Diamond Resorts Arona hotels

"The hotel has a U-shaped layout with a fairly small central area that felt overcrowded, making it difficult to relax and enjoy the space."

"The property is well maintained, clean and really good location. Swimming pools were heated which made them usable regardless of weather or outside temperature. Spa was great and had good availability when we were there. These were the highlights.. Staff was mostly friendly other than one or two at reception who were not rude but just didn’t care enough. The worst part was the food though. Breakfast was ok and saved mainly by the omelette counter and general staff being nice. Dinner was neither tasty nor had any major options. Drinks were not included but no free water as well which you had to pay for. If going there again I’d go with bed and breakfast option rather than half board. Overall a good property and experience."

"My wife and I loved this place, clean, well kept, beautiful pull area and the restaurant is great and has good prices. Near shopping plazas and not to far from the beach. We'll definitely come back "

"No major complaints, everything great, Minor issues, jacuzzi luke warm, onsite parking bonus but limited at night but managed to find some most days, Hot Water markers on shower and kitchen mixer taps need relabelling clearly as hot water goes from 50c to boiling hot within 3 seconds of turning on so be very careful or will get scolded if you turn on hot tap mixer by mistake first as not labelled clearly hot from cold. Other than tgat, all was good to excellent accomodation and facilities"

"Lovely stay at Alexande Gala. Room was spacious and clean. Plenty of space at the pool, although sadly some people would claim their spots early and not appear until the afternoon. Staff were friendly and helpful, had an issue with being overcharged on checkout but this was later resolved. Food was OK, a good range but not always to my taste or very warm. Spa was lovely on an overcast day. Central location, just off the beach. Plenty of bars and restaurants very nearby. Great spot to go for a walk to Costa Adeje or Los Cristianos. Only advice is to keep an eye on what you order, all purchases are added to your room and you pay at the end, you could easily overspend if you aren't careful."

"This Aparthotel has everything you need for a relaxing stay in Tenerife. The apartment is large, nearly all have a sea view (ours was obscured by tropical trees filled with beautiful tropical birds - a pleasant bonus). The pool really is filled with filtered seawater, which is emptied weekly, cleaned then refilled. When you swim out to the deep end (nearest to the coast line) you can see a beautiful view of Mount Teide on a clear day). The entertainment team offer relaxing poolside group stretch/pilates sessions most days, with stunning backdrops of the ocean/ pool & mountain all at once. Some afternoon light fun activities for families which include darts, boules, aquagym and themed fun by the pool most days (weather dependent of course). Excellent bus routes link this Aparthotel with the south airport (40 mins on the bus) which offers further routes around the island ((we took a bus to Santa Cruz for the day for museums and shopping & Playa de las Americas for sandy beach days ). The aparthotel is very close to supermarkets, pharmacies, excellent cafe's. A 5 minute walk greets you with a small Marina filled with sea-view restaurants for locally caught seafood specialties. Make a little effort with the language and you will be welcomed with open arms (not a Brits-abroad town). The aparthotel has a very small sandy beach next door which offers excellent snorkelling. The on-site restaurant has good quality food, evening live music and a really good daytime poolside menu."

"Great hotel. Room was beautiful - v spacious, clean and extremely well equipped with large terrace. 3 pool options. Preferred the main pool as the poolside bar there is great with good options for lunch. Entertainment was regular and the staff worked hard on this! Not so keen on the 2pm foam party but that’s a personal preference! Supermarket on site is excellent, gym/fitness centre is huge and breakfast has a wide choice. A very well serviced hotel . Approx 15-20 mins walk downhill to the centre with bars/restaurants en route Overall an excellent stay and I think this hotel would suit families with older & you get kids as well as groups of friends."

"Lovely hotel"

"The staff were very helpful and the place is clean however some areas are ready for a refurbish mainly the sunbeds by the pool. It’s lovely up there but the beds are a disgrace. Really comfy beds in the rooms and the hotel is very well situated. I keep going back so something must be good😊"
