H10 Taburiente Playa, La Palma

Wonderful holiday

Great location....little village with shops, beach very close by,next to the sea and very close to airport. Lovely calm atmosphere. Booked deluxe room and it was super..... fabulous sea and airport view. Large shower, coffee maker,lounge,bathrobes and slippers. Well worth the price paid. Drinks all known brands and nice touch, wine served at your dining table.

Excellent... faultless... would recommend!

Just returned from a long weekend at this hotel. Everything was excellent! We booked a suite which was very spacious. (in the adjoining building which was not a problem). The bedlinen was excellent... beds too! The towels, bathrobes again excellent. The room was absolutely spotless as was the whole hotel. The service, in all areas, again excellent - staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool area was again spotless - choice of 3 pools! We felt some of the reviews were very unfair as regards the food: There was lots of choice - something for everyone. A carved joint each dinner, a selection of different fish, meats, a vegetarian section, and the salads were so fresh. Breakfast - there is a lovely lady who makes fresh omelettes to order, or fried, boiled. I would say if you want burger or chicken nuggets and chips every night .. then this is not the place for you! There were hot and cold plates! As the majority of guests were Spanish, we were delighted! There is a bar with live music (not disco!), singer, guitarist etc... which was perfect. The drinks are all branded, and once again, the staff and service were excellent. Our special thanks go to "Pedro" who was "muy amable".. he worked extremely hard (as I must say did all the staff), at breakfast, dinner and then in the evening in the bar! We were extremely happy with our choice... yes, the resort it is quiet and very welcoming, and may not be for everyone, but it was for us... and we would recommend and will return. Muchisimas gracias!!

Amazing staff, beautiful island

I feel like some of these reviews are a little unfair. This hotel is rated a 4 star. Yes its tired and a little dated in areas but it really is one of those you get what you pay for situations. We took our 3 year old and had a lovely room with an actual, proper third bed for her. It was spacious and had a great sized balcony with amazing ocean views. The food is just standard buffet food. We just had 3 nights half board after getting a really cheap deal with jet2. There is an omelette and egg station for breakfast with all the usual bits. We had lunch rather than dinner which had a selection of different bits, nothing to complain about. Drinks werent too expensive and there are a few restaurants/ bars in walking distance and some more if you get a taxi into Santa Cruz. Its a lovely walk there during the day. The hotel staff are all absolutely wonderful and so helpful. There is a gorgeous ice cream shop that also sell amazing cakes and tea/coffee/ beer near the beach and theres a gorgeous Italian called LOsteria very close to the hotel. It is a quiet island but very beautiful and worth it for a few nights. I would recommend this hotel and would stay again if I were to come back.

A Truly Authentic and Wonderful Stay at H10 Taburiente Playa

A Truly Authentic and Wonderful Stay at H10 Taburiente Playa From the moment we arrived for our 14-night holiday, we felt a sense of calm and genuine cultural immersion at the H10 Taburiente Playa. As a UK family, we instantly appreciated being in the minority, surrounded by Spanish guests from the mainland and other Canary Islands. This created a truly authentic atmosphere that allowed us to feel like we were truly experiencing another culture, not just another tourist resort. The hotel served as a fantastic base camp for our young family to explore the stunning island of La Palma with our hire car. The staff's dedication and warmth were a consistent highlight of our trip. They are all incredibly hard-working, yet they always served with a smile, and nothing was ever too much trouble. We were particularly grateful for the exceptional service from Juan, Pedro, Daniel, David, and Yessica, who consistently went the extra mile to make our stay pleasant and memorable. Mealtime was a delight, with the delicious food and a wide variety of options. Even our picky small children were soon trying something new and delicious dailya testament to the quality and appeal of the menu. The hotel also kept us and the kids entertained with regular daytime activities, including pool foam parties and inflatable slides, which were a fun and welcome touch. Beyond the hotel, we explored some of the island's most beautiful spots. We were captivated by the breathtaking capital, Santa Cruz, and the amazing views from Mirador el Time. A day trip to the sea pools at Charco Azul was fabulous, and we found the facility at Volcán San Antonio to be an incredible way to learn about the island's volcanic history. A special and unexpected highlight for our football-mad son was the II TORNEO U19 BONITA Cantepro tournament. It was a fantastic experience to watch some amazing football and to have many of the players staying at our hotel. In all, we absolutely loved our holiday. We're already planning our return and now completely understand why La Palma is affectionately known as "Isla Bonita."
