Last Minute Holidays to Tenerife

Honest Review of My Stay I wanted to share my experience after staying at this hotel. Before booking, I had read the reviews and noticed they were mostly negative. However, I figured people are often more inclined to leave negative feedback than positive, so I decided to give it a try. Overall, the hotel is quite dated, but I have to say the staff are incredibly kind and accommodating. The rooms were spotlessly clean, which was a big plus for me. I did notice that the staff seem to deal with a lot of difficult behavior from some guests, which must be challenging for them. When it comes to the food, I have no complaints about the quality—it was tasty! That said, the variety wasn’t great, similar to what you might find at other budget-friendly hotels. As with many package holidays, the meals did become a bit repetitive over time. Would I recommend this hotel? It really depends on what you’re looking for. If you’re okay with a lively atmosphere and don’t mind some noise from younger, party-focused guests, then yes, this hotel might suit you. However, if you’re seeking a quiet and peaceful retreat, I’d say this probably isn’t the best choice. This hotel is geared towards travelers on a budget, and some guests certainly make the most of the free bars and alcohol. Keep that in mind when deciding if it’s the right fit for you.

A very noisy hotel , beds that make a noise when moved, screaming and shouting from other guests and music turn up load in rooms on all floors. Food is disgusting and plates were not cleaned at all dinning times even with food from previous meals. Limited sun beds and everyone places a towel on the limited seats even if no one is there. Good things was one of the receptionists who was amazing and helped our group and location of the hotel which is very central.

Janice Chappell

My husband and I had a lovely week all inclusive. The bar staff were fab and accommodating with different cocktails. Food was basic and repetitive but well Presented. Pool areas were great. Be aware that the sun on main pool is probably on pool from 10 until 3pm. (In January) quite central to bars, restaurants, chemist and supermarkets. overall enjoyed the week. Thank you

Now this place is far from perfect, however most of its faults are caused by the clientele. It is a decent place , pool and sun beds are good , rooms comfy and whilst not top notch they are fine with all you need . We were ai , breakfast good , lunch and diner a bit hit and miss but generally food was ok/ good . Ate out several evenings for a change . Beer was ok , coke was awful and the mrs purchased bottles of coke to go with her vodka , cocktails ok . Most staff miserable , entertainment man was a waste of time , did nothing to get people involved . Indoor barman funny and happy and love chucking ice and catching it in the cup behind his back ! Slept well beds comfy , disturbed only one night by drunken Scots but you get them anywhere , normally drunk and 🥵 sunburnt ! The old saying you get what you pay for , those who slate it really need to pay double and go somewhere better .

Mairead Fallon

Only suitable if you are with a gang of friends on a stag/hen party! I would never stay again, really old, walls paper thin, woken every night two or three times due to people shouting in the corridor. Music is at the pool every day which is nice but not at 3am! Bathroom was full of cockroaches. Bed was comfy and cleaning staff were nice and cleaned it every second day. No air-conditioning and you have to pay for everything WiFi, TV etc.

Agata

Whole resort is located on a steep hill with amazing views, so if you have mobility issues, it's not for you. Rooms are equipped with small kitchen area for those self catering. We went for an option with breakfast and we couldn't be happier. Plenty food to choose from. Breakfast from 7:30-10:30. Rooms are bit outdated, but clean. Cleaning service every two days, so I can't agree with some comments that rooms are dirty. The grounds of the resort are massive and impressive, great pool size and plenty sunbeds, never seen people fighting for one. Unfortunately WiFi is only by the reception and maybe first row of rooms, so make sure you have some data on your mobile. There is little free library by the reception and plenty of books in many languages. I spotted German, Dutch, Swedish and of course English. Bit noisy at night as people check in 24/7 so ear plugs are essential. Overall good experience.

Joseph Henry

Went on a stag do. The hotel is a bit dated and the food offerings left a bit to be desired. However, you do get what you pay for. It is a good place to stay for those on a budget. The views from the hotel are great and has a decent sized pool. Probably Ok for a stag but would I take my wife or a family there? Probably not

TJ Minnock

The hotel is about as 3 star as it gets. Nothing too fancy, but nowhere near as bad as some of the reviews make it out to be. Rooms are nice and practical but don't have air conditioning which makes them very hot. Balconies and views are nice. Food wasn't the best and a couple of staff were a little bit rude. It''s also a lot of hill walking to get back from the town which isn't ideal in the heat. Overall, if you're looking for a budget holiday destination, it's a great choice. There's certainly more luxurious locations in the area, but I enjoyed it. Pool was great.

lynn

cheap but not so cheerful.. I was pleasantly surprised when i arrived and seen the hotel grounds as i wasn’t expecting luxury in a 2 star hotel. The grounds were lovely with a big pool and amazing view! . However when we got to the room things changed… I expected a 2 star hotel to be old and run down .. but not DIRTY! the bathroom was coated in dust, spider webs were visible in every corner , the shower barley worked and when i opened the wardrobe to put my clothes away cockroaches ran at me!. safe to say that wardrobe was firmly closed the entire stay. We also found an old flip flop covered in dust under the coffee table 🫠🫠 surely it’s not that hard to keep a room clean? . If you’re just looking for somewhere cheap to lay your head then this hotel would be fine! as we did only pay £54 a night which is a great deal for a cheap few nights away! but for me the lack of cleanliness in the room was so disappointing and there really is zero excuse for it no matter how much you have paid . I definitely would not return .

amy louise

We came here last April we had a fab experience thought we return Feb 2025- wish we never! the manger lady is a disgusting rude woman not only to us many it seems. The man who dealt with us on our arrival was lovely couldn't fault him. We asked if we could have a room with a view or near the pool or close as our son is disabled - sure they said... if you pay extra 70 euros- paid the 70 exact words were great room with really good view this is our view dirty flip flop and a vape. Zero sun from morning to night on our balcony. Room was apparently cleaned but floor says different so does the stained sheets and kettle full of ants. Food has gone drastically down hill especially for choice of food for kids. Kids can't be kids in the pool either anymore stopped allowing ball games and inflatables except a ring.

Stephen Cox

We enjoyed our holiday, but first impressions aren't great. Parts of the hotel desperately need a coat of paint, taps are so old that the chrome has worn off, light in our room was missing a shade, it looks as if only a minimum amount has been spent on maintenance for 40 years. But the food is good if a bit limited especially deserts which were very samey. Staff excellent. Sunbeds definitely need renewing - faded and saggy. Entertainment not up to much, but animation duo did their best with enthusiasm. Drinks served in paper cups, and you couldn't use your own plastic one -why? WiFi €30 per device which is outrageous! But once you got used to it, we had a good holiday, helped by the excellent staff and decent food.

Very nice hotel, maybe not luxury but clean and with a climate. There is a nice cafeteria with delicious and various food, everyone will find something for themselves. Also the outside pool is nice, you can swim, relax and have a drink or snack in outside bar. The service is very nice and helpful, they can help you to rent a car and recommend what is worth to see, where to shop, call the taxi etc. Generally we loved it.

Philip Mock

Hotel in need of some TLC. The staff are amazing, and give great service. But little faults accumulate and spoil the overall feel. Drinks are served in paper cups. The room had only one available electrical outlet (luckily we always bring a multi adaptor). The rooms generally looked tired and outdated. The food was good and varied, sometimes a little cooler than desired, but there is a microwave available to heat if required. The pool area is nice, with plenty of beds available (although we did visit in low season). Overall we enjoyed our stay, but probably wouldn't return to the Palia Don Pedro.

Diogo Valente

My initial interactions with the hotel were quite disappointing, to the point where we considered canceling our booking. I reached out via Booking.com because, despite the hotel being advertised as open 24/7, we discovered that check-in ends at midnight, and we knew we would be arriving later. Unfortunately, it took several days to receive a response to my message, and we only got a reply after calling them directly which cost us an international call. Additionally, the day before our arrival, we emailed the hotel regarding pool towels. They confirmed that towels were provided but failed to mention that there would be a charge: rental cost of €7 per towel plus a €10 deposit. We ultimately decided to purchase towels from a nearby supermarket for €8 each which allowed us to keep them. A great unnecessary souvenir. This brings me to another point: while the hotel is marketed as all-inclusive, many essentials are not included, such as pool towels, the safe deposit box, Wifi, and the TV remote, all of which require a deposit. As a result, we ended up watching Polish channels for our entire five-day stay. The pool area, where we spent a lot of our time, was spacious, featuring two pools and plenty of sunbeds. Just a heads-up: if you want the best sunbeds, be prepared to wake up early and place your towels! One last point to mention: since this is an all-inclusive hotel, you can imagine that a lot of cups for various drinks are used throughout the day. While there is a significant emphasis on recycling in Tenerife, around the pool—where most of the all-inclusive drinks are served—they use cardboard cups and plates. Unfortunately, there are no recycling bins available. I understand the practicality of using cardboard cups, but from a sustainability perspective, this is not ideal. It could definitely be improved.

Amber Gimblett

This has got to be the most disgusting place iv ever stayed 🤮 the first room we were given did not even have a bed for my daughter, and were told she had to sleep on the sofa that was about 200 years old, I would not let are 3 dogs stay in that room, They did move us rooms was not much better, but my daughter had a bed 🙄 Went to the pool the next day and iv never been so shocked to fined how this place is still open 😳 all the sun chairs were deformed and covered in dirt 🤮 All the grouting was missing from the floor tiles where kids kept cutting there feet, All the staff were moody and un inviting, The hotel needs closing for a few months and complete renovations to bring it back to offer holiday makers what they are advertising. Love holidays really let us down on this one, Till they have sorted this place out, please do not take your kids there, it’s unsafe also the lifeguard sat in a bush not even looking at the pool all day 🤷‍♀️ In my eyes not safe for humans 🤦🏼‍♀️

Paul Elias

Nice comfortable hotel,a bit tired,in need of a freshen up. Great for kids nice separate pool area and playground with AstroTurf. Food good plenty of choice. Entertainment every night. Great sunbathing area on rooftop with great views. Overall good value for money.

Hazel Skelton

Absolutely love this hotel, booked to go back in February 2026. We go all inclusive and I'm happy with everything. We use jet2.com as our package deal and it's 1st class. The rooms are spotless, lifts to all floors. Pool is great and entertainments top class.

Teresa Ellis

A great holiday from start to finish. The reception staff were so pleasant and helpful, likewise all staff we encountered during our stay. We were B&B only and could always get seated with plentiful and an extensive range of food. The hot items were not that hot but there was a microwave if needed and the omelette freshly made were great and piping hot. I’ve seen reviews saying that the rooms are dated but I didn’t think so as it’s not advertising itself as a boutique hotel. Everywhere is spotlessly clean also. We will for certain return next year if it’s not closed for refurb as we did hear during our stay that, that was going to happen.

Vera Sanderberg

10th time here! Staff absolutely fantastic, nothing is too much trouble! Rooms lovely and clean, location perfect for us. Tonight's entertainment George Pane brilliant, very, very funny and beautiful voice. His last song, "Bring him home" reduced my husband to tears, so beautiful.

Jan Rider

Just arrived yesterday but hotel is amazing so clean and looks like most of it been upgraded recently. Plenty of loungers around pool and lots of space. Activities all day and animation team is great.

Maxine

We have just got back from our stay at Gran Oasis for 5 nights all inclusive, and it was incredible from start to finish! The staff were all so lovely and friendly, but there were two staff members who really stood out for us, the lady who takes your table number at dinner (didn't catch her name) and Miguel, the bartender. They are a major credit to the team! The rooms are beautiful, very clean and plenty of space. The pools and outside areas were great, lovely scenery, plenty of sun beds, and very tidy. The food and drink were always delicious with plenty of choice! It is a little out of the way to the beach and located up a hill, we walked the first day and this was fine for us but older people or people with mobility issues may find it a bit difficult. Taxis are available from reception, which cost us about 8 euros to the beach. There are a lot of steps in the resort, and our room was quite high up. Again, this was fine for us, but it may impact others. It was my husbands birthday while we were there and he received a gift and they sang happy birthday and brought a cake for him without us even mentioning about his birthday. It was so lovely, and everyone really went above and beyond! Overall, it was an absolutely incredible experience and I will recommend to family and friends! We will definitely be back as we were so gutted to leave! Thank you everyone for making this a holiday we will never forget 🥰

Chloe McKenna

Where do I even begin. This hotel went above and beyond for me and my boyfriend when we stayed. This holiday was booked for a birthday celebration for the pair of us. From the day we arrived to the day we left the service was nothing but excellent, you should be proud of yourselves. They surprised us with cake and singing happy birthday during the even meal, was shocked to say the least. We also got given envelopes that gave us a surprise which we enjoyed. The staff are so lovely and accommodates us and our needs. Always there to be help and very friendly. The rooms were perfect and very clean, beds were very comfortable. However, one thing to note if you have thick hair bring your own hairdryer, took me 40 minutes to an hour each night to dry my hair. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone, cannot fault anything. Very happy indeed

Just spent a week there all inclusive and really enjoyed the stay. Grounds are clean, pools are great as are the staff. Foods got plenty of variety and always kept topped up. Situated top of the hill with nice views from the room, bit of trek to the town but the exercise did me good. Plenty of bars and restaurants locally. Only gripe with the place was the ready made cocktails which were almost alcohol free

Inga Ved

I was there one week ago. I was very disappointed with my stay at this hotel. Even though the grounds are beautiful and well-kept, and the two-story rooms with kitchens are spacious, many problems made my stay unpleasant. Room: The inside stairs were steep and made of stone, which felt unsafe, especially for kids or older people. Also, I saw two cockroaches in the bathroom, which is unacceptable for any hotel. Staff: The service was not good. The staff were unfriendly and slow to help with issues. Checking in took a long time, and I had to wait a lot before getting my room key. Restaurant: This was the worst part of my stay. The restaurant’s ventilation didn’t work well, so there was always a burnt oil smell, which ruined my appetite. Plus, after eating there, my clothes and hair smelled like old burnt oil until I showered and changed. The food quality was bad: I saw rotten fruits and apples with stickers still on them, making me question their cleaning and hygiene. The food tasted so bad that I had heartburn during my whole stay—something I never had before or after. Spa: In addition to the issues I previously mentioned, I decided to try the hotel’s spa service called “myofascial head and neck massage.” However, instead of the expected therapeutic effect, they just lightly scratched my head, and the pain didn’t decrease at all. It seems the woman performing the massage doesn’t know what fascia is. Using terms they don’t understand misleads guests and is deceitful. This service was a waste of money. Overall, I was happy to leave and will never return to this hotel. I don’t recommend staying here.

We spent 4 nights in Gran Oasis and it had everything we needed. The location is a 25 min walk from the main area of Las Americas. It's a nice walk however the walk back to the hotel is very steep. Taxis cost between €7 and €9. The kids water park is small but excellent, we were there in low season and our son had the place to himself. The lifeguard,Marina was such a lovely lady and encouraged our son to join in with everything. We found all staff great in the hotel. Our room was two levels with plenty of space and very clean. We did B&B and found this perfect for us, plenty of options at breakfast. The pools are heated and there was absolutely no shortage of sun beds however I can imagine during high season it's quite busy. We didn't attend any of the shows however from what we saw, they appeared to be very entertaining. There was a mix of families and groups at the resort which was a nice atmosphere.

UNSAFE and UNHYGIENIC. My friend and I are two young women who were travelling alone and decided to book here under the impression it is a 4 star hotel. It is clearly not up to that standard at all. We were awoken in the middle of the night by strange men from the adjoining room who had drunkenly entered ours. Although we had checked earlier to ensure the side door was locked, it has been unlocked and left open by the housekeeping staff enabling them to enter our room. We managed to chase them out but could hear them talking about trying to re enter our room and we felt very unsafe especially as the front door to our hotel room didn’t latch properly so we ended up having to change rooms in the middle of the night which was terrifying and inconvenient. We also saw cockroaches crawling over the plates at the buffet in the restaurant. The night concierge was kind and quickly changed our room but when we spoke to customer services in the morning she was unhelpful and kept telling us we should’ve made sure to latch the adjoining entrance door. She refused to give us a partial refund or cancel the rest of our stay and we just got a drinks voucher instead which was of no use to us after the awful experience we had. Furthermore the whole hotel is very dated and dirty, and you cannot sleep at night as there is no soundproofing. We could clear hear the loud music of the clubs as if we were outside and we could hear our neighbours talking, and doing other things in the night as clearly as if they were in the room with us. Not only did we feel unable to rest but we also felt on edge and unsafe the whole time. I highly suggest you look elsewhere for your stay, especially for the prices this hotel charges.

WORST NIGHTS SLEEP MONEY CAN BUY! If you enjoy a good night's sleep do not come here. As much as I appreciate the hotel can't control noise levels in the area they could at least make this apprent in marketing or try and sound proof the rooms. The noise is unbearable from the local bars and clubs. This hotel is only suitable if you enjoy going out at 11 pm, getting off your face on booze and coming in at 6 am in the morning, or are profoundly deaf. The only hours it is quiet is 8am until midday. The hotel will tell everybody that it's the vibrant area, but I don't think wearing earplugs every night and still hearing thumping bass from nearby bars and getting no sleep fun. Surely a fundamental point of a hotel is somewhere to sleep at NIGHT?! Just a warning do your local research as I clearly didn't. The hotel is in serious need of a refurbishment as it's very dated. Apart from that the staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast wasn't bad at all. But never again...

Sharon Boyd

Here at the moment, in block B, floor 10 facing the sea, noise from karaoke across the road until 11.30pm but it's grand and good songs. Silent after that. Great night's sleep. Room lovely, very clean, beds made and cleaned daily. Whole place is spotless, ok carpets a bit stained but that doesn't affect holiday. We are all inclusive and food is amazing, huge variety. Food available from 7.00am until 9.15pm. Pool area and snack bar is great. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Little supermarket attached, as well as a great hairdressers/beauty salon, which I would recommend. Highlights, cut and blow dry is less than half the price of that in Ireland. Situated right on the beach and walk way. Would highly recommend this place and would return.

Joanna Brackley

We was here last week, didn’t want to leave.The staff was very helpful answered every question. Our room was basic but had everything we needed, loved the shower and had the most beautiful view of the ocean, we could hear music most nights but it didn’t affect our sleep. And im a light sleeper, sea air must of knocked me out. food was lovely just I find the breakfast abit cold at times. But loads to choose from. We would definitely go back in the future. Thank you for a lovely stay 🙂

Gualter Semedo

I recently stayed at Sol Tenerife, and my experience was a mix of positives and negatives. Positives: The breakfast was excellent, offering a wide variety of options, fresh ingredients, and good quality food. It was definitely one of the highlights of the stay. The pools were well-maintained and enjoyable, providing a nice spot to relax during the day. The staff, especially those working during breakfast, were friendly, attentive, and always ready to help, which made the mornings even more pleasant. Negatives: One of the biggest downsides was the noise from the nearby bars, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. The loud music and party atmosphere continued late into the night. The noise inside the hotel was also an issue. People—possibly not even guests—were knocking on doors, shouting in the corridors, and generally causing disturbances, which was frustrating. The rooms and bathrooms felt old and in need of renovation. While they were functional, the outdated decor and worn-out facilities took away from the overall comfort. Overall, Sol Tenerife has some great aspects, particularly when it comes to breakfast, pools, and staff. However, the noise levels and the condition of the rooms make it less ideal for those looking for a peaceful and comfortable stay. If you're a light sleeper, this might not be the best choice.

Tiffany Brierley

Just leaving a 5 night stay, we booked with our friends and had an apartment per couple. On arrival, we were given an upgrade to 1 bed apartments from studios, check in was smooth - we arrived early so was allowed to store our luggage and head to the pool. Apartments very clean, spacious and equipped with what you need in the kitchen. The only thing I personally struggled with was how cold the apartment was in the evening. I asked for a heater at the reception but it's not something they provided. The pool areas are clean, tidy, lots of seats and loungers, no fighting for a seat. The staff all fab, clearly happy to work there and very pleasant. The location is great, with the shops and restaurants on your doorstep, a 15 minute walk to the beach with more shops etc. The market is across the road, every Thursday and Saturday morning which is nice and makes the area much busier on these mornings, otherwise it's very calm and chilled out. We went self catering so can't comment on the food, but the drinks were good (very generous with the alcohol!). The entertainment every evening is a nice touch, something different each evening to suit various ages. Checkout is at 12pm, so with a later flight it is tough. However, you have the luggage store and you can book the use of a shower room for 25 mins to freshen up before your flight. We all really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Jason Duggan

it is a really nice hotel clean and tidy. I would definitely highly recommend making sure you have air conditioning as not rooms do not have them. cleaners come on a daily basis to the room. The bars are rather good. The pool was a fantastic size and location for the sun. food was not too bad what you wood expect really with a all inclusive. location I would say is OK right next to a shopping centre.Lots of other shops as well. the biggest problem I would have to say is the day you check out if you have a late flight.They take your wrist bands and deactivate key cards to enter the hotel at 12pm which I have never had at any resort or hotel i have stayed at. other than that highly recommended

Adam 'Twenny' Sheffield

Fantastic hotel. The pool was large, and not too cold considering we went in January! It's worth mentioning the entertainment (was ok) will keep you awake if you're room is around the large pool! We went down and enjoyed it for a few nights, but some nights we stayed in, and it was far too loud even with windows and doors closed. Worth keeping in mind if you have children trying to sleep!

Jen Waiting

Lovely hotel in a great location with friendly,helpful staff,we didn't want to leave today. Close to bars,shops&amenities&not too far to walk to the beach. By far the best hotel we've stayed in for cleanliness&spacious rooms. Food&drinks were what you'd expect from all inclusive&lots of sunbeds. The only negatives would be the poor evening entertainment&the fact they take your wristbands off at 12noon check out so the all inc stops. If you have a late flight this would be an issue! We would definitely return&recommend

Mark Redmond

Excellent stay, we were given a free upgrade to the superior suite on the ground floor opposite the swimming pool...Great selection for breakfast (we stayed B&B) .. Entertainment in the evening was good but Friday night was fantastic...definitely stay at this hotel again ..Staff very helpful.

Sonia Parks

The hotel has exceeded expectations, the interior is really impressive and maintained to a really great standard. Lots of lovely terraces and quiet areas. Gardens are beautiful. Food generally good. The animation team are brilliant, special mention for Ricky, Anton and Melissa who we got to know. One downside was none of the large pools had a shallow area and one of our party was unable to use them being a non swimmer and only 5 foot. The hydrotherapy pool was a really great feature which we enjoyed.

Dean D

A great family holiday in the sun, the hotel was perfect, the rooms were clean. Food was good (but a bit limited on variations). Plenty of sunbeds by the pools, entertainment was excellent with great variety, especially liked the Kenyan Boys and Rock Travellers as these were my favourite. This was all hosted by the great Ricky and Anton from the Animation team, who were very friendly, welcoming, and inclusive (without being too pushy if you didn't want to do the activities).

Mindaugas Mateika

Don’t book any excursions down the stairs, they’re outsourced and terrible. You’ll be driving on old non-ventilated buses 90% of the time. Also don’t book transfer from hotel to airport, it’s cheap but it’s outsourced to excursions firm, it will be late, it will be stressful. Couple such things can ruin your whole holiday in otherwise pretty good hotel.

Anna Kwiatkowska

My favorite place on earth! two wonderful stays behind me. the hotel is beautiful, spacious with beautiful vegetation! the food is delicious! the service in the hotel and in the restaurant is top notch! I will recommend this place to my loved ones and I am already waiting for my next visit there!

Maarja Paomees

A fantastic hotel that truly exceeds expectations with its excellent service and attention to detail. The rooms are immaculate, cleaned thoroughly every day, and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxing, making it a perfect choice for both business and leisure travelers. What truly sets this hotel apart is the exceptional staff. They are not only professional but also incredibly friendly and attentive. No matter what questions or concerns you have, they go out of their way to assist and ensure your stay is as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Whether it’s a special request, local recommendations, or just a friendly smile, the team is always ready to help. Overall, this hotel combines outstanding service, cleanliness, and comfort, making it a memorable experience for every guest. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable stay. Special thanks for Carlos David who served us on New Year's Eve. His smile never left his face.

Georgina Hill

What an amazing week we have had at the Labranda Suites, the room and service has been absolutely amazing, especially from Alejandro at the Bubbles Bar who provided us with helpful advice for our excursions and speedy service every evening with our drinks. The animation team were friendly and the events were so much fun and also nice that there are adult-only events too! Although an extra cost, we thoroughly enjoyed our visits to the sunset champagne bar which had a spectacular view and a great selection of cocktails. The rooms are spacious and comfy and well-maintained and the location is a stones throw away from anything you could or would need. Thank you for making my first time in Tenerife so fantastic and I do hope to visit again in the future!

Kay Brackett (Vikingpurplepenguin)

We had a lovely family holiday here Feb 2025. On arrival we were upgraded to a larger suite. Reception staff were a little slow, and the staff at the pool bar on the family side could have been a bit friendlier but overall a fantastic place to stay, only a quick walk downhill to the beach. Loved it and my kids had to be dragged out of the pool every day. Having an adult side and a family side to the hotel is wonderful - I didn't have to worry that my children were annoying anyone at any point. Plus it created an escape for me to go enjoy rooftop yoga without the children as it was on the adult side. I'd highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

Raluca Mirancea

We stayed in a family suite room for 7 nights in Jan 2025. We enjoyed our stay, the staff is very friendly, the food is very good and with a lot of options for all tastes. The entire hotel is very clean, the rooms are cleaned very well. It was my daughter’s birthday and they surprised us by letting in the room a mini cake, some drinks a birthday card. It was so nice from their side. The night entertainment is nice also, a mini disco for kids every evening followed by different activities - bingo, magic show, games, karaoke, circus, etc. The only thing that was not well though was the game nights - the games are chosen to get 2 men in the final so can drink beer quickly in the final which is not fair for the ladies. But the entertainment team is really nice, they share a lot of positive energy and most of them seem to really enjoy their job. Kudos to Rachelle and Johnny, and to the lady with the magical show and the circus team. Overall we had a good stay and we recommend to others.

Mike Nefkens

Have to agree with the previous poster, surprised others haven’t mentioned it before, the music is LOUD, it’s like trying to sleep in a bar. Bring earplugs if you’ve already booked and maybe they will help a bit, but if you want a relaxing / peaceful holiday, I’d recommend checking reviews thoroughly and look elsewhere. Shame as it has potential, rooms are eOK, staff are friendly, but, not everyone wants loud music in their room all evening.

Belinda Parkes

Great hotel in good location. We were half board and the food was ok. Good animation team and entertainment most days. Lots of available sunbeds. Swimming pool clean and warm enough. The reception staff were great upon checking in but didn't know how the paying for drinks worked in the restaurant being half board. Seemed a bit strange. We had a good time. The rooftop bar was brilliant, amazing sunsets and the staff up there were fantastic. Nice to sunbathe in the day as well, when the bar was closed. ( Adults only)

Barbara Dempsey

If Carlsberg did hotels . . . Excellent in every respect. The staff throughout the complex were so friendly and helpful, (special mention to Julia in the Spa and all the reception staff especially Carmel/Carmen and a very tall gentleman who spent the holiday writing directions for me on maps!) The food was delicious, fresh and varied, and for those, like my husband who likes his mouth burnt off, there are microwaves. We didn’t book the speciality restaurants because we were only staying for a short time and they were booked, but we could have if there had been a free slot, for €15 per head, which is still incredible value. (They are free in the inclusive package if you are staying for at least a week). Everywhere, inside and out, was scrupulously clean and the cleaning staff were very courteous and friendly. We had access to a lovely quiet lounge where there were nibbles, drinks, tea, coffee, and a lovely calm atmosphere, which we really appreciated. I’ve no idea why we qualified for this treat, but we appreciated it! An absolute gem of a find, and hopefully we’ll return soon. We frequently stay in Tenerife and have never had a bad experience but this hotel was a definite 5* and ten minutes from the airport.

We booked 6 nights all inclusive at the Alua Atlantico. Checking etc was all very good and smooth, when we tried to book one of the a la carte restaurants of which there are three we were told as we were only there 6 nights we were not 'eligible' you have to be there 7 nights! There was an alternative... Pay €15 per person for the restaurant of choice. The buffet restaurant did provide a wide array of food, including a salad table, two soup dishes, pasta dishes plus two dishes cooked whilst you wait. There was always something you could find to eat but sometimes the food was lukewarm from being out too long. A wide selection of desserts were also available Rooms were clean, well looked after very the cleaning staff, the bar staff were always attentive to your needs when supplying the all inclusive drinks Entertainment was a bit mediocre and having to sit through a junior disco thrashing out some music was sometimes painful. As the holiday was booked only a few weeks before, it served the purpose of a relaxing / recharge the batteries holiday. Would we return? Probably not.

Exceptionally clean room. The rooms had everything I needed. I didn't notice the fridge until I left though. The easy to pull out drying rails on the balcony were a nice thought too. The rooms were cleaned to a very high standard every day and tea & coffee topped up. The nice touch of two free bottles of water were appreciated. There was also cold water available from dispensers around the hotel. All the staff I came across were so friendly & efficient. I was all-inclusive and the food was amazing with a very wide choice with daily changes to the menus. I saw a lot of negative reviews about food not being hot enough, which is just not true. And anyway, I saw at least one easily accessible microwave to heat to required liking if necessary. The facilities were superb. I used the indoor pool every day. There was always available sun beds and outside pools were lovely. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel and hope to come back again one day.

Very clean room, cleaned every day. The hotel is clean and well kept. More than enough sun beds to go around. There’s enough choice of food, so you can find something for everyone, tea, coffee, snacks and drinks available all day. We were there for 11 days and enjoyed our stay, we spent a lot of it at the adult pool, as we went without kids. It was quieter, for us.

Wonderful hotel - spotlessly clean all around including the he room, bathrooms, pool area. Good size bedroom for 2 adults and one child. Cleaned every day and fresh towels. Food was excellent, always something you will like. Pools are fantastic. The entertainment team - excelent! Good job guys and thank you for keeping up busy with different activities all day long. Overall a lovely holiday, well organized, friendly staff. Thank you everyone!

We had a fantastic holiday and will definitely go back! The location is very nice (close to Los Cristiano's port/beach - which we loved). We rented a car and easily went everywhere from the location. Our accommodation was a huge 2 bed apartment (a bit dated but clean) with a terrace looking to the ocean, beautiful view. The food was good with plenty of choices but often cold. The location has 3 pools which are very nice. There is a shop just in front of the reception open until late so very handy. Service very nice, helpful staff (all speak English) and good entertainment in the evening. Kids enjoyed it very much! Overall very nice place, we ll go back soon! Thank you so much for everything!

The hotel is in a very quiet location and is only 25 minutes walking to the promenade and beach. But the hotel offers free transfer during the day to the beach that is great. They have 3 pools and a lot of activities during the day and night for adults and kids. Staff is very nice, big shout out to Hector Diaz that left me a surprise for my birthday. Breakfast was good and loads of options.

Firstly the room we had was spacious and clean. It had a large balcony overlooking the pool. Stayed 7 days, housekeeping came on the forth day offering clean towels but not clean sheets. Plenty of choice at breakfast. Entertainment every night. Personally I think it's more of a family orientated hotel. The location of the hotel is at the top of a very steep hill, not ideal, but good for views. Overall despite some shortfalls I enjoyed my stay.

Went for 4 nights self catering stay. Apartments are big and clean with fridge, microwave etc. Staff was helpful and friendly. Complex is quite big so it might be difficult to find your way around. Hotel is located on top of the hill so on way back from town you have to climb quite a few steps or pay 5 euro for a taxi.

Everything looks clean and nice outside but inside its not that as advertised. Few things I experienced: 1. Hotel staff are very nice and helpful. 2. Food even repetitive, it was very good. 3. Too up-hill but Taxi is around 5€ from the city centre so all good. 4. Walls are super thin + balcony door are not sealed so you could hear everything from the room next to ours, they dont even need to speak loud. 5. Beds are super hard, barely could rest, like I was sleeping on the park bench 6. Rooms are cleaned just once per week of stay which I find a bit too much as the cleanness is not remarkable. All in all, good for the money, but I would go somewhere else next time for sure.

Superb service, they were super willing to help book excursions and other activities. Easy to get in touch with using whatsapp and the reception. We had problems with lights in our room, but the personnel fixed it. Room was otherwise good, but super bright bed lights, lighting was overall poorly planned. The bathroom was charming. The balcony had a nice view. Breakfast was superb, but the food court was poorly planned, and very chaotic when people were rushing through a small bottle neck. We also didn't notice until day two that there were coffee makers back in the room. Up to 10 people were sometimes in line to the coffee machines, which we thought was the only place to get coffee at (and I assume most other people also do). But breakfast overall had a wide variety of everything, good stuff. Location couldn't have been better. Maybe not the place to go if you want to have a quiet moment at the pool

Unsanitary, outdated, dusty, & smelly wrenk bathroom. Don’t bother pay for half board as dinner doesn’t include beverages which I’ve never heard or seen in my life! If you pay for dinner, you can eat as much low budget cheap food as you like but you have to pay for drinks which is ridiculous!! I ended up having to go out and eat at restaurants outside of the hotel which caused me to spend more money than intending to because the dinner buffet is a joke🤮. Breakfast was good as it included beverages at no extra cost. The staff members were friendly and helpful. The location is great as it’s a couple minutes walk to everything. This hotel just needs updating, deep cleaning and to majorly improve the dinner buffet offer and everything will be sweet!

Typical large Spanish seafront hotel - ageing but functional, and in a prime location on the main strip close to one of the best beaches. Well designed - every room has a balcony with pool or sea view and most get sun all day. Bedrooms are set towards the quieter back end of the hotel. Our room was basic but clean, with what looked like a recently re-fitted kitchen area, complete with brand new filter coffee machine, which we loved because we have one at home. Also the shower was hot and powerful with free hand wash and shower gel provided. We didn't eat at the hotel but they lay on breakfast and dinner and had lunch offers, such as a free drink with a serving of paella. There is a large and sunny outdoor seating area for diners. Didn't use the pool as preferred going into the sea, which was warm with big waves. But we used the sunbeds around the pool and they are very strict in not letting anyone put towels down until they have completed jet washing the paving at 9 am. You don't need to be there bang on 9 but beds around the pool were generally all taken by about 9:10. The whole outdoor area is massive so you will find a sunbed somewhere whatever time of day. There is a very good little supermarket connected to the lobby where you can buy beer on tap, freshly brewed coffee, toasties, croissants, fresh milk, bread, juice, fruit, canned beer and soda, crisps, etc etc. Basically you don't need to leave the hotel but there are lots of restaurants nearby. Fresh sea bass and paella at Restaurant Mayte were very good, and Pipo does excellent tapas. There is also a launderette a short walk from the hotel and you will find bars close to the beach selling beer for €1.50 a pint. My only real criticism is the mattresses were very very hard. It was more like sleeping on the base of a divan bed but we got through it. Overall this is a clean and well-run hotel and you will have a good time here so long as you don't arrive expecting to find luxury.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They helped my boyfriend locate his lost luggage. Alberto at the check out desk was very friendly and extremely helpful during our stay. The location of the hotel was near the beach and my room had a perfect view of the ocean. I recommend you come here and enjoy the beautiful sunsets from your balcony.

Great find for location right on front so easy walk both directions, but stop few mins up hill, rooms are very dated with old furniture sofa was broken beds seen better days, view was amazing, pool was nice but prefer beach 2 hot tubs but one was broken 😞 staff were all lovely helpful and friendly especially as we had some rather noisy neighbours but was very quickly sorted by security. Breakfast good lots of choice with fresh fruit, hot breakfast could have been hotter, code machine always a long queue. Yes I would stay again as its perfect location.
