I had a very enjoyable stay at the Jardin del Atlantico - Carolann Melrose. Date of travel: Feb 2008
My boyfriend and I have just returned from a weeks holiday where we stayed at the Jardin del Atlantico, our stay here was an enjoyable experience we where situated right across from the Irish centre, being Feb the noise wasn't that bad but if visiting in high season it may be a bit loud. The rooms where basic but very clean and in a central location for the beach, Yumbo centre and the Kasbah centre. Would definitely return. Love from Carolann and John x

I could bore you to death with this report, just don't do the Jardin del Atlantico unless you have to. Food is poor and cold, take the rear rooms, they're a quieter. The front building rooms are facing the Irish Centre (of wich is all owned by the same Spanish guy) and you won't get no sleep until you get down the beach! Don't go all inclusive, it's a joke and the hotel fills up with Spanish youths who do what they want all weekend.

Earplugs a must! - A. Granville. Date of travel: Jul 2005
The Jardin del Atlantico apartments are in such a good location - close to the beaches and shops etc, but a downside is the fact that it is so incredibly noisy and everyone tries to get their apartment as far away from the front of the block as possible. Of course Playa del Ingles is about the partying as well as the beaches but if you are planning on sleeping, then earplugs are a good idea because it is smack in the middle of a bunch of Irish pubs. Next time we'd probably stay somewhere less central for a bit more sleep, but the rooms were good and cleaned properly and the kids loved the playground. We did hear some other guests grumbling that the German visitors were better looked after but we didnt see that ourselves so who knows. We had fun though, despite the sleep deprivation, and really enjoyed our stay.
