Mannix Apartments

Just returned from a week at the Mannix. Lovely clean, modern apartments. We had an inside room so no view or balcony but we knew this before we went, so it wasn't a problem. Small kitchen, adequate for breakfast and lunch but we mostly ate out anyway. Bathrooms are nice and the shower was excellent. Flat screen TV with the 4 main English channels. Safe boxes located in the main foyer and 5 Euro for the week. The staff/owners are friendly and helpful. The Beach is 2-3 minutes walk and is a beautifully clean beach with great facilities. Lots of bars and restaurants along the beach, without any tacky shops selling cheap souvenirs and nobody harassing you to eat in their restaurants. The only thing that stops me giving it a 5 is that there is no A/C. Not too bad for us in September but not sure I could cope in July/August. There is a fan provided. I would definitely stay at the Mannix again if I ever go back to the island. Overall a very enjoyable week.

Lovely clean apartments bit on small side tho but everything you could need.Rooms are cleaned daily to a high standard only negative is no air con tho fans are supplied.Excellently positioned within 5 mins of beach and restaurants.English isn't widely spoken so did struggle few timesExcursions are limited from Las palmas if that's what you're interested in then maspalmas is the place to go

We’ve just stayed for 7 nights in Mannix. Lovely staff. The gentleman on the front desk has provided my daughter with amusement every morning and evening. The apartments are cleaned every day and the cleaners are trustworthy and friendly, organising my daughters teddies on the bed every day. Clean towels every day. Utensils provided for cooking and full size fridge for groceries with a small freezer within the fridge. Showers are excellent which is a must for me, it’s as good as it is at home. Balconies are small, but it’s okay to sit and have a few drinks in the evening for two. If space would allow, it would be nice to have a dining table. Overall I would say for a self catering apartment, at a reasonable price, you couldn’t ask for better staff or cleanliness. We’ve loved our stay and for anyone complaining about the lack of facilities, you could either spend a lot more or spend less time in the room, after all, you should send more time out and about than you should in the room. The beach down the road las Canteras is a nice beach, but you’ll find that if you have young children, the waves can be a bit rough and also we’ve had jellyfish warnings on the beach all week. Hire a car before you travel, we paid 130gbp with no excess for a week for a hire car. Good parking at Thomas Miller car park around the corner 55 Euro’s for the entire week. That way you can travel to the quieter beaches of Puerto Rico and playa de mogan. Petrol cheap at 1 Euro per litre. If you’re looking for a cheap stay, but willing to travel, this is ideal, we’ve had an excellent holiday! If you struggle for ideas the reception desk are very knowledgable and advise you where to go!
