H10 Gran Tinerfe, Tenerife

I stayed at the 4 star Gran Tinerfe December 2006 for Christmas and New Year. Me my dad and brother had never being away for Christmas, which made us curious on what actually happens in a foreign country at Christmas time in a hotel.
Christmas day we booked a gala meal which was like an 8 course meal
I'm a fussy eater so I didn't really enjoy it as much as everyone else, but my dad loved it, there was duck and all the trimmings and ...
...and Christmas I think we got free wine (let me know if I'm wrong) my memories pretty bad, but I must say new years was the best new year of my life! It was planned to perfection.
We had our New Year gala meal and then the living room areas were set up with lots of booze etc and we were all giving party hats and other party treats in this goodie bag.
Everyone came out for 12am and watched the fireworks, they was beautiful! Everyone in ... more

Christmas day we booked a gala meal which was like an 8 course meal
I'm a fussy eater so I didn't really enjoy it as much as everyone else, but my dad loved it, there was duck and all the trimmings and they had alternative meals for vegetarians.
On new years and Christmas I think we got free wine (let me know if I'm wrong) my memories pretty bad, but I must say new years was the best new year of my life! It was planned to perfection.
We had our New Year gala meal and then the living room areas were set up with lots of booze etc and we were all giving party hats and other party treats in this goodie bag.
Everyone came out for 12am and watched the fireworks, they was beautiful! Everyone in the hotel was high spirited which really helped lift the atmosphere and made the day even more specialier

We didn't expect the holiday to be as good as we imagined, the hotel was perfect the food was exceptional with lots of choice, especially at breakfast were they cater for all European tastes.
The hotel has 3 swimming pools it said with the people we booked with one was heated... I don't think it was I went in the "heated" pool and it was just as cold as the others but I eventually warmed up thanks the wonderful Tenerife weather.
I've never being to a hotel with so much going on there's a massive timetable of sports you can do throughout the day
a few days into my 2 week holiday and whilst sun batheing near one of the biggest pools in the hotel I heard someone gathering people around, I'm one of those people who ignore the holiday reps because they can be pretty annoying at times, But about 5 minutes alter these beautiful women walk out of this tent and start modelling swimming costumes and bikinis.
The hotel also offers a Games room, Table tennis, Billiards
Beauty salon with massage, sauna, Turkish bath, fitness room (extra charge) Floodlit tennis court - equipment for hire and last but not least Boules.
The hotel was very clean, and is very close to spar and netto which was handy when I wanted a snack in between my meals( netto is cheaper here than it is other there, spar is a lot cheaper surprisingly)

I loved Gran Tinerfe that much I'm actually going in 3 weeks time for Christmas. I defiantly recommend it to anyone who wants to get away for Christmas or any other time in the year.

Sorry if my review waffels on a little, if anyone wants to know any information on the hotel feel free to ask me.
