We arrived last week for a 5 night break, first time using this hotel, we were pleasantly pleased with the buildings and layout of hotel, we stayed in a 1 bed apartment i have to say it was quite dated, and we had tiny bugs in the kitchen and bathroom, safe to say we never once cooked in there, coffee in the morning that was it, they hotel was very clean apart from that, we never seen any cockroaches in the rooms, the maid was in everyday, the pool areas were busy, we ended up at the top pool everyday but its not very deep, food was really good something different on every day, the beer and wine was also good my husband was happy as he was getting bottled beer at dinner time.lunch time at the snackbar waant the best nit much to choose from, overall we had a nice time and considering returning next year
Came to the GF Isabel for 10 nights as a couple. Its definitely a family hotel, but we got a good deal. All staff were friendly and the hotel was clean. We were in an apartment on the 4th floor which suited us. Apartment had everything we needed. Air-conditioning was good in the living area, but not as strang in the bedroom. The main problem we had was if you plugged something in, you had to leave the light on!! So we couldn't plug phones in over night next to the bed. Fortunately we brought an extension plug so charges everything overnight in thr living area with the light on.
Cleaners came in every day but mainly made the beds and cleaned the bathroom.... you choose if and when you had clean sheets/towels.
We spend most of out time at the smaller back pool as it was quiet (please get rid of the fake grass, it got everywhere and was very hot!!!). The main pool had loud music, and different activities throughout the day which we arnt a fan of. We came Half-board.... breakfast is definitely the best selection of food. We tried a couple of lunch times and 1 evening meal ( you can switch which meal you want on the day)
Gave it average because the rooms are dated, I was constantly washing my feet so don't think it was mopped often, and the charging issues.
Haven't been to Tenerife in over 25 years, I forgot how hilly it was!! Chose Costa Adeje with it being quieter, but it has definitely changed over the years. We found some lovely restaurants, but alot of the front now feels abit like Benidorm!!!
GF Isabel was, unfortunately, a disappointment for me as a coeliac traveller. Although the hotel claims to understand allergies, the reality is that their knowledge and practices feel very limited. I had issues with the buffet from breakfast through dinner, experiencing stomach troubles after multiple meals. By the end of my stay, I avoided lunch and dinner entirely and only drank tea at breakfast because I no longer felt safe eating there.The buffet labelling and hygiene standards need serious improvement. For example, mixing fried eggs and pancakes on the same tray without clearly labelling this cross‑contamination risk is unacceptable. If the hotel wishes to advertise that they cater for allergies, they need to do it properly — or remove the claim from their website.Ordering gluten‑free meals was also frustrating. Even when I informed staff ahead of time, I often sat waiting for more than 20 minutes at dinner with nothing arriving. The only reliably safe items I had were a couple of gluten‑free pizzas and some fries on the final night.That said, the restaurant waiting staff and reception team were excellent — friendly, helpful, and always polite. They were the highlight of the stay.Other notes:Cleanliness of the plastic glasses needs attention.All‑inclusive drinks are varied and generous.The back pool is the best spot for relaxing, with plenty of loungers.Evening entertainment was hit‑and‑miss; the mini disco was more enjoyable than the main shows.The location is close to shops and the beach, though expect a slope.Smoking is allowed in the upstairs seating and opposite the stage, which can be unpleasant if you’re sensitive to smoke.The onsite shop and mini market are great for small items and trinkets.Would I return? For the first time in years, my answer is no. As a coeliac guest, I didn’t feel safe or properly accommodated, and that’s a deal‑breaker.
Great week at the GF Isabel. We were all inclusive for the week.
The hotel itself was lovely, nice for it to look like a little village, with bungalows, villas and apartments too instead of just one large hotel.
Pool was great, there are 3 in total, one just for kids but both main pools had a bar available too. Snacks at lunch were also great, burgers, hot dogs, chips, salad, fruit etc. The pool entertainment was good to, music played all day.
All staff were friendly and helpful, cleaner came in each day and refresh towels etc. The place itself was very clean too.
Food in the evening was okay, we did eat out 3 nights as it did become quite repetitive what was available, however it was nice.
Evening entertainment was hit and miss, with some night finishing at 10pm, the all inclusive bar was bizzare, it was all table service, Which was nice but on occasions they were very busy we had to wait ages to get a drink. In the end we did go to the bar and order directly with them.
Room itself was nice, clean, large wardrobe and balcony. Air con in lounge area and bedroom was good, black out blinds were amazing! The only downside for the rooms, was not enough sockets near the mirrors to do hair etc, however we did take a extension lead which proved most helpful,
Overall the holiday was great, food was good, weather was fantastic and staff fantastic.
I would return to this hotel again, great holiday .
A very charming hotel that is made up of a hotel building and a large number of bungalows, reminiscent of a Canarian village with its alleys and small squares. It is not luxurious, but it is very warm and pleasant to stay. The staff is extremely friendly and helpfull. The bungalows are spacious, have a separate bedroom and a small kitchen equipped with everything you need. The hotel is specially adapted for families with children... I have never seen so many children in any hotel, which is commendable. The food is varied with lots of vegetables and fruits, cheeses, meat and fish, as well as a variety of cakes, cookies, ice cream... Everyone can find what suits them. The hotel is clean and well maintained, both the accommodation facilities and the entire hotel complex. The location is excellent...literally everything you need is within a few minutes' walk. We had a great vacation and we are really delighted. Thank you for everything, we will definitely choose this hotel again for a holiday. All sincere recommendations.
