Massive hotel with several pools. One was heated and most popular. Great facilities including gym and archade with games for kids. I had a very large room, looked more like an apartment (minus the kitchen). The only let down was the food. A bit hit and miss.

This hotel is fabulous. Great facilities with lots of pools on 2 levels to suit everyone. Dining room is large but even though it is busy, it was well run & organised. It was always immaculately clean with quality food & plentiful & well presented. Staff were polite & although there were always visible, they kept a low profile & didn’t spoil people's holiday with 'silly rules'. Great location with a 5 minute walk to the beach & shops & bars nearby There was nothing I didn't like about this hotel although some days the room towel were a bit thin & smaller when changed but this wouldn't stop me returning in the future

Don’t think this hotel should be a 4 star?
This hotel is in a great location! Not sure what makes it have the high star rating of a 4 though. I tend to book hotels based on there star rating and not the price as it usually gives you a good indication of what sort of hotel you will be staying at. The rooms seem very outdated and certain parts of the hotel also seem a little run down. It does have real potential to be a great hotel though. I just think I had an idea of what a 4 star hotel was… but this wasn’t that. (In my opinion) I usually stay at the Princess Hotel just down the road but it was fully booked when I booked my trip at short notice, that hotel is also a 4 star but completely different in standard. The one thing I will say though, the staff were so friendly and lovely!

Well situated close to shops and beach, hotel has plenty of options for food and drink. House cocktails are very watery and not mixed very well, but you can have premium cocktails for about €3 extra if all inclusive which was a little disappointing, the pool and table tennis was also expensive. Food was great, and staff were amazing. Definitely recommend this hotel.

Outdated
Hotel is in dire need of renovation, we had to switch one room due to bugs (tiny spiders) in the room. However, apart from that it seemed clean, and the staff was very polite and accomodating in resolving the room issue. Food was OK. So overall not that bad, but would probably not return...

I’ve stayed at this property a lot over the years since 2001 and the food has always been great with lots of choice. Unfortunately this time around the food was extremely poor. I am not a fussy eater but I struggled to find anything to eat and I’m genuinely shocked at how poor the food was. The staff on reception came across as rude and abrupt and the rooms were quite small and uncomfortable. On a positive note, the pool areas and grounds are really nice. I will never stay at this hotel again.

Good quality hotel, walkable distance to beach, bars and restaurants. Supermarkets and shop within a couple of minutes walk. Costa Adeje is beautiful and worth visiting. Only issues with hotel were (1) check in - the lady took my details but then didn’t tell me which room, where it was or give me my key - I had to ask her twice. (2) the room I was in was next to a mechanical / maintenance room - the noise from which made it really difficult to sleep at night (3) the room was next to main road and veranda opened up onto this rather than pool side. Meant it wasn’t worth using / sitting outside on an evening / night. Overall though the hotel was decent and clean with friendly staff.

Reasonable hotel for the price
Pool area steps where children use needs a good clean. Toilets are not cleaned as much as they should be. English breakfast very disappointing. No English bacon or sausages. Food on an evening varied and extensive. Restaurant very busy. A good location and a reasonable price. At the end of the day you pay for what you get.
This is the pool needing attention on the steps

New favourite place to stay! Rebooked already!
Another fantastic stay at the Jacaranda! Room was clean and a very decent size. Staff all super friendly and accomodated to all special requests. - massive shout out to the activity staff, mainly the two men that held the football and beach volleyball. They were so friendly and funny. Definitely made our experience so much better. - The heated pool was lovely as in the winter months it means you can still enjoy a swim. Only pointer would be that they could do with heating one of the top pools to, to spread people out at bit as sunbed hogging is an issue and the sun seems to hit the upper deck better later in the day. - Pool tables could use an update as ques and table cloth very old and tatty. Wish it was €1 not 2 but can't be too fussy. We just play a lot so ended up spending a fair bit on this. Had a fantastic time and will be returning again in September! Great location with lots around and beach only 5/10 mins walk. My new favourite place to stay!

Christmas stay
We had a lovely stay over the christmas period. The hotel was perfectly located to the main beach area and shops/restaurants. Rooms were big and overall friendly staff. The food is average but does the job. It can get repetitive after a couple of days. Lots of choice for breakfast. There are 6 swimming pools but only one was heated so for this time of year was a bit disappointing. People were reserving sun beds even though posters asked people not too. Overall this is a good hotel for those wanting all inclusive drinks and breakfast. Nice pool terraces and good sized bedrooms.

The hotel does not correspond to the level of 4 stars! Not good food, no variety. There is no iron in the room! The entertainment program is terrible! If you stay at the hotel for less than 3 nights, you cannot pay extra and get "all inclusive"! Overall, I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!
Response from Manager hotel on 29 Nov 2022
Dear Roman,We deeply regret that your experience at our establishment was not satisfactory and that you did not like services highly rated by the rest of our guests. Like 98% of the hotels in Spain the room does not have an iron, but we do have an ironing service on request. Our company policy like many other hotel chains is to ask for a minimum number of stays in order to have the all-inclusive service. We regret again that your experience was not satisfactory and we will continue to work to improve our facilities and services.Kind regardsBest Jacaranda

The hotel is quite old, rooms very basic but clean. Pool area nice, roof top pool nice as well, although bar could have been opened earlier (like the pool bar on the ground floor). Great selection of food. The only frustrating thing is there are signs that it is forbidden to 'hold' loungers by the pool, however no one executes that. One day we looked out of the balcony shortly after 6am and there were plenty of loungers already 'taken'. People leave towels and come later during the day or not at all. Staff should be taking those towels away and free up space for those who really want to use loungers.

Dear Lena, Thank you for taking the time to share your opinion with us. We are happy to know you had a good overall experience. With regard to the loungers by the pool, we would like to bring to your knowledge that we do remove the towels early in the morning. Unfortunately, during the day it is not always possible for us to identify which sunbeds have been reserved and are not being used, as the guests who took them might be in the water, having a drink at the pool bar, etc. This is why we have more than enough sunbeds for all our guests. We sincerely hope you were still able to enjoy our pools and to see you again very soon. Best regards,

Stayed here with daughter and son for five nights in two rooms. Rooms cleaned every day and beds made which doesn’t always happen in big hotels. Staff very friendly. Our rooms were on 8th floor with views to pool but also out to sea and so we could see sunsets. We were on B&B and generally out all day popping back early evening to change and then walked out to find dinner. Really handy for del Duque beach (10 mins walk) and lots of restaurants within 5-10 mins. Pool area was very clean and there is a separate pool on 5th floor which tends to be adults only. Breakfast has a good selection but can get busy. As we were eating and then going out it was ideal for us and breakfast served from 7.30 to 10.30.
