This was supposed to be a special time for us due to a family celebration but this was the worst place for it. On arrival we were initially pleased because the weather was beautiful and to the unaccustomed eye (and thanks to a few airplane/airport drinks) the complex looked lovely. Once sobered up though the pool was filthy, the apartments were scruffy, the staff were the rudest most ignorant people I'd come across and the food was sheer torture!
Not once in the whole stay did we spot anyone clean the pool or the poolside. Rubbish from guests just lay around for days if they didn't clear up themselves. Towels were only changed for clean ones if requested. The food selection was appalling and the standard was one that if inspected would have the place closed down. I spotted mould on the vegetables and the fruit was inedible due to its age. The hot food was cold (even when you were the first diners in the room) and had to be reheated by yourself in the microwave in the corner of the restaurant. Most of it was unidentifiable! Even the staff were unable to tell you what it was! If it wasn't eaten at that course though, don't worry, it would be brought back out again, and again, and again until it had been eaten! Don't be the last diners though because whilst they say they serve until such and such time they will clear everything away at least 10 minutes before then whilst there were still diners trying to make the most of a terrible job. The complex became nicknamed 'Diet Camp' by our fellow travellers and was quite apt in that because the food was so bad I actually lost weight this week!
Whatever you do, do not eat the snacks!
The bar closed early on a regular basis forcing early bedtimes and is very very overpriced.
How to make the most of this holiday? - USE THE COMPLEX NEXTDOOR! lovely food, clean pools, friendly staff and drinks served in chilled glasses for a reasonable price.
The only person I would ever recommend Parque Golf to would be my ex-husband!!!

I guess u could say it was value for money. I'm all for a fair honest opinion on a hotel/surroundings and being Cabin Crew I've stayed in quite a few but you do get what you pay for.
Wanted a cheapish week in the sun and found this one through Co-op travel care.
The surroundings were very nice, the pool wasn't heated so it was freezing but the pool area was tidy, clean and quiet each day, so no problems getting a sun bed which are free..
The shop only opened half of the day and not on Sunday's when we arrived so that let it down a bit.
The accommodation is very basic and could benefit from a refurb.
There is everything u need in the cupboards, shower in the bathroom was rubbish and the hot water ran out after 5 mins each! U have to pay for the TV too which although you don't really need, sometimes it's handy.
Reception staff were friendly enough and helpful .
.
Location wise it's about a 30-40min walk in to Maspalomas, easy enough & Taxi's were waiting at the end of the driveway to the hotel and only around 4 euro's.

If you don't mind basic accommodation and want nice surroundings in a quiet location this is the place for you.
If they refurbished the bungalow's then this place would be a lot better..

Had to write a review as I was nervous about coming here after reading other reviews and was even considering changing hotels. I was so glad I didn’t, as this place was great for what we wanted.
It was perfect for what we wanted, just a base to stay and somewhere to sunbathe in the days. It was a bargain and when I booked it I didn't realise it was just one star, otherwise I probably wouldn’t have bothered but it could easily be higher than a 1 star and with the odd lick of paint and attention to detail it could be so much more.
I stayed in a 3 star apartment (Lenaki in Crete) and this was filthy and dirty (Thomson don't seem to cite the negative reviews on their site, but I know they exist as I wrote one and most customers who were there when I was weren't at all happy!), the Parque Golf was a 5 star in comparison!
The bungalow consisted of a living room (where sofas could be used as beds- I wouldn't fancy this and more than 2 persons per bungalow would be cramped I think), a kitchen area that we didn't use. A kettle, 2 hobs and fridge are supplied, oddly enough you have to hire toaster. The bedroom was large enough with two comfy single beds and the bathroom consisted of a shower over the bath (no plug for bath though but think this was because there was not enough hot water). I was lucky enough to get in shower first and after 10-15mins it ran cold so for a family or for more than two that could be a nightmare. As for cockroaches, I didn't see one in the apartment! After reading previous reviews I was a bit petrified and looked for them all the time but didn't see one. We sprayed the threshold of the door with the potent looking bug spray supplied under the sink so maybe that helped.
In fact, my family who stayed in a 4 star Thomson property up the road saw one or two and one even managed to get inside my brothers fridge!
Pool looked nice but was very cold. Smaller pool could have done with a clean and there was another pool, which was out of order, but on the whole it was nice to sit around and sunbathe. Unlike other hotels nearby, the pool is sunken in so there is less wind which is good for sunbathing.
It is a small walk to Faro 2 shopping centre and Playa Del Ingles and Meloneras are only a short, cheap taxi ride away. There are no bars around the immediate area.
I had a great stay in this place though, I have to say, I didn't eat there after reading previous reviews of the food and this wasn't our main holiday. If we had gone for an all-inclusive deal and planned to stay there all day I would have been disappointed. But if like us, you want a last minute break away somewhere clean and peaceful that can be used as a base and for lazy days by pool, I'd say you could do a lot worse. I even took my own bedding here as was so worried about it being dirty but it was far from it. The maid would spend ages cleaning rooms and towels were frequently changes etc. For a cheapie holiday in the sun- I thought it was great and was very pleasantly surprised!
El Gaucho in Playa does a great meal and Michelangelo’s in Faro 2 is very good!!

From the outside the bungalows,gardens and walkways look great but inside the reception,dining area and bungalows the decor looked very tired and about 25 years overdue for a lick of paint. The pool was cleaned daily and looked very inviting, the staff were mostly friendly and helpful and the bungalows were kept nice and clean. The big dissapointment was the food, it was RUBBISH and quite honestly disgusting,it was poor quailty food badly cooked and poorly presented you need to jump in a taxi and go into town to eat or pop next door in the Duna Beach and pay and eat in their restaurant which by the way was cooked to order from a menu (bad luck if you go all inclusive like we did).

PS. Be prepared to make your own entertainment.
