Amazing great apartments that surprised in a positive fashion, review is being written during our stay here. I can only presume negative reviews from 2025 stayed somewhere else as the comments made there don't make sense from our visit only months afterwards. This is a small block of apartments over two floors which all face the pool and large terrace/balcony is a sun trap most of the day. As with all properties there are a limited amount of loungers around the pool, but not disproportionate for the size of the place. The kitchen area of the apartments are pretty reasonable with a cooker/grill and a hob plus kettle and toaster. As others have noted there is no microwave, but that wasn't a big problem for us. The fridge/freezer was a reasonable size. The apartments are very clean and well maintained with plenty of hot water. Free WiFi is provided. For those who want TV, through the power of the Internet there is YouTube and Amazon etc available (I presume you need an account for the later) Live TV channels are available in most common languages, for example the English options are 5 UK based and 2 Irish ones. The safe is chargeable, and the safe and hairdryer also have a deposit on them. The apartments are managed by the adjacent Club Oceano, which has facilities that can be used by Ico customers, and it is here that the reception is for both properties. If you arrive outside the reception hours (which we did) you are provided in advance with the gate code and a code for a key box.

“Winter Sun”

Have been coming to these apartments for a number of years. The location is great, not too far from the strip but far enough away to be relatively quiet. The apartments are basic but clean, the staff work really hard. The pool isn’t heated but you can use the heated one at Club Oceano across the road. The Wi-Fi is thankfully now free as is the TV where you can get English channels although we found these a bit hit and miss in terms of stability, using YouTube was much better. We always try and get an upstairs apartment as like a lot of Spanish buildings there is zero soundproofing. Every noise that your neighbour makes can be heard which isn’t a problem if they are considerate but not so good if they come back at 0200hrs and start dragging the furniture around as we had. We both wore earplugs to sleep but even with these we were still disturbed by others. Also be aware that the block is opposite recycling bins that are emptied most days at 0630hrs, I hope the people that woke us up at 0200hrs were woken by this too. This used to be our “cheap and cheerful” getaway but it’s not as cheap as it used to in fact we hired a 2 bed bungalow in Famara for not much more. The pros generally outweigh the cons but there are issues.
