HG Lomo Blanco

I’ve just returned from the Lomo Blanco stayed in room 309 in Block B. Lovely well kept apartments very clean and reception staff were really helpful. Block B pool is a lot quieter than the main one making it a great place to chill out in the sun. The snack bar was reasonably priced. We had a problem with the electric one day which was reported and the problem was dealt with quickly. The beds are comfy which makes a difference there’s a microwave and small 2 ring job in the kitchen as well as a kettle and toaster. Reception will call taxis if you need one. The hotel is near a couple of supermarkets which is handy. You do have to walk down a steep hill or steps to get to the strip but we didn’t find that a problem, I’ve booked to go back in April and I’m looking forward to it. As long as your realistic with your expectations you won’t be disappointed.

We stayed in Room 306 and loved it. The room was adequate with fresh towels most days and the beds were changed twice. It was my 50th birthday whilst there and they left me A Happy birthday note with a bottle of wine. We were just outside the small pool which was great albeit a little cold. We found all staff friendly and helpful and would certainly return. The only thing I would say is to bring or buy some dishwashing detergent and a cloth or sponge as a dish towel is provided but nothing to wash dishes. We just bought a couple of bits from lidl which was about a 10 min walk away. All places were easy to reach and only took about 10 minutes max to reach. All in all an enjoyable stay.

We booked with Jet2 & have just come back from these apartments. Initial reaction was good, nice reception area & reception staff. Pool area very clean, looked good as we walked to Block B. Our apartment was on top floor in Block B. It was extremely gusty winds so high up but we battled through it to open our apartment door. Have to say what a disappointment when we saw our apartment. Obviously needed total refurbishment, was not very clean, furniture shabby, fridge rusty, kettle leaked, shower area grimy & shower caddy rusty, cracks in bathroom sink. The bedroom side lights didn't work. The floor felt dusty under foot. We felt like we had the scragg end. We are not ones to complain, we had booked only a few weeks before due to the collapse of Thomas Cook (where we had booked other apartments Lanzarote Palm for £250 cheaper). Have to say we were very upset. The towels were only changed once & they were very thin & fraying, the tea towel was never changed. Bins were emptied every other day. Bed linen not changed at all. The skirtngs were filthy. The cupboards were dirty inside, we felt we had to wash these & all crockery, pans & cutlery. The toilet wasnt clean in the pan. The laminate floors were never cleaned. Dusty stained shabby furniture. Basically our apartment wasnt cleaned. But we made the best of it. We went to the pool area. Watching the older Lifeguard he was very strict with holidaymakers, constantly staring at people which we found a bit strange as if waiting for someone to do something wrong so he could pounce or asking them to remove their footwear if on the sunbeds even if on their own towel! We are happy to follow apartment rules however and didn't have any problems with these. On the up side the bar staff were lovely & friendly. I think the apartments on the ground floors were probably refurbished as looked 100% better than ours. We wont be going back to Lomo Blanco Apartments. The apartments were in a quiet area ideal for the old town which we visited daily, but would not recommend for older people as apartments are located high up in the resort, unless a taxi is used.
