Unbelievable Tenerife Golf Getaway: Alua Atlantico Awaits! - A Review with a Side of Chaos

Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because I'm about to unleash my inner travel guru on the Alua Atlantico in Tenerife. Forget the polished brochures, people. I'm giving you the REAL deal, warts and all. And let me tell you, this place… it’s got stuff. Lots and lots of stuff. Let's dive in.

Accessibility – The Crucial First Impression (and the Biggest Fear)

Okay, so let's be upfront: I’m not a wheelchair user, but I’m hyper-aware of accessibility because, let's be honest, it's often overlooked and totally ruins a holiday for some. The website claims it's accessible. I saw elevators, ramps, and the like. I didn't personally test everything to its limits, BUT, from what I could see, they seemed to be trying. This is ALWAYS a HUGE plus. And I'm talking about real, thoughtful accessibility, not just slapping a ramp on and calling it a day. (Side note: a proper review would involve a disabled guest's experience, which I, unfortunately, do not have. But keep this in mind).

Cleanliness and Safety – Because Let's Face It, We're Living in a Post-COVID World (and My Anxiety is Real)

Alright, hand sanitizer stations WERE EVERYWHERE. Like, seriously, you couldn't swing a dead cat (metaphorically, of course) without bumping into one. They were clearly on it. And signs everywhere reminding you about distancing, masks, yada yada. Not my favorite, because, let's be honest, I like to breathe, but I get it. I saw people regularly disinfecting what seemed like everything. The rooms were supposedly sanitized between stays (and I’m assuming they meant it with the level of effort I saw elsewhere in the place.) I'm a bit of a germaphobe (don't judge!) so this was a massive win for me. And they even had individually wrapped food options and a cashless payment service, which really soothed my slightly irrational germ anxiety.

The Room - My Personal Sanctuary (or Bunker?)

Okay, let's be honest, the room is WHERE IT ALL HAPPENS. (You know, sleep, shower, complain about the lack of sun).

  • The Good: Air conditioning (essential!), Blackout curtains (bliss!), Free Wi-Fi (thank the gods!), a decent-sized bathroom with a bathtub (I will never not appreciate a bathtub!). They even had a little "extras" like complimentary tea and free bottled water, which made me feel slightly fancy. And, dare I say, it felt CLEAN. Properly clean.
  • The "Meh": The décor was… functional rather than inspiring. Think “beige with a hint of beige.” But hey, I'm not here to judge interior design. The bed was comfy enough, but maybe not the most luxurious. A minor niggle: there was a slightly odd smell in the hallway outside my room at one point, but I suspect that was due to someone's cooking, and not the hotel's fault.
  • The Absolute BEST thing? The balcony. A balcony that opened fully and had a lovely (albeit not breathtaking) view. This is where I’d go for my moment of peace, a place to sip my coffee and stare out at the sea (or the pool, depending on which side of hotel I was staying at – which did offer a pool view).

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking - Fueling the Holiday Beast

This is where things got interesting. And by interesting, I mean… varied.

  • Restaurants: There are several. A buffet, a la carte, a poolside bar, and a coffee shop. The buffet was… a buffet. Think varied options. There was always something I wanted. I’m a sucker for a good salad, and I'd always manage to find something that I was happy with. The Asian cuisine restaurant got some pretty stellar reviews (I didn't try it. Regrets.)
  • The Bar: The bar was… a bar. Drinks were decent. Happy hour was, well, happy. I'm sure their cocktails are fine, though I stuck with some basic soft drinks due to driving.
  • The Food Delivery (because I'm lazy): They had it! Perfect for those days when you just wanted to wallow in your room and eat.

Things to Do and Ways to Relax – The Question of "What Now?"

  • The Pools: Multiple pools. One with a view. One with a swim-up bar (score!). Plenty of sun loungers (crucial).
  • The Spa: Ooh, the spa! A spa/sauna? Steamroom? Body scrub? Yes, please! I don’t know what I was expecting, but the spa exceeded my expectations. It was a sanctuary. I booked myself a treatment (forget what – the massage! Yes, I remember now) and emerged feeling like a new woman. Definitely a highlight. Seriously. Book a massage. Just do it.
  • The Fitness Center: I, uh, saw it. It seemed to have equipment. (I may or may not have actually used it. Let's just say I was very busy relaxing in the spa. And by busy, I mean lying down.).
  • The "Other Stuff" They had everything, from a gym to car power charging stations.

Services and Conveniences – Because You Deserve to Be Pampered (Even if You Don't Realize It)

  • The Front Desk: 24/7. Super helpful, even when I kept asking the dumbest questions.
  • Housekeeping: Daily. Always appreciated.
  • Laundry: Available. Because, let’s face it, after a week of sun and fun, you're going to need it.
  • Concierge: I did not use it. (Note to self: next time, actually use the concierge. They probably know all the good stuff.)
  • Other Stuff: Currency exchange, doctor/nurse on call, and a gift/souvenir.

For the Kids – Keeping the Little Hooligans Occupied

I didn't have kids on my trip, but the hotel seemed incredibly family-friendly. They had kids facilities, babysitting, and all the things you'd expect.

Getting Around – Airport Transfer and Parking! (Let the Adventure Begin)

  • Airport Transfer: Available. (Hallelujah!)
  • Parking: Free on-site parking. A HUGE bonus!
  • Taxi Service: Present.

SEO Stuff (Let's Get This Ranked!)

  • Keywords: Tenerife, Golf Getaway, Alua Atlantico, Hotel Review, Accessible Hotel, Spa, Pool, Family Friendly, Free Wi-Fi, All-Inclusive, Beach Holiday, Canary Islands.
  • Location Focus: The area felt safe, clean, and well, touristy. The hotel is a short distance from the golf course (which is the whole point, right?) and the beach, and offers easy access to various attractions.

My Verdict (Brutally Honest, as Always)

Look, the Alua Atlantico isn’t perfect. But it's a solid choice for a Tenerife golf getaway or sunny escape. It's a place where you can kick back, relax, and recharge. The staff were generally friendly and helpful (minus a couple of minor communication blips, because perfection is boring), the facilities were good, and the spa was a total winner. It's clean, it's safe, and it ticks all the boxes for a stress-free holiday.

So, is it worth it?

Alua Atlantico Golf Tenerife: My Actual, Messy, Gloriously Human Trip

Day 1: Arrival and Utter Discombobulation

  • Morning (or, let's be honest, late morning): Finally! Landed in Tenerife South. Airport? Chaos. Took roughly an hour to find the right taxi, the driver seemed to be permanently stuck in first gear and chattered endlessly in Spanish. I understood maybe every fifth word. Gracias, amigo? I think I offered him a tip, I can't remember. Jet lag is a cruel mistress.
  • Mid-day: Arrived at Alua Atlantico. The lobby? Big, shiny, and smelled suspiciously of chlorine. Check-in was smoother than expected, which lulled me into a false sense of security. My room? Oh boy. Tiny. Balcony overlooking… the air conditioning units. Okay, realism check: this is not the Ritz.
  • Afternoon: Lunch. The buffet. Oh, the buffet. A glorious, sprawling, carb-laden testament to human greed. I piled my plate with… well, everything. Pasta, paella, questionable-looking seafood salad. I ate with the enthusiasm of a starving man. Then immediately regretted it. Food coma.
  • Evening: Stumbled out of my room, disoriented. Attempted to find the pool but got lost in a maze of identical corridors. Gave up and sat on my balcony. Watched the sun set, feeling a surprising pang of… loneliness? This solo travel thing is gonna be… interesting. Ordered a suspiciously strong gin and tonic from room service. This is gonna be good.

Day 2: The Golfing Debacle (and a Discovery)

  • Morning: Sigh. Okay, golf. I'd vowed to learn. Woke up with a foggy head. The golf course was gorgeous. The scenery: stunning. My swing? A disaster. I sliced, I hooked, I whiffed. I was basically a windmill of flailing limbs. One memorable shot sent the ball flying… into the ocean. At least the seagulls got a good laugh. After losing approximately 10 golf balls (I think), I called it quits. Humiliation level: Expert.
  • Mid-day: Drowning my sorrows with a massive burger and a pint of something dark at the clubhouse. The views here are truly something, though. Overlooking those greens. Just a stunning view, and it sort of makes me miss my dog, who would have loved to chase the squirrels here.
  • Afternoon: I ditched golf and decided to explore. Walked along the coast, found a small, hidden beach. The water was crystal clear. The sun, warm. The sand, perfect. Sat there for hours, just listening to the waves. It was so incredibly peaceful. Found a place to buy this amazing mango smoothie, I have never had anything so tasty. It felt like a small miracle. My mood instantly lifted. This is why I travel. Small moments of pure joy.
  • Evening: Dinner again in the chaotic buffet. This time, armed with a better strategy. Started with the salad bar (smart move!). Found some surprisingly good tapas (the chorizo was a revelation). Watched a cheesy hotel show - think bad singing and questionable dance moves. But hey, it was entertainment. And the sangria was flowing. (More of it).

Day 3: Diving Deep (and Finding My Inner Child)

  • Morning: Decided to try scuba diving. Because why not? I’ve been saying I will learn for years. Apparently, I’m still terrified of the ocean. But I did it and managed to get through the training session. Turns out, I'm actually pretty good underwater. Witnessed these incredible fish. Even saw a turtle. Surreal. Changed my perspective.
  • Mid-day: Back at the hotel, I found… something. The kids' pool! Okay, hear me out. I felt free. I wanted to be carefree. I am swimming with kids. I felt like a total idiot, but I didn't care. I built enormous castles of water, and splashed until I was exhausted. In a way, I was finally able to let go of everything, of all the stress.
  • Afternoon: Sunbathed. Read a book (finally, I had some peace and quiet). Sipped more mango smoothies. Just existing. It's amazing how restorative the simplest things can be.
  • Evening: Found a small Italian restaurant down the road. Had the BEST pasta I've ever eaten. Talked to the owner about his family. It was charming.

Day 4: More Golfing, More Humiliation

  • Morning: I hate this stupid golf course. I hate the sun. I hate my swing. I still went back to hit more balls. The same story repeats: I was a whirling dervish of bad form. I swear, I think I was being watched.
  • Mid-day: I just skipped lunch. I didn't want to be around anyone. I'm feeling so defeated, and I went back to the room and just lied down, feeling defeated.
  • Afternoon: Back to the beach. This time, I just went for a walk. I walked for hours, found a small cliff side and sat there listening to the waves.
  • Evening: I still can't believe I skipped dinner. I was so tired. So upset. So alone.

Day 5: Departure (and a Promise to Return)

  • Morning: Packed my bag. Said goodbye (sort of) to the balcony view. Checked out. The whole process was surprisingly easy.
  • Mid-day: The airport was still chaotic, but by this point, I was numb to the mayhem. Got on the plane.
  • Afternoon: As the plane took off, I looked out at the island below. The good, the bad, the ugly… it all coalesced into a memory. A messy, human memory. And you know what? I wouldn't trade it for anything. Maybe I'll even go back. Maybe I'll actually learn to golf. (Probably not). But yeah, Tenerife… You're alright.
  • Final thought: My skin is a bit red, my bank account is a little lighter and my spirit is a bit fuller. I came here seeking perfection, and I found the beautiful, messy mess of life.

Unbelievable Tenerife Golf Getaway: Alua Atlantico Awaits! – Your Burning Questions (and My Rants!) Answered

1. Okay, Okay, Tenerife Golf Getaway... Sounds Expensive. How Much Will This Actually Cost Me? (And Can I Afford It?)

Alright, let's get the money talk out of the way. Look, it *depends*. I'm gonna be brutally honest, budgeting is a massive pain in the butt for me. But, I've looked into it (reluctantly, I swear!), and the "package" deals you're likely looking at with Alua Atlantico can vary WILDLY. You're looking at flights (which, depending on where you're departing from, can be a killer—I once had to sell a kidney to fly to London... almost), the hotel (Alua Atlantico – decent, more on that), green fees (golf is NOT a cheap hobby, bless their hearts), and sometimes even transfers. Honestly? You can probably find something “affordable” if you're good with off-season travel. But if you have your heart set on peak season, be prepared to see tears (possibly financial ones). My advice? Shop around like your life depends on it. Compare package deals, but ALSO price things separately. Maybe you can find cheaper flights and then book the hotel directly (or vice versa). And factor in food and drinks *especially* if you're going to be drinking at the 19th hole. Trust me, that can add up FAST. I once lost… well, let's just say a significant amount of money, on a post-round Guinness bet. Don't be me.

2. Alua Atlantico? Is it... You Know... Nice? I've Stayed in Some Dumps in My Time...

Right, the hotel. Alua Atlantico. Look, it's not The Ritz. Let's be clear. But it's… good. It's a solid, reliable, "I'm on vacation and I'm not going to die here" kind of place. The rooms are decent enough, clean (mostly – I'm a bit of a germaphobe, and I survived!), though the decor is… well, it's decor. It's there. It exists. Don't expect the Four Seasons. Do expect a perfectly acceptable base of operations. The pools are usually quite nice, which is important. And the food... well, the buffet can be hit or miss. Some days it's fantastic, other days it leaves you wanting a bit more. My trick? Hit up the omelet station at breakfast. Always reliable. And the drinks? Stick to the local stuff. You won't be disappointed.

3. Golf Courses! Which Ones are Included? And Are They Any GOOD? Because I'm *Serious* About My Handicap. (Sort Of...)

Okay, golf. The REAL reason we're all here, right? (Or the main reason, after the sun and the sangria). The courses included in the packages *vary*. That's the short answer. You'll likely get some good ones, some so-so ones, and maybe, *possibly*, one that makes you question your life choices (and your swing). Be sure to check the fine print! As for *which* courses... I've played a few near Alua Atlantico. Amarilla Golf is usually in the mix, and it's decent. Nice views, pretty challenging. Then there's Golf del Sur (that I keep referring back to!), which is the main one. A real test, with those characteristic black volcanic sands. And let's not forget that gorgeous ocean view... you might even see a whale jump out the sea! Other courses, like the course at Costa Adeje, are beautiful, but usually involve extra fees. The important thing (and I'm serious here) is to book your tee times *in advance*. Don't be like me, showing up expecting to waltz on and being greeted with a "Full! Try somewhere, anywhere else!". Also, bring extra balls. You'll need them. Especially around the water features. Let's just say I’ve donated a fair few to the ocean…

4. Tell Me About This Golf Del Sur Golf Course. I've Heard Whispers...

Ah, Golf del Sur... Let me tell you about Golf del Sur. It's the heart and soul of the Tenerife golf experience, in my humble, highly biased opinion. It's tough. Like, *really* tough. But in a good way. In a "I'll hate myself, but I'll also come back tomorrow" kind of way. I'm thinking about writing a freaking love letter to this course right now. Okay, first things first: the wind. It's almost always windy. Like, *seriously* windy. Prepare to adjust your swing (and your ego) accordingly. I've seen drives balloon into oblivion because of a rogue gust. Then there's the layout... Some fairways are deceptively narrow. The greens are fast. And let's not forget the *unfathomable* number of bunkers. I swear, the course architect's favorite color must be "sand." But OH, the views! The black volcanic landscape is just… stunning. Jaw-droppingly stunning. And the views of the Atlantic? Forget it. You'll be tempted to stop playing and just take pictures. (Don't. Your score will suffer, and you'll regret it, as I have done several times.) I remember one time, I almost aced hole 18. *Almost*. The ball landed inches from the hole. I've peaked, I've done my best and I'll never get better than that... I spent the rest of the day riding that (tiny) wave of satisfaction. And the next day? Back to reality. Back to the bunkers. Back to Golf del Sur. And would I do it again? Absolutely.

5. What About the 19th Hole? Are There Good Post-Round Options? Because Let's Be Honest, That's Half the Fun.

The 19th hole! Ah, a sanctuary of solace, a haven of *debriefing* (mostly about how badly you played). Yes! There are plenty of options. Around Alua Atlantico, you'll find a good selection of bars and restaurants in the area. Sometimes, the hotel bar itself is a decent option, particularly for a quick pint or a celebratory (or commiserating) cocktail. The beers are cold; that's the main thing. But venture out! Explore the local pubs! Look for places offering tapas. Because after a round of golf, tapas and beer are practically a requirement. I can't stress this enough: pace yourself. Because you *will* be tempted to overdo it. Especially if your round went well (and even if it didn't). Don't, like, make the mistake of trying to drive back to the hotel. Get a taxi. Or better yet, walk. The fresh air will do you good. And it gives you more time to plan your next round.
