“Whala!Tenerife struck me as a savvy choice for vacationers who want to split time between the beach and the nearby shops and restaurants. The lively pool bar is a social hub, and I think the lagoon-style pool design, with dedicated children's area, helps create a family-friendly vibe. The inclusion of kitchenettes in every apartment is a definite plus for longer stays.”

The bar staff were friendly enough I guess.
The room reeked of stale smoke it was far from enjoyable. I found a stain on the bed sheet what looked suspiciously like ketchup. The noise from the nearby street kept me up all night it was like sleeping in a dumpster.

Decent stay for the price.

spacious apartmentsuper clean apartmentpowerful showerunfair depositphysical assaultincreased anxiety
I stayed in a two-bedroom apartment. It was spacious and super clean. The shower had hot and powerful water. The location is great with supermarkets within a 5 minute walk.
We had to pay a €30 deposit each. I found it unfair. The security guard physically touched me and dragged me out of the hotel room. I felt a mass of anxiety.

Solid Stay Near Everything

spacious apartmentfriendly staffconvenient location
I found the staff to be very friendly. My studio apartment was spacious and clean, providing everything I needed. The shower had hot water and good pressure. Ceiling fans kept the room cool enough during the summer heat. I appreciated the location. It was a short walk to supermarkets and beaches.
The bar prices for food seemed high compared to nearby restaurants. It made dining out more appealing.
