Amazing rooms and hotel. Dropped one star as the food is a bit hit and miss (either good or average) - but there is a restaurant down the road that serves higher quality food (for a price)
Staff are wonderful - the hotel itself is fantastic (and kid free - yay!) - the water villas where your “private” plunge pool that joins into the main “river” is truly beautiful.
I have to say that the designer of the hotel is award winning - spectacular decor.
Certainly will come again.

Great relaxed atmosphere. Cool concept with the river. Quietness and the birds chirping in the background. I think thats what one should expect from an adults only hotel :)
The cleanliness, however, could be better, hand towel had a yellow stain and the outside bedspreads and cushions were dirty. It can be attributed to the overall Spanish lifestlyle and attitude to life, I guess. :)
Breakfast is a 3,5 stars. Nothing really special and lack of choice. However, we stayed only 1 night, so was not so critical.

By far one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in. There is nothing I could possibly fault. From the overall comfort of the beds/room , breakfast options , the attention to detail with the architecture, the spa and not to mention staff going above and beyond for you. All the staff were amazing but particularly Stefan & Samir on arrival and the catering staff really made us feel comfortable and acknowledged my dietary requirements.
This is a resort you will not need to leave. You’re in your own bubble of luxury and doesn’t particularly feel like Tenerife. I booked it as it reminded me of Bali. I will for sure be back!
Thank you

In September 2023, we were lucky enough to spend nine fantastic nights at the Royal River Hotel in Tenerife. As soon as we arrived, we felt an atmosphere that combined professionalism with a warm, almost family-like cordiality. Every member of the team was incredibly attentive and dedicated.
The hotel itself is like a magical kingdom. Every room is a little paradise, full of loving details. The pool area is particularly impressive - a real design highlight. The wellness area is a wonderful, peaceful oasis where you can relax and unwind with fantastic massages.
In the morning, a breakfast buffet awaited us that left nothing to be desired. From hearty treats to sweet delicacies, plus fresh fruit, muesli, cheese and sausage - a dream start to the day.
The hotel team really stood out, especially with their friendly and dedicated manner. The hotel manager Daniela Tadialova deserves special praise. Her attention to detail and warm-hearted manner made the stay extra special.
For anyone looking for a very special place, this hotel is the perfect choice. We can hardly wait for our next visit!

Highly recommended without hesitation. Definitely worth the splurge. It's absolutely gorgeous, facilities and service are exceptional. Multiple pools, restaurants, good gym, spa free to use as desired, great buffet breakfast. Exceeded expectations at every turn. Quiet & relaxing. We cannot wait to go back. We didn't want to be close to the busy touristy parts of Tenerife so it was perfect but if that's your thing, there's a bus or a long walk. Hiking was easy to access without a car. I'd bring hiking boots next time as there was more opportunity for that than we'd realised although doing nothing was pretty great too.
