H10 Tenerife Playa

Fantastic location, good pools, okay rooms. Expect a 3 star hotel room quality, definitely not a 4 star. Avoid all inclusive or half board dinner and lunch service, it’s not worth it. Reminded me of pub food, or school lunch. We booked half board but decided to go out and eat somewhere else instead. Lots of good restaurants around that area.

Review of H10 Tenerife Playa – January Stay We stayed at the H10 Tenerife Playa in Puerto de la Cruz for 12 nights in January on an all-inclusive basis. The hotel is in a fantastic seafront location with easy access to the promenade and local attractions. Check-in & First Impressions The check-in process was warm and welcoming, with a complimentary glass of cava on arrival. The staff were friendly and helpful, though the process could have been a little more streamlined. Room (Double Sea View) We stayed in a Double Sea View Room on the eighth floor (Room 810). The room was bright, clean, and well-equipped, with a comfortable bed, good air conditioning, and plenty of charging points. The balcony was small but had a lovely sea view, though lower floors may have obstructed views due to mature trees. The bathroom was spotless, and the shower had great water pressure. A couple of minor downsides—the wardrobe was quite small for a long stay, and the safe used an old-fashioned key rather than a modern keypad system. A great feature was the wristband, which doubled as a room key and could also be used for charging purchases to the room. No more lost key cards! Food & Drink The hotel has two restaurants: • El Drago (Main Buffet Restaurant) – a good variety of food, with themed nights (Asian and Mexican were particularly good). The seating area offers great sea views. • El Lagar (Pool Bar & À La Carte Restaurant) – a casual lunch spot by day, turning into an à la carte restaurant in the evening. The food here was excellent and offered a quieter, more relaxed dining experience compared to the buffet. There are two bars: a pool bar (open until 5pm) and the main hotel bar (open until midnight). Drinks selection was extensive, and service was friendly and efficient. Facilities & Entertainment • Entertainment Lounge – a mix of live singers, acrobats, and flamenco performances. Some shows were better than others, but overall, evening entertainment was decent. • Daytime activities – aqua aerobics, table tennis, darts, archery, and pétanque. • Pool area – two pools, including one heated, plus a small hot tub and a toddler pool. A large solarium offers extra sunbathing space. • Gym & Spa – a small gym with great coastal views and a spa with a sauna and massage treatments (extra charge). Location One of the best things about this hotel is the location. It’s right on the seafront, within walking distance to the town centre, local restaurants, and shops. The Lago Martiánez lido is nearby, offering safer seawater swimming for €5. For day trips, we recommend visiting: • La Orotava – a charming historic town just 10 minutes away by taxi. • Santa Cruz de Tenerife – a great day trip, easily accessible by bus (45 mins). Visit on market day (Sunday) for a bustling experience. Overall Verdict ✅ Pros: ✔ Great seafront location ✔ Comfortable, well-equipped rooms (especially on higher floors) ✔ Good food & drink options ✔ Friendly staff & service ✔ Entertainment & activities for a relaxed stay ❌ Cons: ✖ Wardrobe space in the room could be bigger ✖ Key-operated safe instead of a modern digital one ✖ Some sunbeds shaded at times due to surrounding trees Would we stay again? Yes, definitely. Despite a few small niggles, the friendly atmosphere, location, and overall experience make this a great option for those looking to explore the north of Tenerife. 📌 Want to see more?

An excellent hotel. First the hotel is very nice and comfortable. We had a room on a high floor overlooking the ocean - recommend that! It was so peaceful to see the sunrise and sunset and hear the sound of the ocean. The beds were very comfortable. The gym is small but with an amazing view and has everything I needed. The heated pool in winter was a plus. The staff is great - friendly and helpful. In particular at breakfast, the ladies at the egg station and Saraya were all great. The housekeeping and front desk as well. The animation team was so great too! The location is great, a lot of good bars and restaurants nearby. Also can walk or run along the sea with lots to explore. From the town you can also book excursions to see other parts of the island. Only downside is there isn’t a great beach right next to the hotel, but we were happy walking a bit or going to the pool. Overall, recommend !

Would strongly recommend people Stay here Hotel is amazing. Stylish modern and up to date. Staff was excellent so friendly and always smiling and always happy to help. This Hotel is rated four stars should be five stars . Rooms so clean and tidy plenty of extra sheets / blankets and pillows Hidden fridge under cabinet good design so not visible. Big wardrobes plenty of hangers. Big beds and so comfy didn't want to get out. Views from balcony amazing would recommend like our room sea front. We had all Inclusive Food was brilliant had everything for everyone and consent topped up Best Hotel by far for food Pool bar food also amazing and all day. Alcohol drinks served all day and even until midnight never rushed you to leave when bar closed Music and entertainment were good . Though this Hotel is more suited for adults Entertainment isn't provided for children nor So the pools they have two pool areas plus a hot tub which is brilliant. But as mentioned not much for children. They've got a small kid's area and a basketball court area. Our recent visit 21/02/25 We noticed it had a big occupation of elderly people and middle aged Was this the norm? Or just mid-winter escape. If honest it's catered for adults. Free Wi-Fi with room Room serviced everyday Safe was cheap believe 15euro. Would strongly recommend you consider All-inclusive or not as it's cheap to eat and drink out I suppose on individual's budgets. Plenty to do and see here Would say treat yourself you'll have a fantastic holiday .

Lovely hotel, great location reception staff were really helpful as we had to check out a few days early and move on last minute. Bar staff were ok but slow, probably need more staff. Hotel is great clean and well located with great views of the sea and mountain/ volcano. Solarium is great up top. Pool is nice but very cold. Only down side is the air con is clearly restricted. Despite saying it's set to 16°C it's blowing more like 20+.
