Colon Guanahani

Amazing hotel. Lovely staff and excellent customer service from all. Took luggage to the room, provided beach & pool towels daily and no race for sun loungers. Very chilled atmosphere which was perfect for a chilled holiday. We only did bed and breakfast, the food was great and plenty of choice. Room cleaned brilliantly & fresh water provided daily. Good location close to shops, restaurants and bars but not too close it’s loud or rowdy. Would 100% stay here again, definetly worth the price!

Had a great time, room was lovely and clean. If you want a very quiet holiday this is the place to go.

2nd time at this hotel and it was amazing yet again, stayed in many many hotels in Tenerife, all good to be fair, but this just puts the rest in the shade

We thoroughly enjoyed our 10 nights here. Very clean hotel breakfast was good everything we wanted freshly cooked eggs omelettes etc. they have teapots if that’s your thing and milk jugs. Only negative for me was we were woken every morning at 8 o’clock by I think the cleaners not sure but someone dragging sunbeds around at the roof top pool. Our room was directly underneath. I know it’s not particularly early but we couldn’t have had a lie in if we wanted to. Other than that all lovely comfy sunbeds pools nice to swim in all great. May return even 😎

Hotel staff were all lovely, friendly, nothing was too much trouble, they could not do enough for you. Hotel was immaculate, good food choices, excellent hotel, our room was on the ground floor facing the pool, we could not of got a better room. Pool was heated which was a bonus and the scenery from the roof pool was exceptional

Super time as always . Friendly polite staff and clean, well cared for premises. Plenty of breakfast choices. We'll be back!

Lovely hotel, excellent location, nice and quiet, plenty of sunbeds, plenty of room to swim, great for couples only. We were breakfast only, plenty of choices can’t fault.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Colon Guanahani and found it excellent value for money. The vibe is quiet and relaxed, the service efficient and the staff are particularly welcoming and helpful. The food is varied and of good quality with lots of choice. Everything is kept spotlessly clean. We loved the low key live music every evening. We've been before and we'll definitely be back!!

Once again we had another fabulous stay at the Colon Guanahani. From arriving at the hotel to check out every member of staff wants to ensure that your holiday is memorable and enjoyable. The rooms, dining, pool areas and hotel environment were all excellent. We have already booked for next year and look forward to another relaxing and exceptional stay.

We returned home last Friday after a lovely relaxing 10 night stay at this hotel. The location is great, very central and walking distance to many bars, shops and restaurants. We paid extra for a superior room which was worth every penny. We had pool and sea views which were lovely to look at while sitting on the balcony. We were half board and the food is good, we were also able to take advantage of the table service menu at no extra cost. The sunbeds are super comfy and you would always get one at any time of the day. Pool towels are provided. The lifeguard does remove them from the sunbeds after 10am if nobody is using them although the claim for sunbeds does start at least 2 hours previous to this. There isn't any music playing around the pool but it's a nice atmosphere anyway so it's not missed. Above everything else the staff are what make this hotel. Everyone is friendly, helpful and can't do enough for you. A special mention to Rubens who was always kind and thoughtful to my mum who asked lots about where to visit in Tenerife during our stay.

Very sad 😥. We have been coming here for many years, the two main reasons we return are the truly wonderful staff and the peaceful & tranquil environment. The latter is now almost non existent, from large single sex bookings, to families with portable music systems hidden under their sunbeds, diving and bombing into the pool as soon as the life guard turns his back, guests being allowed to bring in their friends from breakfast to late evening and then again the following day taking up sunbeds, using the pool, hotubs, toilets etc is totally unacceptable, we are paying a lot of money for this holiday and they are allowed in for free! I could go on but I'm just so sad, we love the Colon Guanahani but with this new Butlins feel, it looks like we will now have to find a new hotel, one that offers the peaceful ambience the Colon Guanahani used to offer 😢

This is my 2nd visit to the hotel and would highly recommend it. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and nothing was to much trouble. The rooms were lovely and well equipped and cleaned daily with regular bed linen changes. The location is ideal and very central but not to noisy and not far from the beach at all. The food was good with a reasonable variety to choose from( was half board). The pool areas had sufficient beds. I would certainly recommend this hoitel and look forward to visiting again.

This is a truly fabulous hotel spotlessly clean very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was first class good range of foods to cater for all needs Only a short walk to the main promenade. Pool area was lovely, free towel service as well. I would highly recommend and we would definitely stay again.

A warm welcome, informative and then shown to our room. The room was beautiful and had everything needed; two sun-bed towels, dressing gown and slippers each. Walk in wardrobe with plenty of storage, free safe, fresh water every day, fridge, hairdryer, shampoo and handwashing provided. Coffee machine and kettle. Two sun beds on the balcony. Tv has English channels and sky sports 1. The room and hotel are spotless. There are three sunbathing areas, one with no pool, one around the bottom two pools and one on the roof. Can have waiter service to your sun-bed, if you set up a tab it can be charged to your room. The breakfast was lovely, lots to choose from and served both streaky and back bacon. Could sit inside or out, table cloths always on both here and at the pool bar. Waiters were always smartly dressed, friendly, attentive and helpful. Some form of entertainment on whilst people had their evening meal, saxophonist, singers and pianist. Further entertainment later in the evening which was good and varied. The hotel is in a good location, is up a hill from the beach (if you have mobility issues) but can go the other way which is flatter. Taxi rank over the road. A mix of nationalities, and majority older but this meant there was a very calm and relaxed feeling to the whole place. We loved our stay and will be back I’m sure.

The hotel and staff were amazing. The food choices were not to our liking, we ended up only eating the evening meal twice, the other five evenings we ate out. Which really isn't the point when we've paid half board. Also the cleaning staff, annoyingly waking us up every single morning around 7.30-7.40am, with the cleaning of the room above. I know they have a job to do and they do it really well but with not thought of the people sleeping on the floor below. Moving furniture around. I actually have recording of the notices that were made, I actually woke up the first time and thought it was thunder. I did mention to someone on the phone who contacted me the evening before we left. Lovely hotel, more for the older clientele. I'm a young 62 year old but this isn’t for me.

A little disappointed, to be honest. After reading so many great reviews, we booked a Superior Twin Room on the 4th floor. Unfortunately, the hotel did not live up to our expectations. As soon as we checked in, I didn’t get that “wow” feeling. The reception area looked dated, with chipped floor tiles, and I hoped our room would make a better impression. Sadly, it didn’t. Although the room overlooked the pool, the entrance faced the main road, and there was frequent traffic noise. The room itself felt small, tired, and in need of refurbishment. The plug sockets were loose and unstable in the wall, the desk had several chips and looked as though it dated back to the 1970s, and after walking barefoot around the room, the soles of my feet felt gritty. The air conditioning worked adequately, but it took some time to become effective. There was no hotel information available in the room, no local area guide, and no instructions for using the coffee machine. I also couldn’t find any information regarding the pillow menu mentioned in the hotel’s description. Overall, it felt more like self-catering accommodation than a luxury hotel. Everything in the room felt old and worn. It certainly wasn’t the luxury experience I had expected, and it didn’t make us feel particularly special. This stay was meant to be a surprise for my wife’s 50th birthday, and I felt embarrassed that I had chosen this hotel. I booked it because it was featured in the travel agent’s Luxe Collection, but in my opinion, it falls below the standard of other luxury properties we have stayed in. I believe the travel agent should reconsider its classification. To be fair, it is perfectly pleasant for an average holiday stay. The pool, outdoor dining areas, and staff were all lovely. However, I would rate this hotel closer to a 3-star-plus property than a 4- or 5-star hotel. Had I known that beforehand, I would not have booked it for what was intended to be our luxury stay.

Just back from an amazing 2 weeks stay. This was our 2nd visit & was just as good as last time...if not better! Requested the same room as last time or as near & we were delighted to find we got the exact room! The cleanliness in this hotel is fantastic, sunbeds getting steam cleaned regularly, as was the upholstery on the furniture in communal areas. Our housekeeping ( or the female we had at room 323b) was exceptional & very friendly, never passed without a hola etc. In fact all staff from the reception to the restaurant & also the pool were extremely friendly. And lovely to see bottle of water & coffee pods still getting delivered to the room every day. A bottle of 🍾 in the fridge on arrival with 2 glasses to go with it was a lovely touch. We only went b/b as we have lots of great restaurants we like to visit ( especially TeDs on the front) & the new Limoncello across from hotel is a great new option to eat if we didn't want to wander far. The breakfast had everything hot/cold to suit even the fussiest of eaters & the omelette station was great...as was the cava to kick start my day! It appears to be a big hotel but its actually not, which i think gives it more of a personal touch. Great book swap section next to the jacuzzi area. So we have liked it so much again, we have booked for our 3rd visit next year...we're definitely hooked!😎

This was our second visit and as it was our honeymoon we booked the top floor suite. It was amazing! Very spacious with sun right until sunset. The hotel is so calm and peaceful with staff who take pride in their work, the place is spotless and the pools are wonderful with no music just a calm place to relax and enjoy some down time. This year the evening entertainment was outside rather than inside which meant there was no option but to listen to the music and on one particular evening it was very loud despite all doors and windows being shut. This was the only issue we had throughout our 10 days stay however. Food was lovely with lots of variety including vegetarian options. We took a walk along the coast to La Caleta one morning which I highly recommend.

Simply fantastic adults only hotel in Costa Adeje, Tenerife. A relaxing oasis of calm and tranquility that lets you recharge your batteries in wonderful surroundings. The hotel is always immaculately clean and the staff friendly and helpful. Food at breakfast and in the evening was buffet style, plentiful and extremely tasty with a great selection. The pools were simply wonderful with no annoying pool music and they all enjoyed great sun beds with towels supplied by the hotel. We booked one of the executive rooms on the top floor and it was fabulous. Spacious, comfortable, and enjoying great views to the front and rear of the hotel

We have definitely fallen in love with this hotel. Staff are friendly and polite. The hotel isn’t huge so no fighting mass crowds. Adults only, 2 lovely pools, comfy sunbeds, lovely rooms with everything you need. Food in snack area was nice and main dining hall has great meals. Entertainment was pretty good. Location is great for us. All the people we’ve spoken to are either regulars or said they’d come back. Very clean. We will go back again for sure.

3rd stay, excellent. This hotel does everything to make your stay relaxing and stress free. No hidden charges of any kind. All staff very helpful and friendly. Pools are heated and pool areas so relaxing. Stayed 1/2 board, breakfast and dinner were of excellent quality. Absolutely no negatives. Already booked for next year, says it all.

We have been to this amazing hotel many times. The staff from the maintenance to the management are so very polite and friendly, everyone speaks and all are happy to help make your holiday special. The food variety is really good in both breakfasts and evening meals and the pool bar has a good range too. The tranquil atmosphere is so relaxing with light music on an evening creating a lovely atmosphere. Love this hotel, we are back again in October

pleased to get the top floor room we had requested nice room with walk in wardrobe really good shower and comfortable bed and lovely large balcony on which to sit at the end of the day and watch the world go by . The food was excellent and plenty choices the starters in particular were beautifully presented a work of art We enjoyed the evening entertainment and in particular our favourite was the Spanish dancers The only disappointment was the behaviour of the guests who did not respect the rules regarding not reserving sunbeds, we would go down to breakfast at 8.30 and three quarters of the sunbeds on the roof top area had towels on them despite the rules saying no sunbeds until 0930 To finish on a positive note the staff do an amazing job friendly and efficient and made us feel at home we will definitely look at returning next year

This is a lovely hotel, I stayed recently for 2 weeks on a half-board basis. I was travelling solo for the first time in many years and already knew Tenerife and the resort very well having visited many times over the years and staying across the road in their sister hotel. The location is perfect, a very short walk down to the sea front and walks in either direction to La Caleta or PDLA. I was seeking relaxation and peace and this provided it in a safe and welcoming atmosphere. I enjoyed a top floor superior sea view room which was perfect and special mention to the housekeepers who always made sure it was clean and welcoming to come back to. Complimentary water everyday and bubbly on arrival and on my birthday. Plenty of tea, coffee, milk in the room and replenished every day. The upper sun deck and pool area was fantastic. Some of my most memorable moments were when I had the small pool to myself and would just gently swim or float up and down, it was just so nice, always a welcoming breeze in the heat and the views were great. The main pools were also great. There were always plenty of sunbeds around the three main distinct sunbathing areas available despite the hotel being almost full when I was there. I used the gym room regularly, although it was small, it was immaculate and the equipment all worked perfectly. The restaurant was also excellent, both breakfast and evening dinner, the egg station in the morning was perfect and the chefs always cheerful and friendly and the waitresses serving my table with drinks were all wonderful and a credit to the hotel. The evening buffet dinner options were also always great quality and there was plenty of variety. I loved the starters which were always very creative and super tasty and I always walked back to my table with two different options! The restaurant staff also went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and looked after me as I was always eating alone and they were super friendly and kind. The manager on my first visit, also provided me with my own special table for the entire duration of my stay which was away from the busy main areas and in a very discrete and quite private area. It was such a nice touch and I will remember my table number 52 very fondly! The thing that I loved about the hotel most of all is the friendliness of the staff, there was always a hello or a wave which is especially important when you're travelling alone as it makes you feel welcomed, recognised and connected to where you are staying. Carlos on reception is a great ambassador for the hotel, very friendly and helpful and would always wave and say good morning to me as I walked by reception on many a morning as I went out for my very early morning runs. Thank you for a memorable stay!

Fabulous adults only hotel with mixed age clientele in a quite part of Tenerife but only ten minute walk to the main promenade Beautiful superior room with a pool view lovely balcony with a sun umbrella really thoughtful The bathroom had a large walk in shower and a bath which I loved The whole hotel is spotlessly clean with your room being cleaned daily with clean bedding every couple of days The restaurant is nice and large with all tablecloth dressed tables away from the buffet servery plus an amazing outdoor area with plenty of tables to eat al fresco. The food was very good with plenty of choices. There were two swimming pools and always plenty of sunbeds in addition there is roof top pool and area To compliment the pools there is a restaurant/bar serving meals,snacks and drinks plus a waiter service The evening entertainment is amazing and finally all the staff are friendly helpful and excellent This hotel is very very good and we shall return next year You need to GO

We stayed here at Colon Guanahani for 12 nights and it was perfect. Lovely peaceful hotel with the most welcoming staff and excellent facilities. Lovely breakfast each morning and a lovely bar area by the pool during the day and light entertainment at night. We can't wait to come back. About 10 mins walk to the main beach area and strip. The room was serviced daily and was always in spotless condition. If you want a peaceful stay in Adeje then look no further than this hotel.

We love this hotel. Been 6 times now. Latest trip with my daughter in June. Staff are very friendly especially Flavio in the hotel bar, always had time for a chat with us. Reception staff great at check in, we always ask for our usual room and have been luckily allocated that every stay. Breakfast good choice, freshly cooked eggs, omelette. Rooftop pool very quiet so we spent our days there. Will always return. Thank you Guanahani 😊

We stayed a week in June. Hotel is near Marina, promenade, beach, bars and restaurants. Smallish hotel which we preferred. Hotel is clean and staff work hard in keeping it this way. Staff are friendly and warm welcome each time you see them. Food is very good and plenty to choose from. Free bottle of bottle in the room daily until you have put your do not disturb sign on the door. Safe is also free. Gym we used daily and adequate for a week’s stay. I can see why they have no water when using the gym, we came prepared and used water provided. Hotel had someone playing an instrument or someone singing most nights. This is a quieter of hotels, this suited us well. Only issues we had were hotel guests not closing their room door gently. We will return. Great stay, thank you to all staff for a restful stay.

We went for our diamond wedding anniversary. Fantastic hotel didn’t want to leave. Everything was outstanding I.e. food,staff,rooms, pools. Couldn’t fault anything. All the staff (without exception) seemed to really love working there. Will definitely return and would highly recommend this hotel

We have recently returned from another delightful holiday at the Colon Guanahani. This was our 3rd visit and will definitely be returning. All the staff from reception/housekeeping/restaurant/kitchen and any other behind the scenes work so hard to keep the hotel/pool/ rooms all spotless and are very helpful.

Our third time to Costa Adeje, our second time at this hotel, the first time was at least ten years ago. We will be sure to stay there again on our next visit to Tenerife. We stayed on a bed & breakfast basis and I have to say it is one of the best breakfast spreads I have seen anywhere. Whatever your tastes, cheeses, meats, full English, omelettes and fried eggs cooked to order, fruits of all kinds, it just can't be faulted. The room was a good size with plenty of wardrobe space and an abundance of coat hangers. Incredible shower, with plenty of hot water and a powerful rain head as well as a hand held jet. Excellent housekeeping with fresh towels every day (although we didn't request this). Lovely pool area with plenty of sunbeds/parasols and a well stocked bar. Excellent access throughout the hotel for wheelchair users although it is a testing walk up from the seafront for those with restricted mobility. The Colon Guanahani does appear to appeal to the slightly more mature clientele although there doesn't appear to be any particular reason why it should. I would most definitely recommend this hotel and will doubtless be going back to stay there on our next visit to the island.

We are just home from a fantastic trip staying at Hotel Colon Guanahani. This hotel is like a breath of fresh air where you can relax and recharge your batteries. The pros of this hotel are: the staff, the rooms, the location and its cleanliness. The cleaning staff need to be praised as everywhere was spotless and the rooms were cleaned to such a high standard. There wasn’t an insect insight! The cons of this hotel: the food. We had stayed for breakfast & dinner but ended up only eating in three nights out of seven. It was just average. The food hygiene level was excellent and there was plenty of choice, but we just felt the quality of the food wasn’t high enough. The sauna and the roof top pool was out of order during our whole stay which was disappointing. We would definitely come back on a breakfast only basis as it was peaceful and relaxing. A big shout out to all the staff who were so friendly and helpful. Thank you!

We absolutely loved this hotel! The pools are heated which is a massive draw for us. The rooftop pool was being maintained unfortunately for us but it’s a stunning area with beautiful views of the sea. All the sun loungers had a thick comfortable fabric covered mattress and we even had 2 to ourselves on the room terrace so no rushing for a sunbed. Not that getting a sunbed was ever an issue as there’s also a large solarium up on the first floor. We thought the pool towels were great as you got 2 each , they are extra long ( so completely cover the beds) and one has a flap so it sits nicely and doesn’t move on your sunbed. Everything was really nicely designed , spotlessly clean and well maintained through out the hotel . Our room was great with everything you could need. Huge walk in shower in a v modern bathroom. Bed v comfortable. A walk in wardrobe with loads of ‘proper’ good quality hangers. We were impressed that a large bottle of water and more coffee pods were delivered daily. We enjoyed breakfast, a vast choice and great quality food. I particularly enjoyed the fresh fruit and the fresh croissants ( they also have proper English bacon!) You can either eat on the beautiful terrace area or inside. We didn’t have dinner so can’t comment on that but we did hear the lovely music that was played early evening. Location is great, a short walk to restaurants, bars, shops, beach etc etc Staff were all great, helpful and happy. I’m sure we’ll return, very impressed.

Just returned from an expensive holiday. I got food poisoning from the buffet restaurant on the one evening I did not choose a la carte. I lost a full day and night spent in bed very unwell. Thank goodness the bedroom was kept spotlessly clean every day by the amazing cleaning team. To make matters worse on the final evening we both ordered a la carte chicken which had to be returned immediately to the kitchen as it was raw. Oh dear, shall we return no is the answer. Such a shame when the restaurant staff and managers were all so friendly. Someone in the kitchen is careless.
