Hotel Acuario - Puerto de la Cruz (Tenerife)

2-star hotel with panoramic views of Mount Teide and Puerto de la Cruz

Location & Views

Hotel Acuario Puerto de la Cruz sits in a residential area of San Antonio, 2 km from a sandy beach and the resort centre. The hotel offers panoramic views of Mount Teide and Puerto de la Cruz, a feature that distinguishes it from other budget accommodations. A bus service from the hotel provides direct access to the resort centre, and guests can also use the nearby stop for exploring the coastline.

Pool & Bar

The hotel's outdoor swimming pool is located on the third floor and is open all year, with a small sun terrace offering loungers. The pool bar serves light snacks and drinks during the day, allowing guests to refresh without leaving the sun deck. For more substantial meals, the hotel restaurant offers international cuisine in the evening, with a separate bar area open during dining hours.

Recreation & Entertainment

Hotel Acuario provides a games room equipped with table tennis, giving guests an indoor activity option. The third-floor swimming pool area also serves as a social hub, though the hotel lacks a dedicated lounge bar. Outside the hotel, a café on the corner and local shops next door offer additional convenience for snacks and drinks.

Dining

The hotel restaurant serves international cuisine for breakfast and dinner, with a half board option that includes both meals. Breakfast offers hot and cold choices, including bacon, eggs, Spanish omelette, and fresh fruit, while dinner provides a varied buffet with local Canarian dishes. Guests on half board can also use the on-site bar for beverages, though the pool bar is only open during daytime hours.
