3rd visit to the Blue sea resorts in Puerto de la Cruz but 1st to Interpalace. Definitely the best of the 3 hotels. Good points, Clean everywhere, helpful friendly staffing team, good beds and mattresses (recommend paying extra for sea view), good location with excellent rooftop bar (drinks not included in AI but very reasonable and worth the cost, 10% off for hotel guests), daytime entertainers were great and worked really hard. Free bus to/from main resort plus use of amenities in other 2 hotels. Lots of nice bars, cafes and shops nearby. Not so good points, drinks awful except the beer and soft drinks. Local spirits horrible/cheap and cocktails sugary. I paid for all my drinks at local bars which didn’t bother me because it wasn’t a huge extra to be AI . Entertainment in the evening not great but we went out most nights or used the rooftop bar. Food, hotel really needs to address the temperature of the food as it’s often cold to lukewarm warm. Breakfast and lunch reasonable with choices but dinner very hit and miss, not so much choice on offer as there was on our last visit in 2022., most nights we ate out because it wasn’t great. Don’t understand all the comments about food prep or hygiene though as everything we had was probably over rather than undercooked? Overall our experience was very good, you get what you pay for here I think some reviews don’t reflect that It’s very reasonable priced. You can upgrade the drinks package now to branded spirits if you want and the price would still be very reasonable compared to other all inclusives on the island We didn’t do this because we liked going out. To summarise if you want a cheap break in the sun at a clean friendly hotel in a nice area this hotel fits the bill. We will come back for a 4th visit but maybe on a bed and breakfast basis
