Playa de Gran Tarajal

The most unique thing about this hotel is the complete lack of decent a/c throughout the whole hotel! No a/c in any of the communal areas and barely adequate in the rooms…and we know as our party of 3 sisters changed 3 rooms, had to ask to change from our allotted suite to temporary rooms on the first night and were hot all night despite the ac being ‘on’ and the next morning we accepted it was the case in all the rooms and just wanted to start our 4 night holiday of which the first night had already been ruined! We were not told that water would not be replenished and we would have to refill at the provided water stations, which is not a problem had we been told at check in!

The stay was beyond measure. We had an upgrade by getting the dinner buffet and received a free beach view suite. It's almost required since the food was mindblowing. The staff was amazing, especially the ever-helpful breakfast chef Cathayana. We will definitely be coming back, hopefully soon.
