me and my family have recently come back from granada park tenerife and i have to say it was fantastic, the hotel is beautiful, with its lovely pools and great surroundings, the rooms are hugh, there was 5 of us 4 adults and 1 child (12) we had a livingroom,kitchen,2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a balcony and a terrace, the hotel is 5 min away in a taxi from the strip but about 20 min if you walk, its close enough to the bars but far enough away from the hustle and bustle of veronicas i am a very fussy person so for me to say this is one of the best hotels ive stayed in, is saying somethink we enjoyed it so much were going back in 3 months, the extra bonus is the food is great to with very frendily people waiting on you ,all in all you cant go wrong with this hotel it was a really great find

me and my family have just come back from granada park and i have to say it was amazing,and for someone like me who is very fussy thats saying somethink i like my luxurys, granada park is brillant the rooms are fantastic, really big and very clean. There was 5 of us 4 adults an my 12 year old daughter and they gave us an apartment with a livingroom, kitchen, 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a balcony and a terrace, it was lovely, the staff are very friendly, and the food is great, there are 3 pools and plenty of sunbeds, the only thing about this hotel is its out the way abit but theres a taxi rank outside the hotel and your only 5 min from the strip also there was no entertainment on but that didnt bother us it was nice and quiet compared to the madness of veronicas strip, so if your looking for a brillant hotel not to far away from the nightlife but far enough for it to be pieceful i defantly recommend granada park were going back in 3 months thats how much we enjoyed it

We stayed in a lovely apartment with excellent all round views. The place was clean and tidy and the staff were very helpful and friendly.
We went to tenerife for other reasons than holiday but this was a wonderful place to relax after some difficult days.
They provide a daily free bus to take you down to las americas and pick you up again in the early evening. Walking up the hill is a bit hard in the hot weather so the bus is very helpful. Walking down to los cristianos and las americas only takes about 20 mins so it is near enough to the hustle and bustle but far enough away so not disturbed at night. It is very near golf course so if you are into golf a very nice place to stay.

Just returned from 2 weeks at Granada Park with our two children aged 3 and 6 months had absolutely fantastic time.
The apartment was immaculate and the biggest i have ever stayed in, cleanliness 5 star, all staff very helpful especially Michaela on reception she went out of the way for us all the time.
Wanted for nothing the facilities were fantastic they were even able to supply us with a pushchair.
Great supermarket on site with everything you could want for self catering holiday.
Peaceful location so relaxing and the food and drink fantastic. cannot fault this place at all infact we have booked again for christmas.
Having been to Tenerife five times now and stayed in various parts this is by far the best see you all at christmas Granada Park!!!

My boyfriend and I booked a last minute deal to Tenerife for a bit of sun and relaxation. We were slightly nervous as we were allocation on arrival but were very pleased when we arrived at the Granada Park. The apartment was huge, well stocked with fridge, freezer, toaster, fans, TV etc. The room was cleaned 5 days a week and the complex itself was immaculate. The 20 min walk to the beach was a great start to the day, however there was enough to keep us occupied at the pool. Had to search for typical spanish food as a 'British' menu was typical to most places we went to- tracked down a great place serving fab paella! Overall great early escape to the sun for us!

To other parents, grandparents or couples wanting a wonderful relaxing hols. in the sun, Granada Park is perfect! (and hot)
Away from the crowds, but close enough to Las Americas and Los Cristianos (half hour walk with a 4 and 6 yr old), or cheap taxi), to feel part of it.
The rooms are as described on the websites, roomy, nice view of pools for most, and boy! the cleanliness is 5 star. We watched teams of cleaners everyday round the pool and bar. They then come and sort out your room -wonderful!!
We really couldnt fault it!
would reccomend to anyone except if you are wanting an 18-30's holiday!!!!
no cockroaches on this complex!!!!!!!!
P.S at time of booking the deal with lastminute.com was cheaper than anyone else we could find.
Happy Hols!

I stayed in the Granada Park apartment for about a week over Christmas period. The apartment(236) was quite lovely and it did contain all amenities whatever one need.
The apartment was quite clean, spacious and the owner did keep me engaged by storing some novels, DVD’s etc. Had a TV as well which did telecast a couple of English channels.
Nice bathroom, good balcony views, and excellent pool facilities. It was quite relaxing and the locations quite superb,15 ins walk 2 Los Cristianos.
Even if u prefer taxi it shouldn't cost you more than 5 Euros.
Looking forward to come here again and would certainly recommend for ones who want a peaceful holiday. Really felt at home!!

The apartments are huge with everything needed for home comforts. No air conditioning although there were ceiling fans so we found that fine.
We had a top floor apartment with a pool view which is what we requested, and were very pleased as it gave us a really big terrace. You are a little bit out of the way with a 20minute walk into the town, or taxi which is cheap (taxi rank outside entrance). This was an advantage to us as we went for some laid back peace and quiet and found the walk pretty good after all the lazing around.
The pool bar does some really good food and is very friendly. This complex is very clean, everywhere is spotless.

Apartments were amazing, really enjoyed them. The only thing is that we were told when we booked them we were right in the middle of all the shops and bars but we were not, it was a 20 min walk. My mother has bad legs so had to get a taxi every night back up to our apartments. Thank goodness we never had small kids with us.
Pool was very clean. Supermarket was good and cheap. Apartments all in were really lovely. Nice food also served in the pool bar.
The second week we had very loud teenagers next door to us. Again, thank goodness we did not have kids with us but someone else must have called security because they were at their door and were soon quiet.
Don’t recommend these for people who don’t like walking.
I thought all in though you could not fault these apartments, they are beautiful.

My boyfriend and I are just back from staying in the Granada Park Apartments. It was only a 1 bedroomed apartment we asked for and we were very surprised at what we got.
We had a safe in the room (which we rented for around 30 euros plus deposit, which we thought was worth it), a large fridge and separate freezer, two ceiling fans, a large bathroom including hairdryer, a TV with plenty of channels (BBC1, 2 and ITV, Sky News, Eurosport).
We also had a sunterrace because we were on the top floor (we requested a pool view and high floor which we received) it had a light, electrical socket and even a tap in it. The only problem was we didn't use it much because you had to rent sun loungers and we prefer being at the pool as well. It would be handy if there were four or five staying in the room and you took a few chairs up, it was nice to enjoy the sunset and a few drinks. Maid service was around 6 days a week which was excellent. The receptionists were very helpful, we bought tickets to go to the Loro Park, Jungle park and Aqualand and got a very good deal.
There was a supermarket at the complex which had plenty of food and drink, the only disappointment was they only sold one newspaper (The Sun) and if you weren't there early enough to buy one they were all gone. It was open from 9am-5pm everyday. However, one day it didn't open, after asking at reception we found out this was because one of the girls was on holiday and the other girl needed a day off. This was very disappointing as they had no cover and the shop was closed the whole day. If you needed to buy water or basic essentials you had to go to either Los Cristianos or Las Americas and spend money on a taxi probably to get back. The pool bar was also closed on the same day until 3pm which was strange, it looked like a misunderstanding from some of the staff as one person seemed to turn up to work at 9am and ended up staying until 3pm until someone came to open it up.
The pool bar had delicious food, their menu was ok for a snack at dinner time or the odd meal at night but if you were there on full board i think you'd get fed up of the same food. They didn't have too much variety however they did have salads (not just fatty foods), burgers, and a few other things but not much and the menu didn't change. They had a specials menu which stayed the same the whole time we were there. We had a meal there twice and the portions were very generous, the food was lovely and they do an excellent English breakfast!
There wasn't much entertainment, one band played twice while we were there but it was very early around supper time and people would have still been at the pool. There was a reptile show one Saturday which was ok but didn't last that long. However, this would not put us off staying here again as we went out most nights. The pool was cleaned everyday and we also saw a gardener a few times who was there to tidy the plants etc which was impressive. There was a small play area for children and mini golf which was good, the children that were staying there at the time seemed to be enjoying themselves and kept entertained.
The only other thing was we always had to get a taxi home at night and spent a bit of money as it was around 5-8 euros each time from both Los Cristianos and Las Americas. We walked down most nights to either of the main centres which didn't bother us. We timed it as a 20 minute walk but it was a nice enough walk, not too much waste land.
All in all we had a great stay at these apartments and would recommend it to mostly anyone, apart from disabled people as it is quite hilly at the complex and I'm not sure if young children would like walking down to Los Cristianos or Las Americas. I think it was a lovely place to stay and not too far away from the main centres Los Cristianos and Las Americas. I would definitely go back with more of my friends or family.

Granada Park cannot be faulted, it is a lovely place to stay, and the rooms are very homely and very clean. There is a ceiling fan in the living room and the bedroom which was great.
The pools are lovely and warm and all staff was very nice.
The only thing I did not like about Granada Park was the location, it is too far away from the resort. It took 20 minutes to walk to the beach and main resort area and I had a very unhappy 3 year old each time we did this journey.
So I would say that although Granada Park itself is a lovely place and suited for families its location is not ideal.

Beautiful, clean apartments. Staff very friendly and helpful. Very secluded and peaceful. Had a wonderful relaxing holiday.
Only bad thing bar closed early. Good for families and couples. Clean pools. Would definitely go again. Taxi to town 5 euros and taxi to airport 25 euros. Good supermarket on site. Very pleased with overall holiday at Granada Park and considering going next summer.
Very quiet and peaceful at night. Felt safe in apartment and in complex. And didn’t see one cockroach just a couple of lizards. More like a 4 star hotel.

Had a great week, would recommend to mainly families! Very quiet peaceful location. Pool was cleaned daily and there were plenty of free sun loungers everyday. Would not recommend to young people, bar was closed at half 9 every night. Entertainment was aimed more at families and that finished about half 10. Food was horrible.
Most food was not labeled, which created problems as it was mainly Spanish foods. Service is excellent here though. Arrived in the middle of the night and reception had packed lunches waiting for us. Bar staff were great, very friendly! Rooms are extremely spacious, big balconies with great views, large kitchen area and big bathroom! Area was nice, 10 minute walk or 2 minute taxi ride to either Las Americas or Los Cristianos. Taxis were very cheap, 25 euros to airport or 5 euros to Las Americas.
Overall, I would recommend Granada Park for anyone looking for a nice peaceful holiday!
