This is a very large, spacious, and beautiful setup that is away enough from the really busy part of the town, but still very reachable. Everything for our stay was excellent.

Excellent hotel and staff
Can only recommend this excellent hotel. Nice room, nice facilities and nice surroundings. The quality of the food in the restaurant was surprisingly good.
All staff were amazing: Professionel, serviceminded, friendly incl child friendly and smiling😊
Only some few wishes for improvement: Better quality of food in bar menu and shampoo + conditioner in the bathroom.

Lovely
Hello, this was a beautiful hotel. It is very clean and well designed. People are friendly and attentive to details. The pool area is lovely. Food is excellent; I would have preferred natural orange juice, although they have other natural juices. They had some vegetarian and gluten-free options. There is a library, a few games and the nightly entertainment was nice. The prices at the bar and buffet were very acceptable. We had a beautiful view of the ocean.
Overall, this was a lovely stay!

Some good, some bad but overall a welcoming stay
For a 4 star, top 100 hotel in the world, there were some experiences I had with it—good and bad.
Bad: the WiFi goes in and out quite a bit. Not sure if it’s just a bad connection or too many people using it at once but it has been down for multiple times during our 8 night stay. Make sure to have some shows and movies downloaded.
Bad: the shower floods easily. My wife used the handheld shower head since it spread less water onto the floor than the rainfall shower head. Whole bathroom floor is soaked if you use the rainfall head.
Bad: I’m not sure if it’s the hotel or if it’s because I’m American but there was no microwave anywhere in the hotel. If you got leftovers from one of the amazing restaurants down the street, you can’t heat it back up since there’s no microwave or toaster or anything of the such in the hotel. So if you go out to eat, make sure to eat it all or trash it when you’re done.
Good: the spa was absolutely fantastic. Everything was priced fairly for what you get and how long you get it for. The care of the massages and spa was unbeatable. Best spa my wife and I have ever gone to.
Good: although there are no microwaves in the hotel, there is breakfast buffet from 0800-1030, an outdoor bar open after that, dinner buffet from 1815-1945 or 2015-2145, and an indoor bar with live music each night at the same time. So there’s honestly no need to eat out sometimes and worry about driving or parking.
Good: the staff knows multiple languages.

Hôtel calme extrêmement propre dans quartier calme en hauteur de puerto de la cruz avec facilité de se garer gratuitement autour. Personnel très serviable, souriant et poli. Les femmes de ménages, au bar, à la piscine, à l'accueil, quelques personnels au restaurant(les dames, le petit jeune, les cuistos, le responsable). Nourriture bonne, soirées agréables. Piscine avec serviettes et coussins à disposition. Possibilité d'y aller sans vraiment d'horaires de restrictions. Hôtel très beau et très arboré. Accueil très réactif pour nous changer de chambre suite à un problème dans celle initiale. Merci pour ce très agréable et reposant séjour.

Cet hôtel mérite ses notes excellente. C'est beau, reposant, d'une propreté irréprochable, le personnel est très accueillant. Les repas de type buffet présente un large choix. Le menu est différent chaque jour et l'ensemble est de qualité. Petit point de détail: les boissons ne sont pas comprises dans le repas mais les tarifs sont très raisonnable.
Assurément un très bel établissement.

Vi var väldigt nöjda med vår tvåveckorsvistelse. Rymligt rum med utmärkta förvaringsutrymmen och som städades varje dag. Bra att dela med väninna (separata sängar (intill varandra) och ordentligt privat badrum). Stor balkong som även hade torkställning. Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Hotellet ligger, i vårt tycke utmärkt, i utkanten av La Paz-området. Det är lugnt och bra som utgångspunkt för bilutfärder (nära större väg – utan att den stör – och parkeringsplatser inom maximalt något kvarter om man inte vill använda hotellets garage). Dock ska man vara medveten om att brant ner till centrala Puerto de la Cruz (fin promenad längs havet om man går en liten omväg) och svag stigning även fram till närmaste centrum med restauranger och lokalbuss (max 10 minuters promenad i lugn takt). Hotellet har shuttlebuss till och från centrum vissa tider och taxi är billigt. Glöm inte att ta med schampo, balsam och hudlotion (gick inte att få ifjol; i år var vi förberedda så vet inte men det fanns inte i badrummet). Och säg till i receptionen om ni vill få behålla badrockarna även sista natten.
