Beautiful hotel fully refurbished, modern clean and exceptional amenities but what makes it superb is the staff. Kind helpful and nothing is to much trouble. Pool is lovely and the breakfast is incredible. Would definitely come back

We have just returned from a 3 night stay at this stunning hotel. From the initial welcome and efficient check-in, until the end of our stay the front desk staff were friendly and professional. The rooms are clean with plenty storage space and super comfortable beds. All of the foods we ate were delicious with an added unique dining experience The Gourmet Market, boasting sunset views this is a must, a big shout out to all of the chefs and servers! The pool area was peaceful with plenty of coctails and food to try. There really is so much to enjoy at this hotel which boats style, cleanliness, and on the doorstep to anything you need to experience a 5 star holiday. I would highly recommend this hotel for a memorable holiday and we look forward to return in the future!

Hands down the best hotel I’ve ever been to, there’s always something to do (cooking class, yoga, free ice cream, concerts and the list goes on) the staff are lovely and so attentive.
The beach is a very short walk away.
We were on half board and the breakfast and dinner each day were AMAZING, they had a sushi night which blew me away.
There’s plenty of sunbeds and the pool was never crowded.

Bittersweet experience that I will try to go through here.
Starting at the start of our time there.
- The service, that is by far the best of our experience. From check-in to check-out everyone is friendly, polite and very attentive. Every person in the hotel at all times wished you good morning, a good day... And tried to make sure you were comfortable there, cleaning service, bartender, chefs...
- The location, you need to know where you are going. Costa Adeje is not a relax place, is a town catered to the tourist that is coming to drink, sunbathe, party and eat in the most touristy restaurants that can exist. This was clearly a mistake from our side as we wanted to relax and enjoy our time at the coast. However, if you understand that you are coming for that, Iberostar selection sabila is a great place. Located 5 minutes walking from the beach and relatively easy access by car. Very close to restaurants, beach bars... Definitely a very good location in the area.
- Breakfast, here is where the bittersweet experience starts, and with bitter I will start on the coffee. It is unbelievable that a 5 star hotel has such a bad coffee. I was very disappointed with it. The buffet in itself, has everything but it feels as if everything is mass produced. There are some nice touches like grilled veggies, fresh omelette, poached eggs... but being in such a big hotel, everything is produced, and you feel it, even the fruit was quite tasteless and felt canned. You have some healthy options, but it was striking that from the cereal bar, except the oatmeal, everything was sugary. In general, it felt catered for British tourist (it's target population) with not a lot of care for local products. It was really a pity because it was good, just not what you expect from a 5 star hotel.
- The amenities, the swimming pool is a relaxing swimming pool, no place to swim and low depth. But in general it is decent size and not very busy. The bar is nice and you have plenty of options to order. the gym was quite small, a very standard hotel gym. The towel service was very nice and worked really good. But again I need to highlight a very negative aspect, the seats around the swimming pool. It made the whole relaxing and spending the day at the hotel experience stressing and very bad. From very early in the morning (around 8) people went down to 'book' their seats at the swimming pool. Which is fine if they want to, what is not fine is that after having breakfast, relaxing at our room, we went down to the swimming pool to read and sunbath a bit, and our surprise was, not only that all the seats were busy, but the fact that from all of the busy seats, counting together the people at the swimming pool + the seats with people laying, probably occupancy was on the 50-60%. No control was made over the empty spots, after waiting and eventually being able to take 2 seats that were left free, I saw seats next to us, with towels on them that were not used for over 2 hours... When someone came to sit on them. If real control would be made on that, everyone, throughout the day, that would want to take a seat would be able to, however, the fact no control is done promotes people to 'book' seats as otherwise they know they will not have a spot free because everyone is doing it.
- Sleep, unfortunately, as said above... This is catered for a certain tourist. There is a live show in the hotel and even worst, a big live show at the hotel in front. It lasts until 11 with loud music afterwards at least during the weekend. So if you are planning to read and sleep early, this is not an option. Really a pity.
Conclusion, evaluate what do you want in your holidays, and if you know Costa Adeje is for you, then this hotel will be an amazing option. Unfortunately, it was not exactly for us. Still, kudos to all personnel, everyone was amazing!

We spent a day at The Spa in the hotel and we were not disappointed. Nina and Erica gave us the most amazing couples massage and all the staff were just lovely. It was my birthday on the day of our spa and they bought us prosecco after our treatment. The Facilities were beautiful and it was a great way to spend my birthday.
The hotel was fabulous and the staff were great.
