“Perfect relaxing holiday”

Brilliant, relaxing and peaceful place. No loud music. No pool games. Just perfect chilling. Bungalows are so private with own sun beds. Full kitchen facilities if required.

Having not had a holiday in a long time we were looking for somewhere quiet to relax and this place did not disappoint! It’s on the outskirts of main Playa Blanca but within easy reach of the popular areas, marina etc. We booked all inclusive and arrived too late for dinner, however they kindly left a selection of buffet foods in our bungalow. Breakfast was fantastic and you could order a freshly made omelette in addition to the full buffet breakfast. Dinner buffet in the evening catered for all tastes along with a choice each night of 5 different freshly cooked meals. Drinks and cocktails were all great. Staff are lovely, friendly and helpful and work incredibly hard making sure you have a good experience. Bungalows are spacious and clean, with two bedrooms (double and twin) each with their own bathroom. Views were spectacular from where we were. Pool is clean (if a little cold at first!) never an issue getting subbed for the 4 of us whatever time of day. Pool bar was open 11am to 11pm with a great selection of drinks. If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing holiday where it’s not too busy then I would highly recommend the Bocayna Village. Would definitely return if we were to visit Playa Blanca again.

On arrival we were disappointed Our Jet2 coach transfer dropped us on the road where it was impossible to see the exactly where the hotel entrance was - upon asking he pointed to the steps which my husband had to drag our cases up Reception was nice but hot and needs air conditioning We saw 3 reception staff during our holiday and sadly 2 were lazy and unhelpful and any question was met with the answer “it’s not possible “ however Winnie was super helpful and made everything possible - without her this review would be quite negative The total is nice and quiet but is in need of some TLC which I understand is happening as some other appts have been updated We did have a few issues with some things but as before Winnie was absolutely fabulous!!!!! We stayed B&B - breakfast is OK but we started to give it a miss after a few days as it was just so repetitive You can walk to the Marina to n about 30 minutes but really need a taxi anywhere else If you want to relax in peace and quiet this is a nice enough place but with investment it could be do much better - maybe consider a small shop in reception for water and croissants etc - they really are missing a trick there

We got off to bad start when the bus driver of JET2 coach dropped us on main road instead of taking us to the ‘drive through’ parking area, we pulled our luggage in semi darkness (22.30 hours) up steep incline and down to reception…..receptionist gave us map with bungalow number and we were left to pull cases in semi darkness up and along to find our bungalow Bungalow comfortable and spacious, air con vg (no need for room fans), and bonus with spacious private terrace with views and several seating options. pleasing Canarian ‘garden’ environment, and quiet ..peaceful . Food varied and appetising (becomes repetitive if there for a stay of 7 plus days), enjoyed langostines and prawns on two nights…. friendly staff. Super fresh omelettes cooked to order in the morning. All inclusive house wine served by glass or bottle in restaurant was of good quality, mild and fruity. We didn’t use Pool Bar as expensive charges for international spirits….local spirits tried once, poor quality. 30 Bus is just around the corner, and great service every half hour, and great value to centre of resort, but taxis also inexpensive (3.50 Euros to Marina) and arrive quickly when booked by reception. With help from Winnie in reception, we enjoyed short travel to Teguise, the historical former capital, via Arrecife, easy connections, inexpensive in quality buses, and also bus to Yaiza, lovely village cum town to walk around, and just 15 minutes by bus. Avoid Teguise on Sunday market, Rubicon Marina market is just very pleasant with lots of quality stalls. Visit the former capital on quiet day. Fav restaurant at Marina is Likein - appetising locally caught shrimps and mussels, and superb fillet steak (just 24 euros!!) This hotel suitable for couples like us looking for spacious private accommodation in warm, friendly, peaceful environment with good food As senior citizens we asked for, and were given, bungalow on first level close to reception and restaurant The friendly JET2 driver for our return collected us next to reception, and was very helpful and more than made up for the less than helpful driver who dumped us on main road on dark night.
