Pleasant and comfortable stay
Reviewed By b1scu1t18Stayed for one week towards the end of May. Arrived later at night and was taken to our apartment by reception. The room was big enough, clean and seemed to have everything we would need. Bed was large and comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. Bathroom was a decent size with an amazing powerful walk-in shower. We had a junior suite on the ground floor so had a reasonable sized terrace to sit out on. There was also a pull out couch-bed in the living room. Bedroom and living room both had TV’s but we didn’t use them as we had a tablet. WiFi was powerful in and around the suite. Pool area is very clean but small, to be honest it’s one of the cleanest pools I have ever seen! The garden areas are pretty and well-kept and there was a rooftop bar which we used a few times. There seemed to be two connected restaurants but we didn’t eat at these (due to personal menu choices - not for any other reason). The only gripe I had was the room temperature as it was very warm, so maybe a cooler in the living room would be good - there was one in the bedroom but it didn’t really cool the room down on full power. I would however 100% stay here again and recommend to anyone visiting the island. Location is quiet but not far at all on foot to visit the plentiful bars/restaurants and also two larger supermarkets.

Everything taken care of!
Reviewed By lzptv5Wow, what can I say. Booked this hotel after reading positive reviews from everyone else and I can say they are very accurate. I have broken this review down in sections:- Staff - Absolutely brilliant. From the moment you step into the hotel and your luggage is taken care of, to the warm reception and welcome drink, to the excellent housekeeping, the excellent service at the restaurant to the pool area and the activities. Nothing is a problem and the service is second to none. The staff should be congratulated on making it so easy for guests to just enjoy themselves. Room - We had a second floor room with a view over the street and could see the nearby mountain. It was a very clean and modern room with modern fittings. The bathroom was excellent with superb power rain fall shower and separate sinks. The room comes equipped with free safe, iron and ironing board. You have a minibar, though as we were All Inclusive, we did not end up using it. They have a great feature to reduce plastic waste by providing water stations close to the room where you fill a provided jug for your water needs. Beds were comfy. TV has BBC and a few English channels and option for Netflix that you can sign into. The only issue was at busy times, the Wi-Fi bandwidth simply can't cope and the picture is very pixelated. Other than that, all ok. Food - We went All inclusive. Firstly you need your phone to read the QR codes which bring up the drinks menu. We could go for anything without a *, which was plenty in my view and all drinks were perfectly made and of good value. Food was buffet style and there is literally something for everyone here. It is so varied so you will not be bored. Breakfast has the usual egg stations etc.. and lunch / dinner has fresh pasta/pizza section as well as daily paella made in front of you and delicious. There is also a fresh grill section, with 2 fish and 2 meat choices to choose from. Then on top of that, they have a roast section and loads of supporting vegetables and assorted dishes. To finish, you have a large selection of deserts and ice cream, with toppings. Tip, use the running chocolate fountain to cover your ice cream and it hardens nicely. Special mention to the team behind the counters making the dishes. Nothing was too difficult and they would go out of their way to make sure you get the dish you want. Really excellent. Pool Entertainment - Poolside entertainment was pool yoga on boards, keep fit as well as cycling, running machines and trampolines in the pool. It was great fun and you should try! As well they have soap making classes, learn to salsa, towel modelling etc.. Evening entertainment - We saw Elton John and Whitney Houston tributes, both of which were excellent fun and spot on. Also worth mentioning was a singer called Angel who sang a load of well-known favourites. All very enjoyable with the flow of cocktails coming. Package - We had All Inclusive, which is not Star Prestige but to be honest, we never once felt wanting more. It was sufficient and we had a really great time. Travel to/from Hotel - takes approx. 30 - 45 mins and we were the 1st stop from the airport coming by shared coach. Tip - Make sure you walk along the promenade day and night, as the experience is different. The beach is easily accessible via a dedicated hotel access. Do I recommend this hotel, absolutely! It is an Adults only hotel, so sorry no kids.

Excellent hospitality
Reviewed By wamorockThe hospitality in this hotel is top notch. Due to a delayed departure we missed our connection. After getting rerouted we arrived around 1:30am without our luggage. We had not eaten anything since early afternoon. We were starving. The check in took 1 minute. We were then offered a container of juice, some bananas and a bowl of nuts to hold us over until breakfast. We were extremely thankful. The room was modern with a comfortable king size bed. We also had an amazing ocean view which we took advantage of by sitting in the balcony in the evenings. Any requests made to the front desk were immediately taken care of. All staff were friendly and polite and willing to help any way possible. We spent our time by the small pool. Chairs were always available and there was always a nice breeze since it was facing the ocean. The lounge chairs were to close to one another at the large pool. Getting in and out of them sometimes became a task. We had a great couples massage at a reasonable price. There are many restaurants and bars all walking distance from the hotel. The beach is short 2-3 minute walk.Upon check out at 6:00am we were given some croissants since breakfast was not yet being served. We had a wonderful time here. I would definitely recommend Barcelo Teguise Beach.

great facilities - rooms not as good - damaged mains cable
Reviewed By dux_vimesHard one this. The issue is the rooms do not match the resort. TL;DR: rooms not great, first was not clean, mains cable for microwave dodgy. Resort facilities and staff are great. The bad Had a suite, floor was sticky in places, dust around, phone not working, some lights not working. So we have no physical hotel guide or menus due to covid but the place feels unlcean. OK. But the tipping point was plugging in the kettle and taking out the microwave one and seeing the outer insulation had gone. (see photo). Not bare wires but not up to standard. Hotel did move us but I felt they did not acknowldge the fact you cant have such electricity wiring in a hotel, let alone a 5 star hotel. I may be wrong but I doubt it was fixed in a hurry (or may still not have been). I didn't get an apology for this; it was an "oh" and let me check with my manager if there is a different room. After moving we then found out that our original room was missing things like furniture. No physical menus anywhere due to covid. App that controls most things is awful, slow and unreliable. But if you want to see your bill you have to go the front desk. The good Staff in general are great Facilities are good with daily activites for children Food is pretty good Spa is not cheap but excellent tip: if you drive there is off street parking and a big free public carpark next to the hotel. Hotel charges for car parking.

Exactly what we needed.
Reviewed By Dan_p_280991We arrived late (around 11:30PM) after a small delay at the airport and were greeted by the very welcoming reception staff. We have obviously missed the buffet food, but when we arrived to the room the staff had laid out an arrangement of cold meats and cheese, which a nice surprise to start off the holiday. We had half board so opted to have breakfast and usually go out during the day for an explore and back for the evening buffet. The food at the hotel was brilliant, all the staff worked tirelessly to keep everything clean and running smoothly (waiting staff and kitchen staff together).
