Bahia del Duque

Great pools, plenty of sunbeds and towels. It was nice to have complimentary water in the room and water dispensers around the grounds too. The grounds and location were amazing. The staff cannot be faulted , especially at breakfast and around the pools where they were always on hand to help with umbrellas or supplying extra sunbeds. Can't fault anything, it was a wonderful experience.

Fantastisk trädgård och underbara pooler.

Without doubt the best Hotel in Tenerife by a mile. The staff are friendly and nothing is an issue no matter what. The food options are great and the gardens spectacular. Different pools to choose from. Night entertainment is fun, location to shops and beach are perfect.

The property and staff were all 5 ⭐️. The choice of restaurants, spa, live entertainment (included), beach, shopping, the pools, AND an observatory on the grounds make this an excellent choice for couples, families with young children or teenagers, and “golden years” travelers. Highly recommended!

Amenities were great. Lots of restaurants and swimming pools

Review for Bahia del Duque Hotel We’ve just returned from another brilliant week at Bahia del Duque with my partner and our ten-year-old daughter. This place never fails to impress. Our first visit was back in 2016, with a group of five, including my stepson and stepdaughter. Even then, it stood out, but somehow it’s got even better. From the moment you step through the doors, you sense there’s something special about this place. It’s not just about the luxury—it’s the atmosphere, the attention to detail, and, most importantly, the people. The staff here are fantastic. They care about what they do, from the room service team to housekeeping and the management. You can see it in every smile, every greeting, every little extra touch. The traditional Canarian dress they wear adds a unique charm, giving the place a real sense of character. The food is superb. Each restaurant offers a different experience, but Kensei is the standout if you’re after a fine dining experience. It’s not just about the food, which is delicious, by the way; it’s the whole experience—thoughtfully crafted dishes that look as good as they taste. The spa is another gem. Two 90-minute massages, and you’re a new person—totally relaxed, completely rejuvenated. The atmosphere there is so calming, just what you need to unwind. And if you’re up for it, there’s always Padel—great fun and a nice way to keep active. This is a very special place, and worth every penny.

Absolutely fabulous hotel. Great kids club, lovely heated pools, fab rooms and staff were amazing. We can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful hotel. Large, comfortable rooms and bathrooms, friendly staff, amazing salt water pools, beautiful gardens. I travel with a service dog, and had no issues. Lots of dining options. El Duque beach is clear water, safe to swim. Simply perfect overall.

We were initially given a room near noisy renovations having requested a quiet room. However this was quickly resolved. The hotel consists of a series of buildings descending a hill and overlooking the sea. The grounds are immaculate, beautiful and secure. It has a good choice of excellent restaurants. It is well away from the noisier resorts. It is clearly a high quality hotel.

Magnificent hotel with polite caring staff. Buggies were brilliant. Truly an amazing experience

The Bahía is quite a site! It’s huge and I would certainly suggest not going if you have mobility problems, although they run buggy shuttles on demand. It reminded me of Disney Land to be honest. We found it quite overwhelming on arrival. We found the hotel ok. The room was on the small side, but was spotlessly clean, and the sea view was at best a partial sea view. Still, not bad. There were multiple swimming pools and the grounds are lovely. Also, universally excellent staff! Always helpful and seemingly cheerful! They must be exhausted at the end of the day because Bahía seems to attract a lot of very ‘entitled’ types! Our main issue was with the dining options. A really good quality buffet would have been preferable for us. Instead, there are series of a la carte restaurants, which are ok, but it’s a bit much having to make sure you’ve booked in to be able to eat. We saw several people turned away. The Italian Trattoria was very good, Alesios was nice, and Upalupa improved over our 3 visits. But it was a pain to organise. Worse though was the breakfast arrangement. This was a Buffett, but never a pleasant experience. It was always heaving and felt chaotic and just not relaxing. The way the buffet was laid out didn’t to my mind work with the numbers of people trying to get to them. We did the bare minimum and left as quickly as we could. Usually queues to get in as well. We probably wouldn’t stay there again.

Hébergement très bien situé, personnel très à l’écoute, gentil et très à l’écoute. Petits bémols: pas de plage privé et en 10 jours nous n’avons pas réussi à prendre des transats, trop de monde; nous avons dû acheter des parasols et serviettes de bain pour nous installer sur la plage publique. Quant aux transats des piscines c’est la course à la dépose serviette pour avoir une place. Le ménage dans les chambres n’est pas toujours bien fait. En revanche, les parties communes sont très propres. Nous avons apprécié notre séjour au Bahía del duque.

The biggest disappointment here was the room, 707, small and basic, typical of a 3 star offering. Certainly not how Expedia described it. Requested a change, called reception and was told the hotel was full and what did I expect them to do. Received an email at 3pm the next day saying another room was available and would be reserved until 5pm. I didn’t check my emails until the following morning as I was on holiday so no change was made. No message on the room phone, no note, no text. Very much a half hearted attempt to tick box the situation. Not the standard I normally receive in 5* hotels. Housekeeping was hit and miss, glasses just wiped, not changed. Breakfast was great as we went in early so we received good service. Had to join in the ‘towels on sunbeds before breakfast’ game which I haven’t had to for years. General staff around the property were polite and friendly. Overall the property is in good condition. My top tips would be to take good quality earplugs as the rooms are not soundproofed and book the most expensive room you can find as the standard rooms are too basic

The hotel is tired and whilst most of the staff, especially the breakfast staff were excellent the others lacked what is expected of them at a supposedly 5 star hotel. Very poor cleaning and attention to any kind of detail, failure to follow up on delivering items to room, removal of personal items from room without permission, poor quality and badly cooked and flavourless food are only a few things that came to mind with the worst issues being shutting restaurants when guests were mid meal and failing to clean eg the pool area leaving guests to clean up soiled nappies left by inconsiderate guests by the poolside with other rubbish despite there being rubbish bins only 10 ft away! We will not be returning.

Bahia was excellent in all respects. If I have to give one feedback to the hotel that would be about its cats. I didn’t like the idea of freely roaming cats esp in dining areas and in the breakfast area. It doesn’t bode well esp as the rest of hotel is so hygienic.

Beautiful hotel. We were upgraded to a junior suite . Great location walking distance to local restaurants. Immaculately clean. Staff exceptional, from the welcome by reception ( Patrick ) to all other staff. A little dated in areas eg having to carry a safe key but all adds to the old school charm

Bahia del Duque is a lovely resort , myself and my daughter went for two weeks and were stressed from work /uni and came out smiling and just sad our holiday came to an end. All the staff is very nice and friendly and we felt secure and looked after . the boys/men in the bar and in the restaurant they are young positive and happy to get you anything you need. Club house and reception were very professional, responded in timely manner and very friendly. I have to say a big thank you to Jacobo , the hotel manager who helped us so much when my daughter almost fainted from heat exhaustion and a worrying side pain. He helped us go up in the room , called the doctor waited with us until all was fine he translated when the doctor came and even gave us his number so we can call him at any time in case of any emergency. Myself and my daughter were so grateful for all that he did!! In actual fact any time we wanted anything by a miracle he was just there resolving in an instant whatever we needed. I have to also thank the the staff tending the swimming pools and the bar team as they were always attentive and ensuring we have everything we needed . Room cleaning was spotless and you notice the attention to details. It was no pressure on when you make the room available for cleaning . Thank you to all the team at Bahia del Duque !!!

Great Breakfast, great restaurant selection. Room very clean.

Vackert beläget i en stor subtropisk park och med direktaccess till havet. Mycket trevlig personal med utmärkt service! Standarden på rummen något daterad, skulle behöva en uppfräschning. Städningen ojämn, ibland lite slarvig med flera missar, andra dagar utmärkt. Flera restauranger på området, alla med överraskande bra mat, dock ganska dyr. Återvänder gärna till detta ställe!

Beautiful setting and overall a relaxing stay at Bahía del Duque. The pools are stunning, the staff incredibly friendly, and the resort grounds are lovely. However, the kids club could definitely be improved — it wasn’t very engaging — and the cleanliness of the rooms wasn’t quite up to 5-star standard. While the charm is there, the hotel is starting to show its age and could benefit from a renovation soon. Still, a solid option for a sunny escape in Tenerife.

Great location on the beach. Good selection of restaurants and good evening entertainment. Usual problem with sunbeds with the vast majority reserved by over enthusiastic people by 8.00am. Breakfast room far too busy, like a rugby scrum getting food. Need more than one breakfast restaurant. 5 star and people still thieving the food to take away! No waiter service around pool. Room was average, single beds a pain and garden view was blocked by a tree.

What an amazing resort, the gardens are well tendered and landscaped, the staff are warm, friendly and professional, the location is excellent and the rooms are comfortable and stylish. I’ve been coming here for many years and it never fails to impress. The best hotel in Spain in my opinion. A must visit when in Tenerife! Special thanks to Balasz, Irene, Victoria, Daniel, Lucia and Patrick at the Casas Ducales for being so fabulous and helpful as always. Thank you again for a great holiday. Jason

Quiet and beautiful. Staff the absolute best. Very relaxing. Great facilities. Amazing room above reception

Beautiful hotel. Large, comfortable rooms and bathrooms, friendly staff, amazing salt water pools, beautiful gardens. I travel with a service dog, and had no issues. Lots of dining options. El Duque beach is clear water, safe to swim. Simply perfect overall.

Paid for garden view, got view of back of a building. Offered to move us twice but rooms weren’t really better. Construction adjacent to our room all day. Great staff and food, facilities also good but far too many scattered buildings which end up ruining a lot of views etc. Management were poor in their response. Far better hotels in the same price range.

Beautiful hotel, beautiful amenities, but the room wasn’t good

Ein wirklich schönes Hotel. Zimmer sind offenbar sehr unterschiedlich, auch was die Größe angeht. Wir hatten offenbar ein kleines. Das Haus hat eher einen Ressortcharakter. Viele Familien. Die Restaurants sind ok. Der Service ist aufmerksam.

The staff go above and beyond to make your stay a memorable one. The Best hotel in the canary islands by a country mile. I’ve visited the hotel time and time again and it never fails to impress. It’s a home away from home. A huge thank you to Zaira, Victoria, Irene, Eli and Daniel in Casas Ducales. Excellent service as always, thank you. We look forward to seeing you all again in May. Thanks again, Jason

Absolutely perfect stay at Bahia del Duque. The room was beautiful, the attentive service amazing and the food was incredible. You can not beat the location.

Our 2nd stay at Bahia del Duque. Still a good hotel in a picturesque setting and enjoyable, particularly La Brasserie and Sua restaurants, but noticed fewer staff around - took longer to be served. Enjoyed our stay

The staff were very attentive and the service was excellent. The architecture was amazing and provided plenty of options for relaxing, dining, and swimming. Overall the service was excellent.

The best staff ever couldnt do enough for us with a beautiful smile

Feels like such a family run hotel, literally all staff are helpful and courteous. Great location, good facilities and just all round lovely hotel

Wonderful stay for our 30th wedding anniversary. All The staff were great, always met you with a smile and eager to help with whatever you needed. I requested a room change to one that was closer to the central/ pool area and they were able to accommodate that by the next morning. They also were very helpful getting us a reservation on the terrace of La Trattoria ( for our anniversary) even though we asked only the day before. Spent 8 nights. All aspects of this stay were definitely 5 star. Definitely recommend this hotel

The hotel location is outstanding in the resort, and the grounds are beautiful and a good balance of sun and shade. The hotel itself rightly earns it's high reputation and we could not fault the quality of accommodation, food or service the entire 9 days we stayed. If we return to the resort, it will be our preferred hotel to return to.

Meget stort hotel … men ikke for stor på den gode måde. Venligt personale overalt. Fantastisk morgen mads restaurant/buffet. Smuk udsigt til havet. Gå afstand til Adeje - hyggelig by. Fornuftige priser. Vi kommer igen næste år.

Without doubt the best Hotel in Tenerife by a mile. The staff are friendly and nothing is an issue no matter what. The food options are great and the gardens spectacular. Different pools to choose from. Night entertainment is fun, location to shops and beach are perfect.

Wonderful hotel right on the nicest beach in Southern Tenerife. Beautiful pools, very attentive staff who were very polite and friendly and the hotel is located in the nicest part of Adeje with lots of quality restaurants and shops within easy walking distance along the beautiful sea promenade. Highly recommend a stay here.

Really nice hotel. Staff amazing and location superb. You can walk out onto the beach. Would definitely recommend the hotel but make sure you have some trousers with you as gents can’t eat at the restaurants without them. Very nice stay and would definitely go again.

This is a beautiful hotel, fabulous gardens immaculately looked after. Friendly helpful staff. Excellent breakfasts and good choice of dining options. Good location with access to beach

We cannot express enough the absolute wonderful time we had. The hotel is more than we imagined and such a perfect location to shops, beach, restaurants We loved our stay and would come back again and again..

The location is sublime, close to a little bay with a small beach and the sea lapping a vulcanic shore. Staff were very polite and helpful. Definitely going back.

Beautiful hotel. Very friendly helpful staff.Excellent choice of dining and fantastic breakfasts

Great Breakfast, great restaurant selection. Room very clean.

Array of restaurants is impressive. The beds are comfortable and the food was very good. The wines are a bit overpriced but the staff were welcoming and attentive

Absolutamente todo, especialmente todo el personal, no saben ya que hacer para que estés como en casa. Un 10 para todos ellos. La gastronomía espectacular y el mejor desayuno que probamos nunca.

Lovely hotel, great buffet breakfast. Safe and calm.
