Fuerteventura Forum

Hi me and my boyfriend are arriving at the broncemar beach on the 30th Jan, Ive read some negative reviews on other sites but the general feel I got was that its a spacious friendly hotel.

Has anyone else been recently?

Thanks

Hi, depends on what you like. Some friends of our absolutely love the place. Loads to do day and night, but also as you are in the town you have loads of other places to go. It is big, and the apartments are clean and spacious. I think the tv has coin slots, you can check that one. But hey who needs telly on holiday! Anyway I am sure you will enjoy it, wish we were going soon, we have to wait till June. Have a great time and remember when its windy dont think you cant get burnt. My step-daughter last year nearly got sunstroke. I did warn her, but she thought because it was windy she was fine. Put sun cream on every time.

Thank you for your reply!! Im just really looking forward to a break!!! We saw the bargain holiday price back in september and couldnt resist!!! This forum is so useful and appreciated, it is making me more excited!!!

Does anyone know if the apartments have recently been fitted out with air conditioning? Thomas Cook brochure says No air con - Broncemars' website lists Air con

Thinking of bringing fans, if no air con in hotel, but if aircon is there, no fans required?

have also emailed the apartments direct and await reply,

Cheers

20 days and counting!!

"WE HAVE AIR CONDITIONING ONLY IN COMUM AREAS, NOT IN "NORMAL" ROOMS (THAT YOU BUY WITH THOMAS COOK). BUT WE DO HAVE AIR CONDITIONING IN SOME SPECIAL ROOMS; TO UPGRADE TO THIS, YOU MUST PAY EXTRA 20 EUROS A DAY WHEN YOU ARRIVE, IF YOU WANT. THIS SPECIAL ROOMS HAVE CAPACITY FOR MAXIMUM 3 PERSONS, A DOUBLE BED, AIR CONDITIONING, FREE SATELITE TV (PLASMA, BIG SCREEN). BETTER IF YOU BOOK IT SENDING ME ANOTHER E-MAIL. THANK YOU"

Looks like we'll be taking fans then!! 280 Euros for cold air!!!!

The problem with air-conditioning is that it feels 'VERY HOT' when you go out into the real world!!! It's better to adjust to the heat rather than trying to create an artificial climate.

Bloody air conditioning.

You move somewhere hot because you can't cope with the cold and some clown sets up a bloody big fridge unit.
