This was my fourth stay at Teide Mar over the last 25 years, and I've had an excellent experience every time. The staff are kind and helpful, and the room was spotlessly clean. We stayed in a refurbished room on the 6th floor and the new beds are exceptionally comfortable. The kitchenette was well-stocked with everything we needed for drinks and snacks. We did not prepare meals other than breakfast as we like to enjoy local restaurants (I can heartily recommend Luna Caprese for excellent pizzas, about 200yds from Teide Mar) We love the location of Teide Mar, it is quiet and peaceful with plenty of shops and a supermarket very close by. It's a steep walk up and down into the town centre, so might not suit everybody, but we enjoyed the walk and the lovely views over the sea and town. A taxi into town costs 5€ and there's a rank directly outside the hotel. For trips further afield the bus stop to Santa Cruz, La Laguna and the airport is five minutes walk away, which makes days out easy. Teide Mar is perfect for us as we only ever use our accommodation for sleeping and showers, and like to spend our money on experiences (and meals out!) so don't require a 5 star hotel - that said, Teide Mar is excellent value for money, and is safe and clean and comfortable. The gardens and pool area are beautiful and well maintained - we chose a room with a pool view so we could enjoy looking at Mount Teide. Thank you once again for a lovely holiday, I'm sure we will be back again.

Lovely hotel very clean, the staff are very friendly and helpful, I had a great stay, And would definitely recommend it..,

Freindly greeting upon arrival The hotel is quite dated but kept well and it's clean The room we had was on The 6th floor . Very dated again but kept clean and presented nicely. Beds are comfortable large balcony with great views up the mountain. Cleaning staff attentive and freindly. Location of the hotel is great ery close to shops ars restaurants ect pool and garden are nice . We wouldn't Normally book a budget accommodation but this place is great value for money only down side lots of rules which I've not experienced before . If I ever decided to visit this area In the future I wouldn't have an issue staying here again . Currently still here e joying our stay .

Booked with love holidays and cannot fault them. I was very nervous reading some of the reviews regarding confirmed accommodation etc but was pleasantly surprised. Hotel and location was poor. Firstly, arrived at the location around 11, to find no shops or restaurants open within a 15 minute walk which is ok if not travelling with young children. All shops and restaurants closed around 10.30pm. Hotel had too many rules and although is advertised as a family holiday assuming catering for children, no inflatables allowed, no ball games around the pool which included a tiny ping pong ball. Looked down on by owners of apartments who are living their permanently, which were rude and intimidating. Pool opening times are 10-6 which is very strict and told to leave outside of these times. Sunbeds piled and guests expected to put these out themselves causing a safety issue. At 6pm, staff removing sunbeds from underneath people to put them away. Unable to drink or eat your own things which is fair, although at times, long waits for bar staff also acting as a lifeguard. Poor options for 'snacks'. Breakfast offered at a cost, although waiter was very friendly, there was not enough hot food prepared and had to ask a few times and the food was barely luke warm. The north of tenerife was a first for us as a family, very cloudy and often cold. Not a lot to do in the area. Luckily, we hired a car which was a godsend. No onsight parking available and needed to use side streets, often driving around for up to 30 minutes to find a spot. Although we wasnt looking for a 'british' holiday. Local bars and restaurants were limited and those available had no options for English translations on menus for food or drinks, and most staff not willing to help. Hotel very clean and tidy, outdated but we liked that it wasnt like every other Hotel. Reception staff very nice, especially those checking us in. Smokers were not able to smoke on their balcony which was a first for anywhere ive travelled before, nor near the pool area having a designated spot in the corner. Again, fair but not great for those who smoke, especially on their balcony with a threat of a €200 fine. Overall, would use love holidays again, but would not visit the area nor return to the hotel.
