HOVIMA Santa María

Santa Maria is in a perfect location for us. The rooms are clean and comfortable, dated but that’s not a concern. The views are stunning and if in the right part of the complex the view of the sun set is amazing. Food is excellent , themed nights and outside dining are a plus for variety. Always plenty of choices. Staff could not be more accommodating or friendly, nothing is ever too much . Sunbeds and umbrellas are plentiful and as our last trip was in December I was not expecting the pool to be as warm as it was, which was another added bonus. Also very nicely decorated fir Christmas

The location - brilliant! Views - phenomenal! Breakfast - great selection of hot and cold options. Overall lovely and clean. Helpful staff. Within walking distance of the beach. Spectacular views of mount Tiede and the sea from the hotel restaurant and rooms. Nice sized room with black out curtains. Easy to get to and reception helpfully ordered us a taxi to the airport.

Sound proofing - could hear outside noise (live music etc) and thin walls inside as well. Worth noting: you have to pay per day to use the safe. You have to pay a deposit at reception to use the iron (it is refunded though).

Delicious breakfast and dinner, several options. The staff were very friendly, reception always helpful. Parking available on the property for an additional fee. Very nice view on Teide. The location is nice, many shops and restaurants nearby, good beaches.

It was very hot in the room as there was no proper air conditioner and our room was on the sunny side. The rooms are a bit outdated, need renovation.

Location was in the middle of restaurants bars and shops,the room was very good for a studio and the restaurant was excellent plenty to choose from at all meals a bonus cold buffet was excellent

There was only one toaster and it was very slow so it was just your luck it could take 15 minutes to get your toastour

We went half board and found the food to be really nice and a huge choice. Beds really comfortable. Flyn and Flanagan irish bar reasonably priced and clare the compare is lovely. Had a problem with the first apt we went in but they moved us straight away to a larger studio. Apt was clean but could do with updating.

No air con in the rooms and the fan that was in there wasn't brilliant so it was red hot and made for a broken night's sleep.

A great and lovely personnel, who were always ready to help us. Delicious food and great location, because shop, restaurants and beaches are within 1-5 minutes walk.

The Wi-Fi does not work properly, but if you travel with family, you should not take care about internet so much, right. :-) But it could be quite unpleasant for someone who travels because of business and needs a good internet connection.

The variety of offered breakfast and dinner was just incredible. Each night there was either program or grill or others. The personal of the hotel were very helpful and pleasant eventhough some of them spoke only Spanish. The location was very nice as well.

The room was quite small, but sufficient for us, but it didnt have an air conditioning and that was problematic already in the beginning of June.

It's a good all rounder of a 3 star hotel. Really clean and the staff are great. Good food, not the best choices but always found something and was hot, this is 3 star and not 4 or 5 star so good food for 3 star though

Rooms were too hot, fans were.given but not very good (better than no fan of course)

Very friendly staff, feel like at home!!!! Very good food. All the drinks in All Inclusive from well-known manufacturers. Thanks a lot to Mary (animation) Carlos, Maria and all all staff. It’s was very crazy vacation. We will come back soon!!!!
