Arona Gran & Spa

I have stayed at the Arona's sister hotel the Vulcano but this was my first time at the Arona and I was not disappointed. All the reasons that I chose it for lived up to my expectations and more. I could not find fault with anything. The food, entertainment, pools and the eating areas outside were wonderful. You are right on the sea front so lovely outlook too. All the staff were friendly and helpful from reception, the entertainment team and housekeeping . I enjoyed every minute and will definitely be back.

We found that the reception staff were not particularly welcoming when we arrived. Unlike other hotels we have visited we did not get to know the management staff. The room was clean but the bathroom needed updating. There was water all over the floor after every shower. We always like to have a sea view and did so again on this occasion, but this option was particularly expensive in our view at around £400 extra. Pool area was very pleasant and we enjoyed swimming and chilling. Pool cues were not properly maintained, with no chalk. Darts disappeared after a few days. Generally the food was excellent. This was our third stay. We enjoyed starting the day with a glass of cava and of fresh orange juice. There were plenty of options for breakfast, including continental and cooked as well as a range of fruit, including amazing bananas. Evening meal starters were impressive throughout the stay especially on gala nights. Good choice of mains. Desserts were delicious. Cheeses often looked unappetising, stuck together and wet. We only saw 3 acts in the evening entertainment. The support acts were generally pleasant to listen to. The Queen and Beatles tributes were pretty ordinary. The vocals were weak for the Queen songs, and you don’t sound like the Beatles just by putting on silly wigs. The Rock Travellers were however excellent and the female lead vocalist was very strong including on Queen songs. Umbrellas by pool needed some repair. Very enjoyable and informative excursion to the North West. We enjoyed walking to Las Americas although enjoyment was somewhat spoilt by the huge number of scooters being ridden along the sea front.

Lovely Hotel. I had actually booked to go to the Hotel Vulcano as I had been to the Arona Gran twice already this year. However at the last minute received an email from the Vulcano to say the buffet even meal was not available. I therefore changed to Arona Gran and very happy I did. As always the staff are very nice and helpful. The food is excellent and the hotel is kept to a very high standard. The evening entainment is good and some of the support acts are just as good as the main acts I have no problem in recommended this hotel

We stayed here for 7 nights from the 6th September. The hotel has the wow factor when you walk in. Our room 244 I think 🤔 was excellent. Probably the best room and balcony we have ever had. The pool area was very clean and you could always get sunbeds. The entertainment was very good, especially the queen tribute act who were awesome!!. The staff here are excellent, very friendly and helpful. I particularly liked the gym which was superb 👌 ! Gloria the lady in charge was very helpful!! Absolutely the best hotel gym I have ever seen. The food was good but they cater for a lot of people so it's never going to be piping hot!. It must be pointed out that the average age is probably 70 but that was no problem. It did mean that the hotel quickly quietened down after 11pm. Overall a excellent, value for money holiday. Thank you to the staff and management!!

My wife and I stayed at the Gran Arona for two weeks for the 1st time recently and we both agreed it was probably the best hotel we’d been at in all the (30 plus) years we’ve been holidaying abroad. In our opinion, food in the restaurant was exceptional including; presentation, vast variations and to a high standard. All the hotel staff were also friendly and helpful which made our holiday experience at this location even better and we intend returning.
