HOVIMA SANTA MARIA 3 *

Claire is fantastic, she really makes the kids holiday special and enjoyable. They can't help but love her, nor can we. She does so much behind the scenes to make things happen that we don't see, and she never stops entertaining. Thank you so much Claire for keeping River and Hallie happy for several hours a day with the kids club, mini disco and so much more. You're amazing my dear, simply the best. SM wouldn't be the same without you 💖🤩🦄 xx

This hotel was pretty nice. Claire was really nice for the kids all the kids loved her. There was lots of activities on round the pool and stuff. The drinks were decent. Quite a lot of kids in the summer holidays so your children can make plenty of friends. The rooms were pretty good the room I was in had air con and a little fan ( I just used the air con because it was cooler ). I would recommend this place for families.

Very Nice hotel friendly staff very helpful and close to everything you need pubs food and shops Rooms very clean and looked after atmosphere seemed great around pool and the Irish pub that was part of hotel BUT 1 big issue for me was No air conditioning in all room asked at check in if portable units available but all booked could get one after I was home 2 weeks later and not having ac in rooms was a major issue in close to over 40+ temps but 2 dreadful fans in room that I could blow harder than Made sleeping a nightmare especially with 2 younger children thank god family had been moved to a room with ac and they could stay there when heat wave was going on I did reported dreadful fans to reception and they were very helpful staff but still no portable ac units are available and maintenance changed 1 fan for same junk as we had it did blow slightly better but in the end I had to go out and spending around 100 euro on fans and aids to try and get a good sleep Due to this 1 issue I don’t think I could stay here again but I will say again staff and hotel 10/10

We was in a room above the bar so When we asked to be moved they just said that is your room 10 days with no sleep at night I’m 65 years old with a disability and 10 days here absolutely ruined it because of our position above the bar

We came here at Easter for a week and decided we liked the hotel to go back in July. Firstly the location is where we like to be as we come to Tenerife a lot we know where we like to go. The hotel is very clean the pool gets a deep clean twice a week which is good to know. We went all inclusive and the food was great for us yes been to other hotels where you get more but you pay more. Staff are lovely and approachable if you need anything. My youngest love claire at mini club and asked to keep going. We will definitely be back.

Santa Maria is an old accommodation. Hovima operates a substantial portion, while the rest is privately owned. The necessary modernization/renovation has been a topic of discussion with the private owners for years. Fortunately, Hovima is able to acquire a number of rooms every year, so things will eventually work out. The shower drain doesn't drain properly, the Wi-Fi isn't consistent, many floor tiles are cracked, kitchen cabinets are a bit crooked, etc., etc. But all of that also has authentic charm. We have been coming here for many years and feel welcome. The staff (reception, dining room, technical service, really everyone) is fantastic. For us: we prefer the old Santa Maria with its charm to a modern, flashy place without a soul.

Just back from a week in the Santa Maria and could not fault it at all. Location was perfect so close to everything supermarkets on the corner beach walk 5 mins honestly the best location. Atmosphere was good. Rooms were standard rooms good storage and beneficial having a fridge. Balcony view was amazing. Rooms were cleaned very well and never had a problem. We didn’t have air con but did have two large fans. Claire is amazing at her job and is the real buzz around the place. What I did notice is how hard the staff work that maybe goes unrecognised. Whilst everyone is working at night enjoying there holiday you can see the restaurant staff still working and cleaning for the next day. Staff are brilliant nothing is a bother. Pool is great and having two pool tables is fab for kids. Food again always something to eat, i have two fussy children who tried something new every night which was a bonus. We changed dinner to lunch some days and again eveyething was good. If again we came back to Costa Adeje this would 100 percent be the hotel I would book. As a family of four we loved it. Thank you again!

Stayed here last week thers no air con in the rooms which is a bit of a disappointment the room was basic they put us in food is nice thers something for every one thers a bbq on a Monday night ther entertainment wasn't up to much don't think I'd go back but other than that it's was ok I suppose I'd give it a 5 out of 10
