Stayed in oro blanco July 99. Directly downstairs we had the Leeds united girls football team, 3/4 of the people in the apartments were girls. Great time 😊

[@stephenbyrnes7460]

Quality time.

[@bcegerton]

Remember Tramps back in 96, Soul Train too. I stayed in the Oro Negro a few years ago, food was great, the Negro will be the second one going down the hill, the smaller one if I’m right. I was on the right hand side overlooking the pool. I know what you mean about those “ladies”, all stand around the car park over the road too and where those shops are just past the Oro Negro

[@andrewfox6631]

I went into tramps in 98,99 and 2000. All in September/ October time. Ive still got a tape from tramps with all the music on ,tgat eas played back then.

[@jamescharlton73]

This is more or less the exact route to my hotel when I went in 2017. Out of the two routes back to the hotel from the main strip at night this route felt the safer one. The other route from the strip was back along close to the sea which was really quiet at night with lots of closed off abandoned spaces from what I can remember. The quiet part was with exception of seeing groups of prostitutes and drug dealers hanging about which of course I got approached constantly.

Another good Video Kevin. I always enjoy watching you’re wee walkabouts. I haven’t been over for a few Years now. My past couple of Holidays were in Cancun, Mexico and Negril, Jamaica before the Pandemic kicked in. I always enjoyed Tenerife over Crimbo and New Year with Family. I stay with a friend years ago in either the Oro Negro or the Oro Blanco can’t remember which one off the top of my head. We were okay walking home but I had a few run in’s with aggressive let’s say “ladies of the night” approaching me when I was drunk trying to push me over and grab my wallet near Veronica’s and that road you walked up. Luckily I only ever took enough to do me for a nights drinking so later on at night I’d never have much on me even if they did grab my money. I think someone spiked my drink in one of the Bars along the Veronica’s Strip before too as I hadn’t drank much and got a bit drowsy and drunk quite quickly and my wallet was taken from my pocket. Had no money for a Taxi so had to walk over to the Princessa Dacel Hotel (Now Renamed I think) in Los Cristianos. Longest walk ever when you feel drunk. Luckily there wasn’t much money in my Wallet so was just about €10 Euro or so and my Room Key Card in it. A valuable lesson learned. I prefer up around San Eugenio Area and stayed in Iberostar Bouganville Playa my last few trips. Great Hotel and area. Also stayed once up at Laguna Park 2 when on a Stag Party. and it was a bit rough and ready. Heart attack Hill was a killer when walking back up too Laguna Park 2.. lol ! 🥵🤣 Keep up all the good Video’s and Happy New Year mate. 🇮🇨🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎥😎👍🏼

[@scottglasgow2747]

You might not wear one at home but I recommend if you walk up the main drag past Veronica's 'Rafael Puig' always have a man bag on to your chest at the front with your belongings in it and never let anyone shake your hand or hug you apart from the covid risk it's a distraction tactic. Also, avoid basically anyone who is trying to be your pal. P.s Gaffers does a good Sunday roast and pre covid used to be bouncing til the wee hours with karaoke! That one you called a nightclub is a lady of the night bar lol. Nearly went in their drunk thinking it's a club. Anywhere called a nightclub abroad I've found is NOT a nightclub 😂😂😂

[@hughc178]

In October 2021 on the corner (at 4:30 in the video) I was walking alone when I was approached by some Romanian bloke who was trying to sell me tickets to the Music Hall Tavern show. He was pushing that it was a girly show and he pushed up against me. I found out a few minutes later he had stolen my phone from my trouser pocket. Watch out - be on your guard - and don't let anyone get close to you - inc the prostitutes who are in that area. Needless to say I did not get my phone back, and the hassle at the police station trying to report it........!

Ha ha..... I knew what your 'story' was going to be as soon as you headed up past the Paradisio lol. Any single guy walking up that way is targeted. I stayed at the Oro Negro one year (2017 ?) and actually thought it was an excellent hotel? We had one of the superior rooms on the ground floor at the other side of the pool as you come out from under the reception area, had a large patio with sun loungers and table & chairs rather than a balcony, and the room itself was massive. We only ended up there and in the superior room because we booked late and everywhere was fully booked. Payed TOP DOLLAR for it and whilst it was pretty swanky, we wouldn't do it again unless we had to. I prefer to spend money on the restaurants and stuff rather than the hotel which we hardly spend any time in other than sleeping ?!? All them pubs you mentioned in Veronica's are best avoided as far as I'm concerned Kev, but I know you're showcasing the place to a wide audience and it's only fair you mentioned them, but not for me. Although the place on the right before the pharmacy (can't remember the name) the big long pub? They have some cracking live entertainment on, a scouse drag artist in particular, he's dead funny and rips into the audience, and he's a right good singer. On the original subject of your story....... The girl in the red top sitting on the wall just up from the strip joint in the video, she'd have a suggestion for you if you weren't filming, trust me lol. Sorry for being a bit fruity, don't mean to disrespect your channel. Loving the videos Kev 👍
