The hotel consists of villas. The villas are large and comfortable. The pool area was amazing, the water temperature ideal, soft clean towels at pool every time. The pool restaurant proved to be really good, we really loved the paellas! The restaurant had also a nice kids menu. Service was amazing, every time we asked for something, they did their best to make us happy. The room and general hotel areas were very clean. There is parking underneath the hotel. The breakfast was very tasty with nice area to sit, either inside or outside, fresh orange juice, tasty coffee and unlimited options to eat. Best part was the jacuzzi in the room after a tiring day!

Two of the pool areas were closed for maintenance and we only got informed about it a week before our travel. It proved to be no problem as there were always sunbeds in the other pool area and the construction works were not disturbing. Some furniture in the room are a bit dated but they match the old spanish style of the hotel. The restaurant and bar closes at 10 and we found that a bit early. The temperature in the jacuzzi cannot be self-adjusted and we had to call twice and loose 2 days until it could be fixed to a good temperature.

Excellent resort, with wonderful staff and very family friendly. The food was also good, and the breakfast buffet was great. We also very much appreciated that at 10 p.m. it was peace and quiet and you could sleep. It was very clean everywhere and kids of all ages could find something to do.

We walked a lot and sometimes even jogged down to the beach. The location is great. What was a bit more challenging was the steep walk/jog up the hill when coming back to the resort. It is not a criticism, it is just a note for those enthusiasts who enjoy walking - it is a great workout, but can be brutal at the end of the day. But this is how one can indulge one extra churro at breakfast. 😉

This is one of the best places I have ever stayed in, and I have stayed in many! Excellent price/quality ratio, top facilities, incredibly nice and welcoming staff. Perfect for family with kids, but it’s not too kid-centered and it is very quiet. We upgraded to a villa with jacuzzi and it is definitely worth it. Amazing view, sunshine through the day. Kitchen facilities are more than sufficient to cook a simple meal. High chair provided, together with a good quality baby cot, and even toiletries for babies. Swimming pool towels provided for free. Main pool is big enough and never too crowded (I suppose because so many units have private pool/ jacuzzi). Kids club open 5 days/7, Bea is really nice and there’s plenty of toys also for toddlers (parents must stay with them, of course). Amazing breakfast. We spent entire days in the hotel, something unusual to us, but it was so good we didn’t feel any need to leave. Location ideal, la Caleta is a nice village reachable with a 15 min walk (doable also by kids) or a 2 minutes car trip. Don’t hesitate and book right away :-)

My only tiny negative point is the waiters taking away your plate a bit too quickly, but maybe it’s a cultural thing, since it happened in restaurants also outside the hotel.

Everything! It’s rated 5 star and you really felt that. the staff are amazing and cannot do enough for you. Very well maintained throughout and spotlessly clean.

The location 😞 What a shame-the complex is on a hill which gives incredible views but it is a good 10-15 minute walk down to the small cove where the shops and restaurants are. this wasn’t so much of a problem for us going down but we didn’t attempt to walk back up. This meant a cab journey of around €5 every time. In fact, we spent most of our spending money on taxis so please bear this in mind when booking. A hire car would be beneficial.

Great villa! Great place, great staff. Great breakfast. They go above and beyond to meet your needs. Always helpful if you have any issues or ideas. It is perfect for families as the villas offer a lot of space. The hotel is always ready to provide attractions to kids and others. Location was quiet and we did not hear any noises. Beds were super comfortable. Free underground parking. The reception service is always there to help you. Technicians and cleaning staff are also very friendly and ready help. Genuinely all of the staff has the attitude to help you to feel as comfortable as possible. The views from villa are astonishing. Always take the one with pool or jacuzzi. There was nothing better than after long day of sun you could take a jacuzzi or swimm in your pool. If you plan to cook for kids or yourself the kitchen is there but it has limited kitchen utensils - just the basics. We cooked for about son a bit.

We loved the whole place. Villa is superb. Pool lovely, not too busy, very clean. Lovely food. Breakfasts just fab. Staff cannot do enough and are so friendly. Loved Academy next door too. Local town of Caleta just 10 mins downhill and gorgeous. Great restaurants there also.

Nothing we didn't like. Maybe better choice with food for dinner. If you don't like hills you might not like walk back from Caleta but there are plenty of taxis for those who don't like walking or struggle with hills.

- we loved that the place was quite and calm, we were looking for a place like that, so we did not mind that there was no entertainment - the resort is beautiful - the villas were spacious, clean, very private, the kitchen is a little bit out-dated but when our fridge did nit working they immediately changed it to a new one - friendly service, everyone had a smile to our baby - playground for kids - La Caleta (the village in walking distance) is full of great restaurants and has a lovely atmosphere (especially compared to Costa Adeje) - breakfast was really good with wide and good quality selection

- the pool for the kids can be a little bit warmer, but maybe it bothers only smaller kids like our 1,5 year-old

This hotel is an oasis of soulfulness in a sea of concrete resorts..! every villa is unique in colour and/or style, and shape, which makes it feel so much better than your average resort. and although it has a lot of villas it feels like a small place, like a boutique hotel. our villa had a jacuzzi and we used it ALL THE TIME! the kids LOVED it!! the restaurant of the hotel had really delicious options and the kids club was a delight - especially the dancing at 5pm! the jungle gym was great and there was mini golf and ping pong for the kids. the staff was always so thoughtful and friendly!

the villas have basic furniture but the outdoor areas are nicely decorated, and it is very well equipped.

The atmosphere was nice and relaxed helped by the very friendly staff. The pools and gym were more than adequate while the breakfast was really varied and tasty. We weren't in High season so it was very peaceful, but the layout is such that even when its busy you could escape to your own villa if it was required. Villa equipment and facilities were all in good condition and spotlessly clean (every day). Would recommend for a relaxed break with the family or an escape with good friends. Location is set slightly back from the coast and the local restaurant/bar area which made for a pleasant evening walk. Ideally located for bike hire at Free Motion T3, literally across the road, who were very helpful. A must visit coffee stop for cyclists is Cafe Parada in Chio - on the way up the hill (Teide). Rafa makes a omelette that can revive the tiredest limbs.

The Pound (Sterling ) was very weak when we visited so everything was more expensive than otherwise would have been. Nothing to complain about otherwise and exchange rates aren't in Vila Marias control. Some may prefer a bit more 'going on' in the complex but it was low season when we were there and suited us well.

The villa, pool areas, breakfast, service - was all five star. Nice views and as many guests play golf, rather quiet premises during daytime. Jacuzzi in the villa’s small backyard lot was awesome. All our matters were met in the friendliest manner and staff was kind and responsive.

Unless you choose to pay all inclusive, there is certainly a price tag for everything. But that’s the concept, not complaining, just noting. Getting to places, grocery shopping, etc. easy with a car, otherwise a lot of taxi riding. Our villa’s inner ceiling paint had signs of old water leaks, don’t know if that’s why housekeeping was generous using perfumes.
