Cay Sun Beach Apartments

I stayed at the apartments at the beginning of Aug with a friend. We booked a fortnight before and I was worried about what it'd end up like! When we arrived I was really pleased. Lovely little apartment. The mini market stays open late on the nights they have new arivals. I'd heard the mini market was expensive but after going to the neto and spar nearby it was roughly same price. Cafe/Bar does tidy cheap food. Loads of restaraunts in Playa Blanca and Rubicon Marina. It was a quiet resort. Loads of places to eat, some bars but not the place for slammin it kickin it by any means. If you're after a chill out holiday with lots of sun this is the place to be! I loved it!

We stayed at Cay Beach Appartments as a last minute holiday in March 2008 and after reading the review by Tiffany we were aprehensive to say the least. However, we were very pleasantly suprised. The rooms were spotless and very comfortable for a weeks stay. The staff were friendly and very helpful. we did not eat on site, althiugh the food from the snack bar always smelled delicious, but there were numerous good reasonably priced restaurants within walking distance. We can reccommend Los herbivores ( I think thats the spelling) which is in a side street and it is best to book, for typical Canarian food alongside International style choices. A word of warning about the resort - only buy electrical equipment of you know what you are after - don't be conned by electrical shop salespeople. All in all a fanastic stay

We loved Sun Beach apartments when we stayed there as a couple of footloose and fancy free sun lovers, four years ago. So when we were looking for somewhere to go for a week in March with two children aged 1 year and two and a half, it was our first choice. (Of the four other young families we met there, two had been to Sun Beach before as well.)It appeals to absolutely everyone. It's the kind of place where the kids are made to feel welcome, but don't take over the whole holiday. Most of the restaurants in the resort are kiddie friendly too.
Since we were last there, nothing has really changed. As a result, some of the furnishings etc could do with updating, but it's immaculately clean, and the staff are all great. Our cleaner came every day and would have changed towels and bedding every day if we let her. She was also happy to come back if the baby was asleep. We can't wait to go back again next year.

We have just returned from our 2nd stay at the Apartomentos Cay Sun Beach at Playa Blanca (our first stay last year). Once again, we found the accommodation to be comfortable (not luxurious), but more than adequate for our stay on a self catering basis. We did not use the food facilities on site, but were told by other hotel users that these were good. The hotel staff were very polite, helpful and efficient (as was the case last year). There is a small supermarket on site, but this shut for about 3 hours over the lunchtime period! The 3 pools (2 adult and 1 child) were always clean, but a little cold when first getting in, but very cooling in the hot sun! Not much evening entertainment (if you are into that sort of thing), but there is kids club. The hotel caters very well for all ages, singles, couples and families. The hotel is located about 10-15 minutes walk from the town centre and beach. The town centre itself is geared up to the tourist trade with plenty of souvenir, jewellery and perfume shops (good prices) as well as 2 good sized supermarkets (great for self caterers). Centre quite busy, but never felt overcrowded. Most of the shops stay open until 10pm. There are a lot of restaurants overlooking the harbour (which makes for great "alfresco" eating), mainly Italian, but with a couple of Chinese restaurants and 2 or 3 English style pubs, so good choice is available (over our week stay, we ate in 5 restaurants). The food was of very good quality, served quickly and plenty of it - normal price for 3 course meal for 2 about £25.00!! Beaches were clean (nice sand) and water was clear and warm. Overall, another very enjoyable holiday and we would have no hesitation in recommending the hotel or the resort to anyone looking for a relaxing and quieter holiday. This is the first time we have not done a package deal with a travel agent, but no problems whatsoever with our booking - thank you Alpha Rooms for another great holiday.
