that the rooms are being gradually updated and as we were leaving small flat screen televisions were replacing the old. However, we did not use the television or safe as you have to pay around 60 euros extra for this package. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis which we found the best way. The breakfast is plentiful and varied; its not the best quality but good value. We did even eat at the complex on one of the nights as you can pay around 12 euros for a 3 course buffet; again not the best quality but there was a wonderful salad selection and very tasty desserts (there is also an a la carte menu). The location is very central and not in the middle of nowhere as some other reviews suggest, yet is quiet and we barely noticed any sound from inside the complex from the road. You can walk to Maspalomas or Playa Del Ingles within about 25mins and to the lighthouse and the beach within about 30mins. If this is too far for some people there is a free bus which isn't bad and if the times don't suit, you are never waiting more than a minute for a taxi to pass which is around 3-4 euros. The weather was beautiful all week (mid Sept) and we purposely chose to go when the schools were back which was beneficial as the beautiful pool was never busy even though some locals use the pool on the weekend. All in all Green Golf is definitely somewhere we would return to.
Great value bungalows
Scubanut6, Lichfield, Reino Unido
Recently returned from a week at Green Golf and couldn't really fault the bungalow we stayed in. It was clean and very well kept with regular cleaning and towel changes. Everything worked including the TV, all lights and the fans (essential given the high temperatures we had during our stay). The patio area and the grounds of the complex were excellent and the flowers and gardens were very well kept. The location was good with a great walk down to the lighthouse and beach at Maspalomas. Playa del Inglis is walkable although we took taxis (readily available and cheap) in the evenings. All in all a very nice place to stay and very reasonable. For golfers it couldn't be better located!
Fantastic Bungalows
Martipeps ,
We stayed at green golf for 2 weeks, self catering. We couldn't fault the complex. Everything is very clean and uptogether. Great pool and warm too! Bungalows are 2 storey and were cleaned everyday with fresh towels and bedding. It's about a 15-20 minute walk to either Maspolomas or Playa de Ingles.. Great being central for both towns. There's camel rides less than 10 mins walk away from the conplex which was good and only 12 for half hour. Definitely would go back and recommend to holidaymakers!!

Quality Accommodation & Location
IOW77 , Isle of Wight, Reino Unido
My partner and I have just returned from a week's stay and absolutely loved every minute of it. The two storey apartments are spotless and spacious and the pools are both lovely. There is not much in Maspalomas now in terms of restaurants and bars but it takes 5 mins to get to Meloneres which I would highly recommend for restaurants, bars and shops. So classy and all on the waters edge. Watched some amazing sunsets whilst enjoying a cold glass of beer. A few reviews said the hotel bar staff weren't that friendly, but we didn't find that at all. We're both learning Spanish and tried our best to always speak Spanish to the staff when ordering drinks and food and we got on brilliantly with them, and they tried to correct us if we got it wrong. The shop on site is ideal. Some say its more expensive but if you just want basics its ideal and not expensive at all. Getting taxis are easy, just pop into reception and they will call one for you, and at the end of the night there are an abundance of taxis costing no more 3 or 4 euros. We can't wait to go back, and highly recommend this place!!

Outstanding value and beautiful bungalows...
Burnsy79 ,
Myself and my girlfriend just returned from a 7 night break at this resort. The bungalows are spotless and right next to Campo de Golf in Maspalomas. Pool is great and even during busy times you can get a sun lounger. It's a 3 taxi ride to The Lighthouse (I'd recommend going down a few nights to the beachfront there) or a 15 min walk, even for me being a flip-flop challenged typical male. Also, only a 2.70 taxi to Playa Del Ingles if you want a busy nightlife. Excellent location. Word of warning though, if you are stopped by a local 'tourist info' advisor who get's you to scratch a scratch card each avoid. The first one is a t-shirt and the second is a 5 Star prize... All you have to do is head to Puerto Rico to collect the next day... Big scam, just google Ambassador Club, Gran Canaria. If not for google we'd have been conned. Out with this, outstanding holiday and couldn't say a bad word about this place. Ideal for a couples holiday and very reasonable price.
Lovely place to stay but staff were quite rude!
sarawooplant ,
This resort was lovely. The apartments are clean and spacious. The pool was nice although it did get full of bugs through the day. The only thing is if you're going to go to the beach, go to playa del ingles. Its nicer than maspalomas beach but get a taxi there!! Maspalomas beach has a lovely shopping complex though so give that a try! Also the staff were quite rude, especially a guy in the bar. He didn't seem happy to be there so we just bought drinks to have on our terrace each night. (Plus the tropical beer is much cheaper from the mini Market onsite than the bar!)

KerryDirector , Tralee, Irlanda
Cordial green golf stayed for 2 weeks 2 families both with 11 year olds . Fab for kids great pools loads of kids but not loud or cramped .Staff were first rate apts very clean ideal for 3 guests ask for a pool view .The area around the apts is dead but get a taxi to the lighthouse this is where all the shops and nice restaurants are kids archade there also something for everyone paddys bar on the beach is worth a visit taxis should only cost 3 euros and there is a large supermarket which is good value.Anyone with kids should visit aqua park good value.Skip palmitos park save your cash nothing to see except birds.holiday world is a 5 min walk from apts and a good spot for an evening fun for everyone.we enjoyed our stay hope this is useful.
Very pleased and would recommend
simonegilchrist , Birmingham, Reino Unido
Excellent holiday, im a bit weary about accomodation and as it was my 2 yr olds son 1st holiday I was really dubious but when we got there we were so happy, nice and clean, the staff couldnt do enough for you, we thought our fridge was broken as it didnt seem very cold so they came and changed in within half an hour, only for us to realise there was no difference and the fridges were all the same, nethertheless the service was spot on and nothing seemed like too much trouble. I would defo come back here. Pools are great and was just a lovely relaxing holiday. The free shuttle service is excellent and the supermarket has a wide variety of stock. There is also a supermarket approx 7mins walk from the bungalows which is situated in a shopping centre which has lots of restaurants. All in all I was so pleased with my choice. Fab hol!!!
Best value for money holiday I've had
daniellemeasey, Wigan, Reino Unido
Just got back from 2 weeks self catering here was absolutely fantastic could not fault one thing here. The staff were all so friendly and willing to help you with anything you needed. Rooms were perfect for our stay and the maids did a fantastic job in cleaning them they were very efficient. As for the pool area it was brilliant there was always enough rooom for us to get 4 sunloungers everyday although I did have to get up to get them in the morning but that was at around half 8 so wasn't a problem seeingas we were up anyway. The only thing I would say negative wise is I wouldn't stay half board as the resteraunt didn't look to have much choice and was only small but there are plenty of resteraunts around to eat in we ate in a different one every night as taxis were only 3 or 4 euros into playa del ingles and melonares. Cannot fault for one minute any part of the holiday what so ever and would reccomend it to everyone we will definetly be going back!
Would definitely return good value for money
Roslyn70, Edimburgo, Reino Unido
Cheap last minute internet deal. Apartments had all we required and were spotless. Cleaners were in regularly. Beds were not the comfiest but fine for the stay. We were lucky enough to get an apartment next to the pool area and we loved it, felt very secure and left our door open while at the pool could just pop in and out for water etc. We did not use the restaurant as used our own food during the day and ate out at night. The on site supermarket is quite expensive but use the supermarket at the Faro 2 centre it is much cheaper and very well stocked. Faro 2 is a bit spooky as its mostly empty shops but dont be put off as the Broncemar II and El Nublo next door are both very nice staff make you feel so welcome and is good value for money. Faro 2 great for a lazy night as just ten minutes walk away. What I liked was each night was as different Meloneras ( a good 30 min walk )Very up market as opposed to Playa de Ingles which was full of tack but good fun.. We always got taxi to Playa de Ingles as just too far for us to walk. We had a fantastic holiday, there was something for everyone. Met some very nice people and would definitely return to Gran Canaria and these appartments!
Excellent place!!
BLACKCATLancs, LANCS
Stayed here for the first time in May 2011 for the Maspalomas annual gay pride. Lovely apartments. Ceiling fans in both the living area and bedrooms. Own veranda area with sunbeds provided. Rooms cleaned most days and the maids were very friendly. Only place within easy walking distance is the Faro centre. The Broncemar served excellent food (T-Bone steak was brill!) and the waiters were really funny. However both Maspalomas and Playa De Ingles are only a short taxi ride away. Approx 4 - 5 euros. Would definitely return.

Excellent location and Apartments
Belmont_NJ, Leeds, Reino Unido
This was a last minute getaway. Read Trip advisor and decided to go with it. An excellent choice. Staff are extremely helpful. Reception can help book trips around the island, which are cheaper than the holiday reps. They hold a number of tour booklets from independent companies and they pick you up from infront the hotel. Green Golf has a free bus to the beach or into town. Only 5 mins away in a Taxi not costing more than 4Euros. The apartments are well equiped for a self-catering holiday. Free Wi-Fi is available near the pool area, so an apartment facing the pool is ideal. If you have a garden view, it is possible to get it on the upstairs balcony or when chilling by the pool. It has its own supermarket on site and I would recommend to everyone. We had a great time and thank you Green Golf!
Great resort, we did not want to leave
adrn01, Dublín, Irlanda
From the very outset we were very impressed with Green Golf. The receptionist was polite and helpful, and gave us a map to our room, and all the information about the resort we needed. The apartment itself was immaculate. It was very clean, and smelled fresh. The cupboards held a good inventory of cups, plates and cooking utensils. The cooking facilities consisted of a dual hob. Unfortunately, there was no oven or microwave, but if you intend on eating your main meal out this should not be a problem. A toaster and coffee maker were also present in the Kitchen. There was an excellent shower in the bathroom, and everything was also nice and clean. Towels were in abundance, and were provided everyday by very friendly cleaning staff. Even when we were out and had placed the sign that cleaning was not needed today, they kindly placed a fresh bundle on the table outside our door for us. The pool was suitably big enough and well shaped so that it was easy to find somewhere to relax, play around or have a decent swim without any problems or interference from other guests. All in all, this was a great resort, and I highly recommend for a relaxing time away.

Lau10, Dagenham, essex
This was my 4th trip to Gran canaria and my second time in Maspalomas. I prefer Maspalomas to playa de inlges as its a much nicer resort and its also nice and quite too so if you want to go and party you can but if you want a quite night in you can too. Travelling with a group of 8 friends we chose this hotel because it looked lovely and had very good reviws. Well we arre very glad we did. The two massive pools are great because it means you can relax without the kids dissturbing you, the kids pool is attacted to the main pool near the resturant. There are also alot of sunbeds and we didnt ever have to fight foror reserve one. The apartments were lovely small and compact yet spacious enough that you didnt feel cramped. The fridge/freezer/cooker are of good size and the breakfast bar is a nice touch. The rooms are cleaned daily which is nice, the hotel staff were always pruning and tidying up which was nice to see. The on site supermarket was well stocked although the local spar is not too far away. There were always taxi's available outside the hotel if you needed them and they are very cheap so you dont have to worry about spending too much on them. The free bus the hotel puts on both to playa de ingles and maspalomas beach is handy but i think it could do with adding some more times to it as its really not viable for alot of people. I think there was only 2/3 buses a day and thats it. We did eat at the hotel resturant a few times and the food is good. They have a buffet for both breakfast/lunch/dinner or you can just pick something from the menu which is nice. As for eating out well the food in the resurants of both maspalomas and playa de ingles is superb...There is so much choice and everything is very reasonable, some of the resturants will offer you free drinks/starters to try and intice you to eat at their resturant and this is good for the budget!!! The staff spoke good english and were very helpful to all our needs. The hotel's key system was all quite good and i felt safe in the knowledge that not just anyone can walk into the hotel complex. Out of the 4 different place ive now stayed in this is definitely the only hotel i would go back too. We all loved it!!
Super Holiday
Wayaye, Dublín, Irlanda
Abslolutly beautiful place, very clean rooms, two lovely pools, loads of sun loungers.. If you want a relaxing holiday, go here, its only about 3 taxi to busier spots and again to where the lighthouse is, there are fab reaturants ansd excellent shopping, guess, macys, lacoste etc.. Everyone so friendly and helpful, one tiny annoyance was the lady working in the mini market, very grumpy, no hi or bye.. The other girl that works ther very friendly. Other than that, i loved every minute of it. Fantastic!
2nd time at these apartments & we'll be back
lola64Falkirk, Falkirk
We travelled with friends to the Green Golf, beforehand my nephew who speaks Spanish called the apartments to ask for specific numbered apartments & he was told that they are allocated on day of arrival but would put a note on the computer for us, we were delighted to get the apartments we requested + the reception staff were most helpful. We find the bungalows spot on for size & the surroundings are most beautiful. You need to remember how cheap it is to stay here & personally I think it is fantastic value for money. Ok it is a 20-25 minute walk into Masapalomas, so cheap for taxi back after enjoying a few vinos. Highly recommend the Rose Rosada wine from Faro2 supermarket... only 2.90 euro yummy. Your holiday is what you make it........ enjoy
Loved it!
AimsBath, Bath
My boyfriend and I are in our late twenties and stayed here after finding a pretty cheap deal on teletextholidays.com. Needless to say we were a bit nervous having got a cheap deal in place we'd never visited. We were not disappointed at all. I can't understand how anyone can pick faults in this accommodation as we couldn't have asked for more. The bungalows were spotless and cleaned everyday if you wanted them to. You were given clean towels everyday and the cleaners were extremely polite. The complex was so peaceful in the evenings (partly due to most of the other guests being a bit older) which suited us perfectly as we're past our clubbing days now! Plus you get an undisturbed sleep - I will admit to the beds being not the comfiest in the world, but I don't expect home comforts on holiday. In the daytimes, there was no fight for sunbeds or sunbathing space, there are 2 huge pools. People have moaned about the distance to the seafront, but we enjoyed the twenty minute walk to the restaurants in the evening as the sun was setting and got a taxi back which never cost more than 4euros. (to walk to the seafront turn left out the resort, past the golf club and follow the storm drain, you can't go wrong) There is an old shopping/restaurant centre about 5 mins away with a cheaper supermarket and some nice places to eat with really friendly staff - unfortunately this area isn't as busy now there's a new development on the seafront. I would recommend this to anyone, we had a lovely lazy holiday here.
Great stay at Cordial Green Golf
Kelamv77, Segovia, España
Stayed for 9 days, 8 nights. Pili in Reservations was very nice and friendly. Reception staff were all also nice, chatty, friendly and helpful througout our stay. We were allocated in a bungalow next to the HK laundry so following early morning we could hear all maids talking loudly but having gone for a relaxed trip & not wanted to wake up early, we brought this up and were offered to be moved. We were moved the following day to another one which was also better than the previous! :) Quality of bungalows are fairly good. Our first bungalow the shower leaked to the bathroom floor but not the second one. The bedroom upstairs was also larger. A pity they dont have double beds :( The area/complex is quiet, families, retired couples... dont come here if you are looking for 'Vive la vida loca', go to Playa del Ingles instead. Perfect for couples who are looking for a relaxed break. Swimming pools are well taken care of, enjoyed very much. Wifi is free and you get this next and around the main swimming pool, which i enjoyed. Not availble in the bungalow though.. I would recommend they leave a sponge and soap in kitchen on arrival for guests to clean their own dishes, since they dont do it for you. Loved the little flower & cloth every day. Be aware there are no toiletries in bathroom, only a bar soap. Since you have to pay/hire a deposit for the tv I'd recommend they would upgrade them, they are tiny!! and even though I did not care about tv, my fiance did watch tv every day. They also 'hire' hairdryers, I brought my own. We were out every day and evening, only had lunch our last day, I had fish (no bones) recommended by waiter and was not dissapointed. Basic, simple but nice. Since our flight was late & late c/out is not always possible, they offered a bungalow to have a shower in the afternoon, very much appreciated. Restaurants I recommend in Maspalomas: El Salsete, Samsara, Grill Sal y Brasa (if you got a car, it is far but meat is AMAZING! Avenida de los Colegios nº19, 35100 Juan Grande) Great Value for Money. We rented a car and that was a very good idea, although taxis are cheap, the freedom of a car is a bonus. I will be back to Maspalomas and most likely will be back to Cordial Green Golf. I do recommend it.
Un paradis pour les enfants!! nous comptons bien y retourner!
NkcGranCan, NKC
Mes enfants et moi avons passé une semaine dans cet hôtel en septembre 2010; on nous a attribué un bungalow avec vue sur piscine et jardin. Simple, propre. Mignon comme tout. Nous avons adoré l'endroit, le domaine est vaste, les petits ne voulaient même pas sortir, ils avaient tout: de l'espace, des piscines géantes , un parc, mini club, des animations la nuit... Il y a plusieurs navettes gratuites quotidiennes qui vont vers la Playa del ingles et la playa de Maspalomas. Les bus s'arrêtent juste à l'entrée du complexe, et effectuent plusieurs arrêts en cours de route. Holiday World est à environ 1 km, on peut y aller à pieds La zone est plutôt calme (fêtards, fuyez!!) Seuls points négatifs: -pas de maître nageur au niveau des piscines, il faut toujours garder un oeil sur les enfants dès qu'ils sortent du bungalow; -nourriture horripilante au restaurant, mais servie par un personnel sympathique - zone assez chère : mieux vaut faire ses courses au Mercadona de San Fernando, tout près de la Playa del Ingles, (bien achalandé, pas cher, bonne qualité) -il manque un four dans les chambres mais je compte bien y retourner, et je le recommande vivement aux familles avec enfants!
Einfach eine schöne Anlage
christhechilla, Stuttgart, Alemania
Die Anlage ist gepflegt und Sauber. Personal ist bei defekt sofort zur Stelle und freundlich. Es ist komisch, dass sie die Klima-Anlagen wieder ausgebaut haben. Der Pool ist sauber. Viele Spanier gibt es dort. Deutsche sind dort seltener. Strandbusse die sehr oft und zu guten Zeiten fahren. Selbstverpflegung funktioniert gut, da eine super Küchenausstattung. Kostenloses Wifi über die ganze Anlage. Bungalows bieten genug Platz und sind sauber. Die Betten sind gemütlich. Die Animation lässt zu wünschen übrig, jedoch schauen dort auch nicht viele Leute zu. Das ist vielleicht der Grund wieso es keine so ausgeprägte Animation wie in vielen anderen Hotels gibt. Insgesammt eine sehr gute Appartment Anlage. Sehr Empfehlenswert! Wir waren dort schon 4 mal und können uns nicht beklagen
great spot,quiet location.
suehunter, Atherstone, Reino Unido
we had a great week here, as it was full we thought we would have to get up early to get a sun bed, but needn"t have worried there were loads of room as the tthe two pools are very large.The bungalows are not huge but they were comfortable and very clean,and the weather was so nice we were hardlly ever in. It is a lovely walk to the lighthouse, about 35 minutes, where there are loads of resturants where we would reccomend El Torro, it is the first one you come to, the steaks are fab.We will certainly return there.
Excellent appartments in lovely well kept grounds
The bungalow was really nice, exceptionally clean, nicely decorated. Towells changed every day and apartments cleaned everyday without fail. The grounds are very nice with palm trees and two good pools, yes the beds are single but much better because its too hot at night to share a bed. The female receptionist is truly vile but the male is very helpful and they are both fluent in many languages. I liked the food, it was basic but if you ask for something not on menu, they will make it for you. Bar is cheap and bar man is lovely. Overall its a great place, close to beach and shopping centre, fantastic bungalow and superb weather sunny everyday.
Tan bonito todo...

Estuve a mediados de mes en el Green Golf y lo cierto es que no tengo ninguna queja. Los apartamentos son muy bonitos, está todo muy limpio, las piscinas son geniales y el personal es muy amable y servicial, sobre todo en Recepción. Muchas gracias a Emilio, que nos atendió en todo momento muy amablemente.
Beautiful, quiet hotel, perfect for a relaxing holiday
Summer_angel04, Oslo, Noruega
Cordial Green Golf is perfect if you're looking for a nice, relaxing time - with the bars, restaurants and partying of Playa del Inglés just minutes away by taxi (4 EUR). CGG has 1 and 2 bedroom apartments with a small balcony and terrace, most located around two large swimming pools (one heated in winter time). There are palm trees and flowers everywhere. The golf course is right by the hotel, and the beach at Maspalomas (and the sand dunes) are a 7 min taxi ride away (4 EUR). Some do half board - we had the buffet one night, and are glad we had other options the other nights. Service in restaurant is slightly lacking - not being able to charge meals to our room was a surprise. The "shopping" centre Faro 2 is a 5 min walk away, some nice restaurants and a larger supermarket, just no real shopping... The Maspalomas Boulevard by the beach has plenty of restaurants and upscale shopping if you don't want to go to Playa del Inglés (also 7 min taxi ride). The kitchenettes are equipped with a coffee maker, a toaster etc, and you can make dinner there if you want. Fans provided in both bedroom and downstairs sitting room (which also sleeps one on the sofa bed). Highly recommended!

Peaceful, comfortable, ideal.
Mordonite , London
I stayed here after seeing other comments on TA. It met expectations, very peaceful wth almost a village atmosphere. We were put in room 90 facing the road but having been forewarned by other TA people we immediately asked to be moved, so we only had 2 nights in room 90. Room 90 was so tiny we couldn't open the wardrobe without moving the bed, and it had no direct sunshine, so was quite awful. Our next room (no 161 facing the pool was great though, so all in all we were satisfied. There are some nice touches like the skylight that mean there is always natural light. I found the staff to be helfpul and friendly - perhaps the woman on reception has left. The chap we spoke to was great. Otherwise I would agreewith other TA coments - beds a bit hard,showers leak, but generally comfortable and pleasant. We didnt use many of the facilities but the restaurant looked pretty basic food wise. The FARO 2 shopping centre has a few reasonable resurants and a good German bakery, otherwise the centre is looking a bit tired and run down with many of the shop units closed down. For better shopping and resurants head down to the Maspalomas seafront. The best restaurant however is Rustico, about 5-10 minutes walk towards the sea, just before the bridge. It's a wee bit pricier than some, but the best food we had here.

Lovely little place
Rubincain , Edinburgo, Reino Unido
Quiet, clean and a nice pool area. What more can you ask for? We went to the breakfast buffet one time and weren't impressed. There is free WIFI available which is a bonus in a 3 star (Very limited range) Rooms are modern, small, cosy but well cleaned. Shower was good and strong. Kitchen had two rings, a sink and a fridge freezer(single) If you are looking for a lively place this isn't for you as a lot of people stay there permanently and there is a strict no noise after 11pm policy. The complex is about a mile from the beach

Un viajero de Expedia ,
Die Anlage ist empfehlenswert, die Speisen sind gut, die Bungalows in Ordnung. Sehr störend indes empfande ich (aber dafür können weder die Veranstalter noch das Anlagen-Personal etwas), jeden Tag ab Mittag kreisen Rundflugflieger und Werbeflieger über den Süden Maspalomas. Das ist extrem nervig !!! Wer die absolute Ruhe sucht, sollte nicht nach Maspalomas reisen. Wir hatten die vermutlich ruhigste Anlage der Stadt, aber täglich kreisen Flieger wegen Rundflügen oder Werbebanner am Himmel. Das ist sehr sehr nervig!
JA, war entspannend...
Un viajero de Expedia ,
Die Hotelanlage ist sehr gepflegt und sauber. Für einen Kurzurlaub von 1 Woche waren wir sehr zufrieden. Wir hatten Halbpension, das Essen war gut. Wenn wir etwas verbessern würden, dann wäre es der Restaurantraum, der nicht besonders gemütlich wirkt. Im Vergleich zu der schönen Außenanlage eher praktisch und nicht unbedingt zum längeren Verweilen geeignet, hier fehlt Flair - Grünpflanzen etc. Auch der Außenbereich mit den wenigen Tischen müßte attraktiver für die Essenszeiten gestaltet werden. Wir sind uns sicher, dass viele Urlauber lieber auf der Terrasse frühstücken würden als im klimatisierten Innenraum. Das Reinigen des Fußbodens im Restaurant mit Desinfektionsmittel während der Essenszeiten mußten wir einige Male über uns ergehen lassen - sollte schnellstens verändert werden. Ansonsten können wir dieses Hotel für eine ruhigen und erholsamen Urlaub weiter empfehlen.
Perfect Family destination

Bungalows are small but very clean and feel recently decorated/renovated. Complex is very pleasant. 2 Beautiful, large pools and well kept green areas. Staff are all excellent and the buffet/bar is very reasonable. There was nightly entertainment for the kids which was all organised very well. Location wise it's in between MAspalomas and Playa Del Ingles but really within walking distance of either. Taxis are about 3.50 each way which is reasonable but adds up. Maspalomas/Meloneras is gorgeous with a nice strip of restaurants along the strand. It's not cheap there but it's preferable to the tacky Playa Del Ingles. Fully recommended for a family holiday.
A very relaxing trip - just what the doctor ordered!!

Having stayed at the apartments a few years ago I roughly knew what to expect upon my return. However, it was fairly recently renovated and clean and tidy. Check in was a breeze and the apartment was ready upon our arrival; the apartment had all the mod cons including a TV but that had to be hired for the week and due to a lack of English speaking channels wouldn't have been worth it. We, however, really enjoyed the lack of TV and internet. Besides if you really need your footie or X Factor fix most of the bars show it. Sold on going away at this time of year, lovely weather without fighting for sunbeds. The apartments are ideally located; you can walk to the beach and a nearby shopping centre. Obviously the recession and season are hitting some of the bars, shops and restaurants which is a bit sad but the taxis are fairly cheap and readily available so venturing out is easy. Plus alot of people speak English if your Spanish is not up to much! If you like tuna you must try the Cactus Faro restaurant in the Oasis Shopping centre by Maspalomas beach, highly recommended!!

Just returned after a fantastic weeks stay at Cordial Green Golf, Maspalomas, Gran Canaria. Couldn't fault the place at all. Duplex (apartment) was immaculate and house keepers came every day (except Sunday and Thursday) to clean and change towels. The whole complex was well maintained and the swimming pools were cleaned daily. Our only critisism was that items in the supermarket were more expensive than elsewhere but luckily there are plenty of other supermarkets nearby that were very reasonable. If you are looking for a nice quiet place to stay then this is the place for you. We highly recommend it and can't wait to return.
excellent in everyway

We stayed here for one week, at first we thought it to be a bit isolated as regards the beach, shops and restuarant but a free regular bus service from the complex and cheap taxi fares soon sorted that out. Didnt eat in complex but food looked ok. Sun loungers were booked with towels every morning and most people didnt use them until lunchtime, quiet annoying! Bungalow was lovely, very clean and comfortable and sitting outside the door everynight having a quiet drink was just like being at home. Hired a car and went to Porto Rico and Mogan. Would definately recommend it and most definately would go back
clean, peaceful,great location,central to everwhere,very friendly,great pool.

couldnt fault the complex at all, very clean, helpful staff, we was self catering so i cannot say about the food, grounds beautiful and the swimming pool amazing.
Cordial Green Golf di Maspalomas - Gran Canaria. Consigliatissimo!!!
Un viajero de Expedia,
Hotel come da descrizione e foto, molto bello e tranquillo, camere accoglienti e pulite con angolo cottura, bella la grande piscina. La struttura è frequentata principalmente da inglesi e tedeschi, pochi italiani. Consigliamo vivamente questo aparthotel, consigliamo anche di affittare un auto per girare autonomamente l'isola anche se ben servita da mezzi pubblici. Il clima è splendido, di giorno la temperatura era di circa 29° ventilato, di sera solo in due serate siamo dovuti ricorrere alla felpa, altrimenti si stava benissimo.
Eine Reise wert****
Un viajero de weg.de,

splendida vacanza

Siamo stati al Green golf dal 15/08 al 26/08 e devo ammettere che è stata veramente un bella sorpresa accorgersi che i bungalows erano esattamente come il depliant mostrava se non pure meglio.. Appartamenti su due piani con una camera da letto un po' piccola e con 2 lettini uniti ma tutto molto curato ed accogliente. Le piscine sono grandi e ben tenute salvo che i vari turisti avevani il viziaccio di occupare perennemente i lettini con il telo mare e addirittura di portarseli dentro casa perciò capitava spessimo che ci fossero lettini occupati ma vuoti per giornate intere.. Noi abbiamo cenato in albergo solo una sera ed era il mercoledi' in cui fanno barbecue a bordo piscina e non ci siamo trovati troppo male però è consigliabile cenare fuori magari a playa de l'ingles o a meloneras e con 30 si cena tranquillamente in 2 con porzioni molto abbondanti.. Italiani in questi bungalows ce n'erano davvero pochini e tutta l'animazione e i vari depliants erano in tedesco o in inglese oltre che in spagnolo.. Comunque è un posto molto ,molto tranquillo dove poter riposare e come ottima base d'appoggio per potersi spostare a visitare tutta l'isola..
Better than anticipated, an excellent holiday!!

We arrived at the apartments around 10pm and were immediately impressed with the appearance, the reception area was well lit and welcoming. After we checked in we found our bungalow straightaway, once inside we were pleasantly suprised at how spacious the living/kitchen area was as we had read some reviews that had said the bungalows were very narrow, personally for a couple like ourselves we had no problem with the size of the room, although I can imagine it may get a little crowded if travelling with a family or other adults, but for a couple its a perfect size. There is a staircase leading up to the bedroom which again suprised us as we had expected it to be a lot smaller, again from the reviews we had read. There was plenty of room in the wardrobes for the 2 of us, the safe is situated in one of the wardrobes which is operated by a code which you choose yourself when checking in, just be warned that if you leave the door open for more than 15mins it will lock you out and you must start again with a new code, but this was easily sorted after we asked at reception and someone came to reset it for us. The bathroom, was spacious enough for us and was very clean, would suggest that a towel is placed by the door when using the shower as the water can drip out if the door isn't shut properly. There was a small balcony with a small washing line, there are no chairs but we took the downstairs patio chairs up to sit on if we chose to sit up there but spent more time sitting outside downstairs were we could see the pool. We had asked when booking the holiday for a pool view and wasnt expecting to get one but we were lucky enough to get one. The morning after we arrived we chose to get up early to get some food from the onsight shop but as there wasnt a lot that we would eat (myself being a fussy eater) we chose to walk to the commerical centre about a 5 minute walk down the road were there was more selection. We had put our towels on the sunbeds before we went to the shop and good job we did because when we got back all the sunbeds had been reserved. I dont normally like leaving our towels on sunbeds but we noticed everyone left their towels from very early on and never even bothered using them until well after midday, one family in particular wouldnt event turn up until 4-5pm! Luckily we spent practically all day, everyday by the pool so we always made good use of them. One morning when we woke up at 8 we watched one family reserve up to 12 sunloungers and disappear for a number of hours, only to return and not even use 2 of the them at all!! I would suggest if you want a sunlounger for the day you have to do as everyone else does and reserve them which may mean getting up around 8am. Not necessarily a major problem but could be for people who would rather not have to wake up early on their holiday just to get a sunlounger. We chose self catering so cant comment on the all inlusive package, but we did eat in the bar area were we enjoyed some very delicious burgers! We mostly ate out in the evening either at the commercial centre down the road from us or we would walk down to the beach 20-25min walk or a 3euro taxi ride, were we ate at a brilliant italian restaurant called sorrentos. The commercial centre had a few restaurants to choose from, with great portion sizes, we also found a quiet bar were we visited a number of times, the bar man was pleasant and would always remember our drink order each time we visited! As we enjoyed relaxing by the pool we never really ventured out of the maspalomas area so cant really comment on any other places nearby. Cordial Green was definately better than anticipated after reading some reviews, but as we wanted a quiet, relaxing holiday this was the perfect place for us to stay. Although it was quiet the only problem we had with noise was when for the last 3 nights of our stay we had some very very noisy neighbours and quite rude, e.g spitting on the pathway. They kept us awake from 1am and then 6am (when they finally went to bed!) running around, shouting, banging doors etc, Other than that the place was nice and quiet with the odd noise here and there but nothing to complain about. All in all this was an excellent holiday, perfect for families, couples,and friends, would definately recommend as it is suitable for all!
Excellent sta at Green Golf!

Just back from an amazing week at Green Golf Bungalows! We arrived around lunch time and was shown straight to our bungalow, which was facing the smaller pool, no. 83.Happily surprised by the cleanliness and general size of the place, especially as only self catering. The maids came in every single day except thurs, to make beds, general clean and tidy and change towels every other day. Staff we're extremely helpful and answered all questions we had about general area and where to visit. Never ate in the restaurant but drank every night round the pool, which was reasonably priced. Only ever ate aound the lighthouse area which has by far the most amazing restaurants in Gran Canaria! A must try is the paella at the grill bar, so so good and huge portions! At at the Oasis also and very good food their too. We visited Peurto Rico and Playa Del Ingles, but have to be truthful in saying that I found them very run down and stuck in the 80's, thus we never ate in these places. Beaches are good tho in comparison! Overall a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday and i am already looking to go back in October
Still Love it!

Have been to these bungalows three times now and really love the location and the bungalows cannot be faulted. However, this year - perhaps as we travelled later (end of June beginning of July) we did encounter a couple of problems. There were not enough sunbeds for the amount of people that were there. There were times when people had to lay their towel on the floor. This was because of a direct misuse of "holding" sunbeds by the dreaded towels. Every day when we went out, there would be towels under every shaded area and these would be there even if the occupants didn't then turn up until 4 in the afternoon thus leaving people to sleep on the floor just so that their chosen area could be reserved in the shade all day. Again - due to the amount of spanish choosing to stay at the resort of a weekend - we were unable to book our room to leave later. You can usually pay so many euros (think its 25) to stay from the initial book out time of 12 mid-day until 6pm. We were also informed when we enquired that due to our flight not being until 4am the next morning - we could book another night at the resort for 35 euros however, when we came to book this a day before (as instructed - even though we asked more than once in our stay) we were then informed that they were fully booked and therefore, we would have to vacate our rooms at 12 - so be warned......) A courtesy room was made available but its a free for all - no collection of a key and therefore, when we turned up - there was already a family in the room and we had to wait downstairs and then a family walked in just after they left and that family had to wait for us. Courtesy room is open from 3 till 6pm. Towels were used by first family so remember to have you own otherwise you will be left without anything to dry yourself - this is perhaps something that could be looked at by the management (i.e the handing out of towels for those people that have to use the courtesy room as one or two sets is clearly not enough. ) Our bungalow was a double bungalow (169) facing the golf course. Lovely location. We were lucky to have two bedrooms upstairs - others had a bedroom upstairs and one downstairs as all bugalows are linked (i.e our second bedroom went over the top of next doors bungalow so their bedroom went underneath that bedroom and hence was probably off of their kitchen/living area.) Great holiday - apartments clean - would definately go back but maybe not "in season" as fighting for sunbeds every day is not a great way to start your day! Management should introduce a policy to stop this. The lighthouse at Costa Melanoras is lovely to go and spend your evening and only costs between 3 and 4 euros via taxi. Favourite restaurant "Grand Italia". The main hotel at the lighthouse is called Hotel Lopesan and has a spa for public use at a cost of 39 euros for four hours - best thing we did all holiday - well worth it and very special.
fabulous place to holiday
wereview , notts
after reading a few bad reviews about green golf and a few good ones we decided to take the chance on a last minute booking and in all honesty i could not have booked a better holiday if they had paid me to go. i will say in all honesty that i wont lie in this review i had a few reservations about green golf before going but upon arrival at 21.15 saturday evening we were highly suprised at what greeted us the reception is open 24hrs we were told if we wanted a meal that night that the resteraunt would accept food orders until 21.45 so with a quick dash to the bungalow and back we ordered a hot meal (we went self catering our choice) the service and the meal at that time of night was absolutly marvellous 4 hot meals not one ounce of attitude from the staff they fell over themselves to please us and provide us with excellent service and meal (i wish it were so in england). anyway the bungalows we had two both on arrival were spotlessly clean there was everything in the bungalows two people need for a holiday for two nothing posh but the essentials i wont list them. the staff all over the complex we found very polite helpful and willing to be of assistance at all times of day and night. we had one problem whilst staying in our bungalow the shower started leaking through the ceiling on to the marble staircase which became slippery so i went to reception to report this and told the gent in reception he said 5 minutes my spanish is not good so i waited at the desk he turned and said five minutes plumber at your bungalow i laughed it was 19.30 so went to the onsite shop and went back to the bungalow the plumber was waiting on the terrace for me i couldnt belive it at that time of night he went in and worked like a trooper for 40 minutes and sorted the problem there and then but apologised profusely because he could nt do anything about the paint work on the ceiling until the weekend wow builders and plumbers beware the spanish are coming. the pool is a fantastic size and absolutely spotlessly clean and cleaned every morning between 5 am and 8 am the terrace area is full of sun beds which are as per covered in towels early morning and its not the germans its the pig ignorant brits that were the problem we counted 40 sunbeds on the terrace with towels on and nobody using them the whole day as we were out there all day and no one uesd them and when the towels were collected most of the culprits were brits we have made it known to reception that the rules of the site state no reserving of sun beds should be strictly enforced for the benefits of the residents who wish to use them. (did see one guy not sure his nationallity but went round about 10 am and threw all towels on the floor for not being used good on u.) the cleaners did an excellent job of the rooms the towels and bedding in our bungalow were changed 4 times as i know to we were only there 9 nights 10 days and Maria did an outstanding job of the cleaning even down to washing our dirty pots when we went out and forgot them and thanks for the flowers in the room everyday needless to say she deserved the good tip left. we ate out all the time except for breakfast when we did continental on the patio a good way to meet and greet all other tourists passing by. so i cant and wont comment on the full board option which i understand is very limited in its choice. for a really good evening meal at a good price with service over and above anything you would expcect from a five star hotel go to the nearby FARO shopping centre to the EL NUBLO restraunt and meet the two nicest and smashing waiters any one could wish to meet it was a pleasure to be served by them Daniel & Marco and the food was all out of this world and cooked absolutely spot on to your taste not theres. a brilliant restraunt had we found it sooner we would have eaten there for 9 nights and that might sound corny but try it and see i think you will agree if the spanish eat there then so should you you know its got to be good. the weather i couldnt do anything about over 30 degrees every day brilliant !!!! the whole complex of bungalows was quite but very full but seemed empty all the people seemed to care about others privacy and the respect late at night we never heard a sound all night no drunken behavior and we had a big mix of nationallitys whilst there german, spanish, french,irish,dutch,and of course us the brits but no trouble. i cannot rate this complex its buildings the staff the suroundings, the holiday enough there was four of us all adults and not one of us could find fault with this holiday even down to the agents who booked everything for us sunmasters at a cost of £1300.00 for all of us. will be going again in december already booking and only been back a day. ABSOLUTELY MARVELOUS HOLIDAY
Fab Holiday! - Great Accommodation and Location
Steff78 , Newbury
I would definitely revisit the Green Golf again. This place is perfect for families. The accommodation was modern and very clean. Location was superb. I have stayed in Gran Canaria a few times before, but would defintely return to Maspalomas. It is close enough to travel into Ingles, but far enough away from the hussle and bussle of the busy resort. If you prefer a quieter place to stay, Maspalomas is definitely recommended. Green Golf also offer free bus transfer to both Play De Ingles and to Maspalomas beach. Alternatively you can easily get a taxi into the town for approx 3. My only negative comment I have about Green Golf is that the food quality in the restaurant was extremely poor. In the evening they offer a buffet for 12.50 - DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY - EAT OUT INSTEAD! You will get better value for money elsewhere. Other than that, I certainly recommend Green Golf to anyone looking to visit Gran Canaria, we had a fabulous holiday!
Fantastic holiday - highly recommended

We visited the Cordial Green Golf for a week in June, and were very impressed by the standard or accommodation for the price we paid. We've stayed in several self catering apartments before, and none were anywhere near this standard. The "bungalows" (on 2 floors....?!?) were spacious and very clean. The kitchens were well equipped, with a toaster, kettle, etc. The beds were a little on the hard side, but we still slept well. When we arrived the attachment to fix the shower head to the wall had broken, we reported it to reception and maintenance came and fixed it within 30 minutes which we thought was superb service. We didn't eat in the restaurant as we're not keen on buffet type meals, but there are loads of good restaurants at the nearby Faro shopping centre, and it's only a couple of euros for a taxi into Playa del Ingles. Taxis drive frequently past the hotel entrance too, so you only have to wait a few minutes for one to arrive. The pool area was lovely, with 2 large pools. They were a bit on the cool side but after a few minutes you get used to it, and a swim was really refreshing as it was quite hot. They also had a table tennis tables & 2 pool tables by the pools. There were plenty of sunbeds, although they some did seem to get "reserved" by people putting their towels on them. We always managed to find some spare ones though, so it wasn't a problem. I would highly recommend these apartments to anybody, we would definitely return to them (which is unusual for us as we've never been to the same place twice before!).
great value, really pleasant accomodation

just back from a weeks stay - and really impressed well put together, very clean and well presented 2 floor apartments, set in great gardens with 2 pools pleasant staff - good facilities trust all the good things written here wifi internet is free of charge and throughout the complex - a real bonus tv is 13 euros for a weeks hire - as is a safe cannot comment on package food, but the meals in the bar were very reasonable and well priced in comparison to other parts of the resort where the dreadful euro exchange rate is taking its toll
Quiet, superbly clean and well laid out accommodation

What an excellent choice we made when we chose the Green Golf. It is well situated overlooking the golf course (ask for a room facing the golf course) about a mile and a half from the sea front. The gardens are beautifully manicured, the rooms are spotlessly clean, the staff friendly, reception is most helpful and we would recommend self catering there unreservedly. We tried the buffet once and lunch once and would not recommend the food, but taxis are cheap and there are a host of restaurants waiting to be sampled so for self catering, accommodation does not come better for the price than this.

I arrived on march 11th,a little early and had to wait 20 minutes for a room,which I didn't mind.While I was waiting in the reception staff were joined by who I think was the chef and began having sexual jokes with other at the top of their voices.Not very nice in front of a customer.They guessed me being Irish I wouldn't understand, but I speak Spanish..I stayed in room 204 which faces the entrance gate.It was great.I'd stayed in this complex twice before and the apartments were a lot less quality inside. So obviously there are different grades of apartment.The upstairs was better arranged and the bedroom had a little more space.In the kitchen area I had cupboards with doors as opposed to open shelves previously.I could find no fault with the apartment or the cleaners.No bugs or crawlies at all during my stay.The mini market is very expensive.. Faro 2 shopping centre is nearby for eating out .Try El Nublo restaurant,you'll enjoy it..I also like Chinese food but the Chinese restaurant in Faro 2 was very bland.Every Sunday in front of the Faro 2 there is a market,it is well worth a visit.Anything from cars to dvd's can be found there.Had a great stay in the Green Golf and hope to visit it again..
my favourite place for a real chill out break
plymptongirl , plymouth devon
Ive stayed at Green Golf many times over the last 12yrs and love it.If you are self catering take a taxi to Hypo Dino about 4 euros in a taxi its a massive hypo market where all the fruit,veg drink is much cheaper and better quality than at green golf or at faro two lots of other shops there well worth a visit.If you want a special meal out go to the Cabana tavern its about 8 euros in a taxi but well worth it the food is excellant on a thursday night two spanish gentlemen serenade you with their guitars its near the banana plantation if the taxi driver isnt sure.Im going back in November and cant wait another good night out is Garbos book with your rep Dont forget to go to Porto Morgan enjoy
Relaxing Holiday

We enjoyed our time in Green Golf, the accomodation was good but certain parts of the bungalow needed redecoration. We had damp marks on the ceiling which we reported and the maintenance team came and painted it over. The facilities are excellent and the room maids, maintenance and restaurant staff were very polite and always acknowledged you as they went by. The complex was spotlessly clean everywhere.Although it was full, it did not seem busy at any time. Unfortunately, the reception staff were let down by the rudest women who worked on the desk, with dark hair and glasses. She was unhelpful and rude, the men on reception were pleasant. Matt our Tomson rep was very good for a young guy and very knowledgable. We loved the place and will certainly return even with the witch on the desk.
Would love to stay there again

We spent our 2 weeks Christmas break at Cordial Green Bungalows and we loved it there. These lovely colorful bungalows are located in a quiet part of Maspalomas which makes it a perfect place for a relaxing stay. I was so happy we didn't go for a big hotel in a crowded noisy place! Our bungalow was just by the pool and it was facing south so we enjoyed the sun in our patio all day. We requested a bungalow by the pool when booking our stay through Travel Republic and although it wasn't guaranteed we got it so that was a nice start of our stay there. Our flight was 4.5 hours late due to a bad weather conditions and so we arrived very late at night. A nice staff member at the reception was awaiting us and checked us is quickly and smoothly. Reception staff was actually very helpful all the time, dealing with any questions or requests very kindly and efficiently. E.g. when we had a problem with a bedroom window the reception sent a nice handy man within half an hour to get it fixed. Our bungalow was very clean, comfortable enough for 3 people and well equipped for self catering guests. In the kitchen you can find all the basics for simple meals preparation e.g. pans, glasses, cutlery, electric oven, coffee machine, fridge etc. On arrival we actually decided not to cook so we bought meals tickets for few days at the reception: breakfast was 7.50 euros per person and lunch / dinner was 20 euro per person. Buffets offer a good choice of food however they seem to be a bit overpriced. They also don't really give you the opportunity to taste the local food. And they become a bit boring if you eat there for more than few days. With Faro 2 shopping center just minutes away I would say it's cheaper and easy enough to fix your own breakfast and then eat out in the evening. For the same or lower price you can get much more variety. E.g. go to Cho Juanillo restaurant in the Faro 2 - it's on the second floor and offers very nice food as well as great views over the mountains. There are also plenty of restaurants for all wallets along the boulevard near the lighthouse. As I said the bungalow was very clean and even though there were some small signs of tear and wear inside it didn't bother us at all because of the good maintenance. We had a daily maid service, towels were changed every other day, bed linen was changed few times during 14 days. One tip: bring some soap with you as there is none provided. You will also need to buy some washing up liquid. There is no air-con but the ceiling fans were absolutely fine at this time of the year (temperature around 22-25C in December). We rented a safe which was placed in the wardrobe (13 euros per week plus a refundable deposit of 10 euros - we thought the price was quite fair for a peace of mind it gives you). You can also rent a TV and a wireless internet was free. When we rented a car we could get a parking space in front of the complex for free. There are 2 swimming pools in the complex and one of them was heated. They were cleaned every morning. There were plenty of sun beds around the pools and there seemed to be no problems with getting one. We didn't spend all days in the complex as we were exploring the island, driving around, going for trips to the mountains etc however it was great to be able to come back there after a long day in the sun and enjoy a quiet evening on the patio by the pool. We were not really looking for a night entertainment however I know that every other day there were some evening shows organized in the restaurant. As other reviews say it takes around 20-30 minutes to get to the dunes and a lighthouse or around 4 euros by taxi. There are also free buses running to the beach. Overall the whole 2 weeks at Cordial Green were excellent and we would definitely stay there again if we come back to Gran Canaria. Nice, clean place, helpful staff, quiet location, no hassle so that we could enjoy our precious 2 weeks in the sun on this beautiful island - it was all we were looking for and we got it in 100%.
Enjoyed the stay very much
fussyfiona , Glasgow
I had 6 nights here and would recommend to people. The complex, in my opinion, is well situated, I was in bungalow number 25, it was nice and peaceful. As it was December, they appeared not to be using the apartments that were north facing and beside the road, I can understand people's annoyance if they were here in summer and got one of these apartments! I could walk to the Faro Shopping Centre in 5 minutes or the beach in Maspalomas in around 20. The local buses are excellent and was only 1.20 to get to PDI. The kitchens are small but i don't go on holiday to cook! It was perfectly sufficient for my needs, I took a small travel electric kettle and didn't need to use the one provided for the hob! Maybe some folk get annoyed about having to rent the TV but again, I don;t go on holiday to watch TV! I found the fixtures and fittings modern and the apartments were clean. i had no issue with any beasties in the room! The shower room was great and I always had enough hot water for 2 showers a day. Beds were comfy but seemed to move a lot on the wheels! Lovely patio area and also a balcony upstairs. Swimming pool (heated) was excellent, lovely to go and cool down in it after a day in the sun. Gardens are well maintained. I only went into reception to check in and out and both occasions were fine, I didn't use the bar or eat at the complex. The on site supermarket was fine for basics, I didn't agree with others that it was massively over-priced. The maids visited every day apart from Christmas day, my sheets and towels were changed every 2nd day. Sofa in the living room was comfy, I managed a wee nap on it! I booked the accomodation myself, not thro any travel agent and had no issues at all. It is a 2 star establishment and I felt it was better than that, it looked a heck of a lot better than a lot of places I walked past, I will most definately return another time. It suited me and what I was looking for, if you want to go abroad and be able to cook a 5 course meal, watch TV and be waited on hand and foot then don;t go here!
Highly recommended

The complex was very clean very pretty. Just like the pictures if not even better. Took my parents and gf to celebrate my 30th birthday and everyone was full of praise for "Green Golf" it was much better than all the other apartments / hotels we walked past. Excellent beach easy walk away 15-25mins. Allot of nudes though and current is strong. Cheap taxis everywhere and nice food by the lighthouse in Faro. All in all we had a lovely time. We were lucky and had an apartmant by the pool which was a bonus but honestly they all looked nice and effort had been made to plant flowers etc around the whole complex. My only criticism was that there was no soap in the toilets (male and female) in the bar / pool area which is unacceptable and was a shame otherwise it would of got top marks because everthing else is brilliant. Anyone who complains about this place needs a reality check because for the money we paid Thomson, a few hundred each, it was amazing value.
Schöner Urlaub in Maspalomas
Un comentarista de eurosun.de ,
Wir waren bis auf das Einchecken sehr zufrieden wobei ich jetzt denke wen sie uns wenigstens etwas zu Trinken an der Bar (nicht alkoholisch) kostenfrei angeboten hätten, das man die Zeit besser überbrückt das wäre schon ok gewesen. Uns hat man halt informiert das wir so bis 13 Uhr warten müssen und fertig. Das fanden wir nicht unbedingt Servicegerecht. Fazit Service: Wir kamen so gegen 11 Uhr an und mussten noch bis kurz nach 13 Uhr warten bis das Zimmer frei war.Man hatte desweiteren den Eindruck als würde es niemanden so wirklich interessieren das man schon gegen 6 Uhr losgeflogen war und deshalb schon seit der letzten Nacht unterwegs war,und somit wirklich dankbar gewesen wäre wenn das Personal mal aus dem Knick gekommen wäre.Aber das Meer,der Strand Playa del Ingles,Maspalomas und die angrezenden Bay´s von Puerto Rico und Puerto de Mogan entschädigen alles. Es war einfach sehenswert,denn noch immer schweift man in Gedanken über die Dünen von Maspalomas oder denkt zurück an die mit dem Leihwagen gefahrene Touren,einmal um die Insel und einmal Mitten durch. Der Blick bei von den Bergen an der Küste von Agaete richtung Tenerriffa einfach wunderschön. Fazit Gastronomie: Das Essen konnte ich nicht anders Bewerten da wir nur Frühstück als Leistung dabei hatten.Da wir nicht nur Strandlieger sind sondern gerne was von der Gegend sehen wo wir Urlaub machen hatten wir uns bewusst vorher so entschieden jeden Tag wo anders zu Abend zu essen. Fazit Hotel: Für uns war die Anlage nicht so wichtig da wir die meiste Zeit unterwegs waren, doch wir waren über die Sauberkeit und das Design der Anlage wie auch der Bungalows sehr positiv überrascht. Es war wirklich sehr sehr schön. Fazit Hotellage: Per Fluglinie betrachtet liegt man eigentlich nicht so weit vom Strand entfernt,da sich dazwischen wie der Name der Strasse schon verrät ein Golfplatz befindet ist es ein kleiner Umweg von ca.2-3 Kilometern. Es fahren aber Täglich Busse (direkt vor dem Hotel befindet sich eine Bushaltestelle) Maspalomas-Strand und Playa del Ingles und das für Hotelgäste kostenfrei. Mit dem Taxi je nach Tageszeit zwischen 2,50 und 3,50 Euro bis zum Strand. Wem das zu viel ist der soll zu Hause bleiben und Fahrrad fahren! Fazit Strand: Sehenswert ist natürlich auch Puerto Rico oder Puerto de Mogan.

very clean and well presented apartments. Some in the sun and some in the shade, thats life. Would advise to go whatever age etc. Only one drawback is the price of the on site supermarket-very expensive, but get away from the pool and walk to a near by supermarket in Faro two. Restaurants at Faro (lighthouse turn right ) very good. On this of many occasions have noticed vast price increase coupled with the exchange rate.
Great stay again at the Green Golf

I stayed at the Green Golf 2 years ago and enjoyed it so much I stayed there again this year. Lovely bright, clean apartments within walking distance of the dunes/camel rides and plenty of restaurants nearby. Courtesy buses to the beach and to Playes De Ingles though its only a 20/30 minute walk down to the beach. We went self-catering though there is a half board option - we went for the buffet one night which was okay but nothing special - much better to eat out for the same price (12.50 euros each). Would definately recommend for a quiet holiday - but if you prefer the nightlife then Playes de Ingles would suit you better.

Really nice appartments on two storeys. Maid service excellent. We didn't use the restaurant although it looked good. Pool area clean - pools excellent. Facilities for self catering are good. Decent shop on site. Faro 2 Supermarket only 5 mins away. Beach at Maspalomas, Meloneras and Centre of Playa del Ingles all only 2km walk away. Taxi's only £3.50 - £4, and are everywhere. Free bus to beach, although we walked back most days, although it is probably too far for most people. Nearest restaurants at Faro 2, and are reasonable. Plenty of really good restaurants at Meloneras, which also have entertainment. A must at sunset time. Yumbo Centre also has lots of bars and restaurants - very gay in evenings and quite raunchy. Go with an open mind and you will have fun. Resort was quiet in October (due to downturn??) as were the appartments. All nationalities present which was nice - Scandanavian majority. Beach at Maspalomas is huge and is mostly nude ( also a gay section), as are the dunes. It was beautiful weather when we were there (sunny 26 - 32 degs every day) and beach was popular, although its so big you can have a section to yourself. Be aware that part of the dunes is a definite cruising area - this is quite openly practiced. We hired a car for a day and toured the island. The interior is really mountainous with superb views, although clouds can appear from nowhere. West Coast Road is a must. Maspalomas is a fabulous resort with something for everyone and I would recommend it. We shall definitely be going back.
You Cannot fault this place

This place is a wee hidden gem. Beautiful setting with two brilliant pools to choose from. We went on a two wk trip and feel a lot more relaxedand healthy for it. The staff are fantastic and if i could have those housemaids in my hotel I would be a happy man. Hardest job in the house and they really do work their socks off. If you dont enjoy the cordial green then I'm afraid the problem lies with you and not the establishment. Would recommend to anyone and we are already planning next years trip for a month this time. Cant wait
Great holiday had by all we'll definatly be going back

We had a really pleasant stay at this hotel. Spacious clean rooms, good bathroom. One thing we did not like was payble TV-set. It's not ok for the hotel of this category....
Great accommodation in lovely location
NN_2008 , Scotland
The Cordial Green Golf apartments are a great place to stay. I went with my girlfriend in August 2009, and found the apartments to be well kept, modern, and very clean. We had a road facing apartment which many of the reviews on here complain about. Both my girlfriend and I didn't find the noise from the road all that annoying, it was mainly in the early morning you would hear the traffic go past. I guess if you live in a town or city you are used to this anyway. We spent little time in our apartment as the call of the pool and exploring the local area was too much. There are two pools, both large and lovely to swim/laze in. The staff we dealt with were very pleasant and helpful. We sampled the hotel food on two nights and some lunchtimes and found it to be fine, not 5* dinning but it was good nonetheless. Taxi's are easy to come by outside of the hotel and cost 3-4 euros to most local areas in Maspalomas and Playa del Ingles. My girlfriend and I found that Meleronas was a lovely place with great restaurants by the beach. The only downside to the apartments is there is no air conditioning. There is a roof fan downstairs and up in the bedroom but they don't really cool the rooms too well as their maximum speed was quite slow! I think in that heat you really need air conditioning so that you feel comfortable when you go back to your room. Thats why I am giving the hotel 4 stars and not 5. That said, it was still bearable, your body just gets used to it.
An Expedia Traveler ,
insgesamt waren für unsere Erwartungen zufrieden leider ließ die Sauberkeit schon beim Ankommen sehr zu wünschen übrig.Auch die Lösung mit der Schlafcouch war nicht optimal.Eine Katastrophe war die Dusche ,nach deren benutzung das Bad dann schwamm,Von Sanierung nict viel zu sehen.

Clean, great pool and amazing value for money
corkesw , Manchester
Booked this as a cheap and cheerful last minute package so expectation wasn't too high. As it turns out that didn't really matter as the place was great. We had a one bed bungalow which slept up to three. Downstairs there is a small lounge/kitchenette with sofa that is big enough to sleep one. Upstairs were the bathroom (shower, basin, toilet) and a twin room with balcony. The bungalows are relatively new so they were in good condition and spotlessly clean. Outside there was a small garden and seating area overlooking the pool. There were two pools both of which were exceptionally clean. The location is a bit further out than you might want if you are going for the nightlife but a taxi to Yumbo was about 3.50 (or a walk of about half an hour). We got a taxi most nights which was fine and plenty drive by so they're really easy to hail. It's also really near to the dunes and beach of Maspalomas.
Lovely clean quiet place to stay
young_sun_lover, Galway
My boyfriend and I , both 23 stayed at the cordial green golf in May 2008. We had a brilliant time there. We were really pleasently surprised with the accomodation. The bungallows were very clean and nicely decorated. The pool area was lovely, with 2 very big swimming pools and the complex was very quiet for our entire stay. I would recommend anyone to stay in Maspalomas rather than Playa del Ingles when going to Gran Canaria. As a young couple we did want to have a few nights out on the town and considered staying where all the action was in Playa del Ingles. Im so glad we didn't, I didnt like the place at all. The cordial was only a short cheap taxi ride away so you can easily go there if you want, we didnt go back after going out there once! I would highly recommend the cordial green golf bungalows to anyone.

Séjour très agréable. Beaucoup de touristes allemands, mais pour ce qui est de l'hotel, il n'y a rien à redire.
Amazing....Can't priase Green Golf highly enough!
lishyandoscar, Ireland
Just returned from our second visit to the Green Golf and all I can say is that i'm already looking forward to our next holiday there. This complex is so relaxing and quiet, perfect to unwind and relax. There are 2 large pools and a childrens pool, plenty of sun loungers and even sheltered areas. The gardeners and maintence people do an amazing job as this complex is beautiful and spotless. The accomadation is perfect, if a bit small. The kitchen is well stocked, with fridge and cooker and has almost everything one would need....except an electric kettle, kettle supplied has to be boiled on the cooker. We didn't hire a tv, I do know there is only 1 english news channel and anyway a break from all the 'recession' talk is wonderful! The bathroom and bedroom are located upstairs where you also have a little balcony. The bedroom is a bit on the small size but beds are comfortable and there is good wardrobe space. Hire a safe from reception, costs 23 and 10 is returned when you check out. We never ate in the restaurant so I can't comment. The supermarket is expensive but fine for water and the basics, we found the supermarket in the Faro 2 shopping centre(just 5 min walk) much better value with a great selection of good....try the pate and cheeses form the deli counter! Maspalomas and Playa Del Ingles beach are just a quick free bus trip away and just 3-4 in a taxi. Nightlife was very quiet when we were there but we did go to Roma on Playa Del Ingles beach a couple of nights to see the free Elvis show (on every night at 11pm).....great fun and if you are a real die-hard fan have your photo taken with Elvis AKA Tom after the show...He is excellent and such a nice guy! We had a fantasic time and i would recommed Green Golf to anybody!
couldn't fault these bungalows, had a great time
tomee26, scotland
well maintained bungalows with 2 large swimming pools, plenty of sun loungers if you want to chill out by the pool, we went bed + breakfast, breakfast was available until 10.30 with a good choice of food! never had dinner/lunch there so can't comment on that, we hired a car for the week so seen most of the island including the capital city of las palmas, also went up the mountain roads seen the caves and scenery, taxi from the bungalows to the main resort of playa del ingles or maspalomas was only 3euro so not a great expense. would go back to these bungalows, seen some previous comments on north facing rooms so would probably try and get south facing if you were going to sit in your veranda all day!
cep30, portsmouth
this place was fantastic the complex has 2 big swimming pools with plenty of space and sunloungers so you could always get a place by the pol. we were lucky and had a bungalow that faced out to the pool. our little boy loved it. it was very easy to get about in gran canaria we hired a car so saw alot of the island which is probably a better way to do it, the only problem is there was not much parking at the hotel in the summer months could be more of a problem. our bungalow was compact but we were rarely in there and it was only for 2 weeks so you can deal with it. the food accross whole island was not great but again its 2 weeks, the weather and beaches more than made up for bad food. and dont think its any more expensive than any where in euro at the moment.
mattandkaren, yorkshire
hey all just returned from our stay at this fantastic place, upon arrival at the grren golf the recpeption was spotless and modern with staff who could speak perfect english and was only too happy to help. check in was quick and all the information needed was given to you right away, the bungalows were spotless and modernly decorated. optional safe in the bungalow if needed which definately i would advise as we spoke to a family who had 300 pounds stolen from their room as they didnt hire a safe. the cost is only 13 euros for the week with a 10 euro returnable deposit. the grounds and the swimming pool were spotless and the pool was warm enough to swim all day in, as our little girl showed us we couldnt get her out fo it lol. cant stress enough how great this place is and if it wasnt for the euro we would definately go back. maspalomas itself is quite baron, not alot to do unless you want to pay extortionate price with the rep. we was gonna book the camel rides with the rep, for my wife, daughter and i was gonna cost 78 pounds, we strolled down the place which is on the way to the beach and it cost us 32 pounds, massive difference. the evening entertainment was ok but not brilliant but was something to do. we went self catering but as the week went on we found ourselves eating in the restaurant every night at a price of 25 euros and our daughter free. was the cheapest option and definately the best as the food was really good, barbecue night on wednesdays and the meat is fantastic. the euro is really killing this place as a loaf of bread was 3 pounds 50. please take as much food etc with you as you can or you will be stung once in resort.
Lovely complex - exceeded my expectations
Striker54, Leicestershire, England
We stayed here for a week in April and were very impressed. The bungalows are actually not bungalows at all but are small 2 storey apartments. While our 2-3 person apartment was compact (be prepeared for some shuffling around each other up in the bedroom), it was very clean, modern and quite funky in its decor. We were lucky enough to face out on to one of the pools. Every apartment has a tiny garden and patio at the front which is perfect for munching your breakfast or having an evening drink or 7. Upstairs the bathroom was light with a huge mirror - which for once didn't make me look like I'd been dead 6 weeks. There was no bath but the shower pressure was great - although it got a bit tiresome after I turned off the water with my bottom for the 2,000th time. The pools are lovely. I found them very cold but it's not a complaint really. I think I'm just feeble. I particularly loved the fact that I only had to stumble approx. 5 yards back to my apartment at the end of the day. My one tip for the complex is to take a lilo or padded sunlounging mat with you because we found the sunloungers incredibly uncomfortable. I needed a knee replacement after day one. I know other people felt the same because so many of us were using lilos bought in the minimarket on site to improve them. In general though the whole pool/sunbathing area is lovely. As other reviewers have mentioned, most of our fellow holidaymakers were German but I liked that because they were all pleasant and well behaved! We had a couple of things in our apartment that needed fixing (a fuse blew, a couple of wall switches were broken) and although it was 7.30 pm when we reported the problems, someone came and sorted them immediately. Very impressive. The minimarket on site and the supermarket at the Faro 2 centre are extortionately priced. Take the essentials with you. It was £2 for a bottle of diet coke, £2 for a medium-sized bag of crisps and I ended up spending £17 purely on bread, milk, cheese, cornflakes and water. We didn't manage to find a cheap supermarket anywhere so just ended up living on bread and cheese! Yes the Faro centre (a few shops and restaurants) is a 7-10 min walk away but I didn't rate it. It was quite tacky/seedy. You're better off getting a taxi in to Playa Del Ingles or down to the beach area of Maspalomas (Faro De Maspalomas) for dinner. (Like another reviewer I recommend El Gaucho Steak House in PDI) Taxis are easily hailed from right outside the hotel but it was a shame there weren't nice bars/shops within closer walking distance. HOWEVER - this was a price I was happy to pay to be away from the tackier areas of PDI / Maspalomas. Overall we loved our holiday and I would recommend The Cordial Green Golf to anyone wanting a quiet, relaxing laze in the sun. It was comfortable, clean and for the price quite chic I thought. It exceeded my expectations.
Ruhig und Relaxed
An Expedia Traveler,
Super Möglichkeit zum Relaxen und Erholen. Animation gibt es nicht. Absolute Ruhe, ausschlafen gewährleistet. Essen war o.k. Bewirtung immer freundlich. Anlage sehr hübsch und gepflegt. Im April nur ca. 50% belegt daher kein Stress im Restaurant ohne Warteschlangen. Wir werden wieder kommen. Achtung Apartmentanlage hat keine vier Sterne, sondern nur zwei Schlüssel ist aber trotzdem empfehlenswert da sehr sauber mit viel Platz. Fernsehen muß extra bezahlt werden mit 2/ Tag mit 30cm Bild echt ein Witz, Etap bietet mehr. Trotzdem, alles sauber mit viel Platz für die Familie und günstigem Supermarkt in der Nähe. Taxi fahren sehr günstig. Resume: Hoher Erholungswert mit Wierdkommeffekt.

A wonderful stay ........
miaburg, Cambridgeshire
We have just (this morning) arrived back from a week at the Cordial Green Golf Bungalows in Maspalomas. We went as a small group, my wife and I and our 3 year old son, and a couple of our friends and their 2 year old daughter. Booked via First Choice, the complex was recommended by the extremely helpful sales rep in their Staines travel shop, who pre-booked our seats together on the flights, and two adjacent pool-view bungalows. We had an excellent holiday. The complex is relatively quiet, very clean, very welcoming and well placed for the beach at Maspalomas. Anyone looking for more than a relaxing sun-sea-sand-pool style holiday should probably look elsewhere. The accommodation 'Bungalows' they are not! Each unit is on two floors, twin bedroom and shower room/loo upstairs and living room/kitchenette downstairs, with a sofa that sleeps one (six foot) adult. There is space for a standard sized travel cot in the bedroom if the twin beds are pushed together (our friends' daughter used one all week). Plenty of room for a small family or 3 adults sharing. With three of everything in the crockery cupboard, they are clearly not designed for more! The bungalows were extremely clean on arrival, and we witnessed the next door bungalow being cleaned while we were waiting to leave, and they do a 'proper job'! Towels were provided and they and the bedding were changed regularly. Daily maid service in the week, which included washing the floors. TVs are available, but have to be paid for, so we didn't bother. Having small children with us, we took the half board option so can't really comment on the facilities for self catering, but with only two electric rings and a toaster, eating out would probably be preferable! However even on half board it was excellent to have a fridge, kettle and toaster on hand to rustle up a cup of tea or a snack for hungry kids, or parents! Complex For once the place looks exactly as it does in the brochures, or Cordial's own website! The bungalows are situated around two big (for this sort of resort) pools, some facing towards them, some away (either facing the road or the fantastic golf course next door). I would suggest asking for a pool view, or if that isn't your thing a view of the golf course for maximum peace! The pools themselves were excellent. Cleaned every day, you couldn't fault them. One was heated, but even the unheated one was perfectly usable after you got over the first cold shock, and kept moving! In addition to the two main pools there was a small 'baby' pool, which was also heated. However, the pool heating was switched off at the end of March (halfway through our stay) whilst the very hot weather meant this didn't matter, the baby pool became a little chilly for anything more than a quick splash about before running for the towels. Around the pools and bungalows the gardens are well-kept and add a nice splash of colour. Each bungalow has a small 'terrace' area in front of it encircled by a low (flowering) hedge, and has climbing plants, also flowering, above the French windows. Overall the complex felt clean, well looked after and safe. Food As said above, we took the half board option. Given the parlous state of the £ at the moment, it was probably quite a bit cheaper than eating out for a week! Many reviewers on here seem to dislike the food at the complex, but we thought it was OK. Not Cordon Bleu, but you are not paying that kind of price. Given the large number of German and Scandinavian guests in Gran Canaria, the food did tend towards their tastes. There was a large selection on offer at breakfast, including sliced meats, cheese and breads, as well as croissants, cereals, plenty of fruit or a full fry-up. For dinner there were usually three or four (or more) main course choices, either fish, pasta or meat, plus salad bar and sundry cold platters for starters. Sweets were a bit limited, usually to one choice (usually fruit based) or ice-cream, but the ice-cream was lovely, and a hit with the kids! Wednesday night was BBQ night, and that was particularly good. Vegetarian, however, may want to go self-catering. Canarian food isn't well known for it's veggie options, and this was no exception. Even the side vegetable dishes invariably contained some meat sprinkled through them! There was always plenty of food, nobody stopped you going back for seconds, and it was always hot (in contradiction to some other reviews - including one person who it appears was there the exact same week we were!). Service Excellent. The reception staff were very helpful, and everyone on the complex, from the waiting staff to the pool staff and bungalow cleaners seemed very friendly and helpful, and many always said a cheery 'hola' to adults and children alike. In answer to some more negative reviews, I can only think that it helps if you treat them as people and not servants. Entertainment Not top-notch but quite fun in a cheesy way. Having very young children we did not see much of it, but the lady who ran a little disco for the kids twice in the week was great, and the children loved it. During weekdays there is a 'mini-club' - not much more than a few tables for the younger kids to sit at and draw stuff, but to be honest given the pools and the beach, why would they want anything else? Locality From the complex it is only about 20 minutes' walk (with pushchairs) to the beach at Maspalomas. This is excellent, with fine clean sand, lots of sun loungers and parasols if you want them, the usual cheesy seafront shops and some nice-looking restaurants and bars. There is a regular free coach from outside the complex to the beach, useful if you can't face the walk, or it's just too hot. Another free coach takes you into Playa des Ingles, if you are looking for that sort of thing. The beach there is also excellent (with fine views of the famous dunes). The nearest 'shopping centre' to the complex is Faro 2. Stand on the top of the steps outside Reception and you can see it. It has a decent supermarket - cheaper than the small one in the complex, which is just full of imported German food, priced accordingly. Faro 2 also has a number of restaurants and bars, although we didn't sample them. It has a bit of a run-down look and feel, which is a shame, but is handy for food shopping. The best shopping centre we found was on the sea front in Maspalomas. Walking past the lighthouse along the promenade, it's on your right. A good selection of shops and another supermarket (although it's too far to carry those big bottles of water back to the complex!). So in all, we though it was an excellent family holiday. If you want to relax in the sun, I would definitely recommend the Green Golf Bungalows for that sort of thing.
Returned again and was nt disappointed
howty4, lake district
The green golf has maintained its high standards since we were last there, have just returned and often revisiting a place you really enjoyed can be a hugh disappointment but not for us. The staff have continued to maintain their standards from reception to cleaning/maintenance personnel. As hoteliers in the UK we are fastidious about the cleanliness and the bungalow and complex met our standards. The Green golf is value for money - you get more in our opinion than expected , the pool and gardens are beautiful with plenty of space and sunbeds to relax and enjoy , we wanted peace and quiet and got that. The only moan is the cost outside the complex -prices have shot up - be warned especially in the supermarkets watch out and try and find a spar if you can as they were the most reasonable. Eating out is reasonable but shop around and watch for the drink prices 2euro50 for small water which can be bought for 0.25 in spar - gone are the days of large spirits and little prices !! Finally this place suits those who want peace and relaxation yet is close enough to walk to bars /restaurants and gives you value .
Central & Relaxing
terryant, Wexford, Ireland
We stayed at the Green Golf for 2 weeks. Dec 27th to Jan 10th. "The Bungalow & Facilities" Overall I would recommend this place to anyone for a quiet relaxing break with or without kids. It is close to nightlife as well so if you are not wanting to stay in the middle of the hustle and bustle and would like a bit of both it is perfect. Bungalows were very clean and just the right space. The bungalows are terraced two storeys with kitchen/sitting room downstairs and bedroom and washroom upstairs. They were cleaned each day except the main public holidays which we didn't mind as we didn't expect somebody to be up on New Years morning to dress or bed. There are two large pools and two seperate pools for young children all were cleaned each day. One was slightly heated which was nice as at this time of year the water is quite cold. Another reviewer said they did not know if it was heated or not...ok it was a bit chilly to get in at first but once in it was great and yes it is heated. I have yet to get into a very warm pool when it's in Winter unless it's a hot tub. We didn't eat within the main area as we tended to go out every night around Playa de Linges and around the Maspalomas Light House area so I can't comment on the complex food. The complex also has it's own supermarket but unless you are just badly in need of one or two things I wouldn't shop there as its expensive. In response to another reviewers comment that it was noisy I can say the complete opposite, although all the surrounding bungalows were in use we had no problems with noise levels. Half of bungalows face each other with the pool in the middle and at the back they face the golf course. Towards the front some face onto a private road especially for the hotel and running parrallel outside of this is the public road but this leads to a dead end so traffic is minimal. "Shopping" As mentioned the complex minimarket is expensive. We did our shopping in Faro2, 5 - 10minute walk away, which was cheaper but be aware, some foreign items are priced very high so make sure you know the price of the item before you buy. In Faro 2 there are a number of shops including a sports shop, jewellery shop, restaurants, bars, entertainment, internet access etc. Anything you need basically. As this is a tourist destination be prepared to pay tourist prices however. For more shopping Playa de Linges is a 4.50 taxi ride away and has a large selection of all various shops or Maspalomas is a 20 minute walk or a 3.50 taxi fare where you will find the designer stores like Hugo Boss etc. and a range of expensive and inexpensive shops all around the lighthouse area. "Dining" We ate in Faro2 a few nights, food is good there and they are the usual touristy restaurants dishing up a range on their menus. Good value and good atmosphere. We ate in Piz Paz and the Steakhouse, nothing to complain about in either. If you want more of a range however go into Playa deLinges. Down along by the beach there are a range of touristy restaurants and bars and again we had no complaints although we ate there only one night. For something more special though go to the lighthouse area in Maspalomas which is where we spent most of our eating out budget. With the lighthouse and beach directly in front of you either swing left for the 'touristy' restaurants and a couple of places that do some really nice crepes, or go right where the designer shops are and some really nice restaurants and a pub called the 19th hole where there is good fun most nights. We ate in all the restaurants here and I would recommend most 'Terraza Boulevard' for great food for good value with very friendly service. I would not recommend Grill Faro however as the service was dreadful here. We waited for a half hour following our staters for the plates to be collected and a further half an hour for our main course. I asked for a well done steak here and I got a steak that was like it was out of the fridge. I asked for it to be put back on the pan and the waiter was not impressed at all and returned after 15 minutes with a well done steak that was more cooked but still rare and walked away without a care. Avoid at all costs. All of the other restaurants along this strip were very good however. "Beach & Waterpark" The beach of Maspalomas is beside the lighthouse and is a nice 20 minute walk but you can get a free shuttle bus just outside the complex, I think this may only be until 12 or 1pm, I stand to be corrected. Other than that a taxi will take you there for approx. 3.50. If you want some watersports Playa de Linges beach is a taxi ride away for 4.50 (not really walkable). most watersports are catered for except Parasailing which is located in Peurto Rico, a bus journey away. Jetskis are available for 50 for 20 minutes which is enough but they are great fun. If you are looking for waterparks, Gran Canaria has them but only one is open in Winter. Aquapark has all the slides you need and is good fun. A taxi will take you there for about 5 - 6. If you want to come back a second day make sure and go to the information centre there and you can get re-entry for 6 per person rather than the 25 approx. it costs for your first visit. Aquapark is a good day out but bring food as it's expensive here like all waterparks. A good pair of strap on sandles will serve you well here also as the ground can be rough on your feet at times. "Travelling the Island" The public transport system is great here with buses constantly going around the Island. Don't be afraid to go up to Peurto Mogan which is up the east coast. Nice little place with a nice beach. We hired a car for three days to catch the sights and this was great. There is some fantastic scenery within the hills but be prepared for the seemingly endless winding roads and the severe drop at the road edge. Don't be put off though, all roads have barriers and quite safe so you won't just fall off the cliff face.The landscape is quite barron and brown but still well worth a look. If you want to see the crater and you are driving go up the west of the island on the motorway and go down from Las Palmas. The tour guides or reception will tell you this. If not, get the Thompson guide in reception and in this they have car hire guides that will tell you the name of the area where the crater is located, I can't remember. On your way up to the viewpoint there is a lovely restaurant and food looked great. Unfortunately we ate in Las Palmas on our way as we didn't know this was here. If you are looking for beaches stay on the south side of the island. The west side is mostly industrial until you get up to Las Palmas. Las Palmas was ok but we weren't on holiday to see the city so I can't help much here. A quick visit told us it was windy and the beach rocky! The east side of the island has lovely beaches alond the south east corner and some nice little villages up higher. Well worth a look especially if you are on a two week break. "Nightlife" Nightlife is never too far away in Playa de Linges or Maspalomas. If your looking for the lively night life go into Playa de Linges where there is everything you need (More than enough!). "Handy Directions when your new!!" To Faro2: With Reception directly behind you walk straight across the public road and across the field (4 mins). Cross the road and walk through what looks like the way into another housing estate/complex and continue straight (4mins). From reception of Green Golf you are literally almost walking straight all the way to Faro2. Just cross the road, don't follow it! To Maspalomas: From reception turn left on the public road (2-3mins). At the T junction go left again (around the golf club) (5 mins). Go through the roundabout and across the bridge (crossing the dry river) and go left, along the bank of the dry river. Continue straight for 10-15 minutes straight into Maspalomas.
Quality Time Away
Livin_it_Large, London
My Girlfriend and I stayed at the Bungalows Cordial Green Golf (1st Nov - 14th Nov 08). This was our second visit to Gran Canaria and wasn't disappointed to find the quite resort of Maspalomas had remained picturesque as we remembered it to be back in 2005. After reading various reviews on the Bungalows we had mentally prepared ourselves for a compact bungalow with limited space, however on arrival we were lucky to be allocated a pool facing bungalow that we later learnt were slightly larger then some of the others. It had everything you needed for a self catering holiday and was cleaned regularly. We regularly took a 10 -20 min walk to Melonores left from the bungalows and follow the signs or turn right from the bungalows up the hill towards Playa del Ingles when you come to the 2nd round about there is a spar on your left we found this to be cheaper the shop at Faro2 or onsite. When eating out we tried a lot of restaurants but out favs were El Duke and Babados. If you want a nice quite drink after your meal next door to El Duke is a small place which looks like someone living room I think it is called Mamola??? nice atmosphere. Also Sparkles (comedy drag show) in the Yumbo is a laugh but you do have to have a open mind and not be easily shocked lol. We also took a bus to Puerto de Mogán which is a beautiful quiet fishing resort and visited the Friday Market they have down there once you have been to one market they are all much of a same. Stay in Maspalomas if you want to stay in a quite resort but want to be able to get to the night life of the other resorts.
great place, PilarFrankfurt
The location has bungalows (and ONLY bungalows!!) and therefore guests do not feal ghettoed. The restaurant and bar are o.k.. Pool is great and they check quality each morning and clean the pool. The whole complex is very clean. Service is o.k., people are very friendly. They speak German, Netherlands, English and Spain. Each evening there is an evening show, nothing too fancy, but good entertainment. Price-performance ratio is very good. Therefore (and because I was happy with everything) I ranked the location with five bullets. To the sea it is less than 2 km. We rented bicycletts in the nearby Faro2 shopping an restaurant center and could combine both, quiet location AND beachside with it's nice restaurants. Although there is a minimarket food was cheaper in Faro2. Unless buying food (very good german bread in a german bakery!!) we did not like Faro2. Too big, nothing cosy. Good restaurants can be found near the faro. There at the seaside you can follow the promenade to the left for 2 km. A nice way for walking, too. Here you can finde small restaurants and cafes and you have lot's of opportunities for shopping. At the end of the promenade we found "our" nice restaurant. It is the last one in Meloneras at the seaside. Very, very nice. And: prices are lower than near the faro. You may also turn right when coming to the seaside. There you can walk alongside the waterline and the spectacular dunes 7.5 km to Playa las Inglés. Playa las Inglés would not be my preferred place to stay (too many people squeezed into houses that have 7, 8 or 10 floors) but the walk alongside seaside is great. From the bungalows to the seaside Maspalomas Faro as well to Las Inglès there are shuttle busses for free. If you are not up for discotheques and heavy drinking but want to relax Cordial Green Golf is the place to go.
1st time,but not my last
karlek, cork,ireland
I stayed in the Green Golf bungalows (aka. Cordial Green Golf apartments) in the first week of October and it was the nicest place that I have ever stayed in.I travel to Gran Canaria 3 or 4 times a year,and I have been in all types of accomodation,good and bad,but this was the best. Very clean,plenty of space by the poolside.It has a well stocked supermarket on the complex.Friendly and efficent staff. The apartment was well maintained.The sofa was very comfortable, as a sofa or as a bed should you need it.The beds were very comfortable.Plenty of towels provided for the bathroom. Kitchen had the usual utensils,2 ring cooker,whistle kettle,fridge etc.The air conditioning was provided by a multi-speed ceiling fan in the downstairs and in the upstairs bedroom which was more than adequate should you need to use it.There was a large security safe(for rent) in the wardrobe with plenty of space for your money,laptop etc. Television was rented with the usual 2 english language news channels being the choice,including other foreign language channels. Night time there was no noise or disturbance of any kind. Taxis are frequent should you wish to go to playa del ingles around 3 euros or so.It is a long way to the beach but bus shuttle services are provided at no extra cost. As I was self catering and on a budget I didn't eat in the complex restaurant so I cant comment on it. Nearby is the Faro2 shopping centre with the usual selection of shops and restaurants.There are 2 supermarkets in the centre which are very expensive if you are on a budget.There are many Spar supermarkets in the general area which offer much better value.For meals I found Piz Paz the best restaurant in Faro2 for eating.Good choice of menu with huge servings and good value for money..I will certainly go back to Green Golf again
wanna go back tomoz
crazycline, andover
just got back from the green golf apt and feeling really sad, we wish we were back there, i went with my boyfriend and had a fab time, apt's are very nice and maid comes 5 times a week, if ur lucky she even does ur washing up..lol There is a ceiling fan downstarts and upstairs which really makes a difference, we found the number 1 was the fasted speed and not 3 as we 1st thought. The beach is a five min taxi and only 3 euro,s.For night time there is a bar in faro 2 called The Banana bar and its fantastic, the bar staff Paco, Sergio and Evean are soooooo funny and make u so welcome.... we will defo be coming back Cheryl and Shawn

I have stayed at these bungalows a few times and on every occasion i have enjoyed my stay. The reception staff are friendly and speak excellent English. The reception is however reached by steps which if you are disabled would give problems. The bungalows are a good size and cleaned to a high standard. They are comfortable and are ideal for long stays. The patio areas are private and relaxing. The pools and sun bathing areas are excellent and not over crowded. The Faro 2 shopping/restraurant area is a 10 mins walk away, Maspalomas sand dunes is around 20 to 25 mins walk along a traffic free path. Taxis are cheap and plentiful. Great place to stay.

After landing at 4am in the morning, and having to wait 1 and a half hours for our luggage, we got on the coach and by 6:30 am we were finally at the hotel. As it was still dark, we did not see much of the hotel to begin with. So we checked in and got some shut eye as we were stupidly tired! We woke up and were plesantly surprised by the apartments. Finally awake, we could properly look at it. The apartments were fantastic. Every apartment was duplex style, all had basic SC equiptment and a tv. They also had an inbuilt radio, it did only play a spanish radio station, but always good to go local! The complex was medium sized. And lovely decor both inside and out. The entrance area was a terrace and a small balcony on the upstairs big enough to dry clothes. But with 2 large pools and plenty of sunloungers. This was perfect as we did not spend alot of time in the actual apartments. We were on half board, but found it easier for my self and my partner to eat out as we like to explore the area and the island. The food was basic, continental and cooked. So if we did stay a few times, then it is good to eat there. But as we had a car, we went venturing. Overall the hotel/apartments were fabulous! Very clean and great service. The complex was secure as we had a key card to get through gates, so it felt safe. Maspalomas is a fabulous resort. The beach was about a 30 min walk, which i know for some could be a problem, but dont let that put you off. its a pleasent walk to the beach and a great way to get a tan and lose weight on the way. Supermarket is onsite and tghere are a few close by. Shopping centre is about a 15 min walk. Well worth a walk on the sand dunes and if you are up for it, a walk on them to Playa del ingles. But this can take up a full day so be weary! If you dont like walking or doing something on a hol, DONT DO IT. I burnt my feet on the sandunes and it was painful. But, was still enjoyable as you dont realise until you get back. its quick into Playa, taxi is roughly 3 euro if you dont want to walk. Walking is not far, but up a hill. best advise, get a car, and go shopping in Las palmas, there are plenty of fantastic shops and las palmas has plenty to offer. it has a huge beach where the locals go to unwind. Have a trip upto Rock Nueblos (i think) it is a drive but well worth it. if you are weary with driving, go from the north as the south (GC600) is very scary and windy, we started on this route, but my phone battery died and did not fancy being stuck there. plus, buses go down there, so on a tight spot, can get a bit scary.
"We love it so much, we returned for 2 more week's" !!!.
bjanalan, cheshire
We had stayed at Cordial green Golf for the first time & with "our teenage grandaughter", for 2 week's ( end of May/ 1st week of June), last year 2007, & loved every aspect of our holiday, that we returned again this year, hubby & myself for 2 week's, ( end of May/ 1st week June).The standard of cleanliness in our 'Duplex', patio, pool, & surrounding area is first class !!!. At the bar & food area, again, first class, & service really good,friendly & helpful !!!.At the reception area, there is 24 hour assistance, & friendly, very helpful staff, at all & any time of day/night.The "Ladies", who bring clean towel's etc are so discreet, '"they are a credit", to the complex !!!!. Although there is a frre shuttle bus, we enjoy the walk to the beach, but if going further we've used the local bus, to get to to Puerto Rico, from there, we used the water taxi's ( again) & went to Mogen ( little Venice), it's a wonderful area & so pretty, then 'caught the water taxi & bus back to Maspalomas & " our home for 2 week's !!).We prefered to use local transport ( it's brilliant, regular & reliable) for the whole of gran Canaria & we can certainly recommend anyone to use it & use a taxi ( good price's & helpful again !!), in the evening's etc. I can honestly say, that where ever we have eaten, we have not been disappointed, be it at the complex, Faro 2 centre, or beach/ different area's of the Island. We made our own meal's & ate at 'our' patio area many times, when we've had a lazy day 'by the pool',& plenty of 'sun' lounger's, to relax & 'read', or after swimming,(bliss), & a shop only min's away on the complex. We can & have recommended Cordial Green Golf with complete confidence, there has been a good mix of all age's, whilst we have been there, so again- no age barrier at all, the pool's are a good size, & a smaller one for babies & toddler's, with step's leading into the shallow area. We were fortunate enough & really pleased, to see some guest's who had stayed at the same time as ourselves last year ( 2007), it was a delight to see familiar face's, it's also a testimony in itself, in my opinion !!. Indeed, yesterday ( Thur's 21st. Aug.), we have 'booked' for a further 11 night's this year, 25th..Sept.-6th.Oct 2008. The overall price's are so reasonable & competative & such good quality in return, mean's an extra 'break', in a "home from home" duplex, at a lovely complex, on a beautiful Island - Gran Canaria, I would happily 'live' there, in a Duplex, at Cordial Green Golf !!!. My husband Alan & myself, cannot fault anything, from arrival to leaving ( paying a little extra to keep our accom.), when departing late pm !!!. Many, many thank's to all, who make "our holiday" , a real worry free holiday, & we are now looking forward to Sept, 25th., only 5 week's to wait !. Jan & Alan, Cheshire, UK.
Best on a Budget
WorldWide1984, Reading
We had a fantastic time in Maspalomas, partly due to the great accommodation at the Cordial Green Bungalows. The little two-floor bungalows are wonderful - very modern and complete with everything you need. (Having to pay for the TV with only a few english channels is a pain, but who needs a TV when you're on holiday!) We opted for Self-catering (and so can't really comment on the food at the Hotel) although from what we saw, it looked pretty good! We chose to eat out in Maspalomas and nearby Playa de Ingles. The bungalow has a fridge, sink, kettle, toaster and 2 electric hob rings (as well as full compliment of pots, pans, plates, glasses etc....) and a mini-supermarket on site for the essentials. I would advise taking the short walk to the FARO2 shopping centre (5-10min walk) to grab your shopping as it is a little cheaper! The pools are beautiful. Both of them! Didn't have a huge problem with sun loungers, but it was always good to be up before 10am when the pool-side started to fill up! As for the area, the centre (and beach) of Maspalomas is a 3 EURO taxi ride away - bargain! Head for the Grand Italia Restaurant on the front in the new shopping development. Simply amazing service and fantastic food - especially the inhouse made pasta.
Great accommodation and location
Goodbitz, Hong Kong
We had a fantastic week here in March and we would highly recommend it. The bungalow was small but perfectly compact and had everything you would need. The place was beautifully clean and tidy, the pools were really clean and it was such a pretty place, it is as it looks in the brochure. Great for golf next door, the driving range is good, although the course was a little bit dry and the greens were sandy but we are used to the lush greens in the UK! We were self-catered, the supermarket was an easy walk away and there were plenty of places to eat in the evening. We walked to the beach most days (to try and burn off the food!) but there was a shuttle bus, which was regular and free! It is also to fun to walk over the dunes but really hard work! You will have a great holiday.
fab holiday
kisshandra, dublin
Just back from a week in Maspalomas. weather georgus. Green golf bunalows were fab. Very clean, tidy, quiet and central enough.I didnt go full board but I would do it either. Food is ok but near by restraunts are lovely and cheap. There are daily free buses to the beach and Playa del Ingles but a taxi will only cost you about 3.50 euro. It only takes about 7 mins. Near the bungalows you can play all sports at a good price (tennis, golf, etc..) A lovely chinese rest called Bamboo is only 5 min walk away. For kids (and adults like me) just 20 min walk will bring you to a fun arcade with good indoor and outdoor ammusements. It opens from 6 pm to 12 midnight. The irish and british centres are good but you will always have people pulling you into bars and its very young. Go to the main shopping centre in Playa del Ingles. Great shops fro the daytime, good cheap food in the evening and hilarous drag shows in the eveings. Highly recommend it. over all a great holiday and depressed to be back. But i am going back there again. I have been on a lot of package holidays and this is by far the best that i have been on.
Would Love To Stay There Again!
melinda_uk, Birmingham, United Kingdom
I absolutely loved this place! The apartments were clean and comfortable, the cleaning staff were very friendly and the pool was gorgeous. We stayed for a week from 9 to 16 June and wished we could have stayed longer. If you want to play golf, this an excellent location as the clubhouse for the Campo Del Golf is a three minute walk. We didn't have to book a tee time, just showed up when we wanted to play, and received a 15% discount because we stayed at the Green Golf. On the Wednesday night they had a barbecue in the hotel, which wasn't bad. There was plenty of meat though not a lot in the way of side dishes, apart from salad, or things to put on the jacket potatoes, but we still enjoyed our meal. There are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance, and even more in central Maspalomas, which is quite an upmarket place. There were a lot of families with small children, so I wouldn't say it was the best place to stay if you want a romantic getaway, but otherwise it was fantastic. I'm hoping to go again next June!
Fantastic place

Green Golf Maspalomas - Fantastic!
bighalders, scotland
I stayed at the Cordial Geen Golf Bungalows 19/5/08 to 2/6/08. This is a great place to stay, very clean, the public areas are cleaned and developed just about every day. There are two very large pools, one about 50 yards long the other about 100 yards long. There is the Faro 2 shopping centre about 5 mins walk away plenty of restuarants there. However I would recommend heading round past the golf course, visit the "Canal Grande" (Italian) or the Bamboo Garden (Chinese). Both excellent. For traditional Canarian food try Rustico, oppositr the golf course, I didn't go there but it did look very good indeed. Or if you head further down toward the sea front area of Meloneras there are loads of great bars restaurants and boutiques as well as some great hotels. Try the Costa Cobana for a great cocktail! For the first time ever I will go back to Maspalomas soon, don't normally want to go back somewhere straight away
Fantastic accomodation!
RichardEaton, Leeds, England
I can highly recommend the Green Golf as well as the resort of Maspalomas for a fantastic holiday. We (myself and girlfriend) wanted to get away in March for some early sun and booked this direct with Thomson as a weeks package via their website. Hotel ------- We found the apartments to be very clean and the grounds, pools etc were lovely. It was a really relaxing place that was quiet even though there quite alot of people staying. The only bad point I can think of is that the walls between apartments were quite thin so if you were next to anybody loud then I think this would disturb you. As the clientele are mainly couples or families then I wouldn't let this put you off as it isn't a raucous place anyway! Location ------------ The hotel location was great as it is not in the centre of Maspalomas but is still near enough to walk to over 20 nearby restaurants. You can walk down to the beach from the hotel which only takes about 20 minutes. Taxi's are plentiful and cheap though we had hired a car so always walked or drove around. The beach front as Maspalomas is excellent with a nature reserve (full of fish, gecko's etc) as well as a host of nice restaurants and designer boutique shops. Another good place to go for a large range of cheaper restaurants is the Faro2 centre which is a 5 minute walk from the apartments. Staff ------ The hotel staff were excellent and couldn't do enough to help us. We booked a couple of excursions with them and unfortunately the people running one of them made a mistake with days so didn't pick us up from the hotel. The reception staff got straight on the phone and re-arranged it for the next day and also managed to negotiate us a different excursion for FREE for that day too! The maids came every day and did a good job of cleaning the apartment. They never tried to clean when we were in so we never actually saw them though which was nice (no offence maids!). Maspalomas ------------------ This was our first trip to Gran Canaria and we were really impressed. We were initially worried when we drove from the airport down to Maspalomas as the view from the motorway is quite industrial and not very nice. As soon as we got to the hotel and took a drive down to Maspalomas our worries were gone though. We had hired a car for the full week and saw most places on the island but we didn't see any location we'd have rather been staying at. We were very relieved we'd chosen Maspalomas when we vistsed Puerto Rico which is so overdeveloped it is ridiculous and front was all "Irish" bars and full English breakfasts - not what we'd travelled to Gran Canaria for! Things To See -------------------- For us the highlights of the holiday were some of the excursions we did. The submarine trip at Puerto De Mogan is a great experience. The camel safari we did up in the mountains was great. The market on Sunday mornings at Teror is worth a visit though get there before lunchtime to get parked. And probably the most fun thing we did was an off road buggy trek - this is where a guide takes a group of you in off road buggies for a few hours drive around the area combining on and off road tracks - great fun! All in all we had a fantastic holiday :) Hope this helps Richard
Amazing Place!!!
Lauren1508, Leeds
I stayed at Cordial Green 19th-26th April. We booked over the net on Travel Republic and picked it from various others. As you are normally greeted we expected a less than amazing site, as the pictures were so good we thought they ahd been computer generated. However THEY WEREN'T!! This pleace is beautiful!! Colourful, expertley clean, nicely decorated, not pestered by maids, gorgeous gardens!!!
Fantastic Holiday!!!!!
melbug, manchester
My boyfriend and I booked this as a cheap winter sun holiday and what a fantastic time we had!! Green Golf Bungalows are a little gem in Maspalomas and are perfect for families and couples alike! The bungalows themselves are clean and tidy with everything that you need.. There is a spacious living and kitchen area and an airy upstairs with a beautifully furnished bathroom! You also have a patio area and upstairs balcony so there is more than enough space and choices of chilling area! The public areas are also immaculate-the pools are lovely and there are plenty of sundbeds for everyone. Their are also safety gates by reception which you have a seperate key card for which stop non-residents wandering into the hotel-we thought this was great and we felt very safe! There is a little hotel supermarket which is very handy and had everything we needed. We tried the restaurant but found we enjoyed a great selection of restaurants and bars at fantastic prices down by the Maspalomas lighthouse-this area is amazing and definately worth a trip or two! From the bungalows it was only around 3/4 euros in a taxi but it is within walking distance and takes around 20 mins (we are slow walkers tho!) Also nearby is Faro2 which is a shopping centre and has crazy golf etc.. we used to go to the bakers there for breakfast and there is a great supermarket-this is a five min walk. Also worth a trip is Port Mogan-we went on a friday when we hired a car and there is a great market on which you can get anything and everything you could wish for! My wish list got me a some amazing handbags etc!! We had a fantastic holiday in Gran Canaria at the Green Golf Bungalows and we were sad to leave, so we are hoping to return in the near future and would recommend these apartments to any potential holiday makers thinking of going! Even the weather was perfect!!!
brilliant value for money, lovely bungalows
rubia1984, rubia1984
could not fault this hotel at all. staff at reception really helpful, reccommending places to eat etc. complex itself was gorgeous from the outside - painted really pretty colours with lots of greenery and flowers, lovely pool also. bungalows themselves fairly small but fine for 2 people sharing - living room/kitchen downstairs and bedroom/bathroom upstairs. if you're worried about the location -don't be! there is a free shuttle bus to the beach, but if you miss this a taxi only cost us 4 to get to faro de maspalomas. all in all a great place to stay, would definitely reccomend!
Golf in Maspalomas
TimVenner, Hertfordshire
We are in our 60's and wanted sun / warmth / quiet / good restaurants. We were attracted to Cordial Green Golf and were not disappointed. Accommodation. "Cosy" , ie. only one of you could get to the wardrobe at once; one side of the bed was up against the wall. However, we weren't going to spend much time upstairs, so it wasn't a problem. 2 pools. Unheated one was a tad chilly in Feb. but OK when you got used to it. V. attractive pool, area and apartments. We only went for 4 nights, so didn't use bar restaurant.. Eating out. Tried Cho Juanillo in Faro 2 (10 mins walk.) as recommended by other reviewers. Not very impressed. Just your basic steak bar. However, if you like your dessert to come with a sparkler and leetle umbrella, then it could be just for you. Likewise, cannot recommend food at Golf Club. Courgette soup was wonderful, but main course (fish) not properly cooked, and cold. However, two wonderful restaurants only 5 mins walk from apartments, though. (Come out of Green Golf; turn left; past the Golf Club, and immediately on your right.) Amaiur is run by very nice Dutch Guy. Super food, imaginative menu. Tad pricey. Rustico next door - very small, will only seat 24, therefore book in advance. Wonderful. Nice German couple (he cooks, she serves). Fish soup with Pernod; saddle of lamb with Rosti and warm papaya (!) - yummy. Would have eaten there every night if we'd discovered it sooner. Very reasonable price. Golf. Course is long and a bit boring, but excellent greens. We set alarm for 7. 00 (still dark). Got there 7. 45 (only 5 mins walk) and teed off at 8. 00 (shorts and shirt sleeves). Only 3 and a half hour round. Finished by 11. 30 (temp. in low 80's). Had beer and ciabatta on terrace, and gloated over queue of late starters who would be having a 5 hour round in the heat of the day ! Good driving range, and practice facilities. Beach and Dunes. Worth walking through dunes to Masp. Turn left out of Green Golf. Walk past Golf Club along road. When road crosses right over dry river bed, turn left along gravel track, and across dunes to sea. Beware of naked Germans lurking in dunes ! When you get to sea, remember that the first land SSW is Antartica; SW is Brazil. This explains the size of the waves. Have a super time. Feel free to ask me anything. firstname.lastname@example.com
Relaxing break
JennyBe, Glasgow
Spent quite a while deciding where to go, but really did make a good choice. My priorities were to find somewhere quiet, with the feeling of having our own space/privacy, greenery around us and a balcony/outdoor space to relax in the evenings. I didn't want screaming children, lots of nighttime noise, or nasty concrete apartments. Green Golf fitted the bill really well in the end. The area of Maspalomas is right beside Playa del Inglés - a very urban, busy, (tacky?!) resort - so glad we didn't stay there. Maspalomas has low density bungalow-style accommodation with the odd, very grand-looking hotel. Lots of vegetation around the place and it is close enough to the beach area that you can walk (30-40 mins from where we were). The Green Golf Apartments run around two long pools. I think where you are placed within the apartments really makes a difference. We were initially put on a north-facing stretch looking out towards a road - which wouldn't have been too bad, but I'd have been a bit sad if we'd stayed. Asked at reception to move and after 2 nights got a different spot. I would recommend requesting a particular location when you book. The bungalows are really well kitted out and are a nice size for 2 people. Many seem to have been refurbished recently so look quite smart. We cooked on 2 nights and I had no problems. There is a shop at the complex which has most of what you'll need - and fairly cheap too. The apartments and the complex generally is clean the point of someone having an obsessive compulsive disorder. Ridiculously clean. The only downside to that is that the teams of cleaners (with walkie-talkies!) and various machines can be a bit obtrusive. We ate at the complex once - Wednesday is BBQ night - and went out for dinner 3 times - each of which was great. There is a lovely restaurant called 'Rustico' (I think) run by a German family about 5 mins walk towards the beach. We went twice and I'd highly recommend it, especially the 'catch of the day' option and lobster sauce. Great service, good food and nice selection of wine. Downsides? Reception staff aren't great (seemed weary and grumpy!), but they did move us, so they get points for that. My gut is that the apartments are most suited to couples - or families with really young or older teenagers. Kids in the middle would probably be a bit bored and the ambiance of the whole place is pretty sedate. The pool was freezing when we first arrived - the heating got turned on half way through the trip (for the winter season), which made it more pleasant. So, I'd certainly recommend the place if the above is what you're looking for.
So peaceful
candt, Southport UK
We have just returned from a 2 week holiday at the Green Golf Bungalows. We had a bungalow facing south and got the sun from 9.30 in the morning until 5.30ish. At first we were a little disappointed with the size of the bungalow which appeared to be a little on the small size but after a few days we got used to it and grew to love it. Hope the following helps Location well situated for most places. Half hour to forty minutes walk to Faro 1 but taxis plentiful and only 3 Euros. Faro 2 5-10 min walk but not as up market. The Green Golf is SO peaceful especially around the unheated pool (to your right as you face reception) Accommodation .The bungalows are very pretty have everything you need. Not luxurious inside and a little basic but we couldnt complain. The electric 2 hob was fine and the whistling kettle boiled quite quickly. The beds however were VERY uncomfortable. They were cheap beds and need to be replaced as the springs could be felt with every turn. Many people mentioned this so please take note Cordial and change them soon before it drives people away. The bungalows were very clean with the maid coming in 5 days a week. Our maid Argueda was always smiling. The pools and all outside areas are kept extremely clean every day. One morning I woke at 4.30 and thought I could hear someone swimming in the pool. It was the pool guy cleaning it and he was still working on it at 11am ! The supermarket staff could have been more cheerful but lets face it they were in the basement and didnt see the light of day so maybe they had something to be miserable about. Food ..We had lunch here twice and it was ok but nothing special. There is a restaurant to eat at night but we never did so cannot comment. However we heard mixed reviews of meals there. The bar was very smokey whenever we passed through and we decided not to spend an evening there because it would have been uncomfortable. Entertainment ..We never stopped to see a show mainly because we went out each evening to eat, but more importantly because a parrot show/guy with snakes/fashion show/bingo and karaoke was not the sort of entertainment we were looking for. Reception staff were efficient and seemed to do their job well but were not very warm or over friendly. The Resort Faro 1 at Melonares is a great place for eating out. We tried out lots of places and decided the Grand Italia was by far the best heads and shoulders above the rest. The waiters there are very attentive and the food and service is very good. To the left of the lighthouse is a walkway towards the beach with lots of eating places at night. Sorrento is good for entertainment .2 guys singing lovely Spanish songs. If you can, try and take in the show at the casino. Absolutely fabulous 2hr show 35 euros, or show and meal 47.50 euros. . Would we go back to the Green Golf ? like a shot but only if we knew that they had bought new beds. Im quite willing to answer any questions ...feel free.
Wonderful Setting
Munch13, new malden
This is the 7th time we have stayed at the Green Golf Bungalows. Now looks even better after the refurbishment. It was good to see the same staff again, we were made to feel really welcome. Room was cleaned 5 days out of seven and bed linen changed twice a week.. Pool areas were of an excellent standard. Bar/Restaurant was also very good. This is a really wonderful place to relax and unwind. Needless to say we have already booked for next year. Jane & Peter Epsom, Surrey.
2nd visit

This was my 2nd visit to the Green Golf apartments. When booking requested same apartment and on arriving got the apartment we wanted. The apartments were much busier than when we visited at easter time but still able to get sunbeds no problem as there was always plenty available. Once again were happy here and had no problems at all. Would recommend them to family & friends. Pool area very nice & the gardens at the courtyard area (2nd pool) had a very pleasant outlook when sitting at your terrace. We were here on a self catering basis and had quite a lot of our meals at Meloneras. We would walk down which took about 30 to 45 mins to get to the restaurant area of Meloneras, plenty shops here to browse around as well. Hope to be back sometime to the Green Golf apartments in the future.
Family accommodation in two storey bungalows
sueandg, Rotherham, England
We have just returned from a one week stay in these lovely apartments in Maspalomas. The rooms have recently been furnished and are very modern. The rooms were cleaned 5 days out of 7 with clean towels every time and bed linen changed once. The pool area and walk ways were cleaned every day with an army of staff. The site has two very large swimming pools with more than enough sun beds. We stayed self catering and did not eat in the hotel and used the site supermarket for essentials. Faro II shopping centre was only 10-15 mins walk away for eating places and supermarkets. The taxi into Playa del Ingles was only 3 euros 50 cents. It is a lovely place to stay and we would return at anytime.
Wish we were still there........

Well, What to say.........I'm quite fussy so this year I Iet my partner decide where we would go on holiday and she picked this place!!! Disappointing? Read on. This is , honestly, the best holiday I have ever had. I wanted hot, I got it. I wanted clean, I got it. I wanted privacy, I got it ( that's on the Golf course facing bungalows). Other reviews say the night time entertainment wasn't that great....True, in one way, but sometimes, and this was definately the case, you have to be in the mood. If you are and want to have a good time, then this can be a good night out right on your doorstep. TAKE PART. The staff are so helpful. When we arrived there was no plug for the bathroom sink. We asked and that same evening we had one! The supermarket on location has all you need, extra's, including bars, restaurants, shops etc. are 5 minutes walk away at the superb Faro 2 shopping centre. We even got one of the local cats, not included in package, stay with us!!! She was in no way pestering, she came and went when she pleased. Please feed her, she sleeps outside Bungalow 32, she is all black and she has one bitten off ear tip. Check this review, we took loads of piccies. We'll send them if requested! PS. For a most romantic evening, go to the Viewpoint, half way to PDI, 15 minutes walk away. Get there one hour before sunset and take a camera. The dunes and the sunset over the hills are unbelieveable. Piccies if you want!!! PPS. In Faro 2 they show all the footy from Sky & Setanta in different bars so relax lads, you won't miss out. Jim & Claudia
Great Apartments!

I have recently stayed at the Green Golf Bungalows in Maspolamas and loved every minute of it! The staff were very nice and friendly, rooms were cleaned daily with sheets and towels changed a number of times and the grounds were beautifully maintained! The pools - of which there are 2 unusually shaped ones and a small kiddies paddling pool, were very clean and great for a swim or a dip when it got too hot in the sun. The apartments themselves were very modern, clean and had everything you could need for a self catering holiday - even a toaster! The on site shop also has everything you could need and the restaurant offered some decent pool side snacks - toasties, burgers, hot dogs, etc - although we ate out each evening so don't know what it was like at night. Nearby Meloneras has some great shops, restaurants and the beach which is definately worth a visit and Faro 2 has some nice shops and restaurants too. Don't listen to any bad reviews I can't fault these apartments, the facilities or the staff.
great holiday
kendrickworld, essex
we had a great time at these lovely clean apartments. they are on the small side if you were going to do much cooking in doors. we had half board which was ok. they had a barbecue one night and other themed evenings. entertainment was very low key. staff in the restuarant and bar areas were excellent and friendly. the reception staff were very off-hand and not at all helpful. overall a lovely relaxing holiday.
most relaxing atmosphere
Eilidh37, Dunbartonshire
These apartments are bsically equipped but very clean nd airy, pools are lovely and the restaurant and bar are very clean, plenty of choice on the menu and the food is delicious and cooked to perfection.We stayed for a week but didn't want to leave. Lying in the sun at the beginning of december was just heavenly!! Would certainly go back over and over. Highly recommended.
Our much needeed holiday.

Myself, husband Alan & grangaughter Emily have recently returned from a 2 week holiday ( 28th May 07 --11th June 07 ).We had a really lovely holiday at the above.Our Duplex, which is the type of accom. that we prefer was spotless, all new & modern furnishings downstairs & more than ample space for Emily to sleep on the bed/settee.Upstairs again spotless, lots of wardrobe space & shelving & mirrors etc, & the same in the bathroom which was really spacious & lots of good fluffy towels supplied & changed regularly, same with bedding & cleaning.We had requested a pool view & were lucky enough to be given one !!!.The balcony was spacious, as was the patio.The pool was wonderful & well maintained.All of the staff were helpful & the ladies who cleaned were especially good & friendly !!!.. We can only give praise about our entire experience of staying there & will most certainly book this same accom. again, we had some lovely neighbours & all was first class !!!. We stayed at 146 & had a night out with neighbours Meg.John & their son Guy,if you do read this my email was returned because of wrong address, please email us ?. To sum up, a wonderful holiday in excellent accom & will most certainly stay there again & can highly reccom. to anyone who's thinking of where to stay in Maspalomas !!!. Jan,Alan & Emily.

a perfect getaway
sueBristol, Bristol,UK
I wanted somewhere quiet and peaceful and that is exactly what Our apartment overlooked the golf course and had fantastic views. The apartment was clean and well equipped, although a bit on the small side. The gardens, pool and outside areas were well kept. Staff were friendly and helpful. Less than 10 minute walk to local shopping centre and 20 minute walk to beach. I had a fantastic time and will go there again.
Wonderful, independent place to stay
jsd2, Lancashire
We (a couple around 50 years old!) have stayed at the Green Golf bungalows twice and have found the accomodation and service superb, by far the best self catering facility we have stayed and the only one to return to. Our remit is to be totally independent and not bothered by holiday reps. The apartments are a little on the small side, but very adequate for two adults and are sericed to a very high standard including regular change of towels, twice weekly change of bed linen and 5 days a week maid service. Our maid, at our last stay was wonderfully attentive to a high standard of cleanliness and though she spoke little English, she allowed us to try out our limited Spanish! All the expected items in the apartment include fridge, two ring hob, coffee maker, toaster and good selection of crockery etc. The surroudings of the complex are kept very clean and the two pools (1 heated and 1 unheated) are cleaned daily. The complex is set around the golf course which is idyllic and quiet, we had the choice of walking into Playa del Ingles or to the sand dunes at Maspalomas and on to Meloneras. Cannot recommend this facility highly enough.

Was really nervous about booking when i read some of the reviews. Went ahead and booked anyway. Very surprised at high standards of apartments. Was nothing to worry about. Had no issues and found the staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms were cleaned everyday and were spotless. There were no bugs or cockroaches as some people had suggested. Beautiful gardens and totally well maintained. I am def booking to go back next month for another week or so! If anyone has any questions please feel free to contact me.

Just got back from a week at Green golf apartments.Thoroughly enjoyable with a mixed group of nationalities and all friendly.Clean,spacious apartments.No fault with these apartments.Staff were friendly & helpful.No cash taken on site as stated by other recent visitors so watch your money.We paid up every couple of days. Took a trip by jeep with "Freebird" on a whole day trip to Mount Tiede.Great day out & great guys. Will go back next year to do Masca walk.Through the gorge 8.5 k to have lunch on beach & then taken back by boat to Los Gigantes. Timeshare not too bad but when we saw them my wife & I split up.They never approach single people! Food was good & inexpensive.Got bitten 5 times by mozzies so take protection ,I didnt because I didnt think they were about this early! Only regret,only found Tony Romas restaurant on last morning.Finest ribs in world.Will be back.

Restaurant was nice, pool bar was good, food was very cheap. Overall we had a great holiday and are booking to go back again for the new year.

Me, my partner and our 7 year old daughter stayed at the Green Golf bungalows the last week in september the first in october and had a fantastic time, the rooms are cleaned everyday with fresh towels given, the staff where helpful. They are great great with the kids, and friendly. The weather has been fantastic, and we enjoyed the pools which are cleaned every morning. I can't praise this place enough, it's a great place in the quieter side of town with a taxi (of which there are plenty) costing 3 euros including a tip into playa de ingles (about 2 pounds). Its a secure place to stay I felt safe as there are gates and you have a card to enter into the grounds. I would really recommend this place and I will be looking forward to my return trip one day in the future.
Loved it
Un miembro de TripAdvisor, London
i stayed in the green golf apartments in jul/aug 2005 with 8 friends we had 3 apartments between us and loved it!!!! the pool or should i say pools as there are 2 were beautiful they were cleaned regularly, so we were all pleased with the standard of hygiene around the accomodation! the apartments were also pleasing, they were in a v. nice peaceful location, obviously we had the odd few cockroaches but how can they be fully avoided? i agree that the accomadation could be freshened up and modernised a little but were definately above satisfactory! i spent 2 weeks there and it was v. nice. the man in reception is lovely and although did not speak much english was very friendly and helpful. and the actual location of the resort was perfect in terms of quietness and being able to relax peacefully but it was only a cheap 5 minute taxi drive into the centre of playa de ingles which was ideal!!! i have no complaint about my holiday in maspalomas in fact it was my best holiday yet, i would definately return to green golf as my stay wa excellent thankyou!!! x
fantastic - 10 out of 10!!!
Un miembro de TripAdvisor, UK
Just got back from Green Golf. The complex was excellent. Really clean, not a cockroach in sight!!! The apartments themselves were small but adequate for the amount of time spent there. Pool's were huge and pool area was spotless. Plenty of sunbeds. Bar staff were fantastic, always cheerful, helpful and efficient. Reception staff were helpful and courteous. Ideal for families and couples. The resort of Maspalomas is relatively quiet but it's only approx 3 euros in a taxi to all the nightlife of Playa Del Ingles. Faro 2 shopping centre is only 5 mins walk away and has many shops and restaraunts, bars there are open till 3 on most nites. Will definately book to go again next year, had a fantastic time, the staff and complex were brilliant!! 10 out of 10
spectacular !
Un miembro de TripAdvisor, Llanbrynmair, Powys, Wales
Review possibly a bit late but nevertheless stayed at Green Golf at April of this year, it was superb, the apartment, the setting, the staff, it was faultless. We found it to be very clean and tidy, room service was on a daily basis, cleaned to a high standard, although facilities pretty basic, were we not meant to spend our time out on that glorious beach of Maspalomas ?. I would highly recomend Green Golf and look forwards to my next visit there.
Un miembro de TripAdvisor, ireland
My daughter and I stayed in Sandy golf bungalows , sister of Green golf. we had a brilliant time. so relaxing at apts and lively in Playa Del Ingles, just a short, inexpensive drive away. there was no music at the pool bar, it was all so laid back, everything a holiday should be. As my daughter is only 12 I was concerned about the security in the complex, I need not have worried, the main gate was locked at 12 midnight and could only be accessed by key.
best holiday yet

Excellent place!!
Un miembro de TripAdvisor, Winsford, Cheshire, England
the second time we have visited and it hasnt changed in 3 years, still a great place for a relaxing holiday, peaceful and play del ingles is only a short distance away if you fancy a more lively evening out. Very Clean, Staff very helpful, overall a good base to stay to get the best of everything.
Un miembro de TripAdvisor,
Me and my other half stayed at the GREEN GOLF APTS in Gran Canaria. They are absolutely wonderful, the pools are gorgeous. I would reccommend goig self-catering because there are so many bars and restaurants in a big complex just over the road. There is a free bus which takes you to the beach which is every hour. Its so relaxed in the apts and lively in the evening. There are nightly shows at the apts if you are on all-inclusive but i dont think the food is too good. The Sand Dunes are lovely but dont walk to far down cos you may get a nice suprise of 100s of naked people on the nudist beach. Overall the best holiday i have had yet - fantastic.

Parfait. Absolument tout s'est déroulé simplement et efficacement. Vacances réussies! Depuis la réservation sur Hotelplan via internet jusqu'au retour, on a jamais eu de mauvaises surprises. Tout était à la hauteur de nos attentes. Le complexe de maisonettes Cordial Green Golf très charmant avec une piscine à faire pâlir de jalousie les plus prestigieux hôtels. Tout extrêmement propres. Buffet du petit-déjeuner très varié et beaucoup de choix. Tranquilité et repos assuré. Service et accueil très chaleureux.
Great apartments
Darren F,
We stayed here for a weeks holiday with family. We emailed in advance to request nearby rooms and when we checked in after my family, the reception staff knew exactly who we were and acknowledged that we'd made the request and honoured this. Very impressed as we didn't have to ask. The apartments themselves are furnished to a good clean standard and the pool is great. We choose to use the narrow part to sunbathe and it was nice and quiet. Couldn't fault anything. We had previously stayed here a few years ago and found the complex to be consistently good.
Ashleigh C, Essex
Nice pool, clean hotel room. Weather beautiful. Went self catering so cannot comment on food.. Staff were friendly, they had a little shop underneath that sold food, newspapers. The cabs pull up right outside the hotel and they are very cheap. The bus stop is over the road so walking distance..

lupogigi, Bergamo, Italia
Sono tornato per una vacanza di 15 giorni presso questa struttura, non posso che confermare quanto già scritto a gennaio dell'anno scorso.-Aggiungo solo il consiglio di associarsi al Club Cordial per ottenere una notte in regalo ogni 7 prenotate+ 10% di sconto sulle consumazioni al bar+ Assegnazione preferenziale dell'alloggio+ regalo di benvento (a me un cesto di frutta ed una splendida bottiglia "riserva" del 2007).- Personale tutto molto gentile e disponibile, in modo particolare quello della reception; un grazie di cuore. Esiste il servizio di WI-FI gratuito presso il ristorante e zona piscina.- Per quanto riguarda lo stile dell'Hotel si tratta di una serie di villette a schiera indipendenti su due piani poste intorno alle varie piscine e giardini.-

Nice pool and garden area.
Rooty2013, Sandnes, Noruega
Two weeks in a Nice place. The bungalow were in two levels, bedroom and bathroom upstairs, and a little "garden" with chairs and table. Facing the Green Golf court having sun all day was lovely. Restaurant was not the best, but we had a few small meals there. Several restaurants in walking distance and a taxi to Yumbo Senter cost 3-4 Euros. Free busses to Maspalomas Beach and to Playa del Ingles sentrum Several times a day. I can recommend The Cordial Green Golf!
Top location if you're not a late-night raver
MartinH916, London, United Kingdom
The location is pretty good, in the 'international' quarter between Playa del Ingles and Meloneras, both a 4 cab ride away. If golf is your thing you're good to go, and the famous Maspalomas dunes are but 15 mins walk away (tho you access them from the scruffy end). Each 'bungalow' is actually a two storey apartment, twin beds above, a divan below. Three would be a crowd, especially if two are an item. The pool runs like an avenue between the rows of bungalows and is delightful. The dining room is busy and good valuebe sure to have the breakfast buffet. The kitchen is suitably equipped and you can self-cater if that's what you want. It is quiet in the evening as soon as the dining room closes at 9 and if you want to rave, you'll have to take a cab from right outside the door, no problem. You are likely to annoy other guests if you come back drunk and noisy in the middle of the night. However this was not our purpose and for a base to cycle in the mountains, it's right on the money. We loved it.
Value for money
Appraisal4U, Dublin Ireland
No time for a long review. In short they are great 3 star apartments. Super pool. Clean apartments with a rather small bedroom. Location is great close to everything yet so quite at night. Over looking a golf course. Of course there are better apartments but at this price I don't think you will find better. Yes I would go again.
Beau voyage

Un peu loin de la mer, mais un plaisir de découvrir le paysage, ces magnifique dunes de sable, cette plage de sable fin sur des kilomètres. très belle piscine très bien entretenue .Les lits pourraient être fait tous les jours
Fredrik N,
Ett fint hotell,mycket fin och välskött trädgård, lång stor pool också mkt välskött , all personal mkt trevlig, väldigt lugnt runt poolen inte massa hallaballo ! Något små markterasser,maten sådär,rätt mkt katter på hotellet, lugnt område utanför hotellet som ofta krävde taxi på kvällarna (billigt). Vår familj hade en jätte skön vecka här och kan absolut tänka oss att återvänd
Another great stay ....!

3rd time at the Cordial Green golf and was just as impressed. We were greeted at reception with a smile and a warm friendly welcome .We had the exact bungalow we requested. No 45, opposite the pool in the quieter end. Resort was just as spotlessly clean as ever with the added bonus of brand new sunbeds ! Great Location, only 20 minutes walk from the beach but a free bus if needed. Couldn't recommend this place enough, I'm already planning my fourth visit. Keep up the good work Green Golf !!
Veramente bello!!!

Struttura bella, enorme, gli alloggi sono puliti e spaziosi. La piscina era pulita e ben curata. A cena abbiamo scelto la mezza pensione ed i pasti erano buoni e completi! Lo staff disponibile e veloce. Anche i posti da visitare erano bellissimi, torneremo sicuramente
Water Water Everywhere
jcp2742, NairnHighlands
This complex is simply wonderful for self catering or otherwise. With the golf course adjacent it is both suitable for families with kids(so many pools to choose from) or a golfing group. The bungalows are well fitted,and those surrounding the pools extremely well located.
Brilliant place for a family holiday.
Patrick-Smash, Southampton, United Kingdom
Myself and my family have just returned from a one week stay at The Cordial Green Golf. The whole complex is kept clean and tidy by friendly professional staff, it's exactly how it looks in the photos.It's location is a either a 30 minute walk or a 10 minute free shuttle bus ride or a 4 taxi ride away from Maspalamos beach depending what you fancy.Our bungalow was facing the Golf course which was a nice quiet location.The bungalows aren't huge, but they are well equipped for a family holiday. We didn't use the T.V. or air con (the ceiling fans were more than adequate to handle the August temperature). We hired a safe which was 10 deposit and 2 per day. The kitchen had all that we needed, apart from a kettle, but I noticed this from the photos and reviews before we went and we took our own. There is a small supermarket on site which sells all the essentials, but if you're after a proper supermarket, jump in a taxi and ask to go to Mercadona in San Fernando, only a 5 ride away, it has everything you'll need and the prices are cheaper. The swimming pools at the complex are large and the water was always a nice temperature. We can't comment on the restaurant as we went self catering. If you're after good restaurants then head to Meloneras there is a wide range of them there that cater for all tastes. Overall the Cordial Green Golf is fantastic value for money and I would highly recommend it.
Another great stay at Greengolf!
Ian J , london
My partner and I enjoyed yet another lovely stay at this excellent holiday complex.Everything about Greengolf speaks of quality from the very well appointed bungalows to the 2 large swimming pools and the nicely landscaped gardens!We return so often we have taken advantage by becoming Gold Club Members which afford you certain discounts,your choice of apartment(as far as is possible) and gifts on arrival;nice touch!!The staff are friendly and whether you just enjoy a drink or both drink and meal the service is efficient.Outside the complex there is plenty to do with the beaches and town of Playa` a walkable distance away and it`s all suitable for all types! Consejo sobre las habitaciones: become a gold member and take your pick!!

We had a great holiday food was good. kids loved the big pools they are amazing. lovely friendly staff. Will be going back next year. The bungalows have everything you need. The weather was great not to hot for the kids.
Quiet, huge pool and cute bungalows
Vicky1606 , Armadale, Reino Unido
Last minute deal for three of us. Looked ok on net thankfully just as nice in reality. Cute bungalows clean and fit for purpose. Towels were changed on our second day. Snacks available in bar dinner and breakfast possible on a half board basis or a la carte. We chose to walk to an area around twenty minutes walk with lots of lovely shops and restaurants most evenings. Reception staff very helpful. Large pool with lots of loungers. Would return. Excellent for cost.
Veldig bra hotell
Maa125 , Aurskog-Holand Municipality, Noruega
Vi var på Cordial Green Golf høsten 2013. Dette var et veldig pent og velholdt hotell. Leilighet i to etasjer med soverom og bad oppe med en egen liten balkong. 1. etasje besto av kjøkken og stue med utgang til bassengområde og egen uteplass, Vi bodde nærmest på bassengkanten, veldig greit for morgenbad og det var alltid god plass ved og i bassengene. Bra renhold og OK middag i restauranten den ene gangen vi spiste på hotellet. Flere gode spiseseder i gangavstand (ca, 10 min.) fra hotellet. Enkelt lite supermarked i hotellområdet hvor du fikk det mest nødvendige, stort supermarked i kjøpesenteret Faro 2 - 5-10 min. i gangavstand. Faro 2 var forøvrig et trist syn, det var lite aktivitet igjen der, og mange tomme lokaler. Det var et stykke til stranden, men det gikk gratis hotellbuss flere ganger på dagen, så det var overhodet ikke noe problem. Totalt sett var dette en veldig fin plass å koble av og nyte sol og varme. Consejo sobre las habitaciones: Du kaqn være uheldig å havne på skyggesiden uten noe sol på egen uteplass. Be om rom på solsiden.
bonne expérience en bungalow

1st time to gran canaria
35sophie, Londres, Reino Unido
It was very nice accommodation, quiet small inside but ok, being out all day it was not a problem ok for sleeping in, cleaned everyday, we had a view over the golf course which was nice, the pool was excellent, the area was abit quiet but the hotel laid on a free bus to go out to beach or main shops or if you like walking you could do it in 30mins.The local bus service was also good, We found an excellent restaurant in the Faro 2 shopping centre which was a 10min walk from accommodation The International Torro Steak House, the food was great the service was good we ate there most nights. I would recommend this hotel.
Cordial green golf was fantastic
When i arrived at cordial green golf i thought it was a Beautiful resort.. during the day it was very quiet peaceful.. lovley people were also there.. the food was very good.. i went self catering but they also sold food which helped because of the area.. there is also a minimarket at the resort so you dont have to worry about leaving.. the cleaners were brill at keeping Our room tidy, must of been difficult..
Return to Green Golf
stephano23 , Londres, Reino Unido
This was my 2nd visit to Green Golf. And I've booked again for October 2014. I holiday alone. If you're solo and looking for somewhere to stay in Gran Canaria, I recommend this place. Quiet, immaculately clean and well-maintained, Green Golf is well situated for the beach, dunes and local shopping. The pool is excellent. The Reception staff are very helpful and pleasant and multi-lingual. The on-site supermarket is adequate for basics. The bungalows are not luxurious, but they are clean and well-maintained. Each bungalow has a patio and balcony. The bungalows are not air conditioned but have a large ceiling fan on both floors. Tip 1: on arrival, ask for a safe key. Tip 2: I booked flight and accommodation separately. Taxi to and from airport is 35-40 Euros, (30 minutes) which I think is preferable to lengthy coach transfers. Green Golf is Ideal for families, couples and singles. No frustrating reserved early morning sun-beds here; Green Golf has plenty of room and throughout my stay there was always plenty of choice of empty sun-beds. I spent much of the time reading on my patio with a well-stocked fridge full of beer! I had a lovely, quiet, relaxing holiday at Green Golf. I recommend the place. And I can't wait to return in October.
Yet another wonderful week at Green Golf

This was our 3rd visit to the Green Golf Bungalows and as on previous visits we enjoyed a quiet, relaxing time in well kept accommodation and enjoyed the stunning grounds. We look forward to returning again later in the year.
Ideal Easter Break
2monkeysGlasgow , Glasgow
We went for a five day break at the Cordial Green Bungalows and had a lovely, quiet relaxing time. The apartments are pretty basic but clean and in lovely surroundings. The grounds, garden and pool area were well maintained. The reception staff were very helpful and pleasant. On site minimarket which sold most things and everywhere easily reached by taxi for about 4 or 5 euros. Nice walk down to the beach to the lighthouse were there are lots of lovely restaurants and bars about 20 minutes away. Holiday World is about 5 minutes away by taxi which is great for the kids it has bowling, funfair and arcades. Also anout 10 minutes away to Playa de Ingles for nightlife if you want a late night out. The nicest day out though was to Palmitos Park where they have daily dolphin, parrot and birds of prey shows and although quite expensive you can spend a whole day here easily, well worth a visit :)
Nous y séjournons tous les 6 mois..
Christine T , Chézar-st-martin
Chaque fois que nous allons à Maspalomas, c'est hôtel est incontournable pour nous! Nous sommes assurés d'y trouver un accueil très chaleureux et la cadre est très joli avec ses deux piscines et tous ces bungalows colorés et fleuris!

Schöne Anlage mit großartigen Pools
Peter M , Linz, Austria
Appartments einfach aber praktisch und ausreichend ausgestattet. Sauber, täglich gepflegt, jeden zweiten Tag Handtücher gewechselt. Großes Restaurant mit guter Küche, große Auswahl am Buffet. Sowohl in Rezeption wie auch im Restaurant und Service sehr freundliche, hilfsbereite Leute, angenehme Bedienung. Sehr angenehme Pool-Landschaft mit ausreichend Liegen (ohne Auflagen), leider keine Schirme, nur Haus- und Palmenschatten. Alles in allem ein guter Platz für Leute, die gerne schwimmen und am Pool ausspannen möchten oder Golfer (Platz liegt gleich nebenan). Wer es ganz ruhig haben möchte, ersucht um ein Appartment Richtung Golfplatz
Good value holiday

Just returned from Green Cordial and have been very pleased. We got a late booking £340.00 for two self catering including flights for a week so not sure what to expect but very surprised and pleased. Whole outside area and pool spotless. Cleaners do a great job and are in everyday. Free buses always on time. We found it to far to walk and a lot longer than other reviewers said. Beaches are beautiful and sunbeds cheap.
Easy going
KenKLM , Sutton Coldfield,England
Booked as a last minute to try and get some guaranteed sun and been pleasantly surprised . It's not the Ritz but it is tranquil with plenty of pools and free beds . The accommodation is 1 bed bungalow which is more realistically described as town house as the bed and bath is upstairs with a balcony . The downstairs being basic kitchenette and sofa settee which is adequate . You also enjoy a patio downstairs . We changed room after a day as the outside bungalows do not get much sun so if you want a bit of early evening sun ask for it when you book as I think we were lucky to have our request granted . Food is adequate . We were half board with the intention of eating at a few restaurants as reviews said there were good ones in Maspalomas .. and they were good ! The Churasco on the promenade serves Argentinian beef and we found it superb. Free buses take you from hotel to beach daily so don't worry about being slightly out of it . A taxi is only 4 to the promenade in Maspalomas anyway .

Rechtstreeks geboekt op de website van cordial zelf. Vliegtuig apart geboekt wat een besparing opleverde van 500 voor 13 dagen. Zeer correcte prijs voor hetgeen men aanbied, mooie bungalows 5x in de week gepoetst. Ontbijtbuffet in orde zonder meer, misschien wel spiegeleitjes aanbieden. Voor de rest spreekt de titel voor zich !!

Vectra22 , Maidstone, United Kingdom
Overall very impressed. A nice quiet complex that is well laid out, clean and well maintained throughout. Stayed as self catering. The shop on site was reasonable. All staff very friendly. Hired a car which we would not do again as there is a reasonable bus service and taxi fares are not expensive.
A delightful week in the sun
MaryOLeary_13 , Canterbury, England, United Kingdom
Just returned on 16th October from a gloriously warm and sunny week at Cordial Green Golf. Clean, well maintained, family friendly, quiet and relaxing for those who choose especially with the backdrop of the golf course. Swimming pools to die for - yes two, good food in the restaurant and helpful staff. A thoroughly enjoyable week and we will certainly be looking to return. Thank you Cordial Canaris.
October Sun
kevin1369 , Watchet, Reino Unido
Stayed at the Cordial Green Golf Apartments from 7th to 14th of October. The weather was great and mainly in the high 20's so we spent quite a lot of time lazing around the 'quiet' pool. Our apartment was number 99 and i did request via email room number 98 so well done to the staff at the Cordial green Golf. Apartments were fine but have no air conditioning. I did rent a fan for 15 euros for the week which worked out fine. Our apartment was 5 metres from the pool so we were able to leave the patio doors open and nip in for a drink, loo, food etc. Apart from one day it was very peaceful and relaxing. We did have one day when about 5 kiddies were in the pool and they were very loud and excitable but this was not a major issue. The pools are lovely and are a good temperature. Cant really comment on the food or bar as we were s/c. We ate at various restaurants and all were nice. Beer was expensive is Maspalomas [over 5 euros] and i also got ripped off by a taxi driver on the first night so i would suggest you have small notes or change that you use to pay them with. Overall a very nice holiday. Met some nice people and atmosphere around the place was good.
Nice accommodation
Robert M , Edinburgh, United Kingdom
A lovely clean accommodation, nice bungalow complex with long pools running throughout the complex. Quiet site but perfect for a relaxing holiday. Close to maspalomas and playa del ingles, Would recommend this complex
Return visit
Terry Y , Londres, Reino Unido
Stayed here in February and returning in a couple of weeks time. Had a great time before. Staff were welcoming and very helpful. The self caering room was cleaned almost every day by very efficient and pleasant women. The pool is great, best that it was underused by other guests. All in all a very relaxing place to stay, quiet but not too far from the centre and its nightlife. Looking forward to my return visit
Almost perfect place to stay in!
KarinaVidas , Norheimsund, Noruega
Were there with my husband and my parents - all of us are very satisfied with our holidays. Spacious bungalows, with all you can need (except for a hairdryer). Staff very friendly and nice, hotel area and bungalows are very well maintained and clean. There were many people staying there, but it it was very quiet. The only minus is that it takes a bit of walking if you want to reach the ocean.
Perfect getaway
Currently staying here, LOVELY!! If you are looking for a peaceful getaway which is good for families or just couples this is the place for you, friendly staff, clean and tidy. If you arrive after 9pm make sure you have packed a bottle of water and had a large dinner at the airport as nothing is available till the following morning. My only complaint is the beds are really hard, but with everything else being so good why complain!!!

Myself and my partner stayed here at the end of August for 5 nights. We were on a limited budget and booked this hotel for the price and also due to the good reviews on Trip Advisor. We arrived at 11.00am and were allowed to check into our room early which was nice as we had an early flight and had been up since the night before. The accommodation is lovely, 2 storey apartments with a terrace area with table and chairs and a little garden. Downstairs there is a kitchen area with hob/kettle etc and a living area with sofa and coffee table. A nice touch was the pack of washing up liquid and sponges. There is a TV however you have to pay for this, we didnt bother as we were more interested in sunbathing and exploring! Upstairs is the bedroom and bathroom, there is also a small balcony. The bed was two large single beds pushed together (which I think is normal for the Canaries). The whole apartment was spotless. They were cleaned every day and the garden area is well kept also. The only downside is no aircon. It was in the 30s during our visit and at nice it was still quite warm. There is a fan though. Our apartment was overlooking the Golf Course, in our view this was the best location as it was so quiet. Also the apartments overlooking the pool looked nice it could be quite busy around the main pool. The main pool is by the bar and there is a second pool surrounded by apartments. We chose the second pool and found that this was the quieter of the two. Most of the time there were only a few people in the pool and there was an abundance of sun loungers. We did not eat at the restaurant on site. Visited the on-site Supermarket once but the Supermarket at the Faro 2 centre is much cheaper. Faro 2 is a short walk away. Most of it has now closed down however we went to El Nublo for dinner and it was fabulous! Due to the Euro it is similar prices to eating out in the UK but El Nublo was slightly cheaper than the places by the beach and the service was brilliant. We got a free tapas to try, very large drink measures and a mini magnum! Nice touch. We both had steak which was great and only £13 Euros - definately recommend a visit. The Hotel runs a free bus to Maspalomas beach and Playa del Ingles. We mostly walked to the beach, its about a 20/30 min walk. Once your at the beach there are lots of places to eat. We ate in Meloneras a few times which was lovely as the restaurants are along the beach. Obviously its more expensive here with our meals costing around £50-£60 euros for starter, main course and drinks. We took the public bus to Puerto Rico and then took the boat to Puerto Mogan (£10 return) this is a lovely day trip. Just ask the staff at reception for details of the bus. All in all a great holiday, hotel very clean and quiet, staff friendly. Although we went as a couple there were lots of families here also. I would definately recommend and due to the price we are already looking to return!
Nice familyfriendly athmosphere and good location by the Maspalomas golfcourt
Turid474, Bergen, Noruega
We stayed for 2 weeks in December last year, and 2 weeks 3 years ago. A quiet and relaxing atmosphere and friendly and serviceminded staff. Variation on the dinner buffet, and good food. Nice and cleen pool area. Free bus to Maspalomas beach :-) nice play area for children. Good value for money.
Es el tercer año que vamos y probablemente volveremos, el apartamento con todas las comodidades necesarias y servicio de limpieza 5 días por semana, los jardines y piscinas muy cuidados y agradables, a pesar de estar en pleno Agosto y estar llenos no había sensación de agobio. Lo único que si encontramos flojo este año respecto a los anteriores fueron los espectáculos de la noche, supongo que como todo es debido a la crisis aunque es una pena. De resto genial, íbamos a que darnos 7 días y al final nos quedamos 12. Lo recomendamos para familias que quieran estar tranquilos unos días.
Gran descubrimiento!
Jaisape , Oviedo, España
Todo muy bien, sin duda recomendable. Buena ubicación, calidad/precio inmejorable, personal muy atento, servicio limpieza bueno. Destacaría la tranquilidad y la calidad de las instalaciones. Te vas con ganas de volver...
Todo muy bien
Xavimp71 , Girona
Lo unico reprochable es la television con cargo, no lo encuentro lógico. Los bungalows estan bien, la gente muy amable y las piscinas espectaculares. Con los dos ventiladores de techo no se echa de menos el aire acondicionado. La zona muy tranquila y cerca de la playa del ingles y de Maspalomas con bus gratuito. Volveria a repetir
A relaxing place to stay
dave w , Cheltenham, Reino Unido
Just back from a week at Cordial Green. Wonderfully relaxing surroundings but close enough for livelier evenings for my elder children in Playa del Ingles either by Courtesy bus or reasonably price taxi. Had Golf Course facing accommodation which provided a beautiful and peaceful backdrop to our stay. We were self catering but plenty of choice of restaurants in the locality. Particularily enjoyed Toscana Grill - 5 minutes walk away. Had one bad experience at La Bodega restaurant in Maspalomas. Disinterested, rude and misleading waiter along with food brought cold to the table would mean that under no circumstances would I recommend you to go there.
Excellent relaxing stay
iwoody79 , Nottingham, Reino Unido
It is not often that accommodation booked is exactly as it appears in the brochure or internet but this place certainly ticked all the boxes. Very relaxing stay, very nice grounds and bungalow or thought it was more like a town house, had everything you needed. We did make a few light meals and snacks some days, as all the equipment was available, which is rare as on the occasions when we have gone self catering there is not sufficient items. Staff very helpful and polite, and what a good idea to provide a free bus service to both resorts so lots of choice to visit and get to the sea each day if you wanted. Having been to Grand Canaria many times but not to this resort for nearly 20 years, I would not hesitate to return or recommend the Green Golf.
ivorbigunxx , Nottingham, Reino Unido
stayed here for 11 days in june 2013.cannot think of anything negative to say.food lovely and varied.ALEX the entertainer was good fun! will be returning.highly rated by us-a couple wrong side of 50 !!
A very relaxing complex
dervla , Dublin
We visited in June 2013, at first we were a little disapointed overlooking golf course, but grew to love it. it was so peaceful. We asked to move to the pool side when an apartment was available and i must say both areas are very good. Very peaceful location. The apartments were the best we have ever stayed in, extremely comfortable, safe and excellent service on a daily basis. They were spotless and clean towels every day. I must comment on the staff - extremely friendly and helpful compared to other places i have stayed. We stayed half board. the food was very acceptable and varied, we ate out some nights and you could swap voucher for lunch. teriffic value. the pools were spotless and looked fab. we went to Meloneras most days to the beach and shopping at night time it is about 2 miles away but taxis are plenty. The beach there is fantastic part of it a bit rocky but you can find plenty of sandy areas to swim. i must mention it is very hard to get parking in Meloneras, but the complex do provide free buses if one does not have a car. Visit the market on Friday in Puerto Morgan a beautiful place to go We would definetly return again
Cordial Green Golf excellent
chris_and_sarah_13 , Guildford, Reino Unido
This is now our third trip to Cordial Green Golf, and it has delighted us once again. Set in its lovely and well tended gardens, with helpful staff its an excellent location for a simple break. Whilst the accommodation is simple its always clean and fresh, with maids attending every day (less Sunday) if you want. The only criticism, we have is that the beds are to hard for us The pools are lovely and I don't think I've ever come across one so long, great for swimming lengths! if your that way inclined. The onsite shop is well stocked, and whilst a little more expensive than the nearby super market at Faro 2 its not exorbitant. We have not used the onsite restaurant; however there are a few restaurants in the area, but the choice is better in Melanomas which is only a 4-5 euro taxi ride or half hour pleasant walk away. Most of the local restaurants are in the Faro 2, which is 5 minutes walk away the best is El Neublo on the inside of the ring, good food well priced and excellent service. If you want to spoil yourself then El Rustico is the place to go and is only 5 minutes walk away ( turn left on the main road and just before the first roundabout and its on the right )

abbiamo soggiornato in questo hotel dal 21 al 28 marzo 2013..davvero un ottimo comprpmesso tra prezzo posizione otima cucina e confort..il migliore si hotel4 la struttura si compone di graziose unità a 2 piani ornate da piante e fiori..le 3 ampie piscine quotidianamente pulite, il ricco buffet offre sempre un'ampia scelta di menù dalla colazione abbondante alla cena con piatti tipici dicarne e pesce, contorni vari, pane di ogni tipo e tanta frutta...lr bevande non sono incluse ma il prezzo e' modesto (circa 2 euro per 1 birra media)..le camere sono piccole ma conforevoli, la pulizia e' giornaliera , il cambio biancheria ogni 2 gg, la cucina è ben attrezzata si affaccia sulla veranda cosi da poter mangiare comodamente all'aperto..la tv è a pagamento.wifi gratis ma prende solo nelle zone centrali..dietro l'hotel c'è un gran campo da golf noi abbiamo noleggiato un'auto ma l'hotel dispone di un buon collegamento navetta bus con le spiagge e la promenade al centro comm.le. siamo stati davvero bene tanto da voler prolungare il soggiorno ma il prezzo chiestoci alla reception era alquanto superiore a quanto pagato con la prenotazione on line..peccato!!! la sera ci sono sempre graziosi spettacoli di intrattenimento .l'hotel.e' adatto sia a famiglie che a tutti coloro che amano la buona cucina anche fuori casa...specie gli italiani. .il cordial green lo ripeto non vi deluderà...lo consiglio a chiunque voglia vivere un soggiorno alle canarie in peno relax spendendo il giusto.. e' stata davvero una bella vacanza--spero di tornarci in futuro
Excellent value for money
Den34 , Sunderland, Reino Unido
The Bungalows were in fact Duplexes i.e. living accommodation downstairs and sleeping upstairs. The complex itself was very clean and well maintained. The pools were cleaned daily as were the outside areas. All the staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The complex is situated outside Maspolomas, but there was a free shuttle bus into Maspalomas or Playa De Inglis. The site had a mini-market, but there was a large Supermarket 5 to 10 minutes walk away at Faro 2 with plenty of varied eating places. The Bungalows were large enough for 2 people. A coffee machine was provided, a kettle and a 2 hobs. The sleeping room had 2 single beds. The beds had solid bases and the mattresses were very hard. I asked for softer mattresses the next morning and they were delivered by mid afternoon. We had a bungalow looking onto the Golf Course (18th Green), the only "bug bear" with that was the Green Staff started at 6 o'clock in the morning and it was noisy. The restaurant was adequate. There was a large choice of food, but they were warm. All in all, a very good place to "chill out" and good value for money.
Good location, clean, great pools, attractive layout
John_Bristol_England , Bristol, England
The complex is designed around two large pools (one is closed for May for renovation). Whilst the accomodation is in blocks, they are well-designed and colourful - they look like sets of small houses rather than slabs of apartments. We were facing the golf course, so it was peaceful too. The accomodation is two-storey - ground floor living room (3 person sofa and chair, kitchen area with 2-rings, fridge and cooking utensils (but who cooks on holiday?). Stairs up to bathroom (shower) and bedroom with small balcony with a washing line. Downstairs there was also a table and 3 chairs for sitting outside. It was all well-designed, but compact - great for 2, a squeeze for 3. Only complaint was the beds - boxy and hard. Cleaners came in 5 days in the week, towels were changed twice, everything was very clean. There were also rubbish bins oustside that were emptied daily. Site policy is for quiet after 11 pm. We managed to avoid the entertainment completely; unfortunately on Saturday night no-one had told the entertainment staff about "quiet after 11 pm" - some sort of organist / singer seemed to go on until 2am. But other than this there were no disturbances. Only ate on-site once as I have low expectations of anywhere that has inclusive catering. Free bus to and from the beach (would be around 30-40 minutes walk I guess). On-site shop has the basics; and the Faro 2 centre has a small supermarket with more choice - that's 5-10 minutes walk away. Faro 2 alos has a bar and a couple of restaurants - we tried one and it was better than we expected, but the centre is dispiriting (good design but empty of shops, nmust have opened at the wrong time in the economy). Cordial Green has a private road outside with parking - we had a hire car for the week and used it every day, but also spent a lot of time around the pool. Overall, we had a good holiday, our first visit to Gran Canaria. Really pleased that we found this location, much better than a hotel room.. Would go back again if we return toi Gran Canaria.
beautiful relaxing complex
liverbirdbabe , anfeild,liverpool
Fabulous.If your looking for somewhere quiet relaxing & peaceful away from the rat race this is the place to go.Spotlessly clean inside & out,such a joy to wake up in the morning & sit on the terrace in such lovely grounds.Quite a variety of nationalities,Every 1 was so friendly, staff & guests alike. Try the restaurant if you are not all inclusive as we did, you may like the food or you may not, wee were a group of 5 girls , some liked it some thought it was just ok.You can order a take out pizza for 5 euros (as many toppings as you like) from their kitchen & a huge tray of chips for 2 euros (enough for 2 ppl ) the pools are wonderful & always plenty of loungers available maid service excellent & they are so friendly as are the grounds men. really carnt recommend this place highly enough & it should definately be more than a 2 star complex. can not wait to go back hopefully next year
Excellent location child Friendly
28Carlos, Brujas, Bélgica
As a frequent guest at this hotel I can only recommend Cordial Green Golf to everyone who wants to visit Gran Canaria without all-inclusive formula's or big crowds. This is an ideal place for couples with children or without, has extremely friendly staff, the bungalows are always perfectly cleaned and the food in the restaurant is basic but very good. You get up with a smile here and you go asleep with the same smile
Huge swimming pool, landscaped gardens, villa style rooms
Rebecca A, Londres, Reino Unido
The buildings are all maximum 2 storey and all rooms are in the form of 2 storey villas, with a small patio and small balcony upstairs. Downstairs there is a sofa bed (we had a single sofa bed) and a basic kitchen with hob, kettle, sink and kitchen equipment. No oven. We were half board and the selection of food was adequate and the hot food changed everyday but it was adequate - nothing to write home about. We stayed in 162 which is located just 10 metres from the end of the 50(ish) metre swimming pool. Our end was the shallow end so kids played in the water there which got a bit noisy on some days, but really didn't bother us much. Plenty of sun beds around on site and because of the design of the villas it felt more like a series of streets with lovely landscaping in the grounds, plenty of flowers and a fountain and grass. This was fine for our needs. we hired a car and am glad we did so we didn't have to rely on the free bus and also meant we could drive further along the coast. Amadores beach is the best by far, white sand, warmer water in a sheltered little cove The drive up to Roque Nueblo is ok, but lots of hairpin bends so drive slowly.
Muito bom para 2 estrelas
FunchalMmike, Funchal
Fiquei por uma semana,e devo dizer que gostaria de voltar as piscinas sao enormes.. e super limpas .fez me lembrar Punta Cana! Todos os dias pela manha é feito a limpeza das piscinas e áreas públicas. os bungalows sao boms,com sala razoavel e kitchenet totalmente equipada e suficiente para cozinhar.os quarto e wc fica no piso superior. cadeiras e mesa no terraço junta a sala,muito agradavel para tomar o pequeno almoço muito perto da piscina. Acho que é merecia em vez de 2estrelas 3 estrelas. De negativo so tenho a salientar as camas ligeiramente desconfortavel e o calor no quarto.pois não tem ar condicionado.
Green Golf - Great
william l, Roscommon
Stayed at Cordial Green Golf for one week and thoroughly enjoyed it. On site facilities are adequate and the resort is spotless. The grounds are really well kept and apartments are cleaned daily. There is a good restaurant and bar on site with reasonable prices. The heated swimming pool is the finest I've seen at any resort and there is a kiddies pool plus another large pool on site. An outdoor childrens play area is provided and two girls are on hand to keep the kiddies occupied in the evenings. The apartments are kitted out with the basic necessities and have kitchen/living area on ground floor with an upstairs bedroom, shower room and verandah. Space is a bit limited but fine for two people. For golfing enthusiasts there is a fine golf course on the other side of the perimeter fence and the clubhouse is a five minute walk away. A courtesy bus makes frequent trips to the nearby beach and to the neighbouring resort of Playa-del-Ingles, very handy at times, but really both venues are within reasonable walking distance. Overall, I would have to say the resort met all our expectations and we were well satisfied. The staff were top class. They were extremely helpful, friendly and efficient, which was a great bonus. At the time of year we were there, March, it was quiet but I would expect it to become very lively in high season.
Great stay
dazzlesEngland, england
Stayed for the whole of February,lovely complex very clean and tidy with beautiful trees ,shrubs and plants. The apartment was fine for the 2 of us,a bit tight in the bedroom but that didn't bother us at all. Kitchen was fine,we ate out a lot ,but enjoyed getting back to one/two pot cooking! It was very peaceful during our stay and weather was lovely ...no rain at all. Ate a la carte in restuarant a couple of times and it was very good indeed. Bus shuttle was welcome but only used it a couple of times,we prefer to walk ...35 min stroll to beach ,10 mins to a lovely botanical garden. The dunes and La charca nature reserve are really special .Timeshare wasters(Anfi) are still around as are the shopping discount vouchers touts.However Maspalomas is relaxed and peaceful in the winter,no security issues at all.Great way to spend February!!
Would definately return!!
Gemma F , Sheffield, Reino Unido
We booked our holiday with last minute I wasn't sure about going to gran canaria at first, but i am so glad i did. We wanted somewhere nice and hot to escape England in December and we couldn't have chose a better location and accommodation. I cant understand people who wright negative things and take silly pictures of a small crack in the wall etc and say it was terrible. The apartments themselves were clean spacious and convenient. Each bungalow has its own little front garden with a table and chairs and a large balcony with a small washing line area. On the first floor there is a seating area with a tv (you do have to pay to watch it though, but we didn't see this as a problem we had no time) and a small kitchenette with a breakfast bar, equipped with most things you would need, the only thing it didn't have was an oven/grill but it did have two hobs. Walking upstairs you come right to the bedroom which was a decent and had plenty of storage space for clothes etc. The shower room is next to the bedroom and is also i nice size equipped with soap,towels and plenty of loo roll. the views from the bedroom were lovely looking over the balcony there are lots of different types of palm trees and cacti. Room service comes from monday-friday and are very lovely, collecting petals and sprinkling them round our room :-) changing towels, sweeping etc. No they do not wast up but there not slaves. There are three pools in total, two large ones and a small baby/jacuzzi type pool. The largest of the two is in front of the bar area, and really is nice on a hot day. The bar and reception staff are really nice and helpful. We tended to go out to eat so i couldn't really rate the food but it did always smell really nice when the all inclusive were eating. The only thing we had was a portion of chips "the biggest portion ive ever seen in my life". The drinks seam expensive but when you see how much alcohol there is them its understandable (three quarters of a glass vodka, one quarter coke!) there is also i little mini-mart but i would recommend going to faro 2 to shop for food its much cheaper and only about 10minutes away. The night time entertainment was mainly aimed at kids and maybe could be a little bit better but i think all in all it was a great place to stay. There is a free bus to maspalomas beach, although you could walk it takes about 25mins. Avoid the african ladies at the beach they will hassle you for money and take what ever you have, they stole 20 euros from us, and remember maspalomas is a nudist beach, you will see some naked people, but the sand dunes are big so you can avoid them if you want to. The excursions you can do are amazing we went to Palmitos Park, which was breath taking i would 100% advice going there, Aqualand, and a Deep jeep safari which was also amazing if you like hights :-/ the man who takes you is great a true nutcase hes called frank. there are plenty of things to do here we just ran out of time. I would also say take sun lotion i know it sounds stupid but i aimed to get a tan taking no sun protection at all but it was so hot getting up to 28 degrees in December we had to buy some which is quite pricey.
Hier komen wij zeker terug !!!
Joba8670 , Oostduinkerke, Bélgica
Wij verbleven reeds voor de 3e keer in Green Golf. Het is rustig gelegen, naast de golfterreinen. Er is een dagelijkse shuttle dienst naar Maspalomas en Playa del Ingles, wat ook een pluspunt is. Verwarmde zwemkom in de winter wat eveneens en aanrader is. Zeer vriendelijk personeel. Gratis wifi ook van in de bungalows wat een verbetering is tegenover 2012. Voor vroegboekingen wordt er een compensatie gegeven voor dranken en of eetmalen. Enig minpunt, men moet er anno 2013 nog betalen om tv te kijken...en dat vind ik spijtig. Een locatie die nooit verveeld en waar wij zeker terugkomen.
Comfortable stay
StevenC75 ,
We stayed here in January 2013 and had a very enjoyable stay. Our bungalow was compact but big enough with a large sofa (which looked liked it could double as a 3rd bed), TV (extra charge) and small kitchenette on the ground floor (toaster, coffee-maker, two hobs, fridge, basic crockery/cuttlery) with stairs to bathroom and bedroom above. There were ceiling fans on both floors but no a/c but with temperatures uniformly 20oC-24oC during the day and a little less at night, we didn't need it. Our bungalow was in good condition with our only minor niggles being the very firm mattresses, the beds that moved around the tiled bedroom floors all too easily and the lack of an electric kettle. The resort is a little outside Playa del Ingles (the older area of Maspalomas where most of the resorts and restaurants are) so is best suited to those who plan to spend most of their time and eating on-site or those happy to regularly do the 15 minute walk into Playa del Ingles or with their own transport (e.g. bike or hire car). The trade-off is that the resort is spacious and has quiet areas. The resort was really well kept with the gardens well-kept and colourful, the pool cleaned most days and maid service most days.
2nd visit as good as first
El_Grifo_Seco , Cork, Irlanda
Stayed here first time in July'12 and again from 18-25 Jan'13. General quality and service every bit as good as before. Maid service 5 days a week with regular towel and linen changes (3 times I think in the week). Went s/c so cannot comment on food but they do provide half and full board options. The main pool in front of bar is heated and was comfortably warm even in January. The other pool is not heated and few people were using that. My earlier review gives the main info however we learned a few new things this time. Being January the sun was lower in the sky and depending on the apartment chosen you might get little sun on the apartment The complex faces east-west and I've attached a photo of their site plan with apartment numbers. The best apartments for all day sun and pool view at this time of year would be roughly 86-112. These are near the unheated pool. Otherwise any of the apartments facing the golf course would get sun most of the day being south facing. Also, on their website www.cordialcanarias.com they have a loyalty club and you can get 7 nights for 6 and preferential apartment allocation by registering.Will definitely stay here again.
Good Trip to Maspalomas
GlasgowEurotraveller , Glasgow
This was our first time in Gran Canaria.for a winter-time break. We chose Cordial's 'Green Golf' hotel because of the low level accomodation of terraced houses. We are not fans of multi-storey hotels. The hotel is situated next to a golf course and is arranged, generally, around two swimming pools, one long and large and the other, in a separated area of the accommodation, is a bit smaller. There is a safe childrens pool too. The hotel has 270 two storey houses, completely equipped for self catering, if you wish. Most have one bedroom, but there are quite a few with 2 bedrooms. The main building includes the restuarant, a bar and lounge, a small supermarket and the reception. We found the standard of presentation and cleanliness very good. The staff are pleasant and helpful and manage to communicate with us non-Spaniards in quite a few tongues. When we were there, the guests were from countries like Germany, Holland, Norway, Finland, the UK, etc. So no-one went without food and drinks and directions around the area. HOWEVER, if you are going to eat in the restaurant, in the evenings, watch that there isn't a childrens party night arranged, in the adjacent lounge (until 9pm!). The hotel organises entertainment evenings. The whole area is generally made up of the districts of Maspalomas, Playa del Ingles (main town) and the smaller districts of San Agustin, at one end, and the upmarket, Meloneras, at the other. There are a some suburbs further inland. If you like to walk, for 20 minutes or so, you can reach most of the adjoining districts. There is a good, cheap, bus service and good inter-town bus frequency. We went by bus to see Las Palmas, but it was near enough 'shut', due to the Gran Canaria Marathon Race through the town. We saw the old part of the town, which dates back to the mid 1400's, but most of the town is much newer (and the shops were closed that day! Unhappy wife!). Yes, we want to go back, and with (european) 'winter time' temperatures, in Maspalomas, of 23-24C each day and one hour of rain, we couldn't have asked for more, in January. By the way, if you come in October, November or the Spring-time months, it will be warmer, and a taxi driver told us it gets up to about 45C in August! Megahot! for us from the northern climes. Taxis? cheap too. We booked this one through Thomas Cook and you can book it direct, but maybe without off-season discounts. Best to compare.
Enjoyable family holiday

Would recommend it for younger families. Staff very friendly. We arrived late after 8pm but the staff allowed the kids into the pool. Which was very nice of them. Food is basic but perfect for lunches. We are out most nights which was very cheap
Bungalows très agréables
darwintrudi , Bruxelles
Nous avons réservé 10 jours (période de Noël) dans cet établissement. Tout s'est rès bien passé : nous avons été bien reçu dès notre arrivée. Nous avons demandé un bungalow près de la piscine (plus facile avec enfant) et l'avons reçu. Le bungalow était très bien, assez confortable, la salle de douche assez grande. bon rapport qualité/prix seuls points un peu moins bien : pas de four/micro-ondes et peu de vaisselle
Another great stay at Green Golf!
Ian J, london
My partner and I have stayed at Green Golf appts.on numerous occassions as it affords us the perfect holiday accomodation for our needs.The complex itself is very well maintained and the bungalows,as they are called,provide just the right amount of comfort and space,and kept clean with regular maid service.There is a free bus service to the beach and nearby resort of Playa del Ingles and there is local shopping/eating facilities a short walk away(although a little past it`s sell by date!)There is also a local bus that provides an alternative service to these areas although we have found the walk not too difficult and does not take that long.If I had one complaint it would be the lack of a microwave and the kettle should really be electric!! All in all I would reccomend Green Golf to anyone.
Near the beach

Just returned from Christmas at Cordial Green Golf. These apartments are small but very clean and adequate, the staff are amazing especially Eduardo but that is not taking anything away from the rest. We normally eat out but in this time we found the facilities so good that we stayed in most nights. If you like pools then this one must be the longest you will ever see. It is very convenient to the beach, within easy walking distance, A bus is available if you are feeling really lazy. All in All very good value for the money.
Einfach aber Sauber
Westernoldie , Kisdorf
Wenn man eine zweckmäig eingerichtete aber sehr saubere Unterkunft sucht ist man hier richtig. Der große Pool wurde täglich gereinigt und das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Der Bus-Shuttle zum Strand und nach Playa de Ingles wurde als sehr angenehm empfunden
Return trip
Hubert M , Rumst, Bélgica
Excelent price quality ratio. Very friendly staff. It is since more than ten years that we come back to the hotel, and never regretted it. Situated in a very quiet and relaxing area and with plenty of space, as well in the neighbourhood of the bungalow, aswell as around the 2 big swimming pools.
Nice relaxing holiday!
ScotlandDottytravels , Scotland
Having just returned from green golf and to be honest not expecting much. The holiday turned out to be one of the most relaxing this year so far. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food in the restaurant had plenty of variety. Although the complex is stated as being only a two star,I feel the food was more three star. If your looking for a chilled,no hassle holiday in November this is the place to go.
Lovely Bungalows
Marshmellows15, buckinghamshire
I have just returned from a one week holiday at Green Golf. I went with my boyfriend and had a brilliant time. The rooms were very clean (the only downfall was no air con but the nights were not too hot). The pool is an excellent size and the grounds are well kept. The beach is a lovely 30 minute walk and very easy to get to and a taxi only costs a couple of quid for at night (to malonares where the food and shops are great). We went self catering so only ate out at night but was very easy to make simple lunches in our accom. Plenty of sunbeds for the day to sunbath although no umbrellas. I would recommend this as a place to stay for great value for money.
another enjoyable stay
Goingonhols, Armagh
have been to these apartments a few times,and have found them to be of a very good standard. The apts are comfortable,but have no air conditioning only ceiling fans,with all utensils for cooking,and are kept very clean by the excellant cleaning staff. Pools and gardens are lovely and we found it very relaxing.We ate in the complex and found food to be of a good quality.IF you want a more hectic nite, Playa de Ingles is only a short taxi ride away at 4 euro or the more refined Meloneras with excellant hotels and restrauants. I would return to these apts again ,and feel they have good staff and are good value .
been back again and again
michelle c, Newcastle upon Tyne, Reino Unido
this is an ideal base to enjoy mas palomas or playa del ingles, very nice bungalows very clean with very helpful and friendly staff, lots of food prices, and very reasonable onsite supermarket with all that you would need for self catering, lovely views of the golf course, an all round great place to stay
Enjoyable stay, worth a visit
Tim C, Whippingham, Reino Unido
We visited the Cordial Green Golf Bungalows the last week in September, we had been 4 years ago & were equally as happy this time as the 1st time we visited. I mailed ahead before we arrived asking for a quieter area & we were given this without a problem. We had views of the golf course which was good. The bungalows were clean, spacious & had been modernised furniture wise since our last visit. Maid service was 5 times per week & towels etc were changed on each clean. The pool area is lovely to relax by, plenty of room & very quiet too. We had the half board with evening drinks option & thought this was worth it. There was a good selection of food both for breakfast & evening meal & the evening meal offered a different seletion each evening & there was a bbq on the Wednesday night. Free WiFi is available from the reception, you get issued a password for the duration of your stay. Overall I would recommend Cordial Green Golf if your looking for a quiet relaxing holiday, it's only a 20 minute stroll into Maspalomas & there is a free coach that runs a few times a day if you prefer. The only thing to note is that if your staying in the bungalows overlooking the golf course you maybe awoken by the grass cutting each morning around 6:30am but you get use to it!
Lisa W, Burnley, Reino Unido
Just returned from a week at the Cordial Green Golf Apartments. What a brilliant week we had. To say these apartments are only 3 star they were fantastic. You had everything you needed in your apartment and they were lovely and clean and the beds were very comfortable. We only ate at the restaurant twice at lunch time but what we had was very nice. Head down to the front at Maspalomas (4 euros in a taxi) to the light house and there are several fantastic restaurants, our two favorites were Grand Italia and Maximillians, fantastic food. We will definatley return to these apartments, hopefully 2013. The only negative part of the accommodation is there are no parasols for shade, there are some metal looking bike sheds which were ok but this meant you had to share this with other guests.
trudy s, Amersfoort, Países Bajos
Een heerlijk rustig park,en de bungalows zijn gezellig en knus! Beneden een sfeervolle woonkamer met kleurrijke meubels,en boven nette ruime slaapkamer,met schone ruime badkamer!
Very good
ros22, Limerick, Irlanda
We had a lovely bungalow facing onto pool, the house itself very clean and spacious fid not eat in restaurant so cannot comment would reccomended eating near the lighthouse area.the Mexican and Italian were especially nice we used to walk back to the hotel in 20 minutes it is a quiet area taxis very cheap though 3 to go to lighthouse area/beach
Nous y retournons très bientôt!!
Christine T, Chézar-st-Martin
Nous avons passé 2 semaines cet été et vraiment nous avons adoré ce séjour! Logés dans un joli bungalow duplex avec tout ce qu'il faut pour cuisiner, une terrasse, un balcon le tout très propre. L'ensemble du personnel est très chaleureux naturellement ,et c'est un plaisir d'aller prendre son petit déj et son repas au restaurant. Les deux piscines sont grandes et propres. Tout est fait pour rendre un séjour agréable aussi bien aux familles, aux couples, qu'a une personne venue en solo. Pour faire la fête, il faut aller à la Playa Inglès ou à Yumbo, accessible en taxi,pas cher et il en passe toujours un près de vous. Beaucoup de bien à dire dans l'ensemble après c'est une question de goût. Pour nous, c'était parfait et moi qui aime bien changer d'endroit ou de pays, j'ai déjà hâte d'y retourner une deuxième fois... Pendant les fêtes de fin d'année !
Attention to Detail...
Tingar , Hoddesdon
Stayed here for a week Monday to Monday. Considering it was half term the whole resort was pleasantly not overcrowded. The bungalow, overlooking the golf course was just lovely. The attention to detail from the flower in the tea towel from the maid each day, sweeping of the front patio area and seeing the resort welcome flag being changed to a sparkling white one, was outstanding. The bungalow was clean and functional, with the balcony area and small low line ideal to hang the costumes out at the end of the day! We stayed as three adults, and really found this bungalow to be plenty big enough, the sofa bed in the lounge was really comfortable and great as it didnt need folding and opening as you remove the cushions and cover with bed linen. We went to Melanoras each night for less than 4 euros each way, there were a variety of restaurants accommodating all tastes and budgets though 'Grand Italia' was just divine!...tend to find the dearer restaurants to the right of the lighthouse, the cheaper ones to the left. All in all we had a great week, the weather glorious everyday the pool sparkling with plenty of sun loungers and good food in the restaurant. We personally didn't go to any of the evening entertainment but it was on every night and busy! The small shop on site had all you need for lunch/breakfast and was very reasonable, only maybe 1 euro above what you would pay in larger supermarkets. The whole resort was bright, airy and colourful with the cleaning second to none - big thumbs up to the cleaning staff... Would go again but would only stay overlooking golf course which was much more private than those bungalows overlooking the pool area, the footfall was a lot less. To see the star rating of this resort i think much too low - would class as a 4* at least! Brilliant!

Voor de 2 maal naar green golf geweest, mooie appartementen, zeer mooi zwembad, vriendelijk personeel. Goede schoonmaak, dagelijks vers beddegoed en handdoeken. Gratis busvervoer naar het strand van Maspalomas. zeer goed prijs kwaliteit!
Un posto delizioso
Green g, Italy
Siamo stati in questa struttura dal 24 al 31 maggio 2012; una settimana di solo pernottamento è costata poco più di 200 (la migliore offerta era su hotels4u, andate tranquilli); il primo timore era quello di trovare qualche scarafaggio ............ non ne ho visto uno, e in ogni caso la camera è dotata di antiparassitario spray; le piscine sono numerosissimi e non c'è mai problema per trovare un posto libero; fuori dal residence vi è abbondanza di posti liberi per parcheggiare l'auto, e vi sono navette gratuite che portano alle spiagge di playa del ingles. Le camere erano discretamente pulite e c'era il necessario per cucinare, compreso lo scolapasta; manca un forno a microonde e un asciugacapelli, e la tv si noleggia a parte, ma sono favolose, grandissime e venivano pulite tutti i giorni, i lettini non ne ho usufruito. Ci sono alcuni gatti che girano nel villaggio ma non infastidiscono in alcun modo. Non ho usufruito del ristorante. c'è anche un minimarket interno alla struttra dove si trova un pò di tutto. Posto molto tranquillo, adatto per famiglie.
Great place to relax!
coollondon, London
Stayed there in May 2012. Loved the place and atmosphere! It is actually a small one bed house, you get dounstairs living room with an open kitchen and upstairs a bedroom. Great breakfast and nice dinner, we got it very cheap on price and for this ammount can not argue about the food! It was good. Transfers to beach were ok, but taxi are quite cheap(4 euros). Very clean and safe!
Great location, fantastic Pool!
preecey25 , manchester
Great apartments and best visit to Canaries so far. Staff, helpful andand friendly. Bungalow was more of a mini house. We had one next to the larger pool and it was ideal as it did not get direct sunlight so it was cool all day/night. One bed bungalow is really more of 2 single beds. Nice little kitchen and living area, very smart ,clean and modern. TV/internet is payable but that forced us to be "unplugged" for the week, trust me you will appreciate it! The pool was much bigger than in the pictures and the smaller pool is much quiter area. Great suntrap in the early evening, we very much enjoyed sitting out around pool at about 5/7pm when it was deserted, which for Easter holidays time was amazing. Although self-catering we had option of paying 12.50 for a evening meal which was a buffet and on Weds it is a BBQ which was perfect. Location is perfect, you have so much choice. Golf course just a few steps away and also other resorts within a few euros short taxi ride. Maspalomas/Melnoras were our main choices. Oasis Boulevard in Melanoras has some nice bars and the Faro complex has some fatastic grill restaurants. Also, bus runs from pretty much right outside Green Golf to Aqualand and Palmitos Park which are great fun and only about 70 cents which is a bargain. Number 32/33 goes from outside Faro 2 complex to Puerto Morgan for about 4 euros which if you are confident is much better than booking the trip with a rep. I have to say we did do one trip with rep and this was Canarian Combo; boat trip dolphin spotting, off road jeep and camel ride. Best trip we have been on in Canaries, highly recommended. All in this was a great place to stay as we were in the middle of all the action adn look forward to going again.

ci siamo fermati solo due giorni perche' eravamo di passaggio - la nostra prenotazione on line e' stata perfetta e non abbiamo avuto alcun problema - alla reception personale gentile che ci ha immediatamente assegnato il piccolo appartamento - molto ben tenuto su due piani con una verandina e un balconcino - stupende le due piscine molto grandi e centrali rispetto alla struttura che si sviluppa intorno - ottima ed abbondante la prima colazione al buon prezzo di e 7,50 - ottimo per famiglie - un servizio di bus gratuito porta sia alle dune di Maspalomas che a Playa des Ingles
Beautiful place
DIFFERINGDORA, manchester
My partner and I stayed at the Green Golf bungalows the first week in December and had a fantastic time, the rooms are cleaned everyday with fresh towels given, the staff where helpful. The weather was fantastic, and we enjoyed the pools which are cleaned every morning. I can't praise this place enough, it's a great place in the quieter side of town with a taxi (of which there are plenty) costing 3 euros including a tip into playa de ingles (about 2 pounds). Its a secure place to stay I felt safe as there are gates and you have a card to enter into the grounds. I would really recommend this place and I will be looking forward to my return trip one day in the future.
Stille og koselig med flott basseng
HaakonK_64, Vennesla, Vest-Agder, Norway
Vi var heldige og fikk en leilighet med kveldssol og ut mot golfbanen, men med fronten mot bassengområdet. Mange av leilighetene lå uten sol, så om vinteren bør man forsøke å unngå en av disse. Bassenget var veldig fint; en opplevelse å ha morgenbad i soloppgangen i lengderetningen. Leiligheten var fin; bra system med safe på soverommet for oppbevaring av verdisaker, men dette må man leie ekstra i resepsjonen. TV og air condition er også ekstra, men det hadde vi ikke behov for. Det er ca 20 minutters rask gange ned til stranden i Maspalomas langs den tørrlagte kanalen. Mye vind og kaldt om kveldene; ta med varmt tøy! Nøkkelsystemet trakk ned; vi fikk ett knippe som måtte stå i en bryter på innsiden for å få strøm i leiligheten; låsing innenifra var også med nøkkel. Men ellers fint beplantet og hyggelig betjening. God frokost. Butikk som stengte 19:00 om kvelden, så om man kommer sent bør man ha med seg drikkevann og ev mat fra flyplassen. Et par butikker og resteuranter innen kort gangavstand, ellers flere spisesteder på stranden.
Bra hotell
Voksentpar , Stord
Vakkert hotell med rekkeleiligheter i 2 etasje. Rent og pent, hyppige sengeskift og vask av leiligheten. Liten terrasse med bod og stoler, også plass til et par solstoler dersom man ville sole seg utenfor egen leilighet. Bra soleplass i hagen og rundt bassenget. Det er kjempestort, nesten 100 m langt, og oppvarmet. I februar var det likevel litt kjølig, men ikke verre enn at man kunne ta seg en lang svømmetur daglig. Litt langt til stranden, men hotellet hadde satt opp gratisbusser, og drosje er billig på Canariøyene. Man kan ha fullkost, men jeg vil tro man blir nokså lei av maten etter 1 uke, så vi laget maten selv. Kjøkkenet har det meste av utstyr, men vi savnet mikrobølgeoven og avtrekk (kjøkkenet egner seg ikke for å steke bacon eller løk). Anbefales for den som vil ha en rolig og avslappende ferie. Passer både for eldre og barnefamilier. Greit også om man skal ha full fart - det koster bare 3 med taxi til Playa del Ingles. Det går an å reservere rom på forhånd, vi ba om å få sørvendt leilighet, og fikk det.
Very friendly staff and beautiful surroundings
Sandwellman, England
I have just got back from the Green Golf and both me and my travelling partner were very pleased with this place. The food is lovely and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The beds are really comfortable which is unusual for Gran Canaria as the beds can be very hard. The bungalows are very modern and adequately equipped. There are lots of flowers around the bungalows which really add to the ambiance of the place. The only thing that brought this place down was the pool which was really cold. It is heated but only just. I am not sure I would go to Gran Canaria in february again as some days it was quite cold and windy.
Fantastic value for money
Getitwhileyoucan, Nottingham, Reino Unido
This place is lovely just off the beaten track but not far from everything you want. The rooms are very nice and kept very clean. The staff is very friendly. Its nice and quiet. The pool is lovely - not heated but what do you expect at this price? Very relaxing atmosphere with everything you need.
Nette, ruhige Anlage
Un viajero de Expedia,
Wir waren mit der Anlage sehr zufrieden und empfehlen sie weiter.
Brilliant central location - 30 mins walk from Maspalomas beach and Yumbo centre. 10 min walk to camel trips (head towards Maspalomas beach) - v reasonable price. Appartments are brilliant, good to have an upstairs (bedroom, bathroom) and separate downstairs. Food at hotel is ok but best to eat out, Maspalomas Beach Alcohol in G Canaria is pricey average 5! We bought our spirits at the airport and took them (discreetly) to the bars with us
Germanom187791 , Roma, Italia
tranquillo,silenzioso ottime piscine e alloggi puliti consiglio la vista piscina o vista campi da golf l'altra parte da sulla strada ed oltre a non essere panoramica puo' essere rumorosa per il passaggio di carico e scarico merci ottimo il ristorante.Posizionato a pochi passi dalle dune e'servito bene da taxi ,hanno una navetta gratuita per la spiaggia di maspalomas e playa del ingles.
Nice relaxed break.
Dollos, Kildare
Nice and relaxed stay in the two storey cottages in the cordial green golf. The resort was nice and clean. Staff seemed pleasant and the other holiday makers not causing any problems just keeping to themselves. Great place for an unwind and battery recharge. Not far from either maspalomas or playa del ingles. A free coach to both from outside the resort. However a cab is cheap if you can't wait or miss it. I'd recomend this resort but wouldn't pay more than 70 a night.
Flott bassengområde og rolig sted.
Johan O , Hamar, Hedmark, Norway
Green Golf var et stort leilighetskompleks, men likevel stille og rolig. Flotte bassengsområder ( 2 store basseng), og ikke minst et oppvarmet barnebasseng. God plass rundt bassengene. Ok leiligheter (men bratt trapp opp til soverom/bad i 2. etasje). Da vi ankom var toalettet deffekt, men dette ble relativt raskt reparert etter kontakt med resepsjon. Leiligheten vår hadde delvis sol (trær mot golfbane skygger). Ikke helt fornøyd med maten og servicen i restauranten. Kunne ha hatt en poolbar. Bra kveldsunderholdning med bl.a Flamencoshow og Eagle-show. Gode kommunikasjonsmuligter (bl.a gratisbuss til Maspalomasstranden og til Playa des Ingles). Lett å få tak i taxi. Og det var billig å bruke taxi. For golfinterreserte så var det meget kort vei til golfbanen.
Lugar ideal para pasar las vacaciones pero lejos de la playa
Raquel_Madrid23, Madrid
Estuvimos en este hotel en junio de 2011. El complejo esta muy bien, con unas piscinas estupendas, un pequeño supermercado y un restaurante. Los bungalows tienen todo lo necesario para estar cómodo: la cocina tiene lo imprescindible para poder cocinar, con una pequeña nevera, dos placas, y el fregadero. El baño esta bien, aunque no tiene secador de pelo y el agua de la ducha salpica todo el baño. En la terraza de la habitación hay cuerdas para poder tender (no hay lavadora). El armario empotrado de la habitación es muy grande, con espacio de sobra, y tiene una caja fuerte que es enorme, pero hay que hacer un pago adicional. Las camas son cómodas. El salón tiene un sofa-cama, un sillón y la tv que es de pago adicional (los canales son en su mayoría para ingleses y alemanes). Hay dos ventiladores de techo uno en la habitación y otro en el salón. Nosotros estuvimos en plena ola de calor, y un aire acondicionado habría estado bien, pero claro normalmente no hace tantísimo calor. Lo peor es aparcar en la calle, que es muy estrecha y aparcan coches a ambos lados aunque solo este permitido en uno. A nosotros nos rompieron un retrovisor, así que empezamos a aparcar en el resort de enfrente que tiene un parking más aparente. La playa esta lejos e ir a pie es impensable. Hay un autobús gratuito que te lleva a la playa de Maspalomas (te deja muy cerca) y otro que te lleva a la playa del Inglés (hay un paseo desde donde deja el autobús hasta la playa). Lo peor son los horarios que están pensados para los extranjeros y o vas muy pronto a la playa, o te tienes que quedar a comer en la zona ya que no se puedes volver al hotel en las horas centrales del día. Si haces el horario de los guiris o eres de los que se lleva el bocadillo a la playa no tendrás problema. Ir en coche a la playa esta complicado, porque en Maspalomas, es imposible encontrar sitio para aparcar y en la Playa del Inglés, hay que pagar hora en casi todas las calles o parking.
Lovely Couple Holiday
emma r, Londres, Reino Unido
stayed here from 2-8 January 2012. lovely little bungalows, really nice and clean pools, ok food and reasonably priced, good kitchen with most utensils. nice living area and big shower. only problem is that you do not get a double bed it is 2 singles which keep moving apart. location wise not too far from either melanoras or playa del ingles can take a nice walk or taxi to each is like 4 euro. no complaints on staff. felt secure and safe and also decent entertainment each night. also mini supermarket is next to reception and is really handy. cleaners came every day.
Dejligt sted
Gerner J , Kalundborg, Vestsjalland, Denmark
Cordial Green Golf er et rigtigt rart sted med et særdeles serviceminded personale. Hotelleter lidt slidt men det opvejes af den gode service der er på stedet. Vi var på halvpension og syntes overordnet at maden var ok. Rimelig variation og godt med salat. Måske lidt for meget genbrug af råvarer, men som sagt rimelig variation. Solsengene er dog ikke særlig meget bevendte. Kræver et liggeunderlag for ikke at få ondt i ryggen!
Fantastic Family Holiday
faye d, Bath, Reino Unido
We returned from a great holiday at Cordial Green 14th November. We are a couple in our 30's with an 18month old daugher. The accommodation was perfect for us, the kitchen was basic but enough for a weeks holiday, i prepared a few meals for us while there. The outside space was good, allowing us to put our daughter to bed at 7, then allow us some space to enjoy a bottle of wine and nibbles. We were lucky enough to get a villa overlooking the golfcourse. I would imagine the villa's overlooking the pools would be fine also. try to avoid a villa overlooking the road - if your planning to use your villa a lot in the evenings. I must say the overall cleanliness of the complax was 100% - our villa was cleaned pretty much each day and the pool area was very clean and tidy. Pool was cold but once in it was ok - the baby pool is just as cold, but they soon get used to it.....its only 50cm deep so you can relax knowing she has her arm bands on and can get in and out as she pleases. We hired a car, which for us was a must, even though the airport is only a 20-25 mins car journey away and lots of taxi's around, we wanted to ensure we had a car seat - we used the car most days to travel out of maspolomas - they have a greast animal park in the mountains - Paltimos Park with a great Dolphin show. Maspolomas town is about a 20/25 min walk from the complex, the town has plenty of resturants to choose from. If your wanting a cheap, standard holiday this is a great place, I would definitly reccomend and we will certainly return.
Ideal para desconectar
Melendina Villanueva de la Cañada, Madrid, Spain
LUgar tranquilo familiar, sin lujos pero tampoco le hacen falta. Todo muy cuidado, empleados muy atentos, y serviciales, el buffet se renueva continuamente nunca se acaba, aunque la hora de cierre de la cena(21h) es quizas un poco justa. Pîscinas limpias y sin problema para encontrar y reservar hamacas.
Great holiday. Will visit again!
Ilovetoho, Leeds, Reino Unido
Having stayed at the terrific Cordial Playa in Mogan we said we would give the Green Golf a chance and we are delighted we did. Positives: Quiet location between Meleronas and Playa del Ingles. Free courtesy bus during the day and both resorts only 3.5 euros by taxi. Faro 2 shopping centre only 2 min walk away. Great supermarket, cafe and a few restaurants. We would highly recommend the Broncemar 2. Great service, brill food and fantastic value. Apartments are great. Living room and kitchen downstairs and bedroom and bathroom upstairs. Small balcony upstairs and a small patio with a table and chairs downstairs. Two fantastic pools (although they can be a bit cool) Onsite supermarket has most of what you need but cheaper and better choice in Faro 2. On site bar open till 11pm each night and they have pool tables and table tennis. There was also nightly entertainment but we didn't go so can't comment. Negatives: Beds are really hard and it does take a few days to get used to them. Although the rooms have ceiling fans they can get extremely hot. Overall a great stay and we will definitely use this complex again as it offers clean accommodation, great pools and fantastic value. Not sure about previous comments regarding the reception staff etc as we found everyone friendly and helpful.
Relaxing break - good facilities
JEH48, Stockton-on-Tees, Reino Unido
We went to Gran Canaria to chill out for a couple of weeks and found both the weather at this time of year and the facilities at the Green Golf were ideal for us. The apartments, surrounding grounds and the public areas are of a high standard, well maintained and clean. As a strong swimmer, I particularly liked the large swimming pool, which is approximately 100m long. During our 2 week stay we ate at our appartment and obtained our supplies from the very good supermarket at the Faro 2 shopping centre approximately a 1 km walk. There are a few restaurants within a 1 km walk of the hotel serving typical Spanish holiday food, but we did not try any of these. The hotel also serves buffet style meals.
a perfect place for a holiday

Perfecto para descansar e ir con niños
Son aprtamentos individuales, en dos plantas, con una terraza y un pequeño jardin individuales.Muy nuevos, zonas comunes muy cuidadas, todo muy limpio, la piscina gigante. Buenas conexiones de autobus a la playa si no quieres ir andando.
Good Facility
TMitch49 , Perth, Reino Unido
Thuis is a nice family resort with great pool and clean aprtments. Although small they are kept very clean and the staff are very helpful. Downside would be the distance from any other restaurants, shopes etc. Need to use taxis to the bigger centres but at 3 - 5 Euros a trip not too much of an inconvenience. Excellent service from restaurant staff who manage very well considering they have very little English.

l'impressione generale è buona, il rapporto qualità/prezzo è centrato. il complesso è stato ristrutturato da qualche anno ed è in buone condizioni. i box doccia sono piccoli i servizi a pagamento sono un pò alti rispetto alla struttura le due piscine sono godibili gli intrattenimenti serali sono in lingua inglese, tedesca o spagnola. la reception in generale ci ha accolto e assistito bene, anche se in alcuni casi qualche receptionist è mancato nell'assistenza. il personale delle pulizie cordiale e discretamente efficiente.
very enjoyable
mike s , Uxbridge, Reino Unido
Cosmopolitan crowd, mainly family orientated. Excellent swimming pools with childrens sections never became too crowded. Well maintained pools and complex. Very nice gardens. Fairly basic sunbeds, but enough of them - alas significant reserving with towels going on in spite of the stated policy. Rooms are very fit for purpose and frequently serviced. Bed matresses are very firm. Third downstairs beds are also firm and would be ok for an adult. Rooms would seem to have been built with air-con, but now have a celing fan in lounge and bedroom only. We found this only marginally satisfactory (temp = 30C when we visited). The ceiling fans are not as powerful as they should be. Ask for room away from the road - it can be noisy (cabs, deliveries etc all hours), also those rooms have their backs to the prevailing breeze and are therefore significantly hotter by day and night. The quietest rooms are away from the reception area. Minimarket ok but expensive, 5 min walk to Faro 2 shopping centre finds a less expensive and better stocked supermarket. Best value shopping we found was HiperDino a 5+ minute trip in a car, (free underground car park - driving licence ID required to support debit card here). We walked (30mins) to Melonares/Maspalomas frequently. A mid priced evening main course plus a drink = £20 per head. There is a market area to the East of the lighthouse where dining prices should be cheaper - but do not appear significantly so. Drinks prices are significant contributors to the total bill - but seldom advertised. Otherwise we went to Playa del Ingles (£5 cab) were there was similar dining available. We found restuarant Columbus (beach facing) slightly cheaper than average here. Nearby Faro 2 has some dining. You can tell that business is not good here by the number of empty retail units. It does still have a number of restuarants operating, including a reasonable Chinese which is a cheaper option. Faro 2 provides the nearest dining to the hotel. For lunches we tended to self cater which the accomodation facilitated. If eating out, many resturants seem to have a lunchtime bar menu which is a lot cheaper (and simpler) than the evening menu. We tended to spend the mornings poolside and then go out in the afternoon. We had a car for 10 days. The roads into the mountains are well surfaced, and the scenery spectacular. The monutains contain extensive pine forests which are a contrast to the arid coastal strip. We put over 1000kms on the car in our stay. The mountain roads are exceptionally twisty with steep gradients - an automatic is recommended to make life simpler than constant gearchanging. The hotel site is perimter fenced to a good standard and has a security guard in attendence most of the time. Adequate parking outside the hotel. Compimentary shuttle bus to Maspalomas/Playa del Ingles (although we found the schedule did not suit). Regular buses stop nearby, and plentiful cab availability. TV available to hire (at least one UK channel), and Wifi. An excellent holiday in a good location
really nice clean apartments
Eire27 , Dublin
These were the nicest SC apartments I have stayed in. The rooms were cleaned daily and sheets/towels changed mid week. The ceiling fans are poor and air con, tv and safe were extra but we did not bother with these. The pool bar closes very early and serves snack meals during the day. The supermarket on site is more expensive than the Faro2 supermaket (about 10 minute walk away). Not much to do in the area but taxi's are only a few euros to Maspalomas/Playa del Ingles. The pool is fantastic and very clean. The sun loungers were plentiful but very hard (can buy cushions in supermaket for 7 euro) and do not adjust. There are a lot of ants so need to sweep apartment floor regularly if eating in the apartment. No sign of cockroaches. Apartment grounds very well maintained. free bus to the beach was useful. I would stay here again, but not for you if you want to be in the middle of the action
Nice but in the middle of nowhere
rach14milli ,
(Aged 25 and 34) My boyfriend and I have just returned from the Green Golf after a weeks relaxing stay. We had an enjoyable time but we would like to share a few little tips with you all. HOTEL: * Very clean apartments and well equiped with kitchen utensils if you are staying SC. * Rooms are complete with ceiling fans (but they do not work very well - air con would be better suited for the hot July weather). * Excellent powerful shower but be warned your bathroom may flood on the floor. * Beds are very hard but its sleepable for a week. * Two large pools - EXCELLENT! * Sunbeds get 'reserved' early (the towel trick) if you want one be sure to get up early. * KEEP DOORS LOCKED! Whilst there a family opposite our bungalow had cameras and bags etc stolen. Our advice always keep the door locked! SURROUNDING AREAS: *The hotel is situated in a bit of a no mans land - cue the tumble weed. If you like to venture out during the day or at night then this hotel is the wrong location for you. * FARO 2 - Has a cheep supermarket and 2 or 3 places to eat but even in the evening this place is DEAD! It seems like the Faro2 was hit had by the credit crunch which is a real shame as the area could do with something with a bit of action. * Playa del Ingles - Very lively, very fun. Just a short taxi ride for a couple of euros. The Jumbo is a place to go and experience. (Be open minded). * Meleneras - more expenisive, lovely atmosphere, excellent restaurants, designer shops. Go to eat at the Faro Grill an order the steak - THE BEST STEAK YOU WILL EVER HAVE! Or the Italian and order the pizza its HUGE! AQUALAND: See trip advisor review of here
Sono veramente rimasta...
Un viajero de Venere.com Pistoia, Italy ,
Sono veramente rimasta soddisfatta,è un bel complesso,non li definirei come bungaslows,ma sono mini appartamenti, molto confortevoli e arredati simpaticamente.Pulizia molto efficiente e cambio degli asciugamani tutti i giorni.Il personale è molto gentile e professionale, che dire è il posto perfetto dove passare un ottima vacanza in pieno relax.
Im Grossen und Ganzen empfehlenswert
Un viajero de Expedia ,
Der Erholungswert war diesmal nicht so gut, aber grundsätzlich kann man die Anlage empfehlen. Es sollte aber wieder etwas renoviert werden!
Relax relax e relax
Il complesso è formato da ceseggiati da 8 abitazioni ciascuno, ogni abitazione si sviluppa su due piani: il piano terra con divano, tv, cucina, penisola con sgabelli, al pinao superiore camera da letto con armadio e bagno con doccia. C'è poi una terrazza con il filo su cui stendere la biancheria e al piano terra portico con tavolo in plastica con sedie. La struttura è stata recentemente rinnovata. La cucina offre tutte le stoviglie e le pentole, manca solo un forno, c'è anche il tostapane. Lenzuola, asciugamani e pulizia sono compresi, come pure la navetta per andare in spiaggia, è impensabile andare a piedi. Si trova di fronte al Golf principale. I bungalow sono o fronte golf (questo era il mio, molto tranquillo), fronte piscina o fronte strada. Le piscine sono due per adulti davvero molto grandi e poi c'è quella per i piccoli, tutte pulitissime. Non c'è animazione, volendo ci sono bar e ristorante. Le foto che ci sono nel sito corrispondono al vero pertanto non ne pubblico di nuove. Sono stata davvero contenta, ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. C'è il wi-fi in piscina. Buon parcheggio esterno.
Perfect base for Self Catering holiday in Maspalomas
palehad, Exeter
We were so pleased with our choice to try Green Golf, we had been recommended the place but that doesn't always mean much until you try it yourself! The small duplex bungalows are ideal for couples and small families, although I would like to stress that families with very young children should be aware that the stairs leading up to the bedroom and bathroom could prove hazardous as they are quite steep and of a marble like surface. We found the bedroom to be more than adequate and the broken mirror and troublesome shower were fixed within an hour of reporting them to reception. The kitchen is not too bad, there is a toaster and coffee maker, with a small fridge and two ring cooker. Although it could have benefitted greatly from a table top oven or microwave. The site shop is a little low on choice and is quite expensive, but we followed advice and went out by taxi to do a big shop for groceries on the first day. The courtesy bus to the beach is invaluable and is a great service, the reception staff were not too bad and on the whole were very helpful....if not the happiest of souls! We stayed alongside the golf course so were away from the pool area and highly recommend asking for this option direct from the complex ahead of travel. The pool itself was in great order and we never had a problem on the rare occasion of looking for a sun lounger. Nice and cheap to get a taxi into the Cita and Yumbo centres.... Will definetly be back to have another stay at the Cordial Green Golf in the near future.
Great place to stay
coffeeandbiscuits, Edinburgh
This complex is absolutely lovely, the staff are very friendly and helpful, the whole place is kept as clean as possible, and the pools are huge! This is an ideal place to come if you are on a holiday with a partner or young family. The shop on the complex is a bit pricey, although it is ideal for all the little bits and bobs that you need such as milk and cereal. However, if you can, try and do a shop for food in one of the local, bigger supermarkets. If you don't fancy getting on the free shuttle bus to the beach, the walk only takes about 20 mins (and there are a couple of places to stop for ice creams on the way!). Overall, we would definitely recommend the Green Golf and would stay there again if we go back to Gran Canaria.
Excellent value for money
Really impressed with apartments, clean and well maintained, staff friendly and spoke English. Free wifi in bar area. large clean heated pools, quieter one away from bar. would recommend requesting a room that looks out on to this area as much quieter. Free bus also put on into playa and maspalomas. lovely sea front walk in maspalomas with good selection of bars and restaurants. my concern was going to be hard beds but they weren't to bad at all.
great value for money, great holiday, great accomodation
jd4ke, Londres, Reino Unido
We have just returned from staying at the green golf and what a lovely surprise it was. Having also booked cheaply through teletext holidays we were abit nervous of the outcome. We firstly asked for a pool view villa while booking the holiday via teletext and the lady on the phone said that we may not get one depending on availability. However, when we arrived the sun was shining and the staff on reception were incredilably friendly (i cant understand why the other reviews say they weren't) and gave us an easy map to find our villa which was right by the pool to our surprise! The villa was great- all what you needed for a 3* accomodation- very clean and the cleaners ask you themselves whether you want the room to be cleaned and beds or towels changed. This made a change seeing as other places you stay at they just barge in without notice. We opted for self catering and only ate once at the hotel which was on the bbq evening- meat was fresh cooked in front of you by the chef. Lots of choice for salads etc and also desserts. We mainly ate in maspalomas near the lighthouse where there are a parade of beautiful restaurants situated right on the seafront. The front of each restaurant is glass so you can eat and watch the sunset at the same time. Everyone that worked in all of these restaurants were very polite and they weren't trying to drag you in by your arm either. They let you take your time by looking at the menus if you didnt fancy eating there they wished you a lovely evening. All in all, we have decided that we WILL definately will be staying here again as the complex was beautifully kept and it being quiet with plenty of sunbeds and two amazing pools. This holiday was fabulous and it was a bonus as it was great value for money! :)
Very Nice, Would Go Back
MeliaGill, Leeds, Reino Unido
We got back from The Cordial Green Golf Appartments Monday 6.6.11 after a very enjoyable, relaxing holiday. Only had breakfast there the day we were coming home but it was very good and good value at 7.5 Euros. Pools are gorgeous, no shortage of sunbeds and big enough for everyone to enjoy. Appartments quite basic but practicle. Kettle took ages to boil as was a whilstling one on the hob top! Two hobs, toaster, and untensils for number of people staying there. Beds were quite uncomfortable but we managed, although, I had to swap my solid foam pillar for one of the cushions from the settee downstairs! Was dubious about the reception staff from previous reviews but they were all fine, helpful and friendly towards us. The ladies in the minimarket were also very pleasant. No complaints about these appartments and we would gladly go back.
Great value, quiet and well laid out
ScotlandMrs_P, Scotland
We stayed here based on reviews and were not disappointed. Great place, apartments are not big but perfect for 2 with the upstairs bedroom/bathroom a huge benefit - nobody scraping furniture above you while you try and sleep! The 2 pools are excellent and we had no issues with getting sunbeds, shade etc. It was lovely to be able to step out your door onto a sunlounger by the pool. Did not eat there so cant comment on the food. It was really quiet at night, great for a relaxing break and we slept til late morning without any issues. Only downside was the beds (very hard) otherwise can't fault it. Hiring a car for 2 days was worthwhile. A trip to the mountains where roads are not for the fainthearted (when it says bend it is not joking) and Puerto de Mogan was lovely. The onsite supermarket is well stocked but expensive. There is a big supermarket about 5 mins walk away which is much better value. A 30 minute walk takes you to the beach and a taxi back at night was leass than 3.5 euros. Restaurant Rustico a 2 minute walk away was lovely and the best food we ate - German owners, lovely service and non smoking inside which was a joy (there are smoking tables outside).
Fabulous the second time round, but needs a little improving in some areas
My partner and I returned for our second stay on may 14th for 11 nights. We stayed here last year and compared with the many similar style resorts in maspalomas, the accommodation is up to date and kept immaculate, hence our return. For what you pat, it's also amazing value on self catering, we paid around £25 per night. The accommodation is upstairs downstairs with a balcony and nice terrace. If you are a couple I would recommend you request a room overlooking the golf course, as families tend to be housed around the pool and it can be a bit noisy. We have never eater here, but the food looks fine, we just prefer to eat at broncemar restaurant in the faro 2 or down in meloneras/playa del ingles. Although there were a few families, it remains mostly couplea ensuring you can relax by the pool etc etc and not listen To screaming families all of the day!! Wonderful! So, the pro's. Great value for money Immaculately clean, cleaning is virtually daily Nice accommodation Firm beds Beautiful and large pools (2) Mostly couples Near to shopping centre and nice walk to beach Free wifi in the pool/bar area Ceiling fans upstairs and downstairs Very safe Peaceful Modern by cOmparison to other nearby resorts Plenty of sunbeds The cons! Tv and actual air conditioning (wall mounted) are chargeable. I'd rather pay an extra £50 a week to have it all included, but they really need to het some decent sky channels. Sky news is the only English channel. Not that You miss tv on holiday, but sometimes it's nice. Sunbeds really do need mattresses! This is 2011, the days of solid plastic and hard sunbeds really is over, it's not the 80's anymore. They really are uncomfortable and this is my big gripe, as it's hard To relax around the pool being constantly uncomfortable. Invest in proper kettles. It must cost them much more in electric to have guests using the hob to heat water. They have toasters and coffee machines, but no kettle. You must take an iron too, as these are not provided. I will definitely go back, but really wish they would improve the Sun loungers. Great resort overall, book it!
Great place to stay
EssexBorris, essex
Stayed in these apartments last year as a late minute booking not expecting to much and ended up having one of the best holidays i've had. Every apartment has a small downstairs and upstairs with a balcony which is nice, The location is a bit out of the way but only 5 euros to either Maspalomas which is very nice and the not so nice playa de ingles. The only problem i had was that the pool was so cold, even after you had been in for a while it still didnt warm up!!
great holiday, but with early morning wake ups
signum37, portsmouth
i must point out firstly, this was,nt my first choice. thomas cook messed my plans up. on arriving we were met by good english speaking reception staff, who delt with us quickly and politely. with the directions in hand, we headed towards are room. it looked great from the outside and nice and modern on the inside. it had all the things you would expect from a place at this level. tho it also had nice little touches like flowers in the room. all was good there untill the mornings, 7 o,clock with out fail the groundsman from the golf course would start up there engines and drive us crazy for the next hour. this is the first of my gripes, the second one is if you want to get anywhere, you either walk for 20 minutes or get a taxi. this soon adds up over a 2 week stay at 3-4 euro,s a trip. other than that the place is a great place to take the kids, coz they have very large swimming pools, and they also put on entertainment most nights tho i did,nt go to any. the food i also can,t comment on as we ate out all the time. if you feel the need to eat out like we did i recommend the dusseldorff at the fara 2 on level 2 for breakfast, mostly english produce and for evening meals travel to the yumbo centre and go to marbella,s a great little family run business. and if you want to splash out just a little more ask a taxi driver to take you to the barbados restuarant. for those that like to walk around markets and carboot sales these are within walking distance, the carboot sale happens every sunday. great just to wander round, and the market happens twice a week, wednesdays and saturdays. head towards hoilday world its just past there, up the hill. if you like to venture out then catch the number 90 bus to vacendario shops, good day out and cheaper products. (remember the stop you get off is the stop you get on to go back) this cost 2.70 euro,s which is very cheap. just email me if you need any other infomation, always happy to help.
Lovely accomodation - rubbish cooking facilities!
lucyandmel, Northampton, Reino Unido
Myself and my partner stayed here for two weeks self catering in May. What was good? Apartments kept spotlessly clean and ours was poolside, modern and comfortable. Staff helpful and friendly, we didn't need them much but when we did they didn't disappoint. Maids always smiling and extra touches like fresh flowers every day make a difference. Taxi's were cheap although we chose to walk a lot anyway, Yumbo centre to Hotel at midnight was just 3.50 euros. Free shuttle bus was useful and the timetable was good although it doesnt run in the evening. Pools are a great size and the layout means kids didn't bother us and there was always a quiet spot for swimming if you want to. What was not so good? VERY limited cooking facilities - there is no oven, just two hob rings and a toaster and kettle. This meant you couldnt really cook and had to eat out every night which gets expensive for two weeks. Hotel reference book says no reserving sunbeds and no loud music however this was not enforced and some chavvy (british) people reserved sunbeds right outside our apartment every day and then played music so that we couldnt enjoy sitting outside on the terrace, luckily this was only the last two days so we didn't complain however if it had been at the start of the holiday we would have had to say something to staff. Others round the pool were also affected by it. In general we had a great holiday, Pride was fantastic and the hotel made a good base, however we did not save any money by going self catering and therefore next time i would be inclined to stay in Playa del Ingles to be nearer the facilities of Yumbo Centre etc and to go all inclusive. I cannot comment on the food at Cordial Green Golf as we didn't use it although plenty of people (mainly German) seemed to enjoy it. The beaches are great too but i would recommend Playa del Ingles beach as it is sandy compared to Maspalomas which is very pebbly and also food and drink is cheaper in Playa.
a good holiday, only a few minor things that you should know about
Lyc1989, Londres, Reino Unido
My partner and I stayed here last year and were pleasantly surprised. We only paid 200 pounds for our package holiday, which included our flights, transfers and a weeks accomodation in these bungalows which was a fantastic price. We weren't expecting the apartments to be as nice as they were. We were self catering which I would reccomend as we only had one meal in the hotels restaurant and it was very poor. The bungalows are clean, and decorated nicely inside, however upstairs the bedroom is quite small and the balcony is also quite small, although the patio downstairs makes up for this. Definitely book a pool view, as the pool is around 2metres away from your front door which is amazing! The pools are huge and are kept very clean! also it was very quiet there when we went which was lovely as we had the pool to ourselves alot of the time. If you are given a room that doesn't face the pool it is likely you will be overlooking a golf course, which sounds lovely but all you can actually see is the wired fence from your balcony so ask at reception if you could be moved to a pool view. There are ping pong tables and pool tables right near the swimming pools which are great fun and the pool bar serves amazing cocktails at a cheap price! In the evenings there isn't much entertainment within the complex, but if you take a trip into Maspalomas there are some lovely restaurants and bars overlooking the sea. The bungalows are in a good location, near to maspalomas and the main town centre with lots of shops, bars, watersports, and restaurants, however, i would recommend hiring a car as it does take around half an hour if you walk which isn't fun when its around 30 degrees. The weather was hot every day, we only had two days where it was a little cloudly but the rest of the time it was lovely. The only main thing that I found very annoying was that there was no air conditioning in the rooms, and so my partner and I spent many nights laying in bed with frozen bottles of water on our wrists to keep cool! All in all, the bungalows are extremely good value for money, with fantastic pools, lovely staff and in a good location, as I said there are only a few minor things which you may want to consider before booking. I would definitely visit these bungalows again for the price we paid!
Nice Relaxing Stay
steadlynn, Leeds
Stayed for a family beak for 12 days from 4th to 16th April. Weather really good pleasant to be out all day without the heat been unbearable. Booked flights, accommodation and transfers through travel republic, used them a few times and never been disappointed. Accommodation Not the most modern but clean and very well kept, lovely gardens and fab pool area, one of the best and most spacious pool areas in small self catering accommodation I have stayed in. Although prefer to go self catering dont really do much cooking. Just find it nice to be able to have breakfast and a snack at lunch time. Cooking facilities limited however personally I was happy with them. Would at times found a microwave handy just from an ease point of view. Not the type of accommodation to go to if you were planning on eating in most of the time, but more than adequate for our needs. Did not really find the bar staff or reception rude, nor overfriendly, although happy with the service. All apartments only single beds, not double, lots of reviews beds really uncomfortable but personally I have slept in worse. Cleaning of a good standard, sheets changed every 3/4 days. Clean towels however a tip is to throw them all on the floor in the bathroom if you want replacements, if you hang them up tidy they will not replace them. Pool area excellent with most apartments having a small terrace surrounding pool. Initially given apartment on road side, asked to be moved and reception were accomodating advising us they would move us in two days. Only unpacked enough clothes for 2 days and they were good to their word, seems to e pretty common pracite. Excellent shower with good warm water supply and not a measly trickly. Our shower did not leak at all, however used ourtosey room on departing and this was appauling so need to be carefull with this. No issues with sunbeds etc however did go low season so not sure what it would be like in august. Entertainment very limited and mainly German however if you have very young children and want them to have a bit of a dance/mini disco to tire them out before bed then it does the job. Bar area nicely kept with WIFI Free which is a bonus. Food ok for snacks ie burger, chips pizza etc. Only time ate in on an evening was BBQ night which was ok value. Salad bar 4/5 meats baked potato and 5/6 sweets to choose from for 12.5 euros. Not sure would have eatne in any other night. Surroundings - near by All within walking distance if you want to but mainly paid 3 euros in a taxi where ever you go Maspalomos/Melenores Easy to walk to Maspalomos approx 20 mins. follow the storm drains and you cant go wrong once you get to the seafront you walk along the prom/sea front (keeping the sea to your left) to the lighthouse this is maspalomos area, plenty of bars/restraunts. Once you reach the lighthouse on your right , walk furhter 5 mins and you are then at Melenoras, a little bit more upmarket and some nice cocktail bars etc. Eat out in the resteraunts by the Boulavard, bit more expensive but very nice, couple of live singers for entertainment Playa del Ingles - appox 40 mins walk and up a fairly steep hill, not particularly scenic but do able if you want to More for the younger crowd however did find it cheaper here. Not my scene but if you are into cubing into the early hours then you need to be in the Kazbar. If you stand at the main entrance to the beach and look up to our eight yo will see some steps in the cliff side. You need to climb these and the kazbar area is at the top of here, a little bit seedy but again if you like that kind of thing you can find it. Yumbo centre 20 mins Complex of bars and shops, predominantly gay area, again I was fine with this during the day not sure what is was like at night. Holiday world Good for kids if you get fed up of the pool and beach, small fairground and bowling. Eating out. Had a meal at Ruticos which is just 2 mins up road from appartments, although nice food a little up market and more expensive, not the best if you have children with you. We were overcharged here by approx 60 euros, went back following day and had no problem getting this refunded, explained they had a problem with till. Restraunt on corner the just by start of storm drains, cant remember what is was called Ate in here pretty bog standard, singer was pretty appalling however did give us a bit of a laugh. Got bitten by mosquito. Chinesse again just by the bridge over the storm drain. All painted red out side and was called Bamboo ?? excellent value for money and very good food probably cheapest meal we had all holiday, cheapest house bottle of white all holiday approx 9.5 euros. Meal for 4 adults and one child including deserts and coffee bottle of wine and maybe 2/3 cokes approx 85 euros , had banquette for 4 and childrens meal. Very clean and good service was a little empty and lacked a bit of atmosphere but went in twice so obviously worth a second visit. Faro 2 Shopping center approx 7/10 mins walk from apartments. Couple of eating places in here, places to watch football if you want. Bit run down and lots of shops etc closed down. reasonable small supermarket. Ate in Ell Nublo twice, good food and service. They do a fab champagne Sangria, (usually got this complimentary at end of night) Gran Chaparall area. this is not far from Yumbo centre however we got a taxi here from apartments. We were told by a local English lady that this was one of the cheaper areas catering for the English and Scandinavian. It was cheaper to eat and drink out here with a pint of beer been approx 2.5 rather than 3.5 however found it a bit chavy personally, if I wanted to go to english bars I could do that in england, for me this is not what I go on holiday to do. If you are on a budget and with young children a bit of entertainment here and would same you some money. Fountian de Trevi Near the end of Maspalomos near the CASINO. Had a very nice meal in here in very nice surroundings on our last night. Good service and good food (dont get the lamb chops, do get the steak) but pricey but lovely italian resteraunt Places to visit. As there were 5 of us a bit of a pain if you wanted to go far in taxi. We did however get a large taxi into Puerto Rico for approx 25 euros. Not much to see here but I always like to visit neighboring resorts when I am away. Normal sized taxi would probably cost about `18 euros. From here we got a ferry to Morgan approx 6 euros each. Absolutely fantastic place very picturesque, would not have wanted to miss it, my next visit to Gran Canaries will defo be to stay here. Got bus back from here to Maspalomos , bit of a hairy ride over the cliffs/mountains but approx 30 mins ride. Ask for the bus station all buses leave from here. Tips. Dont use the apparment supermarket if you can help it , it is very expensive. The one up by Rusicos is ok. However if you are on holiday for 2 weeks it is a good investment to get a taxi for 4/5 euros and go to the Euro Spar in San Fernando, get a big shop in and it will save you a fortune. If you are a wine drinker and like a Dry wine try the bottles of LIRIA i think it was calledv the red is also good . You can get this at Euro Spare for about 1.25 euro, in the supermarket at Faro 2 it is still under 2 euros. Only buy milk daily we found it went off/sour very quickly. In a nut shell would I recommend these apartments, yes I would they were fantastic for family and groups who wanted a chill out holiday, and happy to have a bit of a walk before eating on an evening. I did however find the eating out fairly expensive and everywhere had the same menu so by the end of the 2 weeks I found myself getting a stalled off with the food.
Ypperlig familiehotell for familie med badeglade små barn
GryML, Tromsø, Noruega
Vi er en familie på 4, 2 voksne med 2 barn hhv. 4 og 1 år. Vi fikk bekreftet, ved henvendelse direkte til hotellet, at de hadde barneseng til oss. Og ikke bare det, de hadde også madrass til senga! Ikke alle steder vi har fått det! Etasjeleiligheter er kanskje ikke de mest praktiske for barn som ikke har begynt å gå ennå, men denne fungerte helt fint! Leiligheta var utstyrt med det den skulle ha. To 90cm brede senger oppe og en sovesofa nede som fint lar seg gjøre å sove godt på for en voksen, eller ett barn. Vi anbefaler frokostbuffeten på hotellet, den var kjempeok! Deilig start på dagen for hele familien. Vi ba også om å få leilighet nært barnebasseng og det ønske oppfylte de også for oss. Glimrende å ha kort vei å springe når barna skulle skiftes på etc..
highly recomended
roykamy, Immingham, Reino Unido
rooms and bedding very clean very quiet no noise after 2200 single beds only but comfy ,shop not to bad corner shop prices just avoid english brands taxies very cheap average 3euro20 rustico restaurant very good 5mins walk staff were all polite some have poor English-speaking skills but no one rude good value dont expect extensive entertainment from a small complex
Lovely pools, quiet but handy location, no double beds!
JonBaud, Cheltenham, Reino Unido
We've just returned from 4 nights staying here. On the whole everything was as we expected with the accommodation (thanks to all the previous reviews on here). We were staying in room 152 which faced the small access road, but it wasn't noisy, just lacked a nice view. Everything was ok with the apartment, except the shower door wouldn't seal properly so the bathroom floor got wet after showering. Also the water temperatures seemed really unstable, one minute it was fine, the next you're getting burnt or frozen... Also they have no apartments with double beds, so we had to push the two singles together, which made for some interesting episodes as one of us invariably fell into the crack! You have to pay to use the TV or hire a safe (if you wish). Shame the TV isn't included in the price, as there's only 1 English channel. We didn't use the resort restaurant in the evening, but had a snack there one lunchtime. It was fresh and tasty (tuna, egg and mayo sandwich) and reasonably priced. The swimming pools are great, plenty of sunbeds and space to sunbathe. The resort is located mid-way between Playa del Ingles and Maspalomas (Melonaras), so around 20-30 minutes walk to either or a cheap taxi ride, around 4 to get to either resort. We found that Maspalomas was a lot nicer and there were many more nice places to eat out. We walked around Playa del Ingles for an hour and couldn't find anything decent! Just up the road from the Green Golf is a great little restaurant called Restaurante Rustico. It's run by Germans and the food was exceptional! Fresh fish dishes dominated the main courses but the starters were equally good, tomato and basil soup and a duck, beef and tuna carapaccio were our choices; it really was excellent and we would highly recommend it. Maybe worth booking a table as it's quite small, but seemed busy. Gran Canaria is a great place, friendly people, lovely weather, fine cuisine and good beaches, but plenty of activities for the family too. I would love to go back again some day!
Nice... thats it really!
JPmm2009, Derbys
basiclly... it was nice, like ive said thats it really! nothing special, but at the same time it wasnt a hole!. Rooms were beautiful, always cleaned promptly. swimming pools were lovely and warm. food totally aimed at the krauts and frogs of the world (sorry germans and french, wouldnt want to offend anyone now would i, just like they do us!!). staff very very very rude!! i wouldnt speak to a dead dog the way some of them spoke to the visitors. location is brilliant, very quiet and secluded, but pretty at the same time. I would return tho, but it was a nice break
Nice and clean, good location
Höllviken , Höllviken
Very recomendeble place. 5 minutes walk to driving range. Friendly and helpfull staff. Nice pool area, lots of space. Only negative part was the beds, the matresses was very hard. We Will come back!
1st time here but it won`t be the last

We stayed here in november, and we weren`t disappointed. All the staff were very helpful on our arrival giving us a map of the complex to find our way to our apartment.We were facing the golf course and although we didn`t get a lot of sun we enjoyed the view. The apartment was lovely, the cleaner had left some flowers in our room which i thought was a nice touch. The shop was a little bit more expensive than the supermarket at faro 2, but was handy for newspapers, bread and water. The whole complex looked clean and the gardens were kept neat. We didn`t eat in the restaurant ,so i can`t say what the food was like. The entertainment area looked a bit tired and could do with brightening up, but the drinks in the bar were reasonably priced. I will certainly be going there again. We are staying at Sandy golf in May which is just across the road and belongs to the same company, so hopefully the accommodation will be as good.
Very comfortable and friendly complex
DotW, Cheltenham, UK
We were at first put in an apartment that didn't have any sun of the patio or balcony. We requested a move and after a couple of days another apartment became free. This was next to the golf course and was so much better. The complex is kept very clean and tidy, with a spectacular swimming pool which was heated. The location was very good; with courtesy bus to and from the beach and to Playa de Ingles. There is a supermarket in Faro II which is 5 minutes walk away. The facilities in the kitchen are adequate but a microwave would be a great help. The reception staff staf were always friendly and helpful. All in all a very nice holiday.
Fint barnevennlig hotell
Bloggerguy, Oslo, Noruega
Hotellet har et flott langt baseng. I tillegg er det et eget barnebaseng med oppvarmet vann. Der er toetasjers leiligheter som ligger i sirkel rundt basengområdet. Soverom og bad er i andre etasje. Derfor passer ikke leilighetene for folk med stor bevegelseshemming. Svært mange av markterassene ligger i skyggen hele dagen. Vi valgte å ta med stoler og gå i solveggen for å varme oss( I februar). Gratis open internett finnes i restaurantområdet og rundt bassenget, men ikke på rommene. TV finnes med må betales separat. Kjøkkenet er brukbart utrustet. Det er to kokeplater, men ovn eller micro mangler. Renhold er bra.
nice resort and lovely grounds

Lovely and Quiet
alfie57123 , Dublín, Irlanda
The apartments are great and the pool is lovely and its really quiet which is exactly what we were looking for. Nice walks in the area and plenty of supermarkets nearby. The only complaints I would have is be careful what you leaving lying about as I think the maids threw a present I had bought out because it was wrapped up in tissue paper! Also the lounge beds are very uncomfortable but apart from that I would recommend this hotel.
Great clean, well kept and good location
jayjerry ,
Stayed 3 times and each time the complex has been in good condition and very good for self catering. First time we went it was bed & breakfast. Food not good. Also on site shop very expensive. But good supermarket 2 mins walk away so no issue.
An enjoyable stay
Goingonhols, Armagh
Just returned after a weeks stay here,and had an enjoyable stay after a minor problem. The first APT we were given was beside the road NO.92 weasked to get changed which they did,NO46 beside the pool.It was however the attitude of the lady in reception which was i didn:t like or appreciate,as i was a bother to her.Otherwise everything was very good ,with the cleaning staff,and all other staff Excellant.These are very nice apts and i would return to them again,but hopefully have not to Bother, that LADY again.

we have been coming here for the last thirteen years and will be back in april. the bungalows are basic but clean and tidy. staff are pleasent and if they is anything wrong they will do there best to sort it out. if it is not ask to speak to the manager who is a very nice gentleman he will soon have words with whoever he feels is responsible and it gets done. i can not say anything bad about these bungalows so have a good time..
Nydelig hotell
norwayjc, Oslo
Koselige leilighter og god mat. Bra service. Kjempestore svømmebasseng. Er veldig fornøyd med ferien.
Bra golfhotell
Leif5, Maspalomas, España
Greit anlegg for de fleste, men spessielt for golfspillere. Klubbhuset ligger like ved hotellet, så man slipper transport (ta til venstre på fortauet, så er innkjørselen ca.10 meter fra hotellet). Hotellets gjester gis også rabatt på greenfee. Banen vil passe de fleste. Lite vann men mange bunkre. Lange hull, men flatt og bredt. Hyggelig og hjelpsom proshop. Selve leilighetene er helt greie. Noe harde senger og TV'en ikke det store (14" uten fjernkontroll). Men rent og godt vedlikeholdt. Det er ikke aircondition, men takvifter i begge etasjer. Og det fungerte veldig greit. Det er en god del katter inne på området, med de holder borte alle andre kryp. Ta med myggspray, for det er en del knott/mygg om kveldene. Som du ikke merker, før utpå natten. Frokost bufeten er helt grei, og maten i restauranten er også bra. Bekjenningen på hotellet er hyggelige (unntak for resepsjon). WiFi tilgang i fellesområder. Leilighetene ligger enten mot sør eller nord, så bare halvparten har da sol. Et fantastisk bassen område, med kjempelangt basseng. Nok solsenger til alle. Det er en liten butikk under resepsjonen, som har det du trenger av dagligvarer. Området rundt hotellet er veldig rolig, med et stort shopping senter 10 minutt fra hotellet. Der det er en del restauranter og et større supermarked (har VG/Dagblad). Litt lenger opp fra senteret er det en fornøyelsespark med Bowling etc. Pga. dårlige tider, er det en del som har måttet stenge butikken. Bl.a. det lokale apoteket.
i love green golf and cant wait to return!
plymptongirl , plymouth devon
Ive been coming here for many years and have always loved it.Eduardo Sanchez in reception was so very kind to me in allowing a plant to be placed in memory of my late husband.Having read a review saying the pool wasnt cleaned maybe they got up late it was cleaned every day from 5.30 am! If you are self catering get in a taxi and go to hypo Dino its a huge hypo market quality of food is excellent. My favourite nights out are going to Garbos (book this with your rep) great night out for all the family.Another lovely place to eat is Cabinita Tavern about 8 euros in a taxi but well worth it, La Camelion is another good place an all you can eat buffet for 10 euros its in play ingles just just down the road from the old triangle pub The only problem we had was that the baggage handlers went on strike so we had no luggage for three days,this was no fault of the staff at Green Golf. I do think that the lady on reception could do with going on a customer care course she wasnt exactly rude but could have done with learning how to smile! I had a slight problem with our shower leaking reported it and within 10 mins the plumber was there fixing it he did a good job and cleaned up well could show the brits how to do things? I think that is very sad to see Faro 2 looking so sad and run down these days,the recession is hitting everywhere but the steak house just by the bird cage is great with lovely staff. I will be returning yet again in October and would like to say thank you to all the staff on reception and the hard working cleaners for making the holiday so enjoyable see you all next year nearly forgot do go to Puerto Morgan dont forget your cameras
martjp , west midlands
We stayed here in march, weather was very good, and the complex was clean and tidy. Do not recommend food in the restaurant, but bar snax ok and no happy hour for drinks of any kind at the bar.Entertainment wasn't for the brits. Best places to eat Faro 2. 5 mins walk, from the main gate turn left to the end of the road then right past the first aid post left at the island and your there lots of choice, or you can walk down to the light house 30 mins. Best places to visit are, Palmitos Park full day out,Crocodile Park half day, Pto de Morgan take the coast road full day. Sioux City bbq night 7pm till about 12 ish hahaha all drinks and food included, take a camera for the shows.Thanks to Thomas cook tour guide who was a young lady called ashleigh, all the best in your career.Thanx M J Pearson.

Propreté à tous les niveaux : appartement, piscine, restaurant, extérieur. L' ensemble du personnel est à l'écoute pour toute réclamation. Le petit déjeuner est très abondant malgré le repas du soir qui offre peu de variétés et qui est mal cuisiné de plus ATTENTION l'eau est un supplément; pour boire il faut payer!!! Il faut savoir que sur ces îles l'eau du robinet est de l'eau de mer dessalé
ganz passabel
Un viajero de Expedia,
Für eine Woche war es zufriedenstellend. Ansonsten typisch spanisch, Essen spartanisch, man lief nicht Gefahr sich zu Überfressen (war nicht so schmackhaft). Die Hotelanlage war ruhig, hatte zwar schon bessere Zeiten gesehen, war dafür aber sehr sauber. Der Golfplatz nebenan ist natürlich super, ansonsten ist in der Näheren Umgebung nicht viel los.
very relaxing better than most we have heard about
3121letsplay , taunton
i agree with a lot of the reviews that have been written but would like to add my own thoughts and experience.firstly i feel that having travelled around the island the green golf bungalows are ideally situated not too close and not too far,everything is a taxi ride away (which were excellent and cheap) the drivers never made you feel uncomfortable as they do in some countries no hagling about price as its all on the meter. the bungalows themselves are ok for a couple or maybe with one small child.beds as described before bit hard but ok,tv costs 13 euro a week but not a lot of english channels so i would not bother again (sky news ,eurosport and cnn) there is a hob but no cooker so if you like to cook on self catering you may need to compramise on meals(or do wot we did and eat out every night) all the restaurants are of a good standard and i did not have one bad meal. the staff i felt were not very friendly ,i would not have liked to complain as the receptionist was very abrupt and at times rude to some of the guests checking in (first impressions and all that )maybe she was just not happy in her job but she never smiled every time we spoke to her the pool is very clean and plenty of sunbeds etc not a lot in the way of entertainment but again that was not why we booked the area itself is great maspalomas beech and the surrounding area is lovely and the weather is just amazin i was stunned how warm it could be in november playa del ingles is great fun at night especially the yumbo centre some people were upset that they were subjected in their hotels to a lot of gay men kissing and cuddling all the time i do not have a problem with any sexuality but if need be GET A ROOM so if you havent been to gran canaria before be aware playa del ingles is the gay capital .that said get on a plane i loved gran canaria
There's something about the Cordial Green Golf
AddsR , Manchester, Reino Unido
This was our second holiday here. 2 weeks in October 2010. There are 2 massive pools which have a large number of kids playing in. Sunbathe in the quieter parts away from the pools. The Accomodation 1 sofabed downstairs with a small kitchenette, toaster, coffee machine and all the plates and cutlery you need. Also, a good fridge/freezer. There's a ceiling fan, and a tv. You have to hire the tv @ 13Euros a week. Who needs a tv, though? The Terrace is great which has a table and 3 chairs. Just right for sitting out on at night or perhaps having your breakfast overlooking the pool. Be careful and try to ask for a bungalow overlooking either the pool or golf course. There is a road which can be quite busy and approx 1/4 of the bungalows face the road. Upstairs you have twin beds which feel like they are made of rock. Seriously hard on your back. Not bad though, you get used to it. There is ample wardrobe space and a ceiling fan. In the hot hot hot weather i imagine it gets really stuffy. But in October, a ceiling fan is all you need. The bathroom is one of my bugbears with this place. You get a shower cubicle which leaks onto the floor. Its all tiled so easily mopped up, but they need to fit a decent shower door to stop it from happening. We've stayed in 2 different bungalows and used the free bungalow on the last day of our trip, but they all leak. Its a minor pain in the butt. Nothing more. There is a balcony too for your use but its not really worth it as the terrace is so good. Maids come all but 2 days and are efficient. The Restaurant and Bars Well, this is the downfall of this place. The food is edible and you won't get ill. But you also won't get nice food. Its all pretty bland stuff. Cheap enough though. The real problem with the CGG is the staff. They really just can't be bothered. Was it a problem? Nope. The staff in Meloneras are much more friendly and they got our business instead. The Location The location isn't ideal. Its quiet and they run buses for you to the beach. The walk is actually quite pleasant and only takes 1/2 hr along the storm drain banks. Its a nice walk and it brings you out down by the nature reserve, La Charca. Taxis are approx 3-4 euros each way if you want to pay. Taxis are simple to pick up, there's loads of them. They all know where the hotel is and where the shops/restaurants are. The Area Maspalomas is a bit of a nothing place. There really isn't a lot to do. Meloneras, to the right of the lighthouse as you look at it, is great. Lots of shops and restaurants. If you want to find a really nice restaurant and build up an appetite, walk from the hotel to the lighthouse and keep going along the front when you get there. Walk for 20 or so minutes further and you will come to playa de meloneras. This is lovely and quiet and there is a restaurant there called Hemmingways. It is lovely. Marcus the Maitre'd is fantastic and friendly. The food is great and not that expensive. It overlooks the front and you can eat your meal whilst the sun goes down. Tours/Activities We would highly recommend taking the Jeep Safari tour from Holiday World. A whole day driving around in an open top jeep, going to places you would never see. Up into the mountains, swimming in the lake, camel riding, visiting some lovely towns. Well worth EUR49. All in all, a lovely place. Please go there.
Perfect for relaxing and chilling at pool

Spent two weeks here with my husband and would definitely go back. Bungalows are lovely with beautiful flowers everywhere. Staff were very friendly,only ate lunch here twice as we were s/c and it was good. There is a really good supermarket at the nearby shopping centre with great deli if you are into your cheeses and chorizo! The beach is a lovely half hour walk away or if its too hot to walk the bus is free. Taxis are easily got outside complex and cheap too. There were alot of cats around but we found if you dont feed them they dont hang around! The pool was fab but made us very lazy as we couldnt drag ourselves away from it! Only one complaint-sunbeds are not comfortable and cannot be adjusted to sit up. Will certainly be revisiting Green Golf .
Perfect if you're looking for a quiet week in the sun.
jackandgus , london
Stayed here in may for a last minute week with My Mum. The stay ended up being 13 days thanks to an Icelandic volcano. The bungalows were very nice and exceeded my expectations. The swimming pools are lovely as are the grounds. The only draw back is the location. There are a few restaurants and bars within walking distance but realistically you have to get taxis for change of scenery or decent night out. The entertainment in the hotel isn't that good. After nearly a fortnight at the apartments, we got a bit bored, a week is enough. If you're looking for a quiet realxing place to wind down in the sun for a week, these apartments are perfect. Definitely not suitable for young singles.
Preis-Leistung vollkommen o.k.
Un viajero de weg.de,
Insgesamt war der Urlaub so wie vorgestellt. Das Wetter war einmalig und die Anlage sehr schön anzusehen. Hinter die Tapete in den Bungalows sollte man lieber nicht gucken. ;) Insgesamt vom Preis-Leistungsverhältnis vollkommen in Ordnung.
Great Apartments!
SunShine1287 , SunShine1287
Accommodation was excellent; we had an apartment facing the smaller pool. Cleaned daily (apart from Thursday, cleaners day off) and sheets/towels changed regularly. Pool area really lovely, however you have to get up very early to get a sun lounger so we put two on our patio area (like many people), and so didnt have a problem. We used the shuttle bus offered free from the hotel but found it didnt run that regularly and not in the evenings (last bus to Playa Del Ingles & Maspalomas 5.00pm ish). Taxi from the airport to the accommodation is around 40euros and journey lasts about 30minutes. Top tip Apartments do not include washing up liquid or cloth so either bring your own or buy for 1.50 euro at the supermarket. Faro 1 Shopping Centre has a great selection of bars, restaurants and up-market shops all with fantastic views looking over the bay. A taxi costs approximately 3.50 euros. Faro 2 Shopping Centre has a few restaurants/bars, shops and a supermarket. Many places have closed and I guess it down to the recession. Approximately a 10mintues walk from Cordial Green Golf Places to Visit - Maspalomas is a lovely place to visit and great restaurants. If you are going to climb a sand dune we would recommend that you do it either early morning, or evening as the sand gets extremely hot! Playa Del Ingles was also a nice place to visit. Lots of restaurants, bars and cafes along the sea front with stunning views. Overall we loved the accommodation but the location was a bit isolated. We would have preferred to move our accommodation to the beach at maspalomas however if you did this you end up paying for it. So its a lovely place to stay and we had a great holiday but be prepared to budget for taxis.

Dans l'ensemble l'hotel et bugalows sont bien mais: un peu loin de la plage heureusement qu'ils mettent à disposition un bus qui fait la navette! Trés propre la chambre faite tout les jours serviettes et draps changés. Cadre agréable surtout côté golf calme et reposant. 2 trés grandes piscine propre question propreté rien à dire ! Repas buffet les salades variées pour le reste Bof !!! petit déjeuner copieux.
Nette Anlage, aber keine 4 Sterne! 2 laut Anlage!
Un viajero de Expedia ,
Nette Anlage, aber bitte keine 4 Sterne, dennoch sehr schön und sauber. 10 Tage sind fast zu viel... -ohne Frühstück buchen -ein Haus etwas weiter vom Pool entfernt zu nehmen -Tv & Co kosten extra!
Lovely relaxing holiday
JaneM29 ,
Just back from the Cordial Green Golf Apartments after staying there for a week. What can I say, the apartments are a good size, very clean, living area and kitchen downstairs with the bedroom and bathroom upstairs. The maid came in every morning usually just after 9 always with a smile on her face ( day off Thursday ) we were in apartment 267 behind the stage area and pool tables.The pools were cleaned every morning and never overcrowded. My only gripe there was the sunbeds not enough of them and all were taken early morning with towels, I did often notice some of the bed were never used until late afternoon, prob with people going to the beach first thing then returning to use the bed they had reserved. Again there was a notice up stating you were not allowed in the pool after 9pm but as usual kids ( not brits as there were very few of us there) still jumping in at 11pm. The complex was NEVER noisy a night, bar closed at 11.45pm and the lights outside bar switched off at 11pm. Cannot comment on the entertainment or lack of it. The supermarket on site we found expensive and the woman on the till could have done with being taught some manners. The Faro 2 shopping centre was about a 10 min walk away, plenty of places to eat there, a supermarket and a handful of shops.The credit crunch last year has forced alot of the shops to close. There is also holiday world which is about another 5 min walk from the Faro2 which has a mini carnival, tenpin bowling and a bar. Maspolamos beach is really nice, 7 euros for 2 beds and a brolly, plenty of shops and places to eat there, where we ended up going to most nights. The only trip we did through Thomas Cook was to Mogan Market a lovely harbour town, where you could also do a sub trip and we got a ferry back round into Porto Cristo. Another place to visit is Palmintos Park free flight bird shows, dolphin show, parrott show etc.. Over all I would go back to the Green Golf but for no longer than a week and I am glad we didnt have our kids with us as they would have been really bored. If you fancy a game of golf be prepared to pay about £70 for a game and thats with a 20% discount for being a neighbour so needless to say my husband turned that one down. ( SHAME)
Loved the bungalow but found Masapalomas very isolated with not many shops within walking distance
Vicky1810 , Stockport, Reino Unido
What a lovely accomendation this was. We were very impressed with our bungalow - we stayed in 141 looking over the golf course which was great, nice and quiet as well. The bungalows are very modern and well kepted and cleaned daily, with new towels every other day. Found all the staff friendly enough, the only issue i felt i had was when I went to the bar, and a german or spainsh person came after me they would be served first. We also found that the english population here was very low. They offer a min disco every week night which my 2 yr old little girl really enjoyed, they do a put evening shows on but this were abit naff, but it did get u out off ur bungalow. We were quite shocked how far away everything was, and if u wanted to walk to the beach it was a good 30-40 mins walk but u can also get a free bus, but they are only every 1hr till about 1ish. Faro 2 is only a 10 minute walk away, and there is a few nice restaurants there mine bring Borrecmer - think that it right, they give the children a portable DVD player whilst u are waiting for ur food. The swimming pool area was fanastic, but do take care with young children and teenagers running around as the floor is dreadful when u have wet feet, i did actually witness one young girl who jumped out the pool to run after a ball, slip and bang her head and lower back quite nasty on the floor. We eat at the the all u can buffet for 12.50 euros and it was total waste of money, the only good thing was that children eat free, but the food was dry and very tasteless. The complex is in the middle of nowhere, but u can get a taxi to Playa del Igles for about 3 euros. When talking to locals apparently Masapalomas has been hit very hard with the credit cruch with very few shops open especially in gran canaria. All in all the bungalows were fanastic, but the area was very isolated from anywhere else.
Great value, good accommodation and excellent staff
Planegirl78 , London, England
We stayed here for a week in May and had a fantastic time. About 45 minutes from the airport the bungalow's are situated next to a golf course. The accommodation is over two storey's, was very clean and has well kept individual patio areas that have chairs and a table. Downstairs there is a small kitchen with kettle (goes on hob), toaster, pans and fridge. The bathroom is upstairs with shower, we found the shower temperature was constantly fluctuating whatever time it was used and the shower tray was too shallow so water went all over the floor. There are step narrow marble stairs up to the bathroom and bedroom so would not recommend for small children or people with mobility difficulties. The pool was just a few feet away from our bungalow, it was cleaned early every morning and although the water was very cold each day we made good use of it.... I believe it's heated in the winter months to March. We didn't use the restaurant but did use the bar for refreshments, this was open until 11.45pm every night. There are computers here with internet access. There are a number of restaurants and shops at Faro 2 a 5-10 minute walk from Cordial Golf across the park. You can hire push bikes from here for about 8 euro's per day. We walked a few nights along the dry canal to Meloneras, about a 30 minute walk or approx 4 euro's in a taxi where there are a number of very nice restaurants, you will pay more here but the atmosphere is better than Faro 2. Meloneras is where you will find the Faro lighthouse, dunes and beach. We cycled to Playa del Ingles (about 5 euros in a taxi) and went to the shopping centre and the Hard Rock Cafe. Playa del Ingles is where the nightlife is!! The hotel will call taxi's for you and they can arrange some day trips, nothing was too much trouble for the staff on reception. There is a small supermarket on site but it is very over priced, there is a larger supermarket at Faro 2 which was much better value.

Gute Atmosphäre. Anlage ist als Urlaubsziel zu empfehlen. Aber gut zusätzlich ein Auto zu mieten für die Erreichbarkeit und Einkaufmöglichkeiten.
Perfect for relaxing Perfect location to get near the fun
Carmel73 , Dublin
Stayed here for one week :-( arrived late at nite and it was easy to check in and find our appartment. The appartments are clean and bright and the decor is quite nice felt very at home. The complex is very pretty and very well kept. Although the area is quite you can catch a taxi out side to take you to the madness for around 4. I would definitely stay here again.
Great value for money
Teresa26, Exeter, Reino Unido
We recently spent 7 days at the Green Golf in Maspalomas. The bungalows have two floors; downstair there is an open plan kitchen (two hobs, sink, kettle, fridge, toaster, pans, plates etc) and living room (TV you can hire for 13euro for the week or 2.5euro a day). There is no iron or hairdryer provided but you can hire these from a company at receiption. The rooms are cleaned daily and we were happy with the service. There are two large swimming pools avalable that are slightly heated and a patio for sunbathers. There was entertainment available each night at the Restaurant (drag show, bingo, Karaoke and a fashion show etc). The staff were all pleasant but at times not so helpful, though if you had any questions the reps were always available. Overall i would definately recommend this hotel as it is great value for money and was much better then i had thought it would be after reading other reviews on trip advisor. The resort is beautiful and the swimming pools are big enough that they never seem crowded.
great hotel for a cheap price
andytheplaya , london
ROOMS- great little villas, very clean and up to date POOLS- 2 massive pools, do remember 1 of the pools on couple of days have loads of flys in though and i mean thousands of them... ENTERTAINMENT-the worst for younger couples LOCATION- its too far away from anywhere, but ideal for just a chill out holiday where you wont be leaving hotel very often. NIGHTLIFE- about 4 euro taxi away from playa del ingles, we went in first week of june so it was so quiet, too much of a gay scene for my likeing. FOOD go for evening meals in melnoras which is about 4 euro taxi away and there is loads of really good restaurants there. dont pay 8 euros or what it was for breakfast at the hotel its the worst , a planes breakfast is 10 times better LEISURE- dont go to palamitos park its waste of money, Aqualand was ok, we took a day trip to loro parque in tenerife and it was so good, did end up costing me about £150 for the two of us but honestly it was the highlight of our holiday. overal i did have an ok holiday but would not recomend this hotel for younger couples, its too far out and ended up paying loads on taxis everyday, dont go early june either its dead, went puerto rico for the day seemed so much better so i advise younger people to go there.go to this hotel if u just want a relaxing time with nice rooms and great pools.

We enjoyed our stay here. All the apartments are very attractive. We overlooked the 18th hole of the golf course. Plus points:- nice location, very quiet, bus route nearby, 10 mins walk to Faro 2 commercial centre which has supermarket and numerous restaurants, everywhere was spotlessly clean, small supermarket on site (good for bread, milk, etc), superb outdoor swimming pools (one heated over winter months), friendly staff, apartment was generally well-equipped and comfortable, good fridge. Minus points:- although there is a balcony it is not large enough to sit there, the bedroom was too small (twin beds were side by side but one had to be pushed against wall), beds were very firm (my wife says they were hard!), no electric kettle (kettle on hob took 10 mins to boil), no microwave, no oven (just hob), TV cost 2.5 euros per day, had to pay to get key for safe deposit box, buffet restaurant mediocre. Tips:- Lock doors and downstairs windows at night and when going out - there were two break-ins while we were there. Take valuables out with you, or lock in safe. Good restaurants - Broncemar2 and Cho Juanillo at Faro2. Take the #18 bus ( 0805 or 1105) up to the mountains for an unforgetable experience!
lovely place would stay again!

i went to the cordial green golf in march and it was lovely the aparrtments were lovely as good as the pictures even nicer. When we checked in at reception they werent that helpful. Most nights there was a show on in the pool bar or a mini disco for the kids. There was also a buffet in the pool bar for dinner and was very resonable in price and children were free! A taxi to the beach in maspalomas cost 3 euros and a taxi to playa del ingles cost around the same. The pool was gorgeous and i couldnt fault anything all in all a brilliant holiday
Lovely hotel and excellent value
Absh0t , Fareham
Just got back from a very enjoyable week at the Cordial Green Golf hotel. There are 250 two storey bungalows built around two superb swimming pools and bordering Maspolamas Golf course. Of these I would say 200 have a very good location either looking over the swimming pools, the golf course or garden area. The other 50 look over the road and are north facing so it is worth requesting a bungalow with a view of the pools or the golf course. The bungalows are clean and furnished to a good standard (though the art on the wall was naff!). The cleaners came in most days of our 7 day stay and did a good job. When we were around during the day we were very aware of their loud and constant banter in Spanish around the complex. You need to take beach/pool towels. You pay extra for the use of the safe and the TV. The service on the desk when we arrived was good and the same member of staff was helpful at other times. His colleague was not so helpful or friendly which was a shame. We went self catering, we ate two evening meals at the hotel restaurant, 12.50 euros, for an all you can eat buffet, we enjoyed the food and felt that it was good value. There are many restaurants in the area. Faro 2 is a shopping and restaurant complex just a ten minute walk away. It has a large supermarket which is a bit cheaper than the supermarket on the site of the hotel but obviously not as convenient. Breakfasts at the hotel were 7.50 euros, the food looked good but we didnt try it. We would go back the Green Golf in the future and opt for the half board option if we could get a good deal. The hotel is a free 10 minute bus ride to the beach, the famous sand dunes are there and the lighthouse which is surrounded by shops and restaurants. Buses are comfy and more like coaches. Taxis are very cheap and plentiful. Port Mogan is a lovely day out, we went by bus, enjoyed the narrow venetian-style streets, beach and restaurants. From Port Mogan we took a boat to Porto Rico and then a bus on to Maspolamas. You can see a lot in the immediate area by bus, car hire locally is expensive, if you want to see a lot of the island its more economical booking a car on the internet from the UK and collecting it from the airport. On check out day you have to be out of your room at 12 noon. You have the option if you have a late flight of keeping the room for another 25 euros or putting your suitcase in a locker for free. We booked through Travel Republic and would definitely go again.

It is true
Reallyhappy070 , uk
Got back on Saturday after 5 days with my grown up daughter. Very good place, rooms excellent and pool perfect. Cleaners are first class and whole complex is very clean. All in all would rate excellent with 2 exceptions: 4 visits to reception, 1 to check in: great, 2 to ask for nearest petrol station: great, 3 to ask if we could keep room until 15.00, poor (miserable women who said it would be 25 euros and 'forgot' to mention courtesy room), 4 in evening after 3 to ask about room again when she had gone when all was great again. Also bar area servers were very average. I would certainly go back there again but had forgotten how rude/jaded some Spanish people have become. We spent many years in the Greek Islands where they all are happy to have you there.

After having read much about the poor state of accomodation in Gran Canaria and the Canaries in general, I was a little apprehensive about my recent holiday there. I need not have been. The staff were pleasant on arrival and helpful throughout my stay. Cordial Green Golf is a modern, self contained complex set midway between the Faro centre and the Maspalomas beach. It has the usual facilities, bar, on site shop selling bread/groceries. The complex has two large and very clean pool and the whole area was well tended. Buses are available into Playa Del Ingles and Maspalomas beach. The accomodation itself consists of two story maisonettes. Living room/kitchen downstairs and bedroom and bathroom upstairs. They are well decorated and clean throughout. The maisonette I was allocated did not have air conditioning but had ceiling fans. Although the Canaries is not my usual holiday destination, I was so impressed with the hotel that I have booked to go there again in February.

Just back from a week in the green golf, very well maintained and clean bungalows. The pool was fabulous never too crowded. Free bus down to the dunes but the walk is very nice and takes about 25 minutes. Restaurants were very reasonable but if you go down towards the lighthouse there is an Italian restaurant on the strip that is very good but expensive for what you get, further down the road there is a pizzeria which is very good value with nice waiters and food and wine. Would definitely go back to the Green golf as it was a very relaxing holiday.
Clean And Welcoming
b0c0, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK
Reception and cleaning staff were very pleasant and check-in was quick and hassle free. The accommodation was clean and comfortable and the complex was generally well maintained and inviting. The self catering supplies are quite rudimentary in the apartments so if you plan to make anything more than snacks while you are there you would be better off going somewhere else. There are only 2 electric rings for cooking and no oven or microwave would would have been nice but then again some people don't want to bother with too much cooking while on holiday. The beds were quite comfortable and the room was cleaned most days. There was just myself and wife on this holiday and we are in our fifties. The complex suited us fine but there is not much going on so I don't think there would be too much to do for children although the dunes at Maspalomas are fantastic and if you like beach holidays, you couldn't get better. There is the Faro shopping centre not far away which has a limited amount of bars, shops and reataurants and they had a car boot sale on at the weekend. Unlike other reviewers, we found the minimarket on site to be quite reasonable for both choice and prices. (Fresh bread delivered every morning for Breakfast!). If you want to travel to Playa Del Ingles which is a lot more lively, there is a free bus service from the complex (also to the dunes) but is rather limited. However you can jump in one of the frequent taxis and get to Playa Del Ingles for less than 4. All in all , I would recommend the green golf and we had a pleasant, relaxing time. Weather in Jan was 25-28 degrees C.

My partner had stayed here before but it was my first time. The bungalows around the pool are lovely, no busy roads, no noise after dark, very laid back and restful. The bungalows are on 2 levels, lounge and kitchen down stairs, bedroom and bathroom up. Very good value. The weather was amazing all week for January. Free bus to the beach and back several times a day. One pool is heated the other not. Have to say the place was only half full so may be busy and noisier in easter / summer. Very clean rooms, excellent maids. Only downsides, good walk into Faro or taxi for 3 euro 50, hotel staff not terribly interested in helping guests with info, food on site not great, on site mini market expensive...but all in all accomm great
very good,but with a few minor,but major exceptions

It was just over a year since my last stay in the Green Golf .I decided to ring in 2010 there .I arrived on Dec.31.The complex was not crowded by any means..My apartment was number 9 (as far as I remember).All was clean and tidy as before.One major problem was that the upstairs balcony door had a broken lock,and I could see that it had been broken for some time.Anyone could have crossed over from either side and come in had I been out..This didnt bother me too much as I kept all my valueables in the safe. The safe did not have any instructions on how to operate the codes,which meant I had to go to reception to get verbal instructions.A printed paper on the wardrobe would have been more practical..It was at night time that "my visitors" arrived,cockroach central..They were all over the place,there was bug spray provided that did kill them,but every night there was a fresh batch of them calling to say Hi..I cant blame the complex for them,but if there had been a stopper on the kitchen sink if may have kept a few of them out..The complex itself was lovely and bright and clean.The staff were very friendly.In the nearby Faro 2 shopping centre I came across a restaurant that I had passed out many times before "El Nublo".The food was superb and the presentation just added to it,really good.I enjoyed my stay apart from the gremlins..
sehr schöne Anlage
Un viajero de Expedia ,
Sehr schöne Anlage. Hoher Erholungswert. Sauber und gepflegt. Schöner Pool. Außer Tischtennnisplatte keine Sportmöglochkeiten. Bischen albern/ärgerlich ist die Tatsache, dass man für Sat-TV eine extra Gebühr zahlen muß. Wir hatten ohne Verpflegung gebucht. Der Eindruck des angebotetenes Buffets: mäßig. Nicht zu empfehlen für Leute die Wert auf gutes, abwechselungsreiches Essen legen. Wenn man nicht nur am Strand liegen will, ist Mietwagen sehr zu empfehlen. Die Einkaufszentren für frische Lebensmittel in Maspalomas oder der Minimarkt an der Hotelanlage sind deutlich(Touripreise !!!) höher als z.B in Las Palmas. Für Selbstverpfleger: unbedingt Mietwagen und woanders einkaufen. siehe Fazit

Great holiday
corn09 , England
Myself and my husband travelled back last week from the Green Golf Bungalows, with Ryanair. The flight was definitely value for money and did what it said on the tin. The bungalows have been refurbished since our last visit and they were excellent. Kitchen facilities while basic had everything we needed, beds comfortable and the lounge offered somewhere to sit and chill out on return from the beach! The only downside to our trip was a meal that we had at the El Faro Grill restaurant in Melonares, having eaten at these restaurants many times they have always proved to be good quality but this one let them down, the chicken that we both ordered was VERY undercooked and mine was RAW in places which unfortunately we did not notice till we had eaten some of the meal which resulted in my husband suffering from food poisoning for 5 days. Not a great end to the holiday!! Please be ware of this restaurant, when we complained they suddenly couldnt speak any English and were not bothered!! Apart from this an excellent holiday which we would thoroughly recommend and we can't wait to return.
Great apartments
cutedarcy , ireland
Stayed in these apartments for 1 week in August 2009. Could not fault them. Spotless clean, we saw the maids spend nearly 2 hours cleaning the apartment after the guests had checked out.They cleaned our apartments every second day and replaced towels. Kitchen equipment was fine, sufficent to get you through breakfast and lunch. We had an apartment facing the golf course which was quite and relaxing. Two huge pools are great bonus, reception staff and maids pleasant. Didn't try the buffet so can't comment. Didn't use the free buses either but there was quite a large queue for them in the mornings. Taxi into Pdi was 4. Faro 2 is a 10 minute walk away, many of the shops are closed but there are a few restarants and bars. Highly recommend the "Michelangelo" italian restaurant, very tasty food, good value and service. Cho Juanillo was good too. Melonaras is really lovely stroll along the coast to the lighthouse. My sister-in-law lives in Gran Canaria and of all the apartments she was in, she said the Green Golf were the nicest and cleanest she had seen. Overall, would highly recommend these apartments.
Fantastic hol

Just got back today from Cordial green golf, with my boyfriend. Our apartment was situated opposite the golf course, although we did ask for Pool view, and were orignally given one according to our check in thing, but oh well. We found we were woken by loud lawn mowers on the course and other vechiles and stupid o clock which was annoying, and one night at 1am there was a party of some sort and we could hear word for word people talking and music through microphones so loudly it woke us, and the whole block up!! Maid service was brill they did a fab job, although one morning we were awoken by a maid banging about in kitchen even though we had do not disturb sign showing! Other than that we thought the 'bungalows' were fab! Perfect size, beds not too uncomfortable, and we didn't get too hot without air contiioning because of the ceiling fans which worked great for us. The bathroom was good for us too, shower was great and we experienced no problems with it. Kitchen was basially equipped but fine for us we just cooked pasta and eggs for lunch and ate out in the evenings The 2 pools were fantasic! Although in the first week it was hard for us to get 2 loungers as people seemed to have them on their patio and then saved ones by the pool with their towels! We had noproblem in the second week though. The pool seemed very cold but was great for jumping in when u got too hot sunbathing! We never dined at hotel and had a drink each on one occasion costing 8E, rip off! Minimarket handy for magazines and bits and bobs but SOOOOO opeverpriced, we did our shopping in Faro bulavard by lighthouse, which is gorgeous! Loads of great shops and restaurants! One last thing..... be wary of dolphin trip you can bookin reception at Peurto Rico.... Cost us 48E, then we had to get bus there on our own accord. The boat trip made us and the majority of the boat EXTREMELY SICK, not nice, was 2 and a half hours of hell, and although the guy kept saying "Dolphins in 4 minutes" we saw NOTHING! They gave us free tickets but there was no way we were going back after being sick and we hadn't the time as we were going home. We kept flagging down buses for the way back, and none stopped, so we had to pay 20E for taxi! :( Maybe we just picked a bad day! Our transfer home was at 12am and you have to check out at 12pm which is rubbish, the did give us another room but at a cost of 25E. OVer all i'd give an 8/10 and would more than likley go back. Emily and Danny
very nice accomodation quiet but not helpful if you have a late flight
DevonRiddler , devon
exactly like the brochure picture great pools clean accomodation friendly staff. A short walk from resonable bars and a good holiday park complex. taxis good value for money. No good if you like a hectic night life the bar in the complex closes 11.45 pm ish. Gone are the dys of cheaper meals you have to bargain to get a good deal. dont go on the sioux city trip rubbish show and the rest of the time they just try to get money out of you.The jeep safari is brilliant great day loved by us all. My major gripe is not being able to keep your room on when you have a late flight,our accomodation was empty we only wanted it until 6pm,this would put me off staying here again. maspolamas lighthouse and area is beautiful we spent a lot of time there. on our arrival meeting with rep they tried to push acomplex called anfi, this annoyed us. a great holiday all in all.
Hermoso y cómodo
lucky89 , Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain
En conjunto son unos duplex bien cuidados, de bonito diseño, con unos jardines preciosos y unas piscinas de ensueño. La comida es buena y variada, tanto en el desayuno como en la cena y el amuerzo. Posee ventiladores de techo en lugar de aire acondicionado. La televisión es de pago y hay que pagar una pequeña fianza que te devuelven al final. Te permiten bañarte en las piscinas incluso de noche, siempre que no se haga ruido. Muy cerca del centro comercial "Faro 2" y el parque de atracciones "Holiday World". Pone a disposición de los clientes un autobús gratuito para ir a la playa y se encuentra al lado de un campo de golf. Los recepcionistas son amables en sus explicaciones. Se trata de un establecimiento con mucha calidad.
Ideal zum Ausspannen, sehr ruhige Lage und doch mit Taxi schnell im Nachtleben!!!
Shumana, Baden
Sehr erholsame Lage, direkt neben Golfplatz und den bekannten Sanddünnen. Die Bungalows haben 2 Etagen: unten Wohnzimmer und Kochnische mit Esstisch und oben Schlafzimmer mit Bad, dazu hat es noch einen Sitzplatz und Rasen. Nach Playa del Ingles ca.10 Min. mit Taxi. Nach Maspalomas Faro (Strand) ca. 15 min. mit Bus. In Maspalomas selbst hat es noch einen Lunapark, grosses Einkaufszenter und einen Aquapark. Maspalomas selbst hat praktisch kein Nachtleben, daher ideal zum Ausspannen und Faulenzen. Es hat dennoch genügend Tagestrips zu machen: Kamelsafari, Westernstadt besichtigen, Palmitos-Park, Kart fahren, Tagesausflüge mit Mietauto (sehr eindrücklich Orte) usw. Wir sind sehr gerne in den Ferien dort und empfehlen es sehr gerne weiter.
Better Than Expected
HolidayMaker411, Bangor, NI
We booked these bungalows as a cheap getaway for the summer break. What we got was a brilliant bungalow with a pool side view, great service (they answered all our queries etc) and a good location (5 mins from Faro 2 centre and taxi into Maspalomas/ Playa del Ingles only was around 3 Euro) this covered all of our eating needs. Went for breakfast buffet good selection of foods to fit all tastes. Maids were in every day so the bungalows were spotless. Bungalows also recently updated so are modern and stylish. Never too far from the beach and all in all we had a great holiday! RECOMMENDED! Almost forgot the swimming pool is the best I've ever been to on holiday! Fantastic hidden gem.
Great quiet setting
thomgall, UK
Away from the noise of Playa del Ingles this is the ideal setting for a family holiday. There were a lot of young kids and babies when we were there so there can be a lot of screaming going on so avoid here if kids irritate you. The apartments appear popular with the Spanish and they can be either one or two bedroom. There are only about 12 two bedroom and it is worthwhile paying extra for them. All of the bungalows are on two levels so not ideal for the disabled traveller as we found out however they have the Sandy Golf right across the road. To tell you the truth Gran Canaria in general is not good for the disabled traveller at all particularly in Maspalomas. The kerbs are so high that we had to lift our friend out of the wheelchair in order to get the chair on the road. There are three swimming pools here, immaculately clean and seemed to be not many people in them when we arrived. We never had the buffet breakfast but we enjoyed the buffet dinner about twice, great variety but not much for vegetarian, and costs about 12 euros. Thought the staff were really friendly and we even managed to get a bungalow for a few hours when our flight left at night. I would be more than happy to stay there again. The flowers all around the buildings and on your bungalow look glorious during the Summer. A trip into Playa del Ingles will cost you about 4 euros from here, just ask at reception and they will call you one.
Perfect to rest and get some sleep
MK_Eng, Milton keynes
Me and my partner stayed here last year and its perfect for somewhere to rest your head comfortably. The apartments are clean and a good size for 2 people if 3 where staying might be a bit cramped. While staying there we never tried the food but from what we heard it wasnt the best but there is plenty of options to eat out near by. The staff where ok one receptionist was really helpful the other didnt want to know if you had any problems. The rooms where cleaned every other day. Both pools where excellent a nice play to go at the end of the day to cool down. The location has positives and negatives. Negatives being that the walk to the beach can be quite exhausting if you are doing it in the middle of summer as gets very hot and no shade on the way. If you prefer not to walk a taxi is about 4 euros to the beach and the hotel supplies a free bus to the beach which runs a couple of times a day. With it not being situated on the beach means its only a 5 min walk to the shopping centre. I have a few videos of our stay on youtube here are the links if you want to see and please leave comments on what you think. :D if you want any further info feel free to message me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woOfDoYl5s8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29kiN5yyqXY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuYWZXgWGk0
Toller Urlaub
SchmidtLeipzig, Leipzig
Die Anlage ist super in Schuss. Die Bungalows sind prima renoviert und strahlten Gemütlichkeit aus. Für die 2-Schlüssel Landeskategorie haben wir die Anlage als sehr angenehm empfunden. Die Hotelrezeption ist sehr korrekt, aber leider nicht mehr. Bei einer Hotelauslastung im April von ca. 40-50% war es Erholung pur. Wer Lust auf Animation hatte, konnte abends die Veranstaltungen besuchen. Die Mitarbeiter im Servicebereich sind freundlich und gehen auf die Wünsche der Urlauber ein. Die Küche hat sich während unseres 1-Wochenaufenthaltes in der Vielfalt der Angebote große Mühe gegeben, nur geschmacklich hätte es würziger und die warmen Gerichte heißer sein können. Der Reinigungsservice war o.k. Sollte wir wieder auf Gran Canaria Urlaub machen, würden wird dieses Hotel wieder wählen!
tortugacanaria, canarias
Es un complejo estupendo. yo fui con mi familia, mi marido, un bebé un niño y yo. Relax total. El bungalow muy cuidado, limpio. el personal muy agradable, sin ningún problema. Creo que el secreto de la tranquilidad se basa en una de las normas " No se permiten visitas", puede ser inconveniente o ventaja, pero la verdad es que se está muy tranquilo. Piscinas estupendas, no hay falta de hamacas. El único pero que puedo poner es que renovaran un poco el mobiliario del parque infantil de resto PERFECTO. Espero repetir. Marta (GRAN CANARIA)
Ideal for a quiet break
PAULH_IRL, Galway
Cordial Green Golf is a quiet, very clean, and comfortable self catering resort. Also comparatively reasonable costwise. Overall it is not surprising to find that it is (at time of writing) listed as #1 in Maspalomas. There is a very big swimming pool, two of them in fact. If you like a proper swim, this is most definitely the place. Also this means there is adequate space and sunbeds for all. Accomodation is comfortable and kept well clean. Beds not particularly comfortable however as other reviewers have said. In terms of location, the resort is about 5 minutes walk away from Faro 2, with shops and restaurants. It is a 4 euro taxi ride up to the Kasbah or Irish centres in Playa del Ingles. The best way to get to the beach is to walk down by the aquduct or canal (just follow the crowd). Alternatively, a shuttle bus is provided. I don't know how often that goes though as we did not use it. It is only 20-25 minutes of a stroll to the beach though. Want some proper exercise? Go to the beach and spend 15 walking up and down the dunes! Most of the restaurants at Faro 2 are of the "international" variety with dozens of variations of the same boring tasteless meals. If you want something a little more adventurous (yet relatively inexpensive), try the Rustica restaurant on the way to the beach. Highly recommended. Some good pubs there, with international sports channels and v.good selection of drinks. Pity to see some of them so empty though, hoping that's the time of year and not the state of the economy. Only other recommendation I'll make is this ... if you fancy an ice cream on the walk to the beach, avoid the Carte D'Or stand at the "Canale Grande" restaurant by the canal. Awful icecream, full of artificial flavours, served with an attitude that was worse, if such a thing were possible. Wait until you get closer to the beach, there is better available there. Hope that helps...
Gerne wieder
flowerfriendHannover, Hannover
War positiv überrascht von der Anlage. Keine störende Clubtänze und doch leichte Animation. Poole war groß, Liegen haben wir auch immer bekommen. Für Selbstversorger zu empfehlen. Hatten einen Bungalow am Ende der Anlage, sehr angenehm und ruhig.Rezeption ist mit sehr freundlichem Personal besetzt. Ein etwas größerer Spielplatz wäre gut, der vorhandene ist nur für ganz kleine Kinder.
TheCadder2, Glasgow
Always find the reviews on trip adviser very helpful so thought I would contribute. Myself and partner spent a week in these apartments and were very impressed, the cleanliness was first class and the maid service was excellent as well ( get a life the woman who had to wash her own plates ) we were in room 222 and faced out onto the golf course, probably the best side of the complex, so relaxing and amusing depending on who was playing golf. The beds are a bit uncomfortable but that is the only negative about the whole place, the pools are first class and the amount of beds by the pool was great, have never been a place where there was so many, while we were there it was mostly german and dutch which suits me fine as they always seem to get high standard accomodation, in fact would rather be with them than some of the Brits I have met over the years, you know the type that think the hotels were built especially for them. Maspalomas itself was a bit dull and quiet, went most nights to PDI, if you eat at only one restaurant then make sure it is El Guacho, food, service and value were great, staff were lovely and really know how to look after their customers, especially the uncle fester lookalike. Prices in the shops are so very expensive, basic food prices in the supermarket at faro2 were scandalous, it might sound a bit tight fisted but take as much basics with you as you can, tea, coffee, cereal etc. In fact the prices are the only thing that would stop me going back to Gran Canaria, i love it. Do yourself a favour and book here, you will not regret it .
Nice choice for quiet, calm vacation
Dx-men, Saint-Petersburg
Hello every one! We have stayed in this hotel for 2 weeks since 22th Oct 2008. The first thing which we appreciated at its true value was swimming pool. Huge size, nice design. Unfortunately heating system of pool has worked only since 15th Nov. There wasn't any problem with beach bed and so on. Our bungalow was with Mountain view on the left side from the entrance. It was fully equipped for cooking, even for dinner. As bonus we got free TV, because in our room TV lock was broken. No Russian channels, only CNN,Skynews, and too many German TV. I think if you want be near the ocean and spend many time on the beach you would choose another hotel. But on conditions that you prefer to spend 2-3 hours on the beach side and remaining time have for trip or for swimming pool relaxing - its really nice palce for you. It seems last bus coming back from beach side around 15.45. As final i wanna say that its good variant for first trip on Canary isl.
Excellent for families - and the brochure photos do the place justice, for once!
CliveS, Hampton, UK
We have just (this morning) arrived back from a week at the Cordial Green Golf Bungalows in Maspalomas. We went as a small group, my wife and I and our 3 year old son, and a couple of our friends and their 2 year old daughter. Booked via First Choice, the complex was recommended by the extremely helpful sales rep in their Staines travel shop, who pre-booked our seats together on the flights, and two adjacent pool-view bungalows. We had an excellent holiday. The complex is relatively quiet, very clean, very welcoming and well placed for the beach at Maspalomas. Anyone looking for more than a relaxing sun-sea-sand-pool style holiday should probably look elsewhere. The accommodation 'Bungalows' they are not! Each unit is on two floors, twin bedroom and shower room/loo upstairs and living room/kitchenette downstairs, with a sofa that sleeps one (six foot) adult. There is space for a standard sized travel cot in the bedroom if the twin beds are pushed together (our friends' daughter used one all week). Plenty of room for a small family or 3 adults sharing. With three of everything in the crockery cupboard, they are clearly not designed for more! The bungalows were extremely clean on arrival, and we witnessed the next door bungalow being cleaned while we were waiting to leave, and they do a 'proper job'! Towels were provided and they and the bedding were changed regularly. Daily maid service in the week, which included washing the floors. TVs are available, but have to be paid for, so we didn't bother. Having small children with us, we took the half board option so can't really comment on the facilities for self catering, but with only two electric rings and a toaster, eating out would probably be preferable! However even on half board it was excellent to have a fridge, kettle and toaster on hand to rustle up a cup of tea or a snack for hungry kids, or parents! Complex For once the place looks exactly as it does in the brochures, or Cordial's own website! The bungalows are situated around two big (for this sort of resort) pools, some facing towards them, some away (either facing the road or the fantastic golf course next door). I would suggest asking for a pool view, or if that isn't your thing a view of the golf course for maximum peace! The pools themselves were excellent. Cleaned every day, you couldn't fault them. One was heated, but even the unheated one was perfectly usable after you got over the first cold shock, and kept moving! In addition to the two main pools there was a small 'baby' pool, which was also heated. However, the pool heating was switched off at the end of March (halfway through our stay) whilst the very hot weather meant this didn't matter, the baby pool became a little chilly for anything more than a quick splash about before running for the towels. Around the pools and bungalows the gardens are well-kept and add a nice splash of colour. Each bungalow has a small 'terrace' area in front of it encircled by a low (flowering) hedge, and has climbing plants, also flowering, above the French windows. Overall the complex felt clean, well looked after and safe. Food As said above, we took the half board option. Given the parlous state of the £ at the moment, it was probably quite a bit cheaper than eating out for a week! Many reviewers on here seem to dislike the food at the complex, but we thought it was OK. Not Cordon Bleu, but you are not paying that kind of price. Given the large number of German and Scandinavian guests in Gran Canaria, the food did tend towards their tastes. There was a large selection on offer at breakfast, including sliced meats, cheese and breads, as well as croissants, cereals, plenty of fruit or a full fry-up. For dinner there were usually three or four (or more) main course choices, either fish, pasta or meat, plus salad bar and sundry cold platters for starters. Sweets were a bit limited, usually to one choice (usually fruit based) or ice-cream, but the ice-cream was lovely, and a hit with the kids! Wednesday night was BBQ night, and that was particularly good. Vegetarian, however, may want to go self-catering. Canarian food isn't well known for it's veggie options, and this was no exception. Even the side vegetable dishes invariably contained some meat sprinkled through them! There was always plenty of food, nobody stopped you going back for seconds, and it was always hot (in contradiction to some other reviews - including one person who it appears was there the exact same week we were!). Service Excellent. The reception staff were very helpful, and everyone on the complex, from the waiting staff to the pool staff and bungalow cleaners seemed very friendly and helpful, and many always said a cheery 'hola' to adults and children alike. In answer to some more negative reviews, I can only think that it helps if you treat them as people and not servants. Entertainment Not top-notch but quite fun in a cheesy way. Having very young children we did not see much of it, but the lady who ran a little disco for the kids twice in the week was great, and the children loved it. During weekdays there is a 'mini-club' - not much more than a few tables for the younger kids to sit at and draw stuff, but to be honest given the pools and the beach, why would they want anything else? Locality From the complex it is only about 20 minutes' walk (with pushchairs) to the beach at Maspalomas. This is excellent, with fine clean sand, lots of sun loungers and parasols if you want them, the usual cheesy seafront shops and some nice-looking restaurants and bars. There is a regular free coach from outside the complex to the beach, useful if you can't face the walk, or it's just too hot. Another free coach takes you into Playa des Ingles, if you are looking for that sort of thing. The beach there is also excellent (with fine views of the famous dunes). The nearest 'shopping centre' to the complex is Faro 2. Stand on the top of the steps outside Reception and you can see it. It has a decent supermarket - cheaper than the small one in the complex, which is just full of imported German food, priced accordingly. Faro 2 also has a number of restaurants and bars, although we didn't sample them. It has a bit of a run-down look and feel, which is a shame, but is handy for food shopping. The best shopping centre we found was on the sea front in Maspalomas. Walking past the lighthouse along the promenade, it's on your right. A good selection of shops and another supermarket (although it's too far to carry those big bottles of water back to the complex!). So in all, we though it was an excellent family holiday. If you want to relax in the sun, I would definitely recommend the Green Golf Bungalows for that sort of thing.
worth every pounnd
edge69, birmingham

Value for money accomodation
nursemillymolly, dorset
My husband and i stayed in this accomodation Nov 2008 and feel that it represents good value for money. The apartments are duplex style - lounge / kitchenette downstairs, bedroom / bathroom upstairs. Our accomodation was spotlessly clean, not a cockroach in site. TV rental is extra but we weren't bothered about TV. Decor is modern, bright and clean and furniture looks almost new. Facilities within the apartment basic - we ate out every night so therefore did not need to cook but everything you need to cook was there. Swimming pools on site were fabulous - spotlessly clean, big and plenty of sunbeds for everyone. Surrounding gardens etc very well maintained. Bar on site was adequate for our needs, staff polite but not particularly friendly. On site restaurant was terrible - food quality awful, service sub-standard. Bar snacks were ok - adequate for snacking. Minimal on-site entertainment, ladies fashion show not our cup of tea!! If you are looking for a relaxing holiday by day and party life by night (Gran Canaria has numerous karaoke bars, clubs etc) then this is the place for you. Do not expect culture, history etc on this type of holiday. Gran Canaria appears to have been developed for one purpose - to become as much like Benidorm as possible. There are some beautiful designer shops in the centre of Maspalomas, bags, clothes, sunglasses etc and some good restaurants not too far from the beach front. We visited the Las Vegas show and loved it - well worth the ticket price - good entertainment with meal included and the food was good. Maspalomas beach lovely but unfortunately we visited on a windy day and therefore did not stay too long! Weather was mostly warm with some hot days but there were clouds about on the warm days which made it hard to find the sun. Taxis are fairly cheap - location for these apartments good - easy reach of shopping centres etc.. If you like visiting places more than once then you would probably return here after your first visit.
Basic, but enjoyable

Green Golf Apartments Having read reviews about these apartments we were quite sceptical about what we would find, would they be cold, dark and dingy as we were lead to believe or would the pool be as cold as they say, I was proven wrong on this count, apart from the shoddy Thomson service. The rooms were well appointed, with Kitchenette, Sofa and 2 single beds- sad really as most people holidaying would either be married or couples but nevertheless nice rooms. We had an annoying leaking shower that dripped water on the floor, but so what, we just used one of the daily replace clean towels. In the morning given the time of year, it was cold especially as the floors were marble/slate throughout. The pool was decidedly cold and either the heating was not used for the pool or my ambient temperature checker was out of sync with the real world. But overall, the accommodation was very good, the location was excellent as was the value for money. The pool and pool area was excellent and the staff were brilliant. Given that we travelled off season, should we come back to Gran Canaria this would be somewhere worth revisiting, as it is close to amenities and was within walking distance to the beach and to the centre of Playa Del Ingles. I was not sure what to expect on our holiday to Gran Canaria, famed for cheapfood and booze, hot sun and plenty to do yet with a decidedly dodgy Pount to Euro conversion rate it almost seemed that everything was the same price. Lots of good restaurants, including Roma, La Casa, Adria, and good food at the Gran Chapparal but please read the menu before you go in, as some of the soft drink prices were rather high.
Very pleasent

myself,wife and son stayed here self catering for a week in november and have a very nice week with great weather, and is in a good location near to the faro center,holiday world and also close to the dunes. The complex is very clean and friendly, we bought breafast tokens for 6 euros and had breakfast most days and was very good. the pool areas are large with a lap pool running along the middle and the kids pool was warm and enjoyable. The apartment on the whole where ok, our first time in a 2 story abroad, please be careful of the stairs if you got young kids, they really need carpet(how british). Its also close to the waterpark and palmitos park with busses running daily from the main road. On the whole a good week Maspalomas is a nice area away from the main resort of Playa del Ingles and will go back for winter sun, hope this helps
good family resort
hamhenke, scotland
Stayed at the cordial green golf bungalows for a week with my wife , 7 year old daughter and had a couple of friends staying next to us.The bungalows are basic but surprisingly quite modern having recently been giving an upgrade. we found the complex was large with two separate long pools that were nicely designed but the whole place was nice and quiet ideal for what we came on holiday for - relaxing. the bar and restuarant were ok but we were self catering anyway and stocked up beers and groceries from the supermarket most of the time. The mini market on the complex was a bit pricey but a ten minute walk takes you you to faro 2 which is a large shopping centre with plenty of choice for gift shops and restuarants and the like.The nearest beach is a pleasant 20 minute walk or you can use the free bus just outside the complex which picks up and drops off at regular intervals, we found the beach good but quite windy, also there is a nudist area not too far away from the main part ha ha.if you have kids the camel rides at the beach are great and you get led into the famous sand dunes(better to pay for this on the spot rather than do it through the reps, much cheaper.)We had a night out in Puerto Rico and a day out in Playa De Ingles but preferered being in Masaplomas not too far from either, and much more relaxed.Our bungalow faced the road and we would prob had preferred one with a pool view however we were only seconds away from the pool,reception,main gates etc so was fine in the end.Overall i would say that this resort is superb value for money, a good place to stay with no loud noise and a good family resort.
A very njce place to stay
Goingonhols, Armagh
Stayed here over Hallowean,found the property to be well kept the pool area clean and the apartments were lovely. Had no problems with noise at night and for such a large complex was an added bonus.We were self-catering,so didnt eat there but plenty of other clients were which would suggest that the food was up to standard. Try some of the restaurants at the sea-front at the LIGHTHOUSE jn Meleronas we enjoyed the Casa Lola restaurant the most The service and food were excellant.Would have no problem returning to these apartments,they are in a quiet area and if you want more excitement only a taxi ride from playa de ingles.It was mostly families and couples staying here and it was relaxing.
Nice place to stay
DublinDes, Dublin
Stayed in the Green Golf for a week in October 2008 with my wife and 5 month old daughter. The apartments are actually little teraced duplexes and are very clean and comfortable. Ours faced onto the road and so had no view but most face onto the pool or the golf course. Its all on the flat so no carrying buggy upstairs. The pool is fab and the food of decent quality. We ate in the Faro 2 complex each night but playa del ingles or maspalomas beach area are walkable (30-45min) or are only 3euro in taxi. Overall a good place to stay if you are looking for a quiet week with meals out a few glasses of wine especially with very young children. Not a lager lout to be seen.
Lovely and quiet

We arrived at the Cordial Green Golf at 10.30 pm but we should have been there earlier in the evening. This was due to a three hour delay because of a techical fault on our Air Europa flight. When we booked our holiday we requested an apartment away from the swimming pools and on checking in found that we had been allocated accommodation facing towards the outside of the complex. As it was dark when we arrived, It was not until the following morning that we found out that we were overlooking the golf course. From reading reviews of this complex we were expecting the accommodation to be of a high standard and we were not disappointed. Our apartment was spotless and during our week's stay the towels were changed every other day and the bed linen was changed once. Some reviewers have commented that the apartments are a bit compact. We have stayed in self catering accommodation with more floor space but we found this apartment to be perfectly adequate in this respect. The onsite supermarket has a limited stock but was handy for getting heavier items like water, although the supermarket at Faro II has is larger and a bit cheaper. We were not sure what to expect at Faro II. Turns out it is a circular two storey building. Felt a bit deserted at times as a number of the units are empty and Maspalomas did not seem that busy with tourists. Ate at Pizzeria PIz-Paz, Toro Piedra II, New Dali (was Ka Nicolas) and Cho Juanillo. Not that much to choose between them - they all have the same menus! Entertainment at night is very low key. On one evening the Cordial Green Golf's entertainment was a fashion show then bingo. Walked through to Playa del Ingles one day but was not impressed, a bit tacky really. The only negative point was our Direct Holiday's rep. At the Welcome Meeting she did not have much to say about the resort, was more interested in selling tickets for the "Reps Evening" or arranging for "your free day out at Anfi and on your return you will get a 45 euro discount voucher to use against the cost of an excursion". According to the Anfi website it is the "number one Vacation Membership company in Europe". Did not expect Direct Holidays to be promoting a timeshare complex. It is easy to see why some reviewers have been to this complex on a number of occasions. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday in the sun at a well maintained complex then the Cordial Green Golf will not disappoint.

Recently spent a week in the Cordial Green Golf Bungalows, and was impressed with the complex. The bungalows have living area on ground level and a bedroom and bathroom on 1st floor. Apparently they were completely renovated a couple of years ago, which is quiet evident. I found the place to be very clean and very well maintained, however the bungalows are a little on the small side and I would think you would be very stuck for space should you need to use the sofa bed in the living room. We had to move the beds each day to access the wardrobe otherwise whoever is sleeping by the window will have to climb over their partner to get out of bed, but its only a minor inconvenience. You are provided with very basic cooking utensils but do you really need them? And do not expect items such as hair dryer, or microwave. TV available to rent with very limited English channels, we did not bother with it. The complex has two huge swimming pools (one heated during winter months). I was impressed that the edges of the pools were scrubbed each morning. There were plenty of sun beds to go around. The on site shop has the essentials, but 10 min walk away Faro 2 Shopping Centre has two larger supermarkets. The bar is fairly basic, and Im not sure what to make of the staff there, they were a little gruff. We did not spent much time there, because just down the road about 40 min walk or quick taxi ride (3.00) brings you to Faro Maspalomas where there is an abundance of lovely restaurants and bars and great shopping. I would recommend you try the Bali restaurant across the road from the Casino. They have a 17 course feast for two that you should try, also to be recommended is Casa Lola restaurant.
Clean, quiet and VFM

We stayed at the "bungalows" mid-September this year. As noted before - they are actually small 2 storey "houses" with a small terrace, living area with kitchenette downstairs and a bedroom and bathroom above. The balcony outside the bedroom has a washing line for your smalls but no space for a chair! These are fine for a base though I wouldn't want to try to spend too much time inside as it does feel a little cramped! The beds (2 singles) take up most of the bedroom and you have to almost push them together to get into the wardrobe but the fan is a welcome addition on warm nights. The pool areas are really well kept with lovely gardens and extremely well cared for - a few cats around but as we are avid cat lovers that was no problem for us. Nowhere near the numbers you get in some places and obviously well cared for so you won't get hassled by them unless you keep offering them food. The beds at the pool are plentiful (no need to get up at stupid o'clock and get a towel down) though a little uncomfortable with no matresses and, if I was going to have a moan, I do prefer ones with adjustable backs so I can sit up and read or lay down and snooze.... The 30 minute walk to the beach is well lit and at least makes you feel like you are exercising off some of the great food on offer - Antonios fish restaurant on the beach (next to Paddy's Irish Bar) and Maximillians Italian by the lighthouse were 2 favourites. We were very disappointed by Faro 2 - it is quite shabby compared to 5 years ago when we were last there, a number of places have closed down - the locals told us that there is much less tourism in the area now and it is having a bad impact on the centre. The Mexican was AWFUL, the sizzling fajita was barely warm and the vegetable burrito clearly had a handful of 'English' frozen veg shoved in it and warmed through. The on site shop is more expensive for most things though we recommend you buy milk from there - 2 lots bought at Faro 2 were "off" and it was a hassle to trek back (I know its only 5 minutes but in the heat it is a pain!) and argue about.... For .05 cents more get it at the on site place!! The courtesy bus worked fine for us but we did only use it once to the beach and once to Playa D'Igles! All in all, it is clean, quiet, a relaxing location and good value for money. We booked through Travel Republic - everything worked perfectly including a Merc to transport us from the airport to our accomodation!

Stayed at the Green Golf in Sept. 2008. The "bungalows" which are actually two storeys are perfect with all the essential equipment for a self catering holiday. They were spotless and cleaned everyday. Travelling alone for a relaxing holiday I was worried about Green Golf being a rowdy resort but it is nice and peaceful. I had a golf course view and it was very quiet (I recommend the golf course view if you want peace during the day as the others all face onto the pool). The Faro2 shopping centre is only a 5-10 minute walk away, the supermarket here is slightly cheaper than the one in the resort. It is about a 15-20 minute walk down to the beach/lighthouse area (very nice walk past the nature reserve) where there are loads of shops and restaraunts. The resort puts on a free bus to the beach and the taxis were always less than 3 euros. A must to eat in is Grand Italia (at the lighthouse), it is a little dearer than all the others but it is well worth it.
Great Bungalows
alan44, yorkshire
Some of the best accomodation we have stayed at recently. The bungalows are actually two storey little houses. They are very modern and a bonus is the ceiling fans in the bedroom and lounge. They really help to keep you cool at night. There are two fantastic pools but no sun shades apart from one or two 'shelters'. 5 Minute walk to the Faro 2 Shopping Centre where all the restaurants are. Most of the food here was very good, especially Tex Mex in the centre. Plenty to choose from. There is also a childrens playground including trampolines, carousel etc.5 minute taxi ride to Playa Del Ingles and only costs 3 euros each way. Make sure you visit Aqualand water park which is again only a 10 minute taxi ride away. Another nice day out is Palmitos Park which is a 20 minute drive away. We would definitely stay here again.
Good holiday
bordeauxbabe, Surrey, England
Good place to stay, bungalows (2 storey?) are compact but very nice with enough facilities for self catering, and had a nice patio area with table and chairs. Bedroom was large enough and the third bed (sofa) was suprisingly comfortable. Bedroom balcony only really big enough to hang towels and washing, not big enough to sit out. Bathroom had a shower only. The bungalows are very clean and well maintained with a maid service 5 times a week. The complex is not too large, swiming pools are great and never crowded, with just enough loungers to go round. On site supermarket is fine, and stocked with plenty of english products but is expensive. Reception were helpful and safe, tv etc were very easy to arrange. Note only 2 english speaking channels on tv - CNN and Eurosport (with simultanious english and german commentary) Nearby Faro 2 shopping and restaurants (it literally is 5 minutes walk just as the brochure said) is ideal for eating out in the evenings. We used Broncemar II (cheap but good quality) and Cho Juanillo (a bit pricier but very good food) the most. At both you get a shot of honey rum at the end of the meal which is very addictive. The supermarket at Faro 2 is much cheaper than the one on site. Don't bother with Holiday World - a very poor set of basic fairground rides Free bus service (opposite entrance to complex) takes about 5 minutes to ge to Maspalomas beach). Lovely beach, nice clean sand, with shops and restaurants to walk around. Free bus also goes to Playa del Ingles (very tacky in comparison to Maspalomas), but a great chinese buffet restaurant (all you can eat for about £6 each) in the shops above the beach. All in all a good break, if your thing is sitting round a pool or on the beach it is ideal.
so relaxing
sunny1988, sunny1988
We booked this as a last minute deal (very cheap) so wasn't expecting to much, but to our suprise our little bungalow was ideal my boyfriend and myself. Facing right on to the pool it was great to relax in the evening in ur own little garden!!! the pools are huge,clean and very relaxing. No problems getting sunbeds!!!! food in the faro centre is lovely(tex mex was fab), also down in melnores the resturantes are luvly and at nite is a lovely place to go.... all in all we had a great relaxing holiday and came home refreshed wud definatly return for another week or two.
Relaxing and pretty bungalows
cat121, essex, england
Stayed at the Green Golf Apartments from the 26thJuly until the 10th August with my boyfriend and my family in two very nice bungalows, one overlooking the pool and one overlooking the golf course. The bungalows themselves are compact, clean and tidy but do not have enough equipment for the self catering option - very limited cutlery, plates and general cooking appliances - this pretty much forces you to go out to eat in restaurants. The bungalows are very pretty from the outside and the interior decor is very attractive. Pools are beautiful. Well kept, very clean and large. Lots of sunbeds for everyone (surprising for the school holidays!) and very relaxing and quiet during the day and in the evening. Bar by the pool was quite nice, average prices, not much entertainment going on - not that we minded because we went out in the evening. Mini Market on the complex didn't have much to choose from and was quite pricey compared to the other supermarkets we found. Location is good. 5 minute walk to Faro 2 which has a big supermarket, bars and nice restaurants which are quite reasonable. Really liked Cho Juanilo (steak house) which has lovely views of the mountains, brilliant food and great service. Also El Nublo does fab toasties and english breakfasts! 5 minutes in a taxi to Playa Del Ingles and Maspalomas beach/town (costs about 3 euros one way in a taxi - very cheap). Maspalomas beach is lovely, and the town there has some lovely bars and gorgeous shops! Playa Del Ingles is okay but the people that pester you to come into their bar/restaurant can get a bit agressive and it really put me off - some good night life though if you do want clubs and bars. Very expensive for us because of the euro being so strong at the moment - but if I found a good deal I would return to the Green Golf because they were a lovely, relaxing place to stay.
penigill, edinburgh
Just back from the Green Golf recently and it was a good holiday...perhaps not a great one though. We booked bungalows through Thomsons several months ago and requested south facing pool view or golf course view. We got north facing by the road...not quite what we asked for and on asking to move was told 4 days which turned to 9. By that time decided to just stay where we were. Apart from that we found the bungalows clean and spacious. First week maid service was great but second week not so...didn't come to us for a few days. Restaurant is adequate but much nicer to wander 5 mins to left of bungalows to Gran Canale or taxi to Faro 2/Meloneras area where plenty restaurants (not the cheapest though) and shops. One warning is bypass the chinese restaurant on promenade as service dreadful. Go to Casa Lola next door and enjoy a great meal and be spoiled. Beaches are fab, pool at bungalows are excellent, plenty of nightlife and taxis are cheap. Dolphin search trip also good and Sioux City is a great night. All in all a good time.
Very very nice place to stay, but>>>>>
allatim, allatim
Beautiful place very relaxing , had a bumgalow by the pool , tasty decor , pool was so clean , but the reception staff were lousy, I mean really bad to the point of being ignorant, more interested in doing their nails than looking after the guests.I must underline reception staff not cleaning staff or anyone else.
Great Place, Great Value
iLoveTheSunAndTheSea, East Mids
Very clean, gorgous little kitchen and lounge and bedroom and bathroom upstairs, great shower. very clean, not smelly. Compact but not a problem. Lovely pool very clean. Friendly guests, staff average, cleaning ladies very nice. Very safe, good location, in the middle of everthing, Las Palmas and walk along the sea, lovley restauants. We paid about £330 for a week, myself and my best friend for a relaxing week in the sun. Wasn't too keen on the acual country, not much charm or culture, in my opinion but the accomodation is faultless and we had a really nice week.
Very nice complex to stay
Elizabeth92, leeds
Good points : Overall very pleasent holiday. Rooms very tidy with maid clean 5 times a week. The pool was beautifully maintained and the surrounding were very pleasent too. Reception staff were to hand 24hours a day. The rep was there 6 days out of 7 so good. The complex restaurant was sufficient and would meet basic needs. There was 2 pool tables and 1 ping pong table which were popular. A lot of sunbeds. Felt safe and self catering accomodation was very good. Bad points : The only one big problem I found and what i found other people agreed was that many flights back to the UK are during the night or late evening. We had to be out of our rooms by 12 midday. There was no where to keep our suitcase during the day apart from reception where people could have just walked in and take it, so not safe. But the main problem was the coach to pick us up wasn't until 23:45 at night which meant we were out of our rooms for just under 12 hours. We had no where to sit but by the pool which left us very uncomftable in that heat. Stuck outside in that heat for that long with no access to proper accomodation was so awful during the heat of the day. When I asked if we could keep the room until the coach left the reception staff had a very bad attitude of "it's not our problem you have to deal with it." So we went to our rep where she just said there's nothing I can do but surely she should of been able to help us find shade from the sun. supermarkets where ridiculously over priced so be warned. Would consider going again but only if didn't have such long wait after having to check out but looking at british flights that travel back from the complex i doubt that would be possible.
great stay at green golf
palto, cork
I stayed at green golf bungalows in maspalomas with my wife and 5 year old child. i would highly recommend these apartments for a stay in gran canaria.The swimming pool is the best i have ever been in,It was cleaned every morning and so were apartments.There was very good entertainment for kids every night.I will definately be going back for another great holiday.
Brilliant Bungalows!!
Seljc, Wales
We have just returned from a week at the Green Golf Bungalows & wanted to write to tell everyone what a great time we had. As two late twenty year olds, it was our first holiday away together and we ended up booking the Green Golf as a last minute deal. We were not disappointed as it was so nice & relaxing that I wish we had booked two weeks. The bungalow themselves were lovely, clean & modern with a kitchenette & small living area downstairs and then upstairs was the bedroom & bathroom with a small balcony. Our bungalow was facing the road but this did not bother us as the road is very quiet and it was nice being away from the bustle of the pool area. We stayed self-catering and with a small supermarket at the complexes it adhered to all our needs. The gardens around the pool and complexes were bright & colourful and superbly maintained. There were always plenty of sun beds available around the pool so you never had the nightmare of having to wake up early just to reserve a bed. We did eat at the poolside bar once which was typical basic Spanish food. This was ok during the day for grabbing a snack but in the evening we wandered down the beachfront past the lighthouse where there was an arrangement of fine dine restaurants, shops and boutiques. The walk to the beach is about 30 minutes past the dunes and nature reserve and is completely flat. We really enjoyed walking but you can get the free bus from the complexes in the day if you fancy the beach & a taxi is no more that 3. I would thoroughly recommend the Green Golf Bungalows for all age ranges. Being a 30-minute walk away from Maspalomas and Playa Del Ingles you can choose to make the holiday as loud or quiet as you like. There are plenty of bars and clubs in Playa del Ingles if you fancy a night out and Maspalomas offers the lovely restaurants and shops if you wanted something quieter.
Great Place
bluefudge, Grimsby
I'll keep this concise and to the point. Best Place to eat:- The Bamboo Garden. A short walk from the Green Golf complex this Chinese resturant is fantastic. For some reason its empty most of the time but dont let this put you off. The staff, decor and food are first class. Located next to the dry flood chanel on the way to mas palomas. Best thing to do:- The Super Cat. Booked via tour rep the boat trp was fantastic. A real chill day out. Downside:- If you go to playa, watch out for groups of African women offering to tell your fortune. Its legalised mugging and marred the whole day for us. Avoid at all costs. Hotel:- clean. Great pool (a bit cold). Food wasn't great. Located in well maintained gardens and very quiet.
A lovely sunny winter break
debs_dw, Tyne and Wear
My partner and I (in our 40's) visited the Bungalows for a weeks break. We had never visited Gran Canaria and it was a very pleasant experience. The accomodation was newly decorated, clean, well planned and spacious enough for 2 of us...any more would have left us feeling crowded. The bungalows are not actually bungalows but 1 storey townhouses. The only bathroom is within the bedroom so a 3rd guest would need to come through your bedroom to reach it. The bedroom has a small balcony overlooking your own little patio and garden. Some of the townhouses face north which means you wont get any sun on your patio garden. We were lucky, ours faced south and we were bathed in sun morning thru night. The walls of the townhouses are really thin and you can here most of the neighbours on both sides. We had an awful neighbour who had a hacking cough and it kept my parter awake a lot. Dont bother eating at the onsite restaurant, it's not good and the 12 euros for the buffet is really overpriced. The pool area is attractive and spacious. The resort of Maspalomas is a 30 min walk or you can taxi for 4euro's. Gran Canaria is a lovely island but beware if you are afraid of heights, some of the roads are hairy and scary so get someone else to drive and lie down on the back seat as I did so that you cant see!! We would definately return to the bungalows, having toured the island and seen some of the awful sky scraping hotels built into the sides of the mountains...just awful.
lovely relaxing stay
lambert141, Leeds
My husband and I went for a cheap week away and really liked green golf. Admittedly with the current strength of the euro, it didn't end up quite so cheap after a week of eating and drinking, but it was a thoroughly enjoyable holiday. The apartment was lovely - they have been refurbished to a high standard. Great bathroom, large twin/double bed, no air con but the ceiling fan was fine. The wardrobes were in a random place which meant getting in and out of them was a bit of a squash but hardly a problem. We were lucky to be poolside and south facing, so it was nice and convenient to sunbathe in our little "garden" on our own private loungers, and pop in and out as we pleased. The surroundings were lovely - all very well kept, really neat and clean. Reception staff were really friendly. The main pool was huge and there was plenty of room to bathe. Free bus to the beach was convenient and even though we had a car for the week I would recommend the bus as parking seemed to be a nightmare down there. I would definitely recommend aqualand - just up the road across the motorway (on several bus routes or 4 euros in a taxi). It was expensive (23 euros pp entry and more for beds/lockers) but you can get a wristband to allow you back for free at any time within 10 days - so we returned again the next day! Best waterpark I've been to - fantastic slides and great fun. On an evening Faro 2 (a short walk across some wasteland) was convenient for a small range of pubs and restaurants but you couldn't go there every night. We got a taxi (2/3 euros) to Yumbo centre in Playa del Ingles on a couple of nights for a chinese buffet (6 euros) and much cheaper drinks. We also took a trip down to Faro Centre (by the lighthouse) in the car one day to see if it was worth walking down there on a night - but it didn't seem too exciting at first glance so we never made the trip. I now wish we had as it turns out we didn't come across the main promenade of excellent bars and restaurants on the sea front! For a self catering apartment I wouldn't say the kitchen equipment was great (2 ring hob, fridge and coffee maker) but there were plenty of pots, pans and utensils. We tended to just make sandwiches for lunch and eat out most nights so it was fine for our needs. We stayed on a B&B basis but I would probably recommend SC - the breakfast wasn't anything to shout about (our only real gripe): uncooked bacon, boiled eggs, cold beans and a variety of breads, hams and cheese was about the size of it. And we had the BBQ one night - which was ok, but not worth the 12.50 they charged. On the whole, I would definitely recommend the place for a relaxing stay. Yeah, the location isn't great and there's little goes on on a night in the way of entertainment, but it is beautiful and there are so many cheap transport options.
Donnyboy07, South Yorks
My wife and I stayed at this establishment from 13th - 20th Mar 2008 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Although described as bungalows, the accomodation we stayed in was actually a 2 floor apartment, living room and kitchen downstairs and a bedroom upstairs. The accomodation was very clean on arrival and was kept that way by the maid service throughout the week. Maid service was 5 days out of 7 and towels were also changed on a regular basis. The hotel has two good sized swimming pools, the one nearest the Bar/Restaurant being heated. There are also plenty of free sunbeds. The pools were regularly maintained and the surrounding areas kept very clean. There are also shallower pools for children and toddlers. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful and the reception staff have a good command of English. They were only too happy to give advice on local buses etc, to Playa Del Ingles and Puerto Rico for example, although taxis are cheap and plentiful. The hotel also runs a free bus service to and from Maspalomas beach. We found the bar and restaurant prices very reasonable, service was good and the same could be said for the food. Prices in the Mini Market downstairs at the main entrance are also pretty reasonable, although choice is naturally limited. If you want more choice, try Netto at the Yumbo Centre in Playa del Ingles. We can thoroughly recommend the Dolphin Search boat trip which we booked via our Thomson Rep (Catherine), also a very helpful young lady. At a cost of 29 Euros each it was a great trip and we managed to see a few dolphins. Thomsons use the "Magic Vision" boat rather than "Spirit of the Sea" . We think that "Magic Vision" is better value as you get an extra half hour on board. All in all we had a great time at Green Golf and would recommend them to anyone. We shall certainly be returning, hopefully, in the not too distant future.
A nice surprise !!!
streaky1, streaky1
After reading the varying reviews on this hotel and destination, myself and my husband weren't sure what to expect - however upon arrival and throughout our stay we were pleasantly surprised. The bungalow was a good size , kitchen and sitting room downstairs and good size bathroom and bedroom upstairs. Very clean. Small balcony upstairs and terrace area downstairs - luckily we were south facing so could lounge about all day in the sun and retreat inside when we needed to. We ate at the hotel once - the bbq - wouldn't really recommend it for price, not much choice and quality wasn't great. Pools are lovely and there was always space around them. We saw no cockroaches or bugs. Lots of birds around though. The shower had a habit of going hot ocassionally without warning and the amount of times i bent down to pick up the shampoo and turned it off with my bum got a bit out of hand too !! Hotel staff weren't going to win any customer service awards, but we didn't have any real problems. Melanares was a 10 minute walk away and play de ingles about 20 mins. Faro shopping centre at Melanares had good restaurants - Grand Italio and Faro Grill- the chinese was good too. We like our food so were keen to find some good eateries. Also good was fountain de trevi - outside nr the bus terminal behind the Faro complex - and the golf complex / course just to the left of the cordial golf bungalows did some lovely food - and we watched how the other half lived for the afternoon too! All in all it was a nice break - hot weather - 25-30 degrees, bit windy, but not too bad. Would recommend this for couples wanting a quiet break - options to go to some busier bars in ingles and a bit more up market in melanares if you fancied. Really happy with our stay.
Clean, friendly, modern, functional, quiet - GREAT
tiger_faulkner, birmingham, uk
My girlfriend and i searched the web reading lots of reviews for the best place to stay - the best resort for us etc and after reading lots of nightmare reviews we eventually decided to go with bungalows cordial green golf. It was everything we could have hoped for - the review title says it all really. I would / have definitely recommend this place to our friends and family. There isn't a view from the rooms as its about a mile and half from the beach but the ambience, friendliness of staff and other guests (mostly 30+ and quite a lot of germans) make up for this. The grounds are beautiful and landscaped and the staff and management seem to take a great pride over the place. Its close enough to bars and shops and the sister hotel across the road does an excellent buffet for only 12 euros - bargain! Good days out can be had at mogan (beautiful and nice cafes / restaurants) la palmas for the day is excellent (lovely back streets and cafes and museums) get there by bus - only a couple of quid - in fact get everywhere by bus! and of course boat which is great also and can be caught everywhere it seems. Porto rico is ok for about 2 hours as its is just so bult up and a bit like a gold fish bowl. Maspalomas is excellent for a day out: great shops and cafes along the front and then the sand dunes and the nudist beach and from here you can walk around the sea front (very interesting) to playa ingles - a lovely walk! Dont know too much about playa ingles - passing through on the bus it just seemed tacky and frankly a bit too camp for our liking (too much in yer face mincing going on) Gran Canaria does what it says on the tin - guaranteed sun and its only 4 hours from the UK. Its not going to change the world or win awards etc but for a quick getaway to a place which is relatively cheap, friendly, sunny and not too far from the UK its does the job. I would go here rather than egypt i feel
No probs
JerseyBilbo, Jersey
Please ignore any pre 2006 revues as those guests obviously stayed before the big refurbishment. We found the apartments very clean and comfortable. Lovely grounds and pool area. Staff friendly and helpful. Not much sun in our particular apartment (north facing). But no problem as plenty of sunbeds around the pool.(sadly no cushions). Shop and resturant were both basic but adequate. The bar closed fairly early which makes for a peaceful holiday. Plenty of bars and resturants at the Faro2 center. 10 minutes walk, or Maspolomas and Player del Ingles 5 minutes in a taxi. Would also recommend the Canale Grande resturant a few minutes walk from the complex. Overal an enjoyable experience with not a bug or bite to report
Great for a family holiday by the pool
Cavabubbles, Cardiff
Booked through Thomson - SC with breakfast added as an option. Flight great and transfers via coach were excellent. Checked in and luckily were given a south facing bungalow. This got the sun virtually all day so was lovely for sunbathing and two loungers are provided in your own mini front garden. Lounge and Kitchen: equipment is adequate with a coffee maker, toaster, two halogen hob rings (super fast heat up) but no kettle - luckily we had a travel kettle with us. Upstairs bedroom with separate bathroom but only a small shower. We have a 15mth daughter who is used to baths so this wasn't ideal but by the end of the holiday she was happy in the shower. It was powerful with plenty of hot water. Safe for hire in wardrobe was huge - large enough for a laptop. A cot wasn't provided when we arrived but a quick call to reception and within 10 minutes someone arrived with one for us. 3 pools (1 baby; 1 heated; 1 freezing) The heated one still felt cold but welcome relief from the sun even in January! OK as long as you keep moving and warm by comparison of pools at other apartments nearly. Baby pool much warmer - like a bath when returning from the main heated pool. The unheated one was practically unused in January. Pools geat for serious swimmers due to their length. Plenty of free sunloungers. Had breakfast as an option which was OK... buffet style. Items were restocked but not always regular. Much easier than cooking it yourself though, especially with a baby in tow. Supermarket on site was OK but not as cheap, or with such a selection, as the one at the bottom of Faro2. Lunch and evening restaurant food in the complex was good value and great but we only ate here a few times. Entertainment OK - we did a quiz (won a bottle) and (watched) karaoke! 2 pool tables and table tennis also avilable. Most nights we went to faro 2 (10 min walk with a pushchair: 7 min without) I must recommend michael Angelo and Cho Juanillo restaurants in Faro 2 as we had some great meals here. There was hard sell with a lot of the restaurants in faro2 so be prepared to be hassled to take a seat even if you only want a look at the menu! Taxi's were cheap (3 euros to beach or Playa del Ingles). Gardens and public areas are all well maintained and clean. Childrens playground had a slide, swings, see-saw and ride-on animals in a grassy area. Overall, this was a brilliant family holiday.
Christmas Sun
DaveHodgins, Bangor Co Down Northern Ireland
Chose this place from limited availability of Christmas departures from N.Ireland. Stayed 22Dec to 29Dec. Apartment quite small (max 3 persons) - walk into lounge from small patio area with table & 2 chairs. Lounge has 2/3 seat sofa (which doubles as bed for a third person) an arm chair and table, 3 stools at breakfast bar, kitchen area with 2 ringed electric hob,sink cupboards kettle toaster etc. There is a small TV which is an additional cost 10 Euros per week but is very limited - 3 english speaking channels CNN,Sky News & Eurosport. We did not use the TV and were glad of a week free of it. Up to shower room & double bedroom (2 single beds pushed together) with decent storage and good sized room safe which will hold a laptop easily (had expected to use my laptop but was too busy with other things so I can't advise if wifi available, there is internet access available at reception but again I survived with out it!) , leading to a small balcony. Very clean and refurbished in 2006. Our family of 4 (all adults) took 2 bungalows and found them perfect for our needs. 24 hour reception with excellent helpful multi-lingualstaff. good sized communal area housing restaurant, bar and entertainment stage. Nightly entertainment quite varied both in content and quality. Staff good but watch out for oldest member of staff who has an annoying habit of creeping up behind relaxed customers and clicking his fingers by their ears - grow up fellah and save it for the kids. 2 large pools in seperate areas - 1 heated from November to March both with more than adequate sunbeds, tables chairsand 2 pool tables. Extremely attractive clean pool areas, well maintained gardens and a childrens play area away from pool area. Has a reasonable sized supermarket under reception providing all essentials. Good range of excursions available both from Holiday Co. Rep & through reception. Amongst others we took a day trip to Tenerife the main attraction being Loro Parque zoo. Would not recommend this - 5.15am pickup and returned 12.30 am far too long spent travelling 3 hours each way on ferry and too long on bus. Recommend buggy trip highly (need driving licence) a 40 mile on & off road trip especially for closet boy (and girl) racers. Good scenery and good fun. Taxis extremely cheap so use them to get to the many commercial centres where most of the restaurants and bars are to be found. The exception would be Faro 2 which is a 5 -10 minute stroll from Green Golf. 2 restaurants I would recommend are - Cho Juanillo in Faro 2 (had 3 meals there - excellent food at good price and good friendly service) & La Fontana de Trevi at the Oasis Centre in Maspalomas. Very good week, the place was fully booked but at no time did it seem cramped or crowded. Have visited Spain 3 times this year after a 20 year gap and love it so much we are buying property to retire to on the mainland.
Well maintained

I have stayed there three times and I have found the staff to be helpful, friendly and polite. The site is well designed and the bungalows are fitted out to a high standard. I stay half board and the food is always good. It is quiet at night and is not crowded during the day. Though not adjacent to the beach there is a free bus service which only takes a few minutes.
Very impressed
speckiefoureyes, London
We stayed at the Green Golf appartments for a week at the beginning of March and I really was impressed. The bungalows are actually really cute houses with kitchen and lounge downstairs and the bathroom and bedroom upstairs. The bungalows have been recently refurbished and are modern stylish and contemporary. The setting is a little bit off the beaten track but I really appreciated the peace and quiet and the gardens and grounds are immaculately looked after. The pool area is also very impressive. The only minor downside would be that the allocation of your bungalow is quite a lottery. The complex is north facing, with a road on one side and a peaceful golf course on the other. We were in one of the north facing appartments and were always envious of our neighbours on the other side basking in the sun when we were always in the shade. Although we were self catering we did pay the 11 euro for the evening buffet a couple of times and although not excellent the food was certainly good value for money. All in all I had a thoroughly relaxing time and would highly recommend the Green Golf Appartment. I can't wait to return!
Nicely Refurbished
Anon Nemo, Leeds, England
This was our 4th stay at the Green Golf, having obviously enjoyed previous stays. Since our last visit, the accommodation has been very nicely refurbished, though the jury's still out on the external paintwork. We thought it was much nicer when it was all white. I was a bit alarmed to read in another review about burglaries and the response of the reception staff. We've never had any problems, touch wood, but we've always stayed at the western end of the complex, near the golf course practice ground, where access from outside the complex would be difficult. Reception people were friendly and helpful. The bar area is pleasant, overlooking the large pool. We found the restaurant snacks during the day to be OK, but on an evening we always ate out. We did the "Royal" tour of the island with Last Minute Travel for 29 euros each. This can be booked at reception. It was a very enjoyable trip, taking in Las Palmas, Agaete, a couple of pleasant villages inland and Puerto Mogan, which is a beautiful place. The tour guide was excellent. We only encountered a couple of cockroaches and the manner of their demise must have discouraged their friends. We did, however, suffer more insect bites than we have before at this time of year. Perhaps global warming is even affecting the Canaries and making the more vicious insects appear earlier. All in all though , a very pleasant holiday and we would definitely visit the Green Golf again.
nice to relax
willemijn, Groningen
I went together with my boyfriend and my brother in law to Green golf. We booked a three room appartment, it was terrific: good beds, very clean. The living room is not very big, but that did not matter because the weather was very good and we stayed outside every day and evening. The people who work there are very nice and helpfull, all the food was also very good. The swimming poole is heated and very big, we went swimming every day. We rented a car and have seen a lot of the Island and also other appartments etc, we were glad to stay in Green Golf, did'nt see any place better during our trips...
Will return to the Green Golf in the future

Green Golf apartments were well maintained on the outside, the pool area was cleaned everyday so were the pathways. The outward appearance of the apartments were in good order but the interiors need refurbishing. The kitchen area was adequate but again could have done with some new utensils. The bed linen and the towels needed replacing as some of them were well worn. Overall the accomodation was in an excellent location regarding peace and quiet. The maids were very good and maintained a high standard of cleanliness in our apartment. The on site shop was adequate for our needs. I found the taxi service from the Green Golf was exceptional and the reception staff were brilliant at helping me organise a 21st birthday! I would certainly return to the Green Golf. The staff at the Green Golf worked really hard so that we could have an enjoyable rest. M and R

Green Golf Bungalows/Apartments Gran Canaria..
atmc, sligo ireland
Green Golf - Gran Canaria - lovely - no cockroaches, ants or any other bugs. Pool huge -ask for sunny bungalow/apartment when you book in. Ours had no sun all day due to its position (no. 155) - Faro 2 across road is good shopping complex with many bars and restaurants. Best restaurant in area is Le Provencal, French family run business - excellent food - you can walk to Playa de Ingles or get taxi (E3.00) or bus locally- Go to Port Mogan - beautigul on bus. Beautiful port, beach, lovely shops - reminds you of Venice. We were here for a week beginning 12th Nov.- We give the holiday 8 out of 10 - only because we have already been to Sth. Africa and you cannot beat that. Have a good one..

I went with my family to the Green Golf Apartments at the end of August this year, and couldn't find any major faults with it. Although we did have some ants, it is only to be expected in a hot resort such as this, they certainly wern't anything we hadn't already experienced in other holiday resorts, and we found that a tin of ant killer available from the hotel shop worked wonders! Although our rep warned us that cockroaches were a problem all over Gran Canaria, we only saw one in our two week stay. Our apartment was roomy enough for 3, cleaned to a high standard, sheets and towels changed everyday (except Sundays, when the cleaners had a day off), and we found all the staff very friendly and helpful, always offering an "hola!" as we passed. Although we often ate out at the Faro Centre, 10 minutes walk away, we found the food at the hotel basic but tasty and filling. The pools were massive and very clean, on the few days in which the sun didn't shine the water was cold, but you qucikly warmed up; the weather isn't the fault of the hotel owners, and to be fair, they do tell you that they only heat the pool in certain months of the year. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at the Green Golf, and would recommend it to anyone seeking a quiet, relaxed break in the sun.

Lovely apartments, very clean and well equipped. Complex also clean and very well maintained with lovely garden areas. Pools lovely and plenty of sunbeds available. Bar staff work very hard and are very friendly and efficient. Well stocked shop which is useful and only a five min walk to Faro 2 shopping centre where there are lots of lovely restaurants. Playa des Ingles close - only couple of euros in taxi. Would recommend going camel riding - lovely way to see the beautiful sand dunes!! Just a word of warning - keep windows and doors shut and locked at night - couple of break ins when i was there
