Gara Suites Golf & Spa

Luciane Priscila Perucelli Luz

We had a very pleasant stay! Highlights: The service provided by the staff was exceptional — everyone was friendly, helpful, and always smiling. The overall atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. Our room (080) was super spacious, with a huge bathroom and a fantastic shower — strong water pressure and plenty of hot water! The hotel itself is very large and well-kept, and we felt comfortable throughout our stay. Points to improve: The balcony door in room 080 doesn’t lock, which should be fixed for security. Parking is charged at €10 per night, it would be helpful to make that clear in advance. we really enjoyed our experience and would definitely recommend the hotel!

Large bedroom, huge bathroom and really big living room! The balcony in my suite was wrap-around and had really pleasant views across the golf course. I enjoyed a lovely full body massage in the spa and then sat in the whirlpool and sauna afterwards. The spa experience was, on balance, very pleasant but I think someone forgot to turn the steam room on that day as it was cold. Slightly less positive would be my breakfast buffet experiences.. the hot food is not always super nicely-cooked and it was often cold when I got to it (and I had various breakfast times). If you're very careful with what you choose, however, you can really fill yourself with things you'll enjoy (if you're a versatile eater). The staff were generally quite professional and friendly but, common to Tenerife, there seemed to be an underlying resentment simmering below the surface in around half of the people I interacted with. It's hard to complain about that when the very problem is the people they are serving... us tourists that don't often speak Spanish! Lastly, the pools are lovely and warm - actually heated, not just for show! I enjoyed my stay at Gara Suites and would stay again. Just don't expect much at the buffet and wear something on your feet as the floors aren't especially clean...: manage your expectations of what is a relatively cheap hotel and you'll be happy.

We visit the Gara Suites at least once a year. Accommodation is fantastic. We like to be further out from the pubs and clubs and noise so this location, right in the middle of a golf course, is perfect for us. Town centre is easily walkable in 15/20 mins depending on direction (downhill mostly going in so therefore mostly uphill going back!) We always get a golf-view duplex apartment which has an upstairs with shower room and private balcony including very comfy loungers. The staff have always been lovely - many of them have been there since we started visiting 5 years ago, which isn’t something we often see when returning to previous locations. We usually go half board as we don’t need lunch but we went with our daughter, her husband and our granddaughter last year and for ease, took the full board plus option which was a huge money saver for those who like a drink with dinner but don’t want to go on a bender! Buffet breakfast is very good, we often have the fresh omelettes which are made to order and there’s a huge selection of hot and continental-style meats, cheeses and pastries too. Only complaint would be that the hot options at night are sometimes not very hot. They’re kept under heat lamps which don’t offer much heat! We’ll continue to go back as long as standards are this high.

The negative reviews are a little puzzling. It's me and my brother's last day here (just checked out). Hotel has been great. We had two Golf Course view rooms which were more like apartments they were so big! My balcony was excellent too. People are moaning about the location ... Why did you book this hotel in the first place then? 😂 That's not even a valid criticism as there are always taxis and scooters available outside reception. We never waited more than around 1 minute for a taxi. Pool is great. Entertainment was rubbish but you have loads of nightlife and entertainment options in town. Breakfast was good. I've definitely had worse. Missing nice continental options like croissants and muffins but had great cooked options. Staff were nice enough. No issues with them. HOWEVER. You've probably noticed some 1 star reviews of people claiming a faux maintenance man robbed their rooms. This is true. As soon as we checked in, one such man knocked on my brother's door and claimed the door lock wasn't working and he needed to fix it. There was nothing wrong with it. I assume he was the same thief who robbed the previous reviewers. We knew what he was up to and told him to do one. Had no issues since. Knocked a star off this review as security needs to get it together and do something about this guy...

We absolutely loved this hotel! Initially, we were a bit concerned after reading some of the reviews, but after staying here, we genuinely can’t understand the complaints. It’s a beautiful and affordable hotel, and we have nothing but positive things to say. The staff we interacted with were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Our room was huge, with a stunning view that made our stay even more special. The location is great—about a 15-minute walk to the Strip or a quick and inexpensive taxi ride (around €5), which we found very convenient. Some people are simply hard to please, which likely explains the negative reviews, but for us, this was an amazing deal. We paid just £400 for 5 days for first week in Feb, including flights with Jet2 and breakfast, which we think is incredible value. We would definitely return!
