We spent 11 nights here in August on our family holiday - 2 adults, a 17 year old and a 12 year old. We have been to las Americas many times and really like it, it is the first time that we have stayed here. There was a mixed nationality of german, dutch and english and lots of children which is to be expected in August!! The complex is excellently located and the nearby amenities and beaches fabulous.
We had a 2 bedroomed bungalow and it was really lovely. Spacious, clean, well equipped with a little terrace. The complex was really clean, well laid out and a really nice place to be. All of the staff were lovely. We had booked self catering but did upgrade to A.I for part of our stay. This was really good. We wouldn't want to do a whole holiday A.I as we like to go to the beach, take trips and eat out - but equally, we enjoy a few pool days so it was great to have the flexibility. It was 100 euros per day to upgrade (minimum 3 days) which we thought was excellent value for 4 of us to have food, drinks, snacks and ice cream unlimited all day!! The food was great and we had no complaints what so ever. There are different dining themes daily and even a big poolside BBQ!
There was entertainment - mostly aimed at kids and a great little pool party each day. Entertainment was multi lingual and to be honest we weren't around for the mini disco in the evening as our children are a little to old for that these days!!
The pools are lovely and we enjoyed our pool days and time in the resort very much. But, and this is my only complaint - the sun bed situation. We had to be up and reserving our sun beds by at least 6.30am every morning that we wanted to have a day by the pool. Most days we were there by six and not once were we the first!! Come 7am most beds are reserved with only the odd one between groups and by 8am you don't stand a chance. There aren't any grassy area's or additional pool side space for towels, so if you miss the sun bed rush you've had it. This did spoil it for us as the pools and resort where so lovely but, frankly we didn't want to have to do that!! The pools were busy every day and it was peak season but ..... I wouldn't go back here in peak season purely because I don't care where around the pool I sit, but I don't want to have to be up at the crack of dawn just to ensure that there is a space for us!!
Other than that, I would highly, highly recommend this resort to any family. We really did have a wonderful holiday!!
Room Tip: We asked for a room close to the pools but all of the room locations are good!
