Barceló Tenerife

Things to know
before you go

  1. This is a Tenerife resort with an optional all-inclusive package, not a default all-inclusive-only hotel.

  2. The strongest fit is travelers who want a polished pool resort beside the San Blas Environmental Reserve.

  3. It is better for nature, pools and quiet than for nightlife or a classic sand-beach vacation.

  4. Hidden tips

    Compare standard rooms with Royal Level if pool access, premium drinks and quieter service matter.

  5. Things guests wish they had known

    All-inclusive is available as a package/rate, but this is not a default wristband-only Caribbean-style resort.

  6. The setting is excellent for travelers who want pools, nature and quiet more than a town-center location.

  7. Royal Level can materially change the service and pool experience.

  8. Strengths from our research

    Seven official outdoor pools.

  9. Strong guest scores on Expedia and Booking.com.

  10. Excellent nature-reserve and activity setting.

  11. Other considerations from our research

    Not a classic beach-front all-inclusive experience.

  12. Some guests mention rooms showing age.

  13. Location is quieter and less walkable than resort-town hotels.
