Los Roques, Tenerife

Advantages: Hot, Sunny, Reasonably Priced
Disadvantages: Busy, Hectic Night life

...Just want to give as much info in a total package about Tenerife. I have done the Portugal, Spain Mainland, Yugoslavia, Greece, Cyprus, Italy, Gran Canaria, Lanzarotte thing, but to be honest have settled every year for Tenerife. I have three kids and it basicaly suits without forking out money on trying a different experience. There are plenty of flights available to the island leaving mainly Fridays and have never suffered any issues getting there. The Reina Sophia Airport is around a 30 minuite drive from Los Americas where you will witness some of the finest Hotels imaginable. Yes.......and that is exactly what i said, some of the 5* hotels take some beating. Usually, i opt to stay at one of the 4* hotels such as The Conquistador or Noelia Sur where i have stayed on numerous occasions and every time been a winner. The problem... Read review

Disadvantages: touristy

...Whether you enjoy Tenerife or not I feel depends on what you want out of a holiday. I stayed in Los Cristiano's. It is a convenient location close to the airport (about 20mins drive) and you can get anything you may need there. It does have some nice shops to nose around and there are ample restaurants to eat at serving a variety of dishes from all around the globe. But on the whole I found the place rather touristy. With quite a lot of souvenir shops all selling the same sort of products Las Americas again is very touristy but is a popular spot for its nightlife. I personally went to Tramps. It has 3 rooms playing rnb, popular dance and trance and the third room plays mainly funky house. Its a bit pricey but a fun night out and you can party til 6am. Other than that there are a lot of bars all with singers singing your all time... Read review

...Hotel Sol Princesa Dacil *** Los Cristianos Tenerife Just returned from a week’s stay at the hotel and can happily say that this was an excellent holiday, I flew over with my friend from Manchester with Thomas Cook, a flight which took about 4 hrs 20 mins and then only a short transfer from the airport to the hotel of about 20 minutes. I could not fault the holiday and although this is only a 3 star hotel in my opinion it should be upgraded, I have stayed in 3,4,5 star hotels and this more than met my standards. As I said it was only a short transfer and we arrived at the hotel about 15:30 and were immediately checked-in, the receptionist informed me we had been upgraded to a superior room free of charge. The Superior rooms are by far the best and are worth paying for; they are situated on the top three floors of the hotel... Read review
