Playa de las Americas hotel guide. Melia hotel in Playa de las Americas, Arona

"10/10. Perfect for couples, families and surfers! Recommend going for the sea view rooms as it’s away from the strip plus the views and sunset are lovely! "

"The food in the speciality restaurants was very good but the buffet for a 5 star hotel was not good. The quality of the speciality restaurants should of been offered thought out especially for the price of the stay"

"Breakfast and dinner could be a lot better. No theme food on an evening"

"Our 2 story duplex was really spacious for 4 of us . The living room is sectioned off slightly so great to use the sofa bed as another sleeping room . Had the breakfast one morning and choice and quality was good just a bit chaotic for us. Great pool area . You did need to go down fairly early to get sunbeds ( 9ish) . Everyone seemed to go down and reserve so we did too which I don’t normally like to do but if you can’t beat them join them! The resort is at the top of a steep hill but it’s an ok walk down to restaurants and bars etc and we used taxis back up . All in all a great stay . Our balcony was tiny though in comparison to the size of the apartment. Would not be able to sit 6 around a table and no sun loungers . Other terraces below us were huge "

"Spa was nice water a little to cold "

"Great apartment for family, kids enjoyed pool, ping pong and mini golf. Used it as a base to visit the island with a car."

"Excellent buffet breakfast with wide ranging choice including kids buffet. Staff lovely and friendly and good choice of amenities including table tennis tables, pools, fitness classes. Gym superb overlooking the ocean! "

"Great location. Very clean room. Staff very friendly. Food very beige and more 2/3* - as if the chef and his team have lost their enjoyment in cooking"

"Despite some of the negative reviews, it was a great stay. Staff were great, attentive and helpful. Food was fantastic as well as the evening entertainment. The only downside for me was all of the young people in groups at the beginning of my stay, doing balloons and made the hotel smell very green which I found very inappropriate as there were families there with young children so harder policing around that would’ve been better.
