Melia Jardines Del Teide

Mareike Janzen

My friend and I stayed at the Melia Jardines del Teide for a week in August. We had the best time! The location was spectacular, the views are amazing and you can walk to the beach. We booked all inclusive but we didn't upgrade to The Level, which didn't look at all necessary. Their pool was situated strangely in the middle of the hotel near to the main restaurant, and the main pool had much better vibes. We are in our 30s and like to have a drink or two but also equally enjoy chilling by the pool and reading. We LOVED the sport activities they offered! Kevin, Elisa, and one other guy who I unfortunately can't remember (who had some amazing energy!!!) were super engaging and fun, and easily coaxed us into the pool every day for aqua fitness, underwater running, underwater cycling, dancing, etc. We also did a yoga class one evening which was exactly what we needed that night! The pool bar staff were fantastic--Bea, Alberto, Nico and Jesus were always smiling and full of banter during their non-stop demanding work..and were happy to let me practice my Spanish with them each day. The staff at the lobby bar were also great..they even remembered our nightly cocktail order out of all those guests. The evening entertainment was varied and much better than you would expect for hotel entertainment. The food was GREAT! So often the food in a hotel buffet can taste really bland and it can get boring after a week. I can't remember the last time I stayed somewhere and was this blown away by the food. The selection is huge, and you won't be able to try everything in a week. I am vegetarian and I really appreciated all the different vegetables they cooked, different pasta dishes, and especially the veggie paella they made a few times! The desserts were amazing, and the breakfast options were also never-ending. I think I counted 8 ways that they would make eggs. Hats off to all the kitchen staff because they put in some serious effort. The room was also great..beds were super comfortable and I think we had 3 huge pillows each. Everything was really clean, and the housekeeping staff did an amazing job and were also extremely friendly. Everyone at the reception was also totally delightful. They organized us a rental car for a day and it was dropped off and picked up from the hotel. All in all, everyone at this hotel seems really happy to be working there and that is super important to me. The grounds are beautiful, and there are so many people working hard each morning to keep that place looking beautiful. It was without a doubt one of the best hotels I have stayed in and I will definitely be back! 10 out of 10!!

What an incredible holiday! This hotel is absolutely beautiful and the food is a solid 10/10. The entertainment each night varied and was highly engaging. The entertainment staff were pheromonal. Kevin and Elisa were present each day ensuring the guests were having a great time, greeting everyone with a smile. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the pool games and aqua gym each day. Johnathon at the bar was fantastic, ensuring my wine glass never emptied. Would 100% recommend this hotel

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The place itself is beautiful and everything is kept spotlessly clean. The staff are incredibly kind and friendly, always making us feel welcome. A special mention goes to Beatriz, Jesus, and Ariel, who went above and beyond to make sure we had a great holiday. Their warm service really stood out to us and made our stay even more enjoyable. There is only one small downside we noticed: the vegetarian food options could definitely be improved. Often, only the side dishes were vegetarian, and at the pool bar the snacks were limited to fruit. All the sandwiches and salads contained meat or fish, which was a little disappointing. It would be great to see a wider variety of vegetarian choices in the future. Overall, though, we truly enjoyed our time here and would gladly come back!

This was our second time spending our holiday at Meliá Jardines del Teide because we enjoyed it so much the first time. The main reason is the exceptionally friendly staff – everyone goes above and beyond to make sure you have a wonderful stay. Angelica and Ariell, for example, always welcomed us so warmly at mealtimes and did everything they could to make us feel at home. Thanks to them, we truly felt at home, which is why we decided to come back right after our first trip. It is honestly the most beautiful hotel we have ever stayed in. The rooms are modern, spotless, and well maintained, and the food is absolutely delicious. The grounds are stunning and feel like a lush garden, making it the perfect place to relax. We will definitely be back soon!

I was there in October last year, March and April this year and had a great time! I can't wait to come back again! Hygiene for me is very important and they got a 5/5 here! Loved as well the different shows in the evening, great musicians, please keep them going! Unfortunately missed the Capoeira show last time 😢 Food is excellent and in my humble opinion is the staff who makes the biggest effort to make you feel VERY welcome! In April, with the staff strike they even managed to operate to high standards during Easter and offer the best service possible, appreciate the efforts to minimise the impact on the guests! Very grateful to the staff from the restaurants: Isel, Oliver, Fran, Karelis Staff from the Bar: Karim, Hector, Miguel, Ramon, Angel You guys are the best! I am sure I may be missing more names... And the best fitness staff: Melissa! Loved the activities in the pool and she even managed to recruit me not being fit at all, and to come back to those activities, had a great time! One small thing I would recommend to improve for maintenance is the drainage in the bathrooms inside the rooms. Would 100% recommend staying there 🥂
