The Canary Island's got Spain's highest peak at Mount Teide, volcanic lunar landscapes, whale watching off the coast, and historic La Laguna (UNESCO site). Los Gigantes cliffs drop dramatically into ocean, and visit the Anaga Mountains for hiking through laurel forests. Visit the beaches and resorts, but the island's geological diversity surprises people.

The apartments in the North and South were both clean and well kept. The breakfasts were good. Our room location in the North was a major problem. Our room was 415 which sounds good, but we had to take the elevator to the 4th floor and walk 49 stairs one way to our room. As we are in our 70's and we were vacationing in Europe for 6 weeks we had a large suitcase and carryons also. With no help on the stairs with our suitcases it was difficult to get to and from the room. We discussed this with the receptionist and we could not change as the hotel was full. I feel that we should never have been given this room to start with. The staff was excellent in both apartments both North and South.
