fritzthecat Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 yeah iv seen that on the web and it looks great,i will definately be visiting there. kids will be 7 and 4 at the time we go so i think they will quite like it... Same age as mine, so they will love it, 1 bit of caution tho, when they give you the gravel, dont give it to your 4 year old, its VERY hot!!!, and when they tip water down the hole, count to between 2 and 3 and then take a pic :hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happylady Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 We love Puerto Del Carmen. It is a bit Blackpool like in the main strip but we stay in the new town where its really nice. The harbour in the old town is lovely and has some good restaurants. Playa Blanca is lovely but is a bit too quiet for me to stay in but we don't have to take our kids with us now and like it a bit more lively. Stayed at Costa Teguise once but didn't rate it, too quiet and not much to do, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
