The hype
Guests are obsessed with the 'Retreat' (adults-only) upgrades and the incredible breakfast spread, but many feel the standard rooms are showing their age.

Şu durumda rezervasyon yapın You want a self-contained, sun-drenched fortress of luxury where you never have to leave the property to find Michelin stars or a beach.
İnsanlar Neden Seviyorlar
- The 'Pink Palace' Moorish architecture is instantly iconic and Instagram-gold
- Access to M.B (2 Michelin stars) and Kabuki (1 Michelin star) on-site
- The funicular ride down to a semi-private golden sand beach
Hızlı Özet: It’s a sprawling, isolated compound that feels more like a wealthy Floridian retirement village than a Spanish cultural immersion—but the service is undeniable.
@Travelliketommy tarafından değerlendirildi: I stayed in this massive suite at The Ritz-Carlton Abama and honestly, I didn't want to leave. The terrace views over the golf course and ocean were unreal. It felt like our own private pink palace in Tenerife. Perfect for a romantic escape.

Reality check
Service at the pool can be painfully slow, with dirty cups sometimes left lingering on tables for an hour.
- You are a golfer (Abama Golf is world-class)
- You travel with kids but still want fine dining (Ritz Kids club is massive)
- You love a 'resort' vibe where everything is a golf-cart ride away
Temizlik & Bakım
8.5
- Housekeeping: Twice daily service is standard. Turn-down service includes a 'vanilla spray' on sheets that guests love.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally spotless marble, though some older bathrooms show grout wear. Renovated rooms are pristine.
- Maintenance: Exterior paint peels quickly in the salt air; constant touch-ups are visible. Some 'ugly bits' on the facade noted by guests.
- Linens & towels: Plush, heavy, and replaced aggressively. No complaints of thin or scratchy towels.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh flowers and signature scent. No musty odors reported in renovated rooms.

- Citadel Ocean View (High Floor): Best for dramatic sunsets and avoiding courtyard noise.
Kaçınılması gereken odalar
- Citadel Resort View rooms facing the inner courtyard (can be noisy during events)
- Villas near the main train route if you are sensitive to vehicle hum

“I would appreciate a room assignment away from the central Citadel courtyard to avoid event noise. If available, a high-floor Ocean View in the Citadel OR a ground-floor unit in the Villas/Retreat for direct pool access would be ideal.”

İçeri Sakıları
- ✨
Feed the Koi fish in the main pond at midday—staff provide the food and it's a hit with kids.
- ✨
The 'Retreat' pool offers complimentary soft drinks, beer, and cava all day; it's worth the room upgrade price for heavy consumers.
- ✨
Walk down to the beach but take the funicular back up; the walk up is steep and punishing in the sun.
Gitmeden önce bilmeniz gereken 5 şey
💡The 'funicular' breaks down occasionally, forcing a wait for a shuttle or a steep hike.
💡Tap water in Tenerife is safe but tastes terrible; the hotel provides bottled water, but stock up at a supermarket.
💡The architecture is stunning but the 'pink' paint fades fast in the sun; you might see painters working constantly.
💡You can hear the ocean from the villas, but the Citadel is too high up to hear the waves.
💡Room service prices are eye-watering—think €30+ for a club sandwich.
