    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    Thanks to its hillside position, the Altamar Hotel serves up eye-widening views of the Canarian coast and the Atlantic Ocean.

    You’re never far from a sea view at this hotel. You can watch the water from the sun terrace by the pool, from the al fresco eating area in the restaurant, and from the sofas of the chill-out terrace.

    Amadores Beach, with its wide band of Werther’s Original-coloured sands, is a 20-minute walk from this hotel and the nearest bars and restaurants can be found in the Europa Centre a 10-minute stroll away.

    While you're away, you can speak to us anytime - we're available 24/7 via the TUI App, phone, SMS and email. The easy-to-use TUI App is also packed with info and tips. It sends you important updates, like your airport transfer times, too.

    Short break

    My husband and I stayed here for a short break. The room was slightly dated but more than adequate.fab large sunny balcony.and two swimming pools which were a great size. Lift up to all floors,but may be difficult for anyone not so good on there feet..close to local amenities,would stay here again.we were self catering so can’t recommend the food as ate out each evening
    Lovely holiday but made to feel inferior when checking out.

    First time we have stayed here..first impressions. Friendly staff, lovely clean room overlooking the pool. We decided to eat in the hotel restaurant on our first evening (we always alternate eating out for our evening meal). I’m not a fussy eater at all but I can honestly say the food was inedible,It was cold, I know from previous reviews that the management response was that the food was checked and was served at the correct temperatures. I do not believe that to be the case. The wine was cheaper than cheap and we couldn’t drink it. We ate out every night after that experience. We did have breakfast every morning which was fine, the coffee was lovely so no complaints there. We had salad and rolls for lunch so that was ok. The staff in the restaurant were very nice and attentive. The pool was heated and very pleasant to bathe in. Entertainment team were lovely too. We could help ourselves to hot and cold drinks during the day. Just to mention the lady that worked in the lobby bar after 4 was very nice and friendly. The hotel is in a great location just a couple of hundred yards from bars and restaurants. Finally check out time is 12 pm which is fine. But I have to say the practise of cutting the all inclusive wrist bands off is very embarrassing and degrading and for us totally cheapened the hotel. We have travelled in Europe and long haul and we have never experienced this bad practise before. We were made to feel uncomfortable and in the way. Everyone we spoke to that were waiting to leave said the same. Come on Hotel Costa Caleta. This needs addressing, speak to your directors and get it sorted.
    Right location

    This hotel is clean, well kept, but a little bit dated. Not a high class hotel, but good value for money, you get what you pay for. A lot of Danish people and a lot of elderly people. As opposed to many other hotels in Puerto Rico, this is in the right direction and has sun all day. Nice views. Terraces are open, so you may walk into a terrace by mistake when taking the stairs. Try to get a room as high up as possible. Beds are hard. The elevator may get crowded, but there is a second one at the far end. OK breakfast buffet, but no omelettes and the scrambled eggs are made from dry mix. Go for Tauro Beach and some more genuine feeling instead of the crowded overrated Amadores beach.

    Back to the 80’s, but kind of in a good way
    28 Dec , 2019 Kerocker1970, 190502
    This is the little danish republic of Gran Canaria. 90% of the guest are from Denmarke, 75% of them again are over 60 years old. 20% are familiys with kids and the last 5% are others. The music at the bar is something i thought was impossible to ever find or hear again, early 70’s «i sing old classic song in a karoke way». The music makes you wanna commite suicide, but the drinks you can buy at the bar might just save you from that, they tasted good. The food which inculded the all inclusive is nice, but adultdrinks on all inclusive, well it could been a whole lot better. Rooms are ok, lots of stairs to get anywhere at the hotel. The staff is just excellent in every way. The free bus from the hotel to puerto rico and the beach are just excellent. Puerto Rico is kind of a back to the future thing. If this was 1986 i would have expected it all just like is there just now. But we’re entering 2020 in just a few days, so this is both strange and rare i think. So if you miss the 80’s this is the place to re-live it all one more time, then this is the place to be. All in all we had fun, but we’re now ready to travel back to the future again and join you all in 2020. Enjoy!
