Royal Hideaway Corales Beach

We came for a 6 night much needed break. Most luxurious hotel we???ve stayed in. Our 4th floor suite was modern, huge, comfortable, well equipped and very clean. We used the adults only facilities as well as the pool nearest our suite. Always plenty of sun beds. Food was good though expensive but plenty of good restaurants and bars in La Caleta. Easy 20 min stroll to bars on Costa Adeje and also on frequent bus route to Los Cristianos.

We are staying in room 1605, one of the Penthouse 2 bed suites on the top floor of the hotel. There are only two of us, so we have ample space...the terrace is huge, with small plunge pool and terrific views over the pool and the sea beyond...there is a hotel in front of us- to the right a bit, but due to the fact we are on the 6th floor, this is absolutely not a problem. The suite is fantastically well appointed, with Bosch appliances, a wine cooler fridge and fabulous Porcelanosa and Hans Grohe bathroom equipment. On the terrace, we have 4 sun loungers, a dining table for 8 (alongside the wonderful dining table inside!) and a really chi chi corner unit seating area. The apartment is beautifully decorated in neutral colours with leather chairs in taupe and accents of pale blue and beige...gorgeous. Every thought has been given to our comfort...the room is thoroughly cleaned TWICE a day, with a quite unnecessary amount of clean towels...anyway, I can't recommend the hotel highly enough for fab design, gorgeous decor, brilliant 30m swimming pool and very amenable and helpful staff. We ate at the Starfish Restaurant poolside one lunchtime...very good and a good quantity of food. We did try both the Maresia and the San Hao. Very nice though little ambience, both proffering tasting menus at reasonable enough prices, but not if you don't want a tasting menu...we didn't realise, our fault. Nevertheless, we were absolutely starving after dinner and had to walk to the Spar in La Caleta (4 minutes walk) for chocolate..Food nice enough in the restaurants, but there really can't be much excuse for not giving one a good size portion of noodles!! This, however, was the only downside and totally avoidable by eating in one of the many very good restaurants 5 minutes walk from the hotel in La Caleta. I recommend the 88 (dimsum/japanese) and also the Russo del Mar for good quantity/price ratio!! Can't recommend the hotel enough...beautiful aspects everywhere as fantastic design..quite Gaudi-esque. Our apartment has rooms to front and back so sea at the front and mountains at the back. Really, really beautiful. We will be back.

This was our 5th stay here and our best one so far. Other than the beautifull architecture, amazing food and perfect weather the staff really made the difference this year! Everybody was always so friendly and helpfull, from the moment we arrived untill we left. A special thank you Nuria who took care of renting a padelfield for us and supplying us with all the information. We were really charmed by the note she left under our door, such a kind gesture. Also thank you to Victor at the breakfast who always made us smile when we entered restaurant Olivia, a funny guy who always knew what we wanted to drink :-) Thank you to all staff members! You were all great! See you all later! Mathieu and Chlo??
