Pros:

Schöne Poollandschaft, nettes Personal.

Cons:

Der Außenbereich ist in die Jahre gekommen und könnte einen frischen Anstrich vertragen. Rauchen auf dem eigenen Balkon ist nicht gestattet.

Heerlijk!
Pros:

Mooie ligging. Veel zwembaden.

Cons:

Wel ver van dorpjes en eetgelegenheden. Dus je bent aangewezen op hun restaurant(s) als je niet in de avond min 30 min wil rijden.

Fantastic hotel
Pros:

I keep returning to Esencia and it never ever disappoints. There isn’t one single thing I can say against this hotel. The service, the staff who can’t do enough for you, the beautiful room, pools and gardens and the amazing food and restaurant staff who were so kind and did everything to make sure my experience was special. Even when I was struggling with a suitcase, a member of staff asked if Inwould like a lift up the hill which was appreciated. It is one of my favourite places to visit and I will continue booking my holiday at Esencia.thankbyou for a wonderful holiday.

Fantastic can’t recommend enough!
Pros:

A fantastic resort and accommodation. The hotel complex caters for everything you need and the staff and team are exceptional for all ages. Plenty to do for adults and kids through the day and night. I cannot recommend highly enough and like a lot of guests I spoke to I expect we will likely visit again as many were repeat visitors!

Great family holiday.
Pros:

We had a lovely week holiday here, this is our second time visiting which is rare for us to return to the same place twice but it has everything we needed, the hotel is lovely and clean, there is a good variety of food and the pools and views are fantastic.
The animation / kids club team is great. Plenty of activities during the day and into the evening for adults and children, thank you to Ratz and the animation team for always being brilliant with the family. We have booked to return again in December ☺️

Wohlfühl-Oase , ganz wundervoll zum entspannen und genießen.
Pros:

Weitläufige, sehr gepflegte Anlage. Keine weiteren Hotels in der näheren Umgebung, stattdessen viele einzelne hochgelegene Gebäude mit schönem Blick auf das Meer. Ich habe noch nie eine Anlage mit einer so großen Pool-Landschaft gesehen, einige Pools waren sogar beheizt. Wirklich beeindruckend ist das überaus große Platzangebot und die Ruhe im Esencia Bereich. Es gibt immer genug Liegen an dem 3 Pools, auch um die Liegen herum viel Platz.
Das Restaurant im Esencia Bereich ist klein und fein, tolles Buffet-Essen und Top Personal und eine sehr schön entspannte Atmosphäre.

Cons:

Wenn man gern im Meer schwimmt, gibt es leider nicht direkt am Hotel einen Zugang ins Wasser. Etwas nördlich vom Hotel befindet sich aber ein kleiner Strand mit einer sehr schönen Badestelle, die fussläufig erreichbar ist.

Great holiday, great value for money!
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at La Palma Princess and would highly recommend it. The hotel was exceptionally clean throughout, with the rooms, pools, and communal areas all very well maintained. The food quality was excellent, with plenty of variety at every meal and something for everyone to enjoy.

The facilities were easy to use and well laid out, making the whole experience relaxing and stress-free. There was always plenty to do during the day and evening, and the animation team really made the holiday extra special.

A special mention goes to Alex, who brought great energy and fun to the activities every day. He was friendly, engaging, and did an amazing job coordinating everything and making guests feel involved and entertained.

Overall, a wonderful holiday experience and we would definitely return.
