Hotels near Centro Comercial Los Principes, Province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife

Booked a full board and food was up to expectations. However do note that drinks (alcohol, soft drinks and even water) are charged separately even under full board. The bed in the room was adequate and had a great unobstructed view of the coast.

Food – we were half board and the food was always of good quality and variety. There was catering enough for people with more adventurous tastebuds as well as more beige ones too. The restaurant was lovely itself as was the rest of the hotel, very well maintained and always being cleaned by the staff. At breakfast you can sit on the terrace looking out over the Atlantic which is an incredible way to start the day! We did have an instance of one particularly grumpy waiter though this was an exception not a rule. Room – the room was very big and we had ample space for everything and was very homely. The bed was very big (not overly comfy though it did the job – 7/10), and the sofa/living space was very comfortable. The private balcony was a great feature, and we often left the sliding doors open overnight to let air in and to hear the sound of the Atlantic as white noise. The bathroom was plenty big enough, and the colourful shower was a nice touch! The wardrobe was also more than big enough which was a nice surprise! Cleanliness – everywhere around the hotel was immaculately presented, I believe the hotel was renovated a few years ago but everything just appears to be really well kept and maintained as we always saw staff cleaning and maintaining throughout the day. Genuinely one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in and contributed to a wonderful holiday, especially as we did spend a large amount of time in and around the hotel. The area surrounding the hotel was nice too, one of the nearby hotels was a bit louder with music etc in their pool area, though wasn’t really noticeable from the hotel/our room. Vibe – the overall aesthetic of the hotel was a very pleasant and vibrant atmosphere to be in, in the pool area and on the rooftop bar there was always music and lots of comfortable seating with umbrellas to get out of the sun if you want to. A really nice hotel which we would absolutely love to come back to and would definitely look to stay in a Macaronesian Hotel elsewhere in the Canaries if they are all of this standard!

Apartment is very comfortable room, with balcony and table, indoor table, all kitchen comfort. Family is done almost every day. Very clean, very friendly staff, including at the reception. We were next to the restaurant on the floor, so a little noise in the evening, but next to enjoy the animations. The residence is well placed to walk in the city, car parked outside at a maximum of 5 minutes in adjacent streets. the staff explains how to go there ... Very happy with our stay.

The room was on the ground floor with poor lighting. But since it was for one night only, it was fine. The pool is very good and the breakfast varied. We were able to take advantage of the day because we were able to stay on the premises after checkout and they even stored our bags for us. They were very kind.

Everything corresponds to the description and photographs, clean, cozy, friendly staff, nearby there is a store, a kiosk with excursions, a bus station, a beach (waves, always a red flag), you can walk to the city beach with swimming pools, the nature is very beautiful, everything is super.

If you're a wheelchair user, please make sure to let the hotel know with plenty of notice. I use a wheelchair that doesn't fold and I couldn't get into my room without taking the wheels off as there's a wardrobe immediately as you enter the room. Fortunately, I am able to walk and only use my chair for longer distances.l, but for others, this could be a real issue. We stayed in that room for one night and they were happy enough to swap me into a different room in the morning. That first night was awful. There were concerning dips in the floor and the noise from being next to the ocean was so loud, plus the wind rattles the windows, it sounded like I was lost at sea. The receptionist was lovely and upgraded us to a family room, no issues, though I hope for the sake of others that there are double rooms available that are more accessible, not just family rooms. The family room was luckily on the other side, so it was totally silent. The breakfasts were quite stale and the milk for the cereal was warm so stuck with the crepes every morning. We did have dinner here one evening but unfortunately, when I got to the dessert stand, there was a cockroach crawling on the food. They were very apologetic and gave both of us a glass of wine as an apology, but then still had to pay full price on the meals. Fortunately, we did bring an extension cord as there weren't many sockets and not all of them even worked. There were no ceiling lights, just plug in lamps, which made it quite dim at night. The pool is barely heated but it takes a few seconds for your body to acclimatise. The mattress is quite firm and I found the pillows were far too high. Also beware that the hotel is on a VERY steep hill. Luckily, I can actually walk quite well in hot weather but I was definitely out of breath when I got from the bottom of the hill to the hotel. The WiFi is awful and I ended up just using my data. The zoo is well worth visiting though and it's a very short distance away. As you come into the hotel, it's got a huge lovely lobby which was lovely to sit in, so it really surprised me how poor everything else was. I have no ill intentions and the staff were lovely but I have to be honest.

The restaurant has been renamed and revamped. The gym is brilliant and the air conditioning was very welcome by the end of my workout. The wicker furniture on the Ocean Breeze Terrace needs replacing but does not detract from the overall experience. Some of the entertainment on the Ocean Breeze leaves a lot to be desired as mentioned by a lot of our family and friends. The gardens were the perfect place to hold our Vow Renewal Ceremony and the staff were utterly brilliant, friendly and welcoming. We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our Vow Renewal or a better holiday. Many of our guests were crying when they had to go home. The pool is inviting and the pool activities were great to watch and take part in.
