Honest review for a perfect family break
We got back yesterday as a family of two adults and two kids under 7 - we absolutely loved it. We were half board for a week.
Having young kids, we were up early for breakfast and down early for dinner prior to the mini disco most nights. We laid in one morning, went down for breakfast at 9.30am and the queue was too long so we went out for a coffee and pastry - no problem! Because we were always early, we never experienced cold food, the choice was brilliant both for our slightly picky daughters and us (we’ve travelled a lot over Europe and Caribbean and this was by far the best hotel buffet for both breakfast and dinner we have had.)
Yes the pool might be a bit small for the size of the hotel but we found there was plenty of beds around the pool to be found, especially if you get there around lunch time when people left to eat. The renovations they’ve done are immaculate and the hotel is beautiful - we were so impressed. The highlight for us was the entertainment team. I’ll post last weeks schedule as an example but you can tell they genuinely love their jobs. There was always something going on in the day and the evening entertainment was so good for the kiddies, we really enjoyed the white party on Sunday night!
On the whole, we aren’t the type of people to return to somewhere once we’ve stayed, but we would highly reconsider for this hotel. We loved it and don’t want anyone being put off like we were prior to staying by the bad reviews!

Brilliant family holiday
This hotel really did impress us and was brilliant from start to finish.
The decor throughout the hotel, is absolutely perfect. The rooms are perfect and a really good size. The beds are comfortable and our air con was brilliant! There is so much storage space in the rooms for clothes, which we were surprised by. The only very minor problem we had in the room was the light in the middle of the room was low and my partner walked into several times. Also the curtains opened the opposite way to the balcony door, so the curtain was always in the way if you went on the balcony.
The staff at the hotel can't do enough for you, the reception staff are so helpful and friendly. The restaurant staff work so hard and try their absolute hardest to make sure everything is perfect. The entertainment team are fantastic with the children and our children really enjoyed joining in. The entertainment in the evenings could definitely be improved slightly.
The pool area, is a little bit on the small side however we loved the fact you couldn't go and get a sunbed until 9:30am and we never had a problem getting them, and there was 7 of us.
The food was great, however sometimes wasn't piping hot we normally didn't have a problem as we did go down to dinner slightly early. We enjoyed all the food we tried, the desserts were to die for! There was lots of choices and always something for everyone.
All in all, we are already looking for next year and we will definitely be returning!

Average. Should be 3 star not 4.
Let's start with positives. The price was okay. The rooms look nice and are clean with a small fridge. The staff are helpful. The complimentary siam passes and bustop right outside of the hotel was good. Negatives are as follows. The outside entertainment is very loud if your room is on the lower floors. And its on every night. The food was not great we did not enjoy much of it. We enjoy nice food but are not snobs with it but this was okay some nights and awful others (we had full board for a week). The wifi did not work in our room for what ever reason we dont know but worked everywhere else except the area in and around our room/floor they sent a "technician" but did not sort it. There isnt much to do other than the pool and kids club at the hotel except pretty basic evening entertainment (we did not use the kids club for our 5 year old daughter) The pool situation is the same as many and people que upto one hour before it opens to get sunbeds, leave them there all day while not using it as there is no system in place (I understand many hotels are like this) tbh we will never return. It was not terrible but was not good either. If the things that bothered us are likely to bother you dont go. If you want a okay price hotel for all inclusive to enjoy sitting by the pool all day drinking while your kids play and dont really care about good food or alot of noise stopping you from getting a good night's sleep then you will be fine. This is an honest review and I understand some people will like this hotel others will not. This is just to help the ones like us who will not. Seems more of a 3 star hotel if I am honest. We have stayed in tenerife several times and this hotel is last in terms of quality.
Sticky fingers
Things stolen . Don’t recommend.

Great family hotel
We travelled with 2 children (6 and 9 year old) and initially, I was concerned after a mix of reviews. However, we had a brilliant time! Hotel is kept clean and the refurb looks brilliant. Room - they are spacious and lots of space to unpack your belongings. We used the safe and had no issues with that. There’s a small fridge in there but was ideal for keeping drinks cold. Air con in the lounge and bedroom which was good as meant we could take the air pen off in the kids room but still have it on in the lounge for us. We were on the 3rd floor so used the lift now and then but I can imagine it might be a bit more difficult if you’re higher up and having to wait for a lift but there are 4. We had our room cleaned 2/3 times whilst there (7nights) through our choice. They don’t change the sheets but do remake the beds and get fresh towels. Location - took us 30 mins max to get from the airport to the hotel which was one of the main reasons we chose this hotel. It’s only a 10 minute walk to the beach and shops which was a nice way to break up the day. There’s a supermarket literally 3 minute walk away which we used to stock up on drinks and snacks throughout the day and in the room. Prices were really reasonable there too. There’s a free bus outside the hotel to take you to local attractions - we used it to get to aqualand. HIGHLY recommend this place for families. We barely queued for any slides and there’s so much there to suit all needs. Food - we thought it was spot on - there was always something for us to eat. We were half board and that was more than enough - we made sure we went to breakfast at about 9 (good time and not too busy) and then we went to dinner at about 6:30 - again a good time before it got too busy. Food was always hot and being replenished. Lots of choice, even for fussy eaters. Some nice themed nights too. I took a freezer bag with me so I could bring drinks and snacks round the pool - this saved us a lot of money rather than buying from the bar all the time. There’s no freezer compartment in the room but the freezer bag kept our drinks cool the whole day. Pool - this was my biggest concern as lots said it was small. Yes it’s not huge but it’s more than adequate - our children were very happy with it! Lifeguards are present and always walking around. Pool entertainment was good - kids enjoyed the water carpet and inflatable in particular. There were lots of different pool entertainment so depends if you want to join in or not! Yes there is a slight rush for sun beds BUT it’s nothing like other hotels where you’ve got to be up at the crack of dawn. They let you out about 9:30am to get sun beds. We only ever had 2 (one for me and one for husband) as our children were never out the pool long enough! Some people do ‘reserve’ more than they should but up to them. There were always beds available after lunch too. For example, we went on a boat trip one morning then had lunch in town. Got back to the hotel about 1 and there were plenty around. Entertainment - we LOVED the music bingo and family quiz. Lots of good entertainment. Kids club also had a great timetable. My two didn’t attend many but that’s because they’re basically fish and wanted to stay in the pool!
Overall - go with an open mind and just enjoy your holiday! ☀️
