Fate brought us to Tenerife for the next (but not the last) time, just because the circumstances developed, so we went, and we also got cheap tickets. This time we lived in Costa Adeje, the hotel "PARQUE del SOL" in apartments T2 - with two bedrooms. The hotel and its territory are good, but the apartments turned out to be rather weak (there is something to compare with).
The living room is quite decent, not very large, but it seems larger due to the large mirror in the form of a window. The bedrooms are normal, almost the same, with large closets (each with a safe). There was an iron and ironing board in one of the bedrooms. Two balconies: one large overlooking the pool, equipped with a large umbrella, dining table and chairs, the other is quite small on the opposite side. The kitchen is small, two people can no longer turn around, but there are all the utensils. We asked to replace the frying pan and bring a second kitchen towel - they brought it without talking. Unfortunately, there is only one bathroom (with a bathtub) (it’s still not enough for 5 people). I would also like the apartments to have air conditioning, a washing machine and a DVD player (these are minor disadvantages).
The hotel itself is quite good, with a neat territory. Every evening there are different show programs, and in the morning they put up a poster of what will happen in the evening. The pool is freshly refurbished. The service at the hotel is at a decent level, the maids clean every day, they don’t beg for a tip, and even if you leave, they don’t always take it. There is free WiFi - in the rooms, and by the pool, and at the reception.

I can’t say anything about food at the hotel, because. booked without meals and did not eat at the restaurant at the hotel at all - they had breakfast in the room, and lunch and dinner as it turns out (in the apartment or in some restaurant).
Not far from the ocean - 200-300 meters along another hotel. Along the beach - a promenade, where every evening you can see a bunch of "colorful" people. Someone just walks, and someone chooses a place where you can have dinner or relax (or both), since the choice is good.
Since we took the car, we traveled almost the entire island. We visited Loro Park, Siam Park (we immediately bought a double ticket from the guide for them - saving about 10 euros per person), were in the Monkey Park, the Gü imar pyramids, the Teide volcano, Los Gigantos and, of course, visited the capital island city of Santa Cruz. Of the excursions, only the Flamenco show was bought. This year's show was called Aire, which means air in Spanish. We are not the first time in Tenerife, so we knew that the show was good and updated every year.
All in all, a great two weeks on the island of eternal spring.
