Baobab Suites

Isolated at the top of a hill, at the top of Adeje, the location is dreadful. There is no minimart or even a lollipop to be bought anywhere near, and considering we were in a self catering apartment, the lack of groceries near by other than a 15min walk down a giant hill (which you have to walk back up with said groceries) is bizarre, especially where the food options are limited. The hotel is also designed without health & safety in mind, with multiple tripping hazards where ramps are immediately alongside steps & stepped walkways are concealed by sand pits. We were also without hot showers for 4 days before the problem was resolved. On the plus side, The Buffet breakfast is fab and the cleaning staff & Camilla in reception are exemplary at their job.

What an amazing place this is. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by Corina and Gerardo who couldn't have been more helpful. The hotel is absolutely beautiful and modern. We stated in the 1 bedroom suite with whirlpool. The room was lovely. Island kitchen, huge balcony with 2 day beds and dining table. The bedroom was very spacious with a large wardrobe for 2. Taking our 2 year old they also provided a spare bed. They also have a soft play room with 2 really friendly child minders there who were always doing arts and crafts, making balloons and making the space much more than just a play room. There are far too many positives with this hotel to list but what really makes it are the staff. I wanted to make it a special occasion as I was proposing to my girlfriend and Camilla the guest experience coordinator was just fantastic. Whatsapping, and even came in on her day off to arrange the special occasion. Her and Gerardo decorated the full room with rose petals, champagne, chocolate and balloons. The also filmed us coming in and arranged music. Camilla made the experience so special for us. Having stayed in 5 star hotels in the past I always find guest experience managers to be very in your face and salsey but Camilla was so sincere and genuine. Her involvement in the proposal was just as special for her. She is an asset to the hotel. Gerardo who is just brilliant showed us up to the room and told us everything we needed to know about the location. Javier was brilliant with restaurant recommendations every night when we were stuck for ideas. There is a large hill leading up to the hotel from the town but the hotel have that sorted. They give you free taxis down to the beach and the shopping centre from 9-5. They have 2 unbelievable restaurants in Kar Bon and Char. Where we ate and were really impressed with. As well as the breakfast buffet. Great choice and the food was tasty. All round a 10/10 experience and we will definitely be back.

Stayed at the Baobab Suites for a week's holiday to Tenerife in one of their Divinity Lago rooms (1 bed suite with a hot tub). Firstly, the view from our balcony was absolutely 5 star, well worth the money we paid for the hotel. It was amazing seeing the mountain range one side, and having a sea view the other side and especially nice looking at this view at night in the hot tub! We loved the breakfast boxes - would highly recommend getting those and eating them in your suite as it is all locally sourced products from around the island, super fresh, and amazing it is all included in the price. We did also visit the breakfast buffet a couple of days and that was good too. I wish there were a few vegetarian alternatives for the sausages/bacon but to be honest there was still plenty to eat and we didn't go hungry. For dinner options we went to the BB Lounge on our arrival day and ordered room service from them as well during the stay. I would say the food is okay, and we weren't too blown away by it. Staff were very friendly and accommodated when we wanted to make a meat dish vegetarian though which was nice. The room service cost of an additional 20 Euros for them to walk it round to the room is a bit steep in my opinion though. We had a hire car for the duration of our stay and they kindly reserved a spot in the underground car park for us. If you don't have a hire car, reception will call taxi's up for you whenever you need and they arrive promptly within a couple of minutes which is nice. For certain areas as well you can get a voucher for those taxi journey's to be free too although it seems quite a limited area as we couldn't get into central Adeje for free by cab. Staff were very friendly and helpful when we needed them to be, and there were nice little touches like local chocolates left on our arrival day and departure day and a local bottle of wine. We did have a few small issues whilst there though which has stopped this being a 5 star review. Firstly there is cleaning every day and fresh towels which is nice, however the floors can still sometimes look a bit dirty and the indoor sofa and all the furniture on the balcony did look a bit grubby and could do with replacing or deep cleaning. The hot tub was fantastic but the first day we got there we pulled back the cover to find the cushions were grubby but more importantly that there was a yellow bacteria line all around the tub. We raised this with reception and someone did come out and clean this for us and then did visit every day. On our final day there the hot tub did start to smell a bit damp which could explain how the cushions on it were grimy and that build up occurred, so I don't think the water is changed in there for the duration of your stay. Secondly, we had a couple of issues with the door lock for our suite. The first time this happened my partner had to run downstairs 3 times to reception as they didn't seem to want to send someone and eventually they did send a maintenance man up with us to take a look at the lock. Lastly, we booked massages at the hotel and we received on the day notice that they needed to move one of them due to a member of staff having broken her foot the day before and her colleague being completely booked out the rest of the day so they couldn't accommodate both. Completely understandable and we did manage to cancel these free of charge because we had plans the rest of the week so we couldn't quite fit them in. But I feel perhaps more staff in the wellness centre might have helped this situation and it was a shame we didn't get to experience them. Overall it was a special stay with a gorgeous view and we certainly miss it now we're back in rainy England. It is in a nicer part of Tenerife with great restaurants in La Caleta within a 5 minute drive, and close enough to be able to get to central Adeje without being in it so you get that separation. Would recommend.

We went here for our family summer holidays and had the best time ever. This hotel is just amazing and we didn't want to leave. Spotlessly clean, amazing food and the best staff in the world that make you feel like you're a rock star. Rooms are cleaned to perfection everyday and well stocked up with fresh towels, toiletries, tea, coffees and so much more. Outstanding view from our room which we had the suite with its own private pool and beach on our balcony and cannot recommend this enough for a touch of privacy and chill time for the family. The BB bar is fantastic too with amazing views also with the best staff in Tenerife that make you feel so welcome to serve you great food and great drinks which is also the same with the downstairs breakfast restaurant amazing staff and food with sooooo much selection of top class foods. At reception you have the most wonderful, welcoming, super friendly staff that are so helpful with any of your needs. Also a big shout out to Camilla ❤️ who is just the loveliest, most pleasant person in the whole world with the biggest brightest smile😁, a real joy to talk to every morning and made us all feel extremely special and is an asset to the hotel... I could go on and on about all the great things about the hotel, but you got to book it and get the full amazing customer experience for yourself. Hotel baobab is meant to be 5 Star we give it 6 star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. We look forward to coming to see everyone again, from the Jackson's @ TE 011.
