HOVIMA La Pinta Beachfront Family Hotel

Nice kitchen but self catering not an option . Family oriented. Close to large selection of bars and restaurants. Slow lifts Good even entertainment . Buffet food good standard. Balconies not very private.

My husband , daughter (4yrold) and I have just come back from a week stay at La Pinta. The hotel is exactly as it describes itself as , a family resort. The hotel prides itself as a family resort and centers all its efforts to make the holiday special for your kids. I wasnt expecting 5 star facilities so i was pleased to see the hotel advertises exactly what they offer. The reception went above and beyond when i asked to leave a belated birthday message for my hubby. They decorated the room with baloons and lollys for my daughter and a bottle of bubbly for us. Cons: Rooms are not very sound proof so there is alot of noise from the corridors of footsteps children running up and down and so on Its the first hotel ive seen you have to pay for a safe in the bedroom. I think if they removed this payment the experience would be better, as making customers feel safe to leave their belongings indoors should be priorty. We were given choice to move 2 buffet dinners to al a carte. However this is the only aspect i feel is advertised wrong. The al acarte isnt really al a carte, its more of a set menu, with 2 choices for main course and starters and buffet dessert. I personally feel you should advertise it as a set menu restaurant. The location of the restaurant is lovely and so is the service. And also you dont expect a buffet dessert for a al a carte restaurant. We changed back to buffet after our first al a carte meal at the restaurant as we thought we had more choice at the buffet. PROS Location is perfect with beautiful views...try getting an apartment 2nd floor and up if you want a decent view. Apartments were spotless basic facilities included and the cleaners did a great job of cleaning each day. Note they dont clean your dishes All the staff were very friendly and accomadating. Reception staff were always smiling and on the last day when we needed a later check out due my daughter feeling ill they happily moved us in a beautiful room for her to rest. Finally the biggest asset of this hotel is their kids club team. They were amazing with the kids and remembered all the kids names. They were so engaging that my daughter wanted to go to the club each day. They have a kids disco each night which is repetitive with the song choice, but at the end of the week we are still singing the songs. It does get very loud at the disco so can be scary for some kids. The evening entertainment is okay..we didnt go every night but the magic show was nice.

This had to be one of the bestest hotels very friendly, helpful. There was so much to do for the kiddies and even my parents. It was so exciting the whole time away. I would definitely go back to this hotel again.

Very clean nice large rooms and staff are friendly and helpful great value and great location. We went half board and food choices was good and we had drinks which you paid at the end and was cheaper than I thought. They had entertainment on daily and every evening which gave people with small children and good break.

Nice location, good staff, good after dinner entertainment package for adults as well as kids, enjoyed it! Will visit again. Close to amenities and beach walks. Will visit again and recommended without any hesitation.

Spacious rooms ,great facilities ,seafront views, realy helpful staff. Plenty of bars restaurants shops close by ,3 pools 2 childrens either side of main ,which was slightley heated which was better than some of the freezing cold pools you come across.All in all great location ,clean ,helpful staff ,big rooms ,great views. Plenty to do out and around the hotel.

We stopped for a week in November and this is our 4th time at this hotel in the last 2 years! Faultless every time our 2 year old absolutely loves it here and were already booked again for June!! Always try and book an excellence room it's worth every penny

Great location, on sea front at Porto Colon, Adeje. Beautiful hotel recently renovated to a high standard. Reception staff terrific, glass of bubbly on arrival. Almost all rooms are sea facing and equipped with fridge, hob, kettle, microwave set up for self catering. Free wifi but small charge for safe £3 per night. Rooms, pool area and hotel in general spotlessly clean. Lovely pool area with plenty of good quality sun beds and parasols, hotel towels available for a returnable deposit.For a one week stay you can book the Ala Carte Restaurant twice, I recommend you do this as the service and food is quite good.Restaurant area is quite small for the size of the hotel and has a low roof, meaning when it is full of people the noise is deafening. The quality and choice of food let this hotel down. Again the serving display area is quite limited and often the trays were not changed over when empty. We booked half board and I am glad as we ended up eating out a couple of nights. The breakfasts were pretty poor as well. Toaster required 6 passes to toast bread. Coffee machine hopeless, watery bitter coffee.In summary, great location, cleanliness, pool, room, outlook and staff but restaurant and food quality poor.Would I recommend it to a friend. Yes, but be aware of the shortcomings of the restaurant.

Stayed 4 nights in an apartment at this hotel during October half term 2018. Modern and clean hotel, perfect location (2 minutes walk to the beach, many shops and bars nearby), excellent swimming pools, lots of activities for kids, good choice of food.Overall, 5 star!

We were a large family and on check in the hotel staff were really friendly and helpful. They ensured we got our evening meal as it was about to close. The hotel manager also took time to take around the whole hotel to make sure we knew everything we needed to know.The rooms were large and clean and were cleaned daily by friendly cleaners. The view was beautiful from our Excellence Sea View room.As we were a vegetarian group, the hotel manager and staff ensured we were served plenty of vegetarian options. They also gave us special treats on two days in the form of a mocktail and a two special desserts. They went out of their way to make us comfortable, something all members of our family appreciated and will cherish as part of our holiday memories.The entertainment was of good quality, particularly if you are going kids. They also had a kids club daily and access to the beach was easy. Definitely recommended, in particular with kids.

la pinta apartments were very spacious and cleaned every day by the hotel maids. very close and connected to beach via security gate. found food to be of high standard and varied.very pleased with choices at meals.we were in an excellence room 508 which was very spacious and had sunloungers and table and chairs on balcony, also suite of double sofa and two single chairs which were very comftable when sitting outside in the evenings.If i had to go back which i probably will i would very much recommend the La Pinta to anyone as a great experience holiday.the only tiny thing was the fridge in the room did not have small freezer for keeping ice cubes in for drinks,but this was only a small sacrifice to make as room and hotel were excellent.that is why i hve given max marks as holiday was very enjoyable.also plenty of sunloungers about poolside for everyone and also hotel pool towels.

We had a excellence room with sea view, could not fault it in any way. Food in the buffet was of very good standard but basic. The a la carte restaurant was absolutely amazing, the food was of such a high standard and the service was excellent. The head waiter Francisco was amazing!!!There was a beach club situated to the side of the hotel with quite loud music which could disturb guest. It wasn’t an issue for us as we enjoy the music.

Food was average plus lunch was a joke waiting for a table then your drinks arriving at end off lunch because under staffed. Front off house where a joke, there mistakes about not telling us information but never once said sorry
