Cons — Iberostar Selection Anthelia
Some rooms and decor can feel dated compared with newer five-star Tenerife resorts.
This is a large, family-friendly resort, so it may not suit travelers seeking an adults-only or boutique atmosphere.
Several specialty restaurants are not included in all board types, so inclusions can be confusing without checking the booked plan.
The beach is convenient and swimmable, but the resort experience is stronger than the beach itself for travelers seeking a remote, pristine shoreline.
Cons — Iberostar Selection Playa de Palma
All-inclusive is not universal
Busy urban beach context
Spa costs extra
Pool inventory needs manual reconciliation
