A solid 3 star hotel, nothing more. There is no air conditioning. Cleaning every 3 days.
The main thing to pay attention to. During your stay you will be offered to buy a timeshare in this hotel (the right to own 1-2 weeks a year). Prices are approximately the following: 10 thousand euros for a studio (T0), 25 thousand euros for an apartment in one living room and bedroom (T1). I strongly advise you not to buy a timeshare there due to the following arguments:
- on about. Tenerife is enough to simply rent an apartment for a week with a quality better than the Flamingo Club: with a parking space, air conditioning, high-speed internet, etc. at a price of about 500 euros. The price that you will be told - 1.300, 00 euros per week in the Flamingo Club is absolutely inadequate; for example, see this site http://www. holidaylettings. co. uk/playa-de-las-americas/

- the cost of real estate on the 1st line on about. Tenerife is about 2 thousand euros / sq. m. m. That is, the T1 apartment will cost about 100 thousand rubles.
euro with the right to use 365 days a year, respectively, four friends can “share” for the same 25 thousand euros and buy apartments for the whole year (each for 3 months, not 2 weeks);
- hotel managers will tell you that by purchasing a timeshare, you will be able to exchange weeks in Flamingo Club for weeks of accommodation in other apartments around the world thanks to the Interval International exchange system, however, I draw your attention to the fact that, firstly, this exchange will be for you cost from 100 euros, and secondly, there are not many places in this system. At the same time, it should be noted that the ownership of the apartment also gives you the opportunity to exchange them for an equivalent apartment in different countries (see www. homeexchange. com, http://www. guardianhomeexchange. co. uk/, http://www. homelink . org. uk/, http://www. lovehomeswap. com/, http://www. homebase-hols. com/), respectively, by purchasing apartments with full ownership (365 days a year) with friends, it will also be possible to traveling the world exchanging them is even better and cheaper.
- during the presentation there will be a lot of false information, for example, you will be told about the possibility of exchanging weeks at the Flamingo Club for weeks at Burj Al Arab, or for cruises in the most expensive liners, about the annual increase in the cost of a timeshare by 7% per annum, about the absence problems with the subsequent sale of the timeshare, etc. - all this is not true: there is no increase in the cost, and in the event of a timeshare sale, you will have to pay significant commissions.

Write down the phone number of the embassy of your country in advance, and if the hotel staff starts threatening you with eviction, heavy fines, deportation, etc. , if you suddenly refuse to buy, call the police and call the embassy.
