 Ana Maria Tavarez 18, was crowned the new Gala Queen in Santa Cruz de Tenerife late at night on the 18th February 2009. Celebrations continued well into the early morning, certainly a stunning costume and beautiful Queen.

Dear Owner,

Towards the end of January, the Spanish police raided the offices of Global Vacations Limited, a marketing company selling Club Class Concierge holiday club membership, arresting sixteen people on suspicion of fraud.

Victims of this alleged fraud will have been approached by resale company ETOO telling them that a buyer had been found for their points or week. They would have been told that the transaction would have to be concluded in person in Malaga. Once there the owners were met by Global Vacations Limited representatives who try to sell them Club Class Concierge membership. This may well have been alongside a cash-back offer through CashBack Europe Plc.

To assist the authorities in Spain with their investigations, evidence is now required from timeshare owners and the purpose of this email is to call on OTE members to inform their staff, post messages on their websites or their newsletters to encourage as many victims as possible come forward. A case can only be built up if sufficient evidence is provided!

In this instance, rather than forwarding complaints to OTE’s enforcement team in Spain, we have been informed that evidence should be sent to the complainant’s local European Consumer Centre, details of which can be found on the ECC website http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/redress_cons/docs/ecc_network_centers.pdf

Photocopies of all documents, a brief statement providing details about their case and photocopies of proof of payments made should be provided.

UK based consumers should send their complaints to:

Carnival Dates

Santa Cruz de Tenerife : 15th Fen – 21st Feb 2009

Los Cristianos : 7th March – 16th March 2009

Los Gigantes : 23rd Feb – 1st March 2009

A great experience is to attend one of the Carnival dates held throughout the island of Tenerife.
It is almost certain that the population of Tenerife began celebrating carnival shortly after the conquest when the Portuguese & Spaniards arrived on the island.
Since then it has been held almost every year except during the Civil War and the first years of Franco’s dictatorship put a stop to it. However, the ban was relaxed and in 1961 carnival took over the streets of Tenerife once again.
The spectacular carnival queens are the most famous symbol of the carnival. Every Year different candidates compete in a great show called the “Gala de Eleccion de la Reina” (Election of the Queen). Every district holds a carnival chooses its own Queen, but it is the competition to be Queen of the Santa Cruz that attracts the most attention. There are many spectacular design, costumes and fantasies.
The tourist resort of Los Gigantes, in the southern district of Santiago del Teide holds its own four-day carnival. As in other towns on the island, it takes place the weekend after the Santa Cruz carnival finishes. They hold the election of the carnival queen and competitions in the central square La Bouganvilla, there are carnival groups, dances, processions and the usual burial of the sardine, which marks the end of the festival on the Monday.
