For what we paid the hotel is outstanding, the Guy on reception is super friendly and very knowledgeable about the local area,, he can’t do enough for you. The hotel is really relaxed about bringing your own drink etc to the pool. The pool bar is superb and very reasonable cost wise. The location is fantastic, especially if you’re on a budget, very clean and the water in the swimming pool is immensely clean and warm in the bottom pool! Those wanting to cool off chose the top pool. We will definitely come back every year as this part of Tenerife is fantastic… thank you for a lovely stay

I got what I paid for. Wasn’t the best, but for the price was good enough for a few nights. However at night the bar under the hotel is very noisy until very late!

This apartment hotel was excellent. I do B&B and in my opinion the cleaning team are excellent. The desk staff were polite and helpful and available 24hrs per day. The hotel is 10 minutes easy walk the the beach and as a solo traveller I felt safe in the area. The apartment had a small kitchen area with crockery, cutlery, hob, microwave and sink. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend the place to anyone.

Central location
Basic rooms, comfortable beds, friendly staff. Good central location with walking distance to beach, bars and restaurants. I would definitely stay again, no noisy holiday makers it was quiet, we had a studio which had everything we needed. Decor a little dated but clean and tidy. Overall we had a lovely time and hope to stay again in the near future.

We had a fabulous stay after a horrendous start to our holiday( in different apartments) imight add. The staff at the Marola Portosin were very helpful they let us check-in early once we had explained our predicament with to the reception. Then let us upgrade once a one bed apartment became available and always had a smile on their faces and helped with everything. I could not complain about anything the sunbathing area and the pool bar were cheap for both drinks and snacks. Thank you Alison and Mark.
