hi..going to jardin del sol in few weeks..can anyone tell me what there like..iv heard there quite nice..just after a little reassurence...and how is the weather doing..and sea temp..

Errr... are you following me around?
Lol
Didn't you go to Egypt last year just after me?

I don't know about the jardin apts, but the weather is mostly unbroken blue sky, high 20's, and the sea is swimmable, but a little cool at first (in Playa del Ingles). I went 16 - 23 april, and the mil went the following week... i planned that one well!
Search for 'dietmars weatherstation'.
'grancanaria online' also has weather and webcams.

lol..ummmmm dont think i am following ya.lol...whats the best things to do over there..like waterparks,boat trips etc..and is it cheap to eat out?..and where in hampshire are ya.

I take it your going to playa del ingles?

Yes, big waterpark, didn't do any boat trips but they had dolphin and fishing trips at the main beach entrance.
Cheap to eat out (as all the canaries are) but had a tip top steak at 'Grouchos' one night, so I recommend that. (round corner from the Kasbah)
Kasbah is the main 'mad' area at night.

I'm north hants, right on the surrey/berks border.

ok thanks mate..and my name is mark.lol...really it is..never been to any of canaries..i love snorkalling..is the sea really clear?..wasnt sure with it being atlantic..

Hi,

I stayed in Jardin del Sol appartments last summer and they are great! They are great appartments, very clean and very friendly staff. There is a small bar in the middle of the pool which is great for snacks and cooling off at pool. I really liked how they are not like normal appartments where they are lots of rooms in a big block but are almost like small individual houses. I have just booked up to go back to Playa Del Ingles in July of this year. Sadly we could not get the Jardin Del Sol appartments at the time we are going in our budget so we are staying at Liberty appartments near by. I am jealous that you are going to stay there, they made a big part of our holiday experience last year and im sure you will love them.
