Reviews of Gran Hotel Bahia del Duque in Tenerife
from DC, guest in August 2010: "We had a lovely relaxing time. The service and hotel was impeccable. The Kids Club was the best we have seen. It’s the first time that I am actually considering returning to a hotel in the future."
from TM, guest in July 2010: "We had lovely time and enjoyed the hotel very much. We now wish we had taken your advice on the ground floor bedrooms you recommended, ours was fine but these looked in a much better location close to the pool and bars with a short walk off the balcony to do so.
Staff all very friendly, room and facilities all clean. I did the hotel survey, they emailed me saying all positives.
We would go there again and definitely book through you.
I would like to find out about half board to include the other restaurants, if possible. Tusca and the Asia, we tried and were good, Asia exceptional. The fish restaurant for lunch amazing.
Kids club fantastic, people lovely and the activities and things they made for kids superb.
We thought to ourselves the gate was not secure enough with little top lock and older brother and sisters were coming in to collect younger kids at different times agreed by the staff and parents. They seemed to have good control telling them to get the mums and dads to confirm this to be ok.
In our last three days they were fitting a buzzer/ key swipe system which will be much better.
Kids entertainment fantastic.
We loved the fact the Upper levels were the kids area's and when on the lower levels you were not aware of any children, so great mix. We would not have a problem going there without kids for this reason.
We found drinks and bits during the day expensive but euro exchange rate was rubbish so did not help. I would not fly easyjet again with my family as it's too much of a scramble to find seats together.
Overall a good 9 out of 10."
from Deborah Barnett of Tots Too: "I went to this hotel in September with my husband and 2 children aged 10 months and 2 and half. This is an ideal hotel for families with young children. The kids pool is small but perfectly formed. It's great to be able to relax whilst watching the tots splash about in very shallow safe depth water. In fact our little one didn't want to go into the kids club (which looked amazing and has plenty to keep the little ones amused) because she was happy playing with all the other kids in the pool. The mini disco for kids in the evening was great - just 30 mins of bopping around to very cheesy music following by some entertainment which was actually pretty good. It's right in front of the French restaurant so we were able to enjoy our meal whilst our daughter flitted between us and the disco/entertainment. There are baby purees available fresh if you need them, good room service options for young children and plenty of restaurants at the hotel plus a pharmacy within walking distance.
It is expensive to eat in the hotel but there are good value restaurants within walking distance of the hotel so you don't need to spend a fortune. The beach is nothing to write home about and is public so expensive sunbeds but you don't need the beach because there are lots of swimming pools and loads of sunbeds at the hotel.
I recommend taking a suite because the standard doubles are small and way too small to have a child in with you. We had a suite with separate lounge area and sofa bed and this was brilliant with 2 children. All in all a very good family option with a short haul flight. And if your budget will manage it, the new villas look amazing!!"
