Why People Love It
- Lush, botanical garden setting that genuinely feels 'green'
- Spacious villas with full kitchens and optional private plunge pools
- Peaceful vibe next to the golf course, away from the chaotic strip
Quick Take: A lovely, leafy family bubble that requires a shuttle bus or a healthy walk to see the actual ocean.
Reviewed by @revealstyle: I honestly fell in love with Tenerife staying here. Waking up to just the sound of birds and seeing that empty pool was the ultimate stress relief. It felt like a true home away from home, just way sunnier and calmer. Highly recommend for a mental reset.

Before you book
Good to know
- The hotel offers a free shuttle to Siam Park and the beach, but it runs on a fixed schedule.
- There is a small on-site market, but it's pricey—do a big shop at the HiperDino or Mercadona in town.
- The gym is outdoors—great for a breeze, bad for rainy days.
What to pack
- Refillable water bottle (essential for the filtration stations)
- Tupperware/Ziploc bags (to keep food ant-proof in the kitchen)
- Good walking shoes (the walk to Los Cristianos is pleasant but long)
Room Genie
Best picks
- Golf View Villas: These face the fairways and are significantly quieter than pool-facing units.
- Villas with Private Pool: Worth the splurge for families, but request one with a heated pool if visiting in winter.
Rooms to avoid
- Ground floor units near the main pool bar if you want afternoon naps.
- Villas near the recycling/trash area (can be noisy and smelly).
Room Request Genie – copy & paste
“I would appreciate a 'Golf View' villa on an upper floor if possible, to minimize ant issues and maximize privacy. Please avoid units directly adjacent to the main pool bar.”
