Brenas Garden

Stayed in a large family apartment with small terrace in the nice garden. Basic but clean and “authentic look-alike Canarian style”. Dropping toilet paper in the WC was not allowed which was annoying. Wifi only in reception area. Restaurant and pool area were closed during our stay. Friendly service at the reception with rather short opening hours. Free parking. Brena Baja is a quiet residential area. Not much to see but only 15 min drive to interesting and lively Santa Cruz.

Despite one or two criticisms from other visitors online,. we enjoyed our stay here. The reception was warm and welcoming, the apartment with sea views was comfortable and clean and it would be churlish to fault it. The meals we had i.e. breakfast and evening meal were simple (buffet style) and friendly service 15 euros each for the evening meal was good value. My only criticism would be that the hot plate did not keep the food hot for long enough, Small thing however. Overall GOOD.

We arrived, recepcionist was nice and we headed to the apartment, which was dated and dirty , holes on the walls, stains, etc....the cutting board in the kitchen was disgusting! Very dissapointed, I spoke with the lady in the office which showed me 2 other apartments only to find out they were in the same sad condition. The free wifi works only in the reception area..
