1. Info screens
We have five info screens around the complex that show the programme for the next 24 hours:
- Inside North Reception
- Sports Booking
- Outside South Reception
- Fitness Centre
- The Square
2. Club La Santa Website
Our full weekly programme for the next 14 days can be seen on our website. You can print it out or download it to your phone before arrival to help you plan your activities. Please be aware that classes can change at any time, but you will always find the most up-to-date version online.
3. The Club La Santa App
The full weekly programme can be viewed in the app after check-in for the next 14 days. It is possible to filter activities by day or category, to help you find what you are looking for. Under information, you can download a PDF file with the full overview of the following two weeks of activities.
How do I get access to the CLS booking app?
The Club La Santa Sports Booking app can be downloaded for free on your smartphone or tablet via the app store or Google Play. The app is available for clients with a current reservation only.
We recommend that you create a My Club La Santa account to make it easier for future use. Another option is to go to Sports Booking, after checking in at reception and receive a QR-scan code for anonymous login. You can read more about it here
If you are traveling as a family or group of friends, it is only the lead person (who has booked and paid for the accommodation) who receives a login. By sharing this login, you can manage the activities for all occupants in the apartment.
How does the point system work?
All guests are allocated a fixed number of points no matter the duration of the stay. These points are used to book the various activities, instructions, bikes etc. and the points will be released after each booked activity is over and go back to your account to use again. Points cannot be transferred to third parties. A child who travels with his/ her grandparents can therefore not take over any of their points, for example; you can only book the number of activities that your points total allows. Should you wish to book more, you may either cancel a booking, or wait for your points to be restored once an activity has finished.
You are not allowed to book a class in someone else’s name and you cannot book your child on adult classes in your name instead.
All activities “cost” x number of points. Activities with limited space are more expensive and activities without a maximum capacity will be free. You can book activities up to 14 days ahead, but the closer you get the cheaper it will be if there are still spaces available. Should there still be spaces available on the day, the activity will be free two hours before start time, as our main objective is to fill our classes. The system will prevent you from booking activities with overlapping times.
You have the option of joining the waiting list, which costs the same as booking a spot on the activity. We try to avoid long virtual waiting lists, and this is why signing up for the waiting lists are not free. In that case we have experienced many will sign up without being sure if they want to go. Via the app, you can keep an eye on what number you are on the waiting list, and should you get a place on the class you will automatically receive a notification.
We hope that the point system will encourage less overbooking of activities, but at the same time, motivate our guests to cancel bookings that they will not use, as this is the only way to get points back. Please note that 4 tennis courts are specifically reserved for TSO booking (2 days in advance), and which other guests can only book 1 day in advance.
How much can I book?
You can only book an activity if you match the age and gender requirements for the activity and if you have no other activity booked during the same time period. It is not possible to book anything else at the same time as you have a bike booked. This is to ensure that when our bikes are booked, they are out and when they are not, they are available for others to use.
How does the bike booking work?
Bikes must be booked in advance. It is not permitted to turn up without a booking and take a bike. Bike can be booked up to two days in advance via the Club La Santa Booking App or in Sports Booking.
Our free bikes are available in three times slots during the day:
- 09.00 – 12.00 (available for collection from 08.00)
- 12.00 – 15.00
- 15.00 – 18.00
To ensure you get a bike, it is recommended that you book two days in advance. If bikes are still available, it is possible to book a bike once a time slot has already started but remember that the bike must be returned at the latest 15 minutes before the time slot ends. If the bike is available, you can book the next time slot and keep the bike for longer. Pre-booked bikes that are not picked up 20 minutes after the start time, can be handed out to clients on the waiting list. You can combine two or three time slots for a longer bike ride.
During your bike booking, you will be restricted from booking other activities. Even after returning your bike, you will be restricted until the end of the time slot. An exclusive feature of bike bookings is that it is possible cancel your booking during the time slot if you come back earlier. This will free you up to make other bookings and also give you your points back.
Bikes must be returned 15 minutes before your booking time ends. If bikes are not returned on time, you can be deducted points for the rest of your stay.
You must prove your booking to the bike centre staff when collecting your bike. You can do this on your smartphone or tablet by showing your booking in the App, or if you booked in Sports Booking, you will need a print-out of your reservation.
If you want a bike for serval days, we recommend that you rent one of our high-quality carbon bikes. These bikes can be booked and payed for via our website before arrival, or you can book via the app once you are on-site.
