Good price but most guests on all inclusive and making the most of inclusive alcohol. Lots of groups. Pool was rammed, never managed to get a space so went out every day. Cooking facilities and equip very limited. Staff ver nice, helpful and polite. Rarely cleaned tables in bar and pool bar. Would I stay again, probably not

This is a very basic hotel with nothing good about it at all. Very rough and feels very dated. The food was absolutely terrible, there were flies flying all over the salad bar. Beds hard as rock and very uncomfortable. I’d give it one star. Don’t waste your money.

Blue Sea Costa Teguise Gardens is a solid 3/5 stars. The food is basic at best, often below satisfactory. The rooms lack Air Conditioning, there was no iron or ironing board (you had to pay), and the sofa in the apartment was poor. The balcony was ok. The all inclusive drinks aspect was good. The staff were polite. Communication was not always good as there is a coach to teguise market on sunday but this was not comminicated to us and instead was just on an A4 poster on the wall so easily missable. I would come here again but i wouldnt eat here in future.

The staff was helpful, good variety of food options, and the bed was comfortable, no air conditioning, only a ceiling fan, managed to create a draft through the apartment with a window and door, and went in Sept. Mainly used as a base. Stayed for 5 nights but booked 6 as the flight was a late one. I was a little concerned when reading the reviews, but you not going to please everyone, I had no issues.

Cockroaches found in room several times and in the bar. Very loud guests, seemed to be a mainly welsh contingent while we stayed and very few other nationalities present. Food was good but certainly wouldn’t stay again as stayed in much better places near by.

Lovely pool and very clean rooms. The staff were friendly and the entertainment staff were friendly and funny. The food was hit and miss, as some times it was great and others it wasn't. The food was not always warm, which was frustrating. Entertainment was standard and nothing special but entertainment staff were lovely . Couldn't understand why the hotel could not purchase pens to play bingo with as they only provided guests with cocktail sticks. The hotel was under going refurbishment and the sofas that were placed outside rooms made the place look unsightly and was an eye sore. This could have been more carefully planned and prepared. Overall an ok stay for a cheap get away and we did have a lovely time. You get what you pay for, but I'm not sure I can honestly say I would want to stay again. Although as I said for what we paid we did have a nice time.

Aparthotel within 20min walk to good beach
The apartment was comfortable and spacious enough for me. I like to have cooking facilities when I’m away, but could have done with more cookware. The room’s terrace was good and the pool area was pleasant. Hotel staff were really friendly and breakfast even had stuff that vegans can eat. The apartments are about 20min walk from the beaches and from the main shops, restaurants etc. There are other shops close by though.

Far from most things
If you want cheap drink and noisy guests, this is for you. Hotel staff helpful and cheap taxi's are with you in a minute or two. Everything costs extra, WI-Fi in room, kettle etc but there were cooking facilities and cutlery. A double means two beds pushed together. Breakfast was mediocre and unimaginative and fellow guests who had full board were not impressed.

Teguise Gardens, couple week break
I would recommend a few improvements to the owners of the hotel, first is have a shop on site as nearest shop is a walk away. We needed to buy towels as we like to pack light. The hotel could make money from the shop instead of charging hire for a kettle. The town is a good 15-20 min walk. More sun beds as my wife and I had to make do with a space on the ground as there was no beds and no seats available at bar (Clear one of the garden areas for beds). rooms need moped not just brushed. Instal a/c as fans don’t cool warm air they just move it around the bed room. Food is not very exciting but eatable.

Young Adults, please do not book
So 5 girls including myself recently just returned from Lanzarote. I would not recommend this hotel for these reasons: 1. Bad Location (Very far from the good clubs, restaurants) 2. After 11 pm there is no food to eat, no take away, no supermarkets are open 3. Hotel food is very crap, we spent £300 per person even though we were all inclusive. They reuse the same food each night and make a different dish out of it, there was constantly hair in my food, drinks were boring, restaurant staff were horrible, dessert was same every day, all we ate was chips as that was the only fresh thing. Breakfast was disgusting, all foods were terrible and out of date. Eggs stank strange, baked beans were watery, only the pastries were delicious. 4. Burger and hot dog by the pool were not edible, some of us were not able to eat it as it was only PORK burgers. Chips was horrible by the pool, they didn't cook it for long 5. Hotel is full of elderly people, no young adults! They were so grumpy 6. Puerto Del Carmen or Playa Blanca, are the best areas to go, not Costa Teguise !!!!!!

Nice, spacious room.
The hotel is a bit out from the centre. It takes about 15 mins to walk in. The room was nice and spacious. WiFi was free in reception but in the rest of the hotel it cost €7 a day or €15 for three, which seems quite expensive. There was a TV but most of the channels were pay for view only. I arrived on a Sunday and left the following Saturday. For some reason, my room was only cleaned on the Wednesday and the Thursday. I have no idea why. Breakfast was buffet and was good, though the coffee wouldn't win any awards. I was on a B&B basis, so didn't eat any other meals there.

Sorry this Hotel is not for us!!! Disapointing
Very disappointing. Staff good and hotel was quite clean. The rest was pretty basic and very tired. Needs total overall. Access to apartments was difficult and very badly lit. Bed no mattress protector...rock hard and pillow like a stone. Cigarette burns on furniture. Broken tiles, fan broken, no hair dryer in the room. Hotel a long way out from main area. Luckily only one night here! Sorry not for us. Feel sorry for people booking a long saved for holiday. They tried to charge us 20 euros each for supper too!! Breakfast was fine.

Did not get what we booked
We booked this 3 star hotel and upon arrival we were immediately told we were being moved to their sister hotel the blue sea beach. We were not told why but were assured the hotels were identical except the location. We found out later that the blue sea beach is in fact only 2 star and found we were not the only guests to have been moved. The food here is almost identical every day and is very poor quality, the staff all look fed up most of the time but the hotel entertainment rep was doing his best. Only the beach bar was open for the whole of our stay, the lounge bar was never opened even when it rained during a couple of days. The rooms are out of date but were a fairly good size. The sofa bed in our room was so uncomfortable that we actually brought a sun lounger into the room to sleep on instead. The maids only came into our room to change the beds and towels once during the week and only gave us 2 lots of everything when there were 3 of us, when we went to request more the receptionist did not even know where to find them! Overall this hotel is probably better located than the blue sea gardens but the fact remains we paid for a 3 star hotel and got 2 star, and it was a pointless argument with the hotel to get any kind of money back.

We paid for WiFi but the connection was not really good. Bed was extremely uncomfortable. The staff was not very helpful. The food in the restaurant was good with quite some variety. There is no air-conditioning and the ceiling fan was not enough to cope with a country whose temperature at night doesn't go below 21 degrees in autumn.

Slippery when wet
I booked 3 rooms for 6 over 40 men to have a get together and catch up. We had a great time, the hotel is nothing like as bad as some of the reviews. We had reason to speak with the staff on a few occasions but found them very helpful and curtious. It's a 10 minute walk into the main Teguise bars and shops which was ideal. The food at the hotel was perfectly adequate and we all found something different to eat every night. The bar in the hotel serves local beers and spirits all inclusive and premium beers, ciders at reasonable prices. Our rooms were cleaned at least 5 out of the 7 days and all requests catered for. Overall it's not 5 star but perfectly adequate and good value for money. My only criticism is the tiled area around the pool is very slippery when it rains.

We won't be going back!
On arrival the room appeared clean but was looking tired and in desperate need of refurbishment. However, after walking around (bare foot) it was clear that the floors were not as clean as they looked although the cleaning staff did appear to work hard. The beds were uncomfortable and only thin sheets and a blanket were provided in a room with no heating, meaning it was very cold in bed as temperatures were low in the evenings. The room was not very inviting or comfortable and we did not want to spend any time in the room. The food, in particular the evening meal, was dreadful. There was only a limited choice, and not much variation from day to day. Most food looked unappetising, but a good selection of salad was provided. The staff at meal times paid little attention to guests, and there was a general assumption that everybody was staying full board. If you decide to stay at the hotel the we would suggest bed and breakfast is the best way to go. The hotel was not up to the standard that we expected of a 3-star hotel (more like a 2-star), but if you are after something cheap and cheerful then the hotel will meet your needs. The pictures are deceiving and the rooms are much more dated than they appear.

horrendous!
Was in a self catering apt, no air con, no cooking utensils, towels were grey( supposed to be white), pool small and no chance of getting a lounger, but it was so crammed you would have been on top of the next person. Staff very unhelpful. Entertainment rubbish, bar didn't have rose wine. TV had 3 channels none of which were in English ...you had to pay for that. They tried to extort money from their customers by offering the hire of kettles, TV stations, cushions for the sunlounger etc. I would not recommend to anyone
