What can you tell me about Club LaCosta, Tenerife?

A supplier of ours is coming out to Tenerife in November for a week at the Club LaCosta, I'm not sure of the exact details but I believe they have to have one of these 'presentation' days.

They have asked me If I know anything about the place or the presentations, they are assuming its a 'time share' type of opperation.

I said I would ak around and see if anyone has any info, so does anyone have a Club LaCosta membership? If so, do you like it?

Thanks

Hopper

what they do is they provide you with a free accomodation for a week, during this time one of the reps will come around and invite you to a presentation where they explain you the club la costa system and such. usually this can take anything up from 3 hrs upward, then again, why not taking part in it when you know you have the rest of the week for yourself and a free accomodation.... ( used to work for them once, many many moons ago....and not everything was as bad as it is described sometimes...)

They don't have a good reputationfrom what I've heard Tread carefully

Its not sold as Timeshare but as a Holiday club on a points system

Sunterra is another operation to be wary of

I wasn't having a go at anyone who works for them past or present and I am sure Hopper's friends will have a great time at the resort as long as they do not buy one.

My Mood:
My brother bought timeshare with club LaCosta, but every time he goes on holiday through them he has to attend a "presentation" where they try to get people to upgrade.
He has just come back off holiday to Crete - independant of club LaCosta -and really enjoyed the freedom!

Thanks for the input, its great to get the 'low down' as it were.

I was explaining to my supplier that there were many quality timeshare options in Tenerife and that they are not al bad. I honestly had no idea as to the reputation of Club LaCosta.

I will point them in the direction of this thread and allow them to make their own minds up.

By all means give your friend my local number and I'll have a chat with them when they're here as I'd prefer not to post my thoughts here.
