Vincci Tenerife Golf Hotel

A lovely first holiday for us together as a couple. The staff were very helpful, the only issue was that the bar was a little short staffed at mealtimes but we didnt have to wait too long to be served. The room was huge, we had such a surprise on arrival. Booked a cheap deal online and we had a room with 2 bedrooms, lounge, balcony, sea view and a bathroom with a his and her sink. The pool was lovely and no need to rush down to the save loungers in the morning and there were plenty left after breakfast. There were even cushions available to add comfort to the loungers. The food was absolutely delicious, the chinese night was a favorite for myself as there were many types of dishes available such as prawns, duck, beef and chicken. There is bingo every evening and entertainment on the weekend. I don't think the entertainment was that exciting but there is bars just up the road which are very well priced. Overall a lovely holiday.

Booked with Jet2.com. from Leeds Bradford. well satisfied with their performance. Stayed 1 week AI, temperature 24-31deg day time, no rain, days with strong winds. Pro: Good transfer time15min. Good location- on front overlooking rocky/shingle beach and is adjacent to wide esplanade. Opposite is complex with supermarket (well stocked +papers) and dozen or so bar/restaurants. Top square was our favourite area. There are 30min walks each way, left to Los Abrigos fishing harbour and few bars/restaurants and right goes past a few hotels to a marina. The route to Los Abrigos is over rough terraine, but a wooden decked roadway is under construction due for completion November. Hotel check in was good and we were allocated a room on 6th floor facing Los Abrigos with excellent views. The room was large with extra bedroom, fine bathroom, a free safe (but needs your own bank card to operate), small fridge with mini bar (payable). All aspects of service for room, bar and restaurant was good and friendly. Golf course 25 min walk away. Cons: I could seen no wheelchair entry to the lift in Reception on 3rd level, and there was a short flight of steps to climb. We emailed (twice) for a high floor allocation request which went unanswered. The hotel needs attention in a few areas - there are large areas of decking with missing/worn wooden lats, tiles are missing from around the pool. I didn't mind paying 10euro for 2 internet connections, but wasn't told the speed is slow at about 2/3 meg, ok for surfing but you will struggle with video streaming or WhatsApp. The pool sunbeds have the usual early bird towel brigade and they were often all taken by late am. There is only one small bar, it is located in the Reception area. It has opening hours of 11am to 11pm. They only do one cocktail on the AI. The room TV has no UK news channels or our terrestial stations. The main fault we had was with the food, poor choice and very, very often cold. Breakfast was average - bacon not very good, fried eggs cooked at the station were left going cold and looked really poor. Insist on a fresh cook. Dinner not too bad, but again stuck for choice, chips often cold ( Chips are with dinner and evening meal and vary in quality and temperature. Only once got mash or Canarian in 7 days). Evening meals were themed, but again little choice. We did not see a garden pea, carrot or broccli for the first 4 days. The salad bar was ok, the sweets were ok but limited choice. We are not fussy eaters and are easily pleased but this was below what we expected, especially reading some reviews. We did note the hotel did not seem to be particularly full and the restaurant only usually had about 12 tables being used. Perhaps low occupancy was a reason for lack of choice. The hotel reception lounge area was usually empty on a night with guests presumably preferring to go out up to the complex. It was however a bright and clean area. This was our second visit to the area, our first being at the Hotel Sandos Sans Blas which is next door and is, for us, a much preferred hotel.
