- Arenas Del Mar Hotel

You're just 900 metres from the centre of El Medano, and you're right on the seafront too. In other words, when you stay at the Arenas del Mar Hotel you're absolutely perfectly placed for a fabulous holiday in one of Tenerife's most popular spots. And what about that beach… it's one of the most impressive stretches of beach in the whole of Tenerife. It really is amazing: beautifully black sands that stretch as far as the eye can see, bordered by the irresistible blue of the Mediterranean.
The Arenas del Mar Hotel has certainly earned its four stars and its incredible reputation. People flock to El Medano for that beach and that wonderful weather. And for anyone who's stayed there, the Arenas del Mar Hotel is just as much of a draw.
The views are outstanding, and its position on the seafront within easy reach of both town and beach is unrivalled. But location isn't everything. The Arenas del Mar Hotel is so enduringly popular because it's such a smart, modern hotel with fantastic amenities.
Just wait till you see the pool. Fringed by recliners and a wave of trees, – and then by the beach itself; there's something so much more exhilarating about swimming with the unmistakable scent of the fresh sea air in your nostrils.
Whatever you do, don't forget that there's an indoor pool too. Part of a wonderful recreation suite, with the superb spa facilities available*, you really could spend a lot of time here. Floor length windows let in loads of that wonderful light, and bring out the gorgeous colours in this little haven of peace and tranquillity. Please note the recreation suite is open to Adults only.
One of the really nice things about the Arenas del Mar Hotel is that sense that whatever you might hope for, the reality is better. The guests' rooms are a good example. Bigger and better than most hotel rooms, the standard rooms are actually junior suites. So there are double beds as standard, and plenty of room for you to relax and unwind.
All rooms come with a wonderful balcony – well, you really do want to make the most of those incredible views. They also satellite plasma TV and phone, room safe and minibar. Sea view rooms are also available.
The Arenas del Mar Hotel is choc-full of amenities too, ranging from its own internet cafe and shop, to a TV lounge and all sorts of activities. With a restaurant, cafe and pool bar as well, this really is one of those hotels that you could quite happily luxuriate in for a week or more.
The Arenas del Mar Hotel in El Medano is a tourist hotspot. Some are drawn by its wonderful beaches; but some – those who've been before and stayed at the Arenas del Mar Hotel – can't resist another stay at the region's premier four star facility.
*Some facilities may incur an additional fee.
The 4* Arenas del Mar is situated on the seafront in El Medano, just 900 metres from the centre. It is an ideal choice for a relaxing holiday with stunning views of the ocean and a fantastic array of amenities including an outdoor swimming pool, entertainment area, bars and a superb modern spa at a fee. La Jaquita Beach, a black sandy beach is close to the hotel.

We chose this hotel for the location and we weren't disappointed. Booked a sea view Jnr suite and it was absolutely amazing. The AC wasn't brilliant but we were never too hot. Although there wasn't supposed to be evening entertainment there was a disco at night on the lower level by the pool. Jorge the bar man was entertainment in itself as well, very flamboyant and great company. No rush for sunbeds either we always managed to get them without having to get up at dawn. They are replacing the broken sunbeds as needed. Loved the sustainability of the hotel, €1 for a pool cup to keep single use plastic down and they return it when you leave. Drinks are plentiful but the wine not great. No silly little toiletries either, the shampoo etc all filled up when needed. Unfortunately the food wasn't great for us as vegetarian/vegan there really wasn't a great choice at all so we went into the town 2 nights. All in all a great holiday but until they up their game on food for vegans we'd not go back.
We have just returned home from this amazing hotel From start to finish this hotel is amazing Hotel staff are very customer focused and all go out of there way to make sure your holiday is a good experience Room was brilliant Food was very good always a different option never went without a choice best hotel for food in years Very clean 100% Did not want to come home Very relaxing
The hotel as a whole is perfect but this year they seem to have cut back quite a lot. Here are some recommendations: Bring back the air conditioning throughout the hotel House keeping is awful and the team need longer per room
Also something needs to be done about the tiles around the pool. So many people falling over even wearing shoes. One day there is going to be a serious accident!
I was a bit concerned about coming here due to the negative reviews, I wish I hadn't. Ignore the nay sayers, this hotel is fantastic, rooms are lovely, clean and airy, no problems with air conditioning just make sure the patio door is closed. I am the world's fussiest eater, well the food is fantastic, plenty of choice all hot and well presented. Hotel is lovely and clean and the staff are brilliant. Room cleaned every day and towels changed. I don't know what hotel the negative reviews were staying at! This is one of the best I have ever been to.
We cannot unnderstand some of the negative reviews of this hotel. The hotel was clean, the staff welcoming and helpful, the rooms spacious and the air-con very good The food was excellent with a wide range to suit all. The pool area was very relaxing with the music at a decent level. The £1 cup is an excellent idea as a small contibution to the climate and ecology. The location of the hotel is first class, nothing better than sitting and watching the waves from a sunbed. (the hotel seem to be replacing the broken sunbeds but we didn't have and issues). We really enjoyed our stay here and will return here again.
