Gara Suites Golf & Spa

The food at the spacious pool bar is the best for me, cheap but tasty snacks/food. Rooms are massive compared to other hotels, e.g la siesta. Staff are very friendly as well. Only thing that could be better is the indoor bar that is a bit understaffed for the volume of people that use it.

Great 4-star hotel in Tenerife! Rooms are spacious and cleaned everyday. No tea/coffee facilities but they are available upon request. The breakfast was great with plenty of options. The hotel facilities (pool, spa and pool bar) were great. It’s a 5-10 minute taxi to the centre of town, costing maximum €10 per trip. Close to Siam Park and Siam Mall, both within walking distance but would recommend a taxi. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Would recommend for young adults as can be quite loud at night but unavoidable.

I stayed here for a week. On the first night, struggled to sleep on a ground floor hotel room due to guests constantly moving around above making loud noises. After asking at reception. Staff were willing to move us to another room. Our new room was perfect, and had no problems at all after moving. The staff on reception are all extremely hospitable and friendly. The area around the hotel is beautiful, surrounded by green gold courses and natural terrain. The only downside being you have to walk around 10-15 minutes along a main road to get to the town centre, or a short taxi ride, around €4-7. This is not a problem if you don’t mind doing so. The room features are basic, but contains the simple amenities such as hair dryer, safe etc. I did notice a few maintenance issues such as wonky balcony railings, handles on the balcony doors were loose and the fire sprinkler was loose also. The hotel grounds however all seemed extremely clean and looked after, which was nice. Maybe they need to pay more attention to the rooms as I have seen other reviews detailing similar issues. As for the food, it was ok, there was plenty of choice and some nights were better than others. Not all the food looked great but there was always something which I didn’t mind eating. I think this is always the case with any all inclusive buffet. All In all I really enjoyed this hotel and the stay and would come back. Better than some other hotels in the area. Just a few small issues but nothing major. Very nice stay and would recommend!

Great family hotel with tidy rooms, good swimming pools and outside area. Nice buffet breakfast and evening meal with a good selection. The location is a 30 to 40 minute walk to the beach with a steep incline. A track all around the hotel and golf course for running and walking is fun.

We stayed here for 14 nights. The rooms are huge which is always great but they’re dirty. First week we were staying the room above us was so noisy. Obviously not the staffs fault we complained a couple times as it would go on All night! Eventually they moved us to a different room. This room was awful the shower floor had sticky stuff all over it and the water pressure was so bad just dripping out. They sent maintenance over twice till jt was eventually fixed but the shower floor we put towels all over as it was gross. The sheets have stains and the place just isn’t clean. We tried playing pool table on the outdoor one at the bar. Our money got stuck and when we flagged this to the staff they apologised and said it wasn’t working. The next day we went to use the indoor pool table and same thing happened! You’d think they’d have an out of order sign on them! Obviously they’re money hungry. To add to this our last day yesterday we went to use the self service washing machines. We saw the card machine wasn’t working and went to go take out cash. We put our money in the machine, it took it but nothing happened! Went to reception and the lady there so rude and unhelpful. She sent maintenance and he said they were out of service and to go to reception to get our money back. Once again, no out of service sign anywhere!!!! We went to reception and the same lady refused to give us our money back just extremely rude. I’d say this place is a 2 star hotel at most. A good 20/30 min walk from any shops, bars or restaurant. You’d be better off spending your money someplace else.
