Tenerife accomodation help

Hi, I have stupidly booked cheap flights without booking a hotel and wonder if anyone could please help me find a hotel / apartment etc for the following:

5-11 March 2007 - 6 nights
2 adults (aged 23 & 25)
any board basis
Playa de las Americas, Tenerife
Must have nice pool
3 star or above accomodation
Want to do it as cheap as possible but £350 would be the maximum I would like to pay. I have found laguna 2 for £109 which I will take as a last resort however this will be our first holiday away together and I would like a nice holiday (laguna 2 has some bad reviews).

Or if anyone knows any websites that would be cheap for Tenerife that would also be a great help.

Thanks

    Thanks, I shall have a look. On another idea does anyone know what Costa Adeje is like and how far it is (walking distance and cost of a taxi) to las americas? There are some reasonable priced hotels there so that is another possibility.
