Vigilia Park

Nice place to kick back and relax. We enjoyed a month there. Tip 1 be prepared to walk up and down a lot of steep hills. If you have trouble with walking alot of the areas are close enough to take a cab for 3 euros or take the public bus and go all over the place. Los Chistianos has a great beach. The best restaurant that we ate at was The El MaNico steak house. Great food and terrific service. It is within walking distance of Vigilia. Oh yeah that nice mountain you can drive to, If you want to take the Gondola to the very top you have to purchase a ticket on line before you go. We drove all the way up there only to find out it was sold out for the day.

We have just checked out of this hotel and had a lovely time. We used this hotel as a base for our holiday. We had no food there, so can’t comment on the cuisine. We have stayed in many hotels / apartments and this is definitely one of the better ones and we usually stay 4*. People on here who have written bad reviews must have either stayed in a different hotel or expected 5 star! What do people expect for the money???! The rooms were cleaned every day if you wanted them cleaned and the towels were changed if you wanted them changed. All staff very polite and friendly. Lifeguards were very strict boooo, not such a bad thing! The views from the very top floor of los gigantes were stunning! We went to one show, a snake show....wasn’t a show!!!! It was ‘have your photo taken with a snake for £10’ and that was it!!!!! Didn’t bother going to any others advertised. The hotel is in a very good location, but like most, is on a hill. The hotel is based at the end of a shopping centre (btw it’s not a shopping centre, it’s a few shops and a few cafes! It’s not an intu centre!!!!) once you are in the hotel, it’s like a tardis and you would never know it was on a street, especially when you get to that top floor! If you are a light sleeper, it’s not that sound proof! If you have mobility problems or are lazy, do not stay in this area as it’s very hilly!!! Best beach - playa de arena, best coffee shop is below the hotel - Macaronesia (wonderful cakes) and there’s a delicious curry house called Bombay Babu, which is a walk. The Volcano is a must and so is Siam water park! My husband and one child went to the dive centre in lol gigantes and did snorkelling which they loved and they also did parasending near los christianos. If you want a nice quiet holiday, then Puerto de Santiago is for you. If you want lilos, happy hours, karaoke and clubbing then go to one of the bigger towns in Tenerife! Would definitely come back to this hotel.

we knew that the reception was at the end of the shopping mall. WE,had a one-bedroom apartment.on the FIrst floor right above the restaurants and shops. it was extremely noisy, so we decided to move out after one night's stay. THere is a very Nice swimmingpool area above the top floor.
