El Duque

We booked this last minute with Jet2 Holidays and we weren't expecting much as it was quite cheap and 3 stars, however, the studio rooms were really big and good facilities (a bit dated but we don't care about that), the pools were lovely and it wasn't crowded so plenty of choice where to put your sun beds and umbrellas. We read mixed reviews on the food, but it was excellent, really good choice and variety every day ( but yes if you want burger chips and pizza everyday then you can). Good choice of meat and fish everyday and lots of fresh salads and deserts too. Also pool bar doing snack food all day too. Plenty of drinks to choose from on the all inclusive, so I was very glad we did that options as it was worth every penny. Hotel is a next to a shopping centre, very handy and close to bars and restaurants and a 5-10 min walk to the beach. Markets to buy your holiday t-shirts and sun glasses opposite twice a week. Overall very pleased and outdid our expectations. Staff great too - thank you.

The location is good and the atmosphere is nice. The animator ismael is very friendly and very nice to the people and very good for the activities

Enjoying an incredible week at El Duque. This wouldn't be the first time and it never ceases to feel like a home away from home. The hotel room was clean, quiet and air conditioned which was definitely a bonus. Ismael is a wonderful soul inside and out and made our stay memorable. He has come on so much since our previous stay and he just gets better and better. We were definitely kept busy with activities and he was more than willing to put on a few extra! Absolute credit to the team.

What a brilliant holiday we had! Ismael from the entertainment team made our experience at this hotel. He is very friendly, happy and always up for some fun and games. We really appreciated that he always made time for us. Great to see how much he has grown within his role in the entertainment team. Great hotel, clean and comfy rooms and good selection of food. Thank to Ismael and the team.

The main thing everyone have to know before booking is to check if the room you have choose have aircon, as unfortunately they do charge extra for room with aircon otherwise you will only have an electric fan which is not suitable in heat. Also the food is not brilliant and mainly similar food you get on daily basis for lunch and dinner. The best is a breakfast if you are English but also can be sometimes cold. Also at least in the room we been given the bath if you have shower is very slippery I was 28 weeks pregnsnt when we went so had to very careful to don't slip while have a shower, the showers head won't stay on and keep sliding down. The rooms definitely need some upgrade as they old. The prons are fact you close to both beaches with walking distance of 10min,also outside the hotel your have multiple shops for any essentials from the supermarket. The smaller pool is lovely and quiet, don't need to fight for beds or queue to the bar which is big plus.

Excellent stay Ismael very good at his job!

Fabulous hotel great location pool was fabulous some days we had to get there at 8 to put towels down but plenty of spaces water was brown so not the best to brush your teeth could do with air con but fan do e the job as it wasn't hot hot over all a lovely hotel went with husband sister and brother in law would definitely book agen

I was a bit apprehensive about the hotel after reading some of the reviews regarding the colour of the water. I only read these post booking, which is unusual for me but as a colleague stayed here last year and gave it his seal of approval, I didn't bother. As it happened, our apartment wasn't badly affected by the water. Yes there was a yellowish tint which was only really noticeable when I filled the sink to shave. It didn't impact on showering and we used bottled water for our teeth as a precaution. We arrived around lunchtime, seamless and quick check-in by a lovely lady who told us our room would be ready a couple of hours before the 3pm check-in time. We went back as instructed and were unceremoniously sent away by quite a rude gentlemen. I returned to the bar area for a drink and wait like the naughty child I was made to feel. After serving my detention, Mr Trunchbull let us have our room keys around 3:30pm in the block above the main restaurant. The room was spotless, a little dated but spotless. For a family of 4 the balcony was tiny, especially compared to the rooms below - they were huge! We had a small table and 2 chairs. I think the room was aimed at a couple as opposed to a family of 4. We generally like to sit out and play cards with the kids before heading out for dinner but we couldn't. Inside the bedroom was a good size, and the children (aged 12 & 10) had to make do with an L shaped settee. I would have expected more but the boys said it was comfy. Bathroom clean, had a bath and shower over which was good. Kitchen was a bit tired. On the first morning the toasted kept blowing the RCD, we reported to reception and they promised to replace. This didn't happen until the following day after we chased them a second time. With no AC it was a bit warm, but there were 2 pedestal fans. One for the main room and one in the bedroom. The hotel is well positioned in Costa Adeje, the CC Fanabe is only a 10 minute stroll downhill to opting for self catering was a no brainer. It's still quite cheap to eat and drink out in Tenerife so AI was never an option for us. The pool area is spotless to, well maintained and we never had an issue with sunbeds. After wandering to the seafront for breakfast and heading back around 11:00 - 11:30, we never failed to get a sunbed. The pool was closed and roped off until 10:00 any way so reserving beds didn't really happen We didn't use any other facilities while we were there so I can't really comment. Pool bars were good 4 Euros a pint which is cheaper than some places we have stayed at and the beer was really good too. I would definitely stay again if it came in as cheap as it did for May.

Me, My son Age 12, Mum and Fiance stayed here June 2026 we have just got back, 100% recommend this Hotel we loved it and would definitely return. We checked in around 11.30pm which we was then given upgraded rooms which was a nice suprise so we had 2 superior apartments, with some provided food and water in the fridge for us as it was a late flight time so this was a nice touch, The apartment was very spacious with seprate bedroom with a huge balcony with our own sunbeds and a sea view. The rooms were very clean. There are 2 pools one abit more lively so if u want abit more of a quiet atmosphere you could go round to the smaller pool. They allow lilos etc Staff were brill , great playing games through the day my son played jenga and water games. The food is lovley we was all inclusive, plenty to chose from i really enjoyed breakfast everything you could want..and the snack bar through the day has burgers, chips, pizza , salad, chicken nuggets etc.The choice for children on a evening isnt great for us personally but my son is a VERY picky eater so i cant complain as their is lots out to chose from and like I said before there is nuggets. Hot dogs etc out through the day for children. The all inclusive drinks selection is great , coke, wines, pre mixed cocktails, beer, voda, mixers, baileys etc. You can have proper glass sat near the bar or plastic cups around the pool. Their is snooker tables and ping pong table and a small park.The entertainment on a evening was great we had a magic show, singers and a comedy act all brilliant and then afterwards their would be quizzes and bingo,again staff brill good atmosphere. There was a kids disco for younger children too. The location is great next to some more bars, restaurants and a shopping centre. The costa adeje market is literally across the road on a Thursday and Saturday. The beach I'd say the way we walked is a 15/20 minute walk, there is a little train near by too. We also got a taxi to Los Christianos for a few hours which was 12 euros to get there. The only negative we have to say was our flight home was 10.30pm so we happily paid 30 euros per room extra to keep the room on untill 6pm , but was told at 12 our all inclusive stops and they actually locked our room so we had to go to reception to re activate the key where they then cut our bands off, which i personally think because we missed the first whole day as we didn't land untill 11.30pm so in my opinion we should have been aloud to keep our all inclusive untill we left or at least maybe untill 3pm so we could use the snack bar. I appreciate they gave us a plate of food when we landed but still I think it's abit harsh to cut our bands off at midday when we also paid to keep the rooms on.But overall 100% recommend this Hotel its beautiful, clean, tidy and friendly staff and a great location to get around. ( One other note to help is the supieror apartments we had are on the 3rd floor which you can get a lift to the 2nd floor but then have a flight of stairs u have to go up so if you struggle with stairs / mobility issues etc you may want to request a ground floor room/ mention this) Thank you for a wonderful stay *****

fantastic staff food location was awesome 10min walk to the beach

Nice hotel but a bit worn and dated. Had a bit of a problem with something being removed from our apartment by “mistake”, took a few days to get it back, although one item was not returned and was told by reception to go to an electrical store, buy a new one and they would reimburse me the cost, which they did. Pool bar serves food at lunchtime. I went one day to see if I could buy some fries to take back to our apartment, even offered to put them in a paper napkin, so that I didn’t have to take their plates, however was rudely informed that no way was I able to do that???, really what was the big deal. They insisted that all food was to be eaten by the bar. Also water from the taps has a brown tinge, after saying all that housekeeping was excellent, apartment cleaned everyday day, towels replenished daily.

Lovely atmosphere especially with Ismael, an unforgettable experience would definitely be back

Did 4nights 5 days here and was very happy the rooms where very clean and comfortable Staff all friendly and lovely The breakfast was really good my grandson and daughter really enjoyed it Lunch and dinner were ok but it’s all done to the individual to what u like Pool area, Clen 10 minute walk to the beach I would definitely come again to this hotel Atmosphere was good the other guests were so friendly and lovely had a great time chatting to them I don’t know what it’s like in the high season I found this hotel very quiet at night

Location is fabulous very close to shops restaurants Atmosphere very family orientated Rooms very spacious requires some updating. But very clean Bit disappointed with the water very brown amd smells foosty not nice to brush teeth or shower. Pool cleaned everyday Restaurant very clean Good value for money well worth going all inclusive. Would be better if Gordon's pink gin was included tho. Food was lovely but was put off a little by seeing loads of little flys and some blue bottles on the food Would be better covered Rice pudding and raw garlic was amazing All staff very welcoming and helpful Entertainment was very good at the start of our holiday we had a girl called Evelyn for a couple of days she was absolutely amazing at her job very kind friendly and a great entertainer kept the place alive and made it fun kids and staff loved her but 3 days in we heard she had left the kids gutted as us.
