“Beautiful, Tranquil and Relaxing”

8 nights of mid-September sun for us both, armed with several good books, a dedicated Spotify playlist and a quiz of Puzzler magazines! We chose a 1 bedroom room with terrace (no. 13).

8 nights of mid-September sun for us both, armed with several good books, a dedicated Spotify playlist and a quiz of Puzzler magazines! We chose a 1 bedroom room with terrace (no. 13). The sun was blocked from this particular room's terrace by a large palm tree so we did our sunbathing in the pool area where the were plentiful sun loungers. No issue! The pool was really clean with gradual stepped access and was warm! There was a pool bar but with supermarket and room so nearby to easily self cater we didn't experience this facility nor any others in the main Eden hotel. Both sunloungers and table & chairs were allocated on our terrace with a handy wet clothing drying rack. Inside the apartment, the hotel photos are accurate with basic yet high quality furniture complimenting a clean and spacious living room & kitchen area with separate bathroom and bedroom. The kitchen had a good sized fridge along with necesseties to self cater. The bathroom had wet room style shower and large sink area. The bedroom had ample wardrobe shelving and hanging space. It was a pleasure to sit out each evening on the terrace and enjoy the cool breeze and the sunset! The location is set up at the top of the hill above Puerto Rico and Amadores. Quite stunning if you seek out those viewing spots overlooking Puerto Rico and the surrounding area - not so good for the vertigo! We like walking and honestly the journey to walk down to and back up from Puerto Rico was quite testing in 28 degrees. For an alternative to walking and no hire car, Las Buganvillas was opposite to a taxi rank servicing the Europa Shopping Centre (directly outside the gated entrance of the apartments). Also easy to describe to the driver where you wanted to return to! The shopping centre across the road from the apartments has two supermarkets (with lovely fresh bread and fruit), various restaurants and bars. We enjoyed really great food and drink at reasonable prices. Two BIG screens for those not wanting to miss a match! It is notable that whilst the entertainment would continue there deep into the night, the centre was set lower into the hillside and we did not hear any noise carried from the Europa during our stay. We would recommend the scenic coastal walk into Puerto Rico. We also had a day on the sun loungers (€7) set on the harbour surround and enjoyed the sea swim in the enclosed area leading to the beach. So many fishes in the clear water! We also indulged in a few trips to Mogan Mall to enjoy the shops, restaurants (highly recommend the Selvatico in the market complex opposite for an elevated view, delicious food and a wonderful sunset vista!) and mall fountain show. We researched a little to know more about these apartments. We understand the naming is with the beautiful flower that is planted around the apartment complex along with various scattered palm trees to bring a natural and welcoming feel. Our criteria for a break is quite particular. I am happy (just short of smug) to have selected another excellent holiday accommodation set just far enough away and just close enough to what was needed for this sunshine break with minimum hassle and maximum relaxation. We will be back, Thank You Team Las Buganvillas!

“Good but will not be returning”

Really well kept apartments and complex. Small, relaxed and spotless. Staff work extremely hard to keep the pool area, gardens and apartments in tip top condition. If like we do, you alternate between an activity day and a pool day then this is a great base for exploring. Has a small Dino express by the main reception. Checking in make sure you go to the Eden reception desk and don't let your driver drop you outside buganvillas opposite the Europa. Just be aware that they are very close to the Europa with the local drug dealers who stand at the top of the stairs using the footpath at the side of the apartments as their stash area. This is such a shame as Las buganvillas for us was a decent standard but the blatant drug dealing means we will not be returning.

“Clean and quiet”

The apartments are clean and spacious. The kitchen area is very small so can be a bit cramped but every utensil is supplied.

The apartments are clean and spacious. The kitchen area is very small so can be a bit cramped but every utensil is supplied. The pool and grounds are kept spotlessly clean and it is lovely and quiet being adults only. It is quite far up the hill and although the walk down is ok, the walk back up is a killer 1,600 stairs down and the same again back up. There is only the Europa centre across the street to eat which is ok but nothing authentic to eat so we chose to walk down into Puerto Rico and get a taxi back up which varied between 5-7.50 euro. I've taken one star off because we were on the ground floor (room 17)so no sea view and lacked any privacy. There are 36 apartments 1-18 ground floor and 19-36 upper floor. All in all a lovely complex and if it was further down the hill and we had an upstairs apartment we would stay again
