“Cordial Appartments (Self Catering)”

After our recent 1 week stay (14/7/08) at the Cordial Mogan Apartments, which are self catering, we can advise all potential visitors that they are open, but not fully and are simply fantastic! There are two wings (north and south) and we stayed in the northern wing of which the top 3 floors are still not open, also 1 pool was closed, but this didn't effect our stay. Our ground floor apartment was brand new (we were the first occupants!) and only 5m from the triangular pool and very well appointed. Plenty of space around the pool, although this may change when complex is fully open? Very quite location, Purto Mogan is so different to the other resorts, simply beautiful place to stay, but not recommended for party goers (good reason to stay we think!). Beach is small (a good 10-15min walk from apartments) and a little overcrowded on occassions, but the Cordial complex has first class facilities for sun worshipers so why leave! Recommend visitors visit the local supermarket to stock up on essentials on arrival and sit back to enjoy the peaceful and beautiful location. We were slighlty disapointed with the quality of local restaurants plus they were on the pricey side, food tends to be better away from the quayside, we found the little Italian (caravagio's) in the little venice side streets to be excellent. Fresh fish was excellent, but pricey. Recommend hiring a car to explore the island, cheaper than any tour and you'll get great feel for the island as it is so small, but the roads are not for the faint-hearted in the mountains!!! Overall a very beautiful place to stay and a cut above the rest, we would recommend it for anyone looking for a quality self-catering stay in quiet, peaceful and beautiful location.

“Simply The Best!”

We stayed at these newly opened apartments from 14th-28th July and loved them. Considering they have just opened and not all the apartments are ready yet, we were not once disturbed by any work going on. We were the only apartment open along our corridor. We arrived late at night and were helped to our apartment. It took 3 lifts and 2 flights of stairs but later in the week the 4th lift opened. We had a 2-bedroom apartment (until they are fully open, if you are worried about not getting a 2-bed apartment and have young children ring them up before you go. They are giving priorty for these apartments to those with young children). It was fantastic - very spacious. The main bedroom has a HUGE bed (super king size) and en-suite bathroom with corner bath, shower over bath, hairdryer and 2 sinks. The second bedroom has 2 single beds pushed together. There is another bathroom with bath, shower over, hairdyer and sink. The lounge area had TV (only 2 English channels available - CNN and BBC World News), sofa bed, 2 chairs and phone. The kitchen area was well equipped - fridge, 2 ceramic hobs, microwave, toaster, kettle and coffee machine. Only fault was there was only 1 socket so you can't make your tea and toast at the same time. We managed to cook in several times. Our balcony was long and thin but we noticed that the balconies varied a lot in size. There were 2 sun loungers, a table and 4 chairs and a shower. We didn't find the apartments too hot as has been mentioned in other reviews. We kept the doors open and fans on 24-7. From the position of our apartment we felt very safe and figured only spiderman could get in so took the risk of leaving the doors open while were we out to stop it getting so hot. I wouldn't recommend this for all apartments. The apartments by the pool open straight out onto the pool area and are not private at all. You'd have to shut your doors at night. We saw several cockroaches in our apartment - very quickly evicted by hero of a husband! It's part and parcel of going to a hot country. Our apartment was cleaned 5 times a week. Beds are changed twice a week and towels 3 times a week. They do request towels are not left on the floor apart from on towel changing days. We had a problem with the safe but that was sorted out straight away - can't complain considering we were the first in the apartment and we arrived at about 11pm. The next day we couldn't open the lounge patio door and again someone came very quickly to sort it out. Outside areas are kept very clean. We were amazed at how beautiful the plants were considering the place at just opened. There are currently 2 out of 3 pools open. We only used the one by the bar as it has a childrens' pool. It was great for kids. There is a playground but it only has a slide and that gets RED hot in the sun. The supermarket across the road is very well equipped and is open 9am-9pm. There is also a Spar further towards the port which has a bigger meat selection and lovely freshly baked bread throughout the day. It's about a 15 minute walk to the beach/harbour along a paved walkway. The beach was quiet during the week but it gets very busy at weekends when the locals descend. The harbour area is beautiful and has a good selection of restaurants. We had a fantastic holiday and wouldn't hesitate to return to these apartments.

“Excellant Apartments”

My family of 2 adults and 2 kids (05 & 13yrs) stayed in a 1 bedroom apartment for 2 weeks from the 05th july 2008. These are only open about 2 weeks prior to arrival. Probably one of the best standards of apartments we have ever stayed in. 9 floors high, so a series of steps or lifts to be negotiated at all times. Accom is very spacious with couch converting 2 single beds in the living room, quite a large bedroom, huge bathroom and fully fitted kitchen. Balcony very spacious with 2 sunbeds and table & 4 chairs.Towels and bedlinen changed Monday/Wed/Fri. 2 very nice pools with ample sunbeds. Washing machines and dryers avaialble at 4 euro per load. Nice restaurant on site with a bar but entertainment has begun yet.No proper kids club.Just 1 animator who plays volleyball twice a day.Spa is absolutely beautiful with treatments not too expensive.Hyperdino supermarket right across the road.Beach about 10mins walk as is also the port area for the restaurants.Eating out is limited in Porto Mogan unless you like Tapas.2 of our fav restaurants were Marina Bar (Irish) and Clipper (Italian). Bus to Puerto Rico was 5 euro oneway for the 4 of us.However Mogan is so beautiful and peaceful, you would not want to leave. The only problem I had with this holiday was the staff of Cordial Mogan Valle. They were so rude and unhelpful at all times . Final tip, you have to vacate apartments by midday on day of departure. You can request a late checkout for a fee of 25.00 euro ut this can only be confirmed on that morning.Overall an excellant accomodation that I would gladly stayin again.

“Fantastic place, Fantastastic staff, Loved it”

I just got back from these apartments this morning and i had the most amazing holiday. The wait for the apartments to open was well worth it and all the stress and worry that went with it. The apartments are very clean, very well equipped and thought out and if you get one by the pool that is an extra bonus. The staff are tops... they couldn't help out any more than they did... they went out of their way for us and they were very friendly. You also have to check out the health suite too. I am already planning my next trip back there.

“Au top !”

Les appartements sont à côté de l'hôtel cordial mogan playa et sont tous neufs (une partie de l'établissement est encore en cours de finition) Que dire ? Puerto Mogan est vraiment la station balnéaire la plus sympa de Grande canarie, bien loin de l'agitation de playa del ingles ou puerto rico. Les apparts sont spacieux (50 m2 environ), confortables et bien équipés. La terrasse est grande. Egalement plusieurs piscines faciles d'accés ou que l'on soit. Sans oublier l'accés gratuit au sauna, à la salle de sport et au jacuzzi ! Un bar et un snack bien accueillants également. Pas d'animations (sauf certains soirs pour les enfants) ce qui fait que l'hébergement est super calme tout le temps. En résumé, allez y c'est vraiment top !
