Royal Tenerife Country Club

BEATIFUL RESORT. CLEAN WITH VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL STAFF. NEAR GOLF COURSE. QUIETER AS NOT IN LOS CRISTIANOS AREA BUT THIS CAN BE EASILY ACCESSED IN 20 MINS.

The resort does indeed sit higher up than most, but for my mind the constant breeze was a godsend ! Our apartment was excellent (sleep 6) but we did request a camp bed for my son as we wanted to keep the main room available to all. There was an encased statue between the two bedrooms - very aestetic but that space could be used for other purposes. There were two bathrooms - one en-suite, so no problems there. The ameneties were very good, but lacked somewhat in organised activities for kids. There was a kids club, but it could have been more pro-active. We benefitted from an apartment that looked directly onto the children's pool (105 )- great for access and keeping an eye on the kids without having to move from your patio area !! The pool bar and restaurant were of a good quality, if a bit pricey - don't know how the restaurant makes a profit as it was rarely 1/10 full. Food in there is excellent though. All in all a nice place to stay - though if you don't like aircraft noise stay away (didn't bother me) as it's not far from the beginning of the air strip. This would apply to any resorts on the Golf de Sur. The nearer to the pool areas you are, the less the noise - ring the resort directly and ask for specific requirements a week before if you so need. General ameneties are ok, supermarket pricey as you would expect, and the nearset bars are about 10-15 mins walk(San Blas Commercial centre). Best going to big supermarket about 3kms away if you are doing a 'big shop'.

Worth a try if you haven't been there before - seems to have many returns looking at the customer comments book.

Good luck.
