Escape to Paradise: Your Dream Coral Villa in Tenerife Awaits!
Escape to Paradise: Or, How I Almost Melted in a Tenerife Dream (and Why You Should Go Anyway!)
Okay, folks, let's get real. I'm back from a trip to… well, it sounded like paradise. "Escape to Paradise: Your Dream Coral Villa in Tenerife Awaits!" the brochure screamed. Did I escape? Yes. Did I find paradise? Let's just say the jury's still out, but the tan lines tell a compelling story. And despite a few minor hiccups (more on that later!), I'm going to spill the beans: this place is worth booking. Really.
Let's dive in, shall we? Because honestly, unpacking this whole experience is like untangling a particularly stubborn ball of yarn… with a healthy dose of sunshine and sangria.
First Impressions: Accessibility & That "Dream" Vibe
Right off the bat, let's talk about the practical stuff. Accessibility: Listen, I wasn't in a wheelchair, but I did appreciate the fact that the hotel has facilities for disabled guests. The elevator was a lifesaver (huffing up to the higher floors in that Tenerife heat is a workout I wasn't signed up for!). The exterior corridors were wide and breezy, which was a plus. And the 24-hour front desk? Absolute gold. Especially when you arrive at 2 AM after a flight delay and you're basically a zombie. Speaking of which…
The Room: My Sanctuary (Most of the Time)
Okay, the room. "Coral Villa" is a bit of an exaggeration, but it was lovely. The air conditioning was the MVP, no question! The blackout curtains were a godsend for sleeping off those jetlag naps. And the free Wi-Fi (in all rooms!)? Essential for the Instagram updates, obviously. I even loved the little touches like slippers and the bathrobes. The mini-bar… well, let's just say it earned its keep. The complimentary bottled water was a nice touch, and I'm a sucker for a proper coffee/tea maker.
Now for a little confession: I'm a total neat freak (don't judge!). The daily housekeeping was a MUST. Also, there were non-smoking rooms. Huge plus, in my book. The safe box was great to have to keep my belongings secure.
Internet Access & Techy Stuff (Because We Can't Live Without It)
The Wi-Fi [free] worked like a charm, and I appreciated also that the Internet access – LAN was also an option. I love that there was also Internet services. I'm not a huge techie, but it's good to know it's there if needed.
Food, Glorious Food (and Why I May Never Eat Buffet Again)
Okay, the food situation. This is where things got a little… complex. Let's start with the good: the breakfast [buffet]. Now, buffet breakfasts are usually my jam, but this one was…overwhelming. So. Much. Food. I mean, Asian breakfast, Western breakfast, pastries galore… I got lost. Found myself face-to-face with a plate of sausages at 9:00 a.m. It was all so…much. I eventually gravitated towards the coffee and fruit (a sane approach).
The hotel has restaurants, including an Asian restaurant and one that serves international cuisine. There was even a vegetarian restaurant which was appreciated. Thankfully, the room service [24-hour] was a lifesaver a couple of times when I just wanted a quiet night. There's a poolside bar, a snack bar, and a coffee shop.
The not-so-good: The salad in restaurant was ok, but nothing to write home about. I'm not going to lie, after a few days, I started getting a little buffet in restaurant-fatigued. I wish there were a few more options for a la carte.
Ways to Relax & Treat Yourself (Because That's What Vacations Are For, Right?)
Okay, this is where the "Paradise" part truly began to shine. The swimming pool [outdoor] was gorgeous, with a pool with a view. I spent hours floating around, pretending I was in a movie. They had a sauna, a spa, and even a steamroom. I definitely made time to visit the spa. Amazing. Pure bliss. I had a massage (essential!) and treated myself to a body scrub (I'm pretty sure I exfoliated off a layer of stress). There was even a fitness center if you're into that kind of thing. Me? I mostly stuck to the pool. But if you're feeling energetic, its there!
Safety First! (Because That Tenerife Sun Can Be Deceiving)
I'm a worrier, okay? So, the fact that they had a doctor/nurse on call, a first aid kit, and security [24-hour] was reassuring. The CCTV in common areas and CCTV outside property added an extra layer of security. In the current climate, I was really happy to see they had anti-viral cleaning products, and that rooms [were] sanitized between stays. They really took hygiene seriously, with daily disinfection in common areas and hand sanitizer everywhere.
For the Kids (If You're into that whole family thing)
I travelled solo, so I didn't use the babysitting service or the kids facilities. So, if you're bringing the little ones, you're covered! The hotel is family/child friendly.
Services & Conveniences: Because Life is Easier When Someone Else Does the Work
The concierge was a lifesaver – she booked my excursions and knew all the best spots. The daily housekeeping kept my room spotless (because, neat freak!). The dry cleaning and laundry service were super convenient. They also had a cash withdrawal service and currency exchange, which saved me a lot of hassle. The gift/souvenir shop was perfect for picking up last-minute presents (and maybe a few things for myself). The luggage storage was also a godsend.
Getting Around (Because Tenerife is Big and Beautiful)
The airport transfer was smooth and easy. They also have car park [free of charge], car park [on-site], and a taxi service.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking (The All-Important Details)
They had a bar, a poolside bar (essential!), and a coffee/tea in restaurant. They also offer bottle of water. Honestly, the Happy hour and desserts in restaurant kept me happy and sane.
Things to Do (Beyond Lounging by the Pool)
Okay, this is where I kind of dropped the ball. Tenerife is packed with things to do! They do have meeting/banquet facilities if you're into that, but I mostly stuck to relaxing.
Cleanliness and Safety (Because We Care)
The hotel takes cleanliness seriously. I felt very safe.
In-Room Amenities (The Nitty-Gritty)
Everything you'd expect: air conditioning, a desk, a refrigerator, satellite/cable channels, hair dryer, etc.
The Quirks, The Cracks, and the Almost-Paradise
Okay, here's the truth. This wasn't perfect. One day, the Wi-Fi went down for a few hours (panic!). And, yes, I had to navigate a few "lost in translation" moments with some of the staff. Also, the location is slightly off the beaten path. But honestly? It wasn’t a deal-breaker; I was there to relax.

Escape to Paradise: Your Cozy Depok Getaway Awaits!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your sanitized, perfectly-planned trip itinerary. This is… my trip itinerary. To Coral Villas La Quinta, Tenerife. Prepare for chaos, sunshine, and the potential for me to completely lose my marbles.
Day 1: Arrival and Mild Panic (aka "The Lost Luggage Saga")
- 8:00 AM (ish): Wake up, feeling like a crumpled newspaper from the red-eye flight. My internal clock is screaming, "IT'S STILL NIGHT, YOU FOOL!" but the Canary Island sun is already trying to peek through the curtains.
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast. The "Continental Breakfast" at the hotel? A cruel joke. Stale bread, weak coffee, and a vaguely yellow substance pretending to be scrambled eggs. I swear, if I see another mini-croissant, I'm going to… well, I'm going to eat it. Because I'm hungry.
- 10:00 AM: The Real Drama Begins. My luggage. It didn't arrive. Apparently, my meticulously packed suitcase decided to enjoy a solo vacation somewhere else. I'm now in a t-shirt I bought in the airport and a pair of borrowed sandals. This is not the glamorous Spanish getaway I envisioned. Panic level: moderately high.
- 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM: Suffer the insurance claim.
- 1:00 PM: Lunch near the hotel. Ordered some fried fish, a simple, delicious dish, which was amazing.
- 2:00 PM: Poolside. Or, as I like to call it, my temporary office. Now on the hunt for a bikini; a mission impossible.
- 4:00 PM: A walk around La Quinta. Stunning. Lush greenery, dramatic cliffs. Okay, I'll admit it, Tenerife is kind of gorgeous, even if I feel like I'm wearing someone else's clothes.
- 6:00 PM: Back to the hotel. Shower. Start the process of accepting my fate.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner. Found a tapas place. Ordered everything. Ate everything. Drank too much sangria. Felt slightly less like a lost, luggage-less soul.
- 9:00 PM: Nightcap on our balcony. Watch the stars, trying not to think about my missing suitcase, or tomorrow.
Day 2: Volcano Adventure and Existential Dread (aka "The Teide Tango")
- 7.00 AM: Woke up way too early. The jet lag is officially winning.
- 7.30 AM: Breakfast again, this time with a renewed hatred for mini-croissants.
- 8:00 AM: The Teide trek. We're going to see the volcano. This sounds way more exciting than I actually feel.
- 9 AM: The drive to the top is breathtaking. The road winds through a moonscape of volcanic rock, and it feels like another planet. The sheer scale of everything is humbling, and frankly, a little overwhelming.
- 10 AM: The cable car up, which is a pretty cool experience, although I was a little nervous about the height, I could handle it.
- 11 AM-1 PM: We reached the top of Teide, stood in awe of the scenery. The air is thin up there, and my lungs feel like they're about to explode. It's freezing. But the view… oh. It's like looking out over a whole other world. Colors I didn't know existed, landscapes shaped on the edge of the earth. It truly does make you feel so small, so insignificant, and a little bit terrified. But also alive. It's a weird mix. I feel like a minor character in a sci-fi movie.
- 2:00 PM: Lunch.
- 3:00 PM: We began the descent.
- 4:00 PM: Back to the hotel. The contrast between the raw, untouched landscape, and the luxurious hotel feels jarring. Almost as if I am someone else now.
- 6:00 PM: Trying to be productive.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner; pizza. Simple, uncomplicated, and necessary.
- 8:00 PM: A walk to find some ice cream.
- 9:00 PM: Bed. Exhausted, overwhelmed, and still dreaming of that lost suitcase. I think I'm actually starting to enjoy this adventure.
Day 3: Beach Haze and Accidental Adventures (aka "The Lost in Translation Fiesta")
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast. Same disappointment as previous days.
- 10:00 AM: We're heading to a beach, Playa de las Teresitas!
- 11:00 AM: Playa de las Teresitas is stunning! The sand is imported from the Sahara. This beach is a proper Caribbean dream. The water is clear, the waves are gentle, and I want to live here forever.
- 1:00 PM: Lunch at a beachfront restaurant. Paella, fresh seafood, the works. The problem: My Spanish is non-existent. The waiter doesn't speak English. I ended up with a plate of something I'm pretty sure contained octopus. And I don't like octopus. But I ate it anyway because I'm a warrior!
- 2:00 PM: Nap on the beach. Bliss. Wake up with a sunburn. Oops.
- 4:00 PM: Exploring La Laguna.
- 6:00 PM: Back to the hotel. Feeling slightly more tanned, slightly less sunburnt, and slightly more in love with Tenerife.
- 7:00 PM: Found a restaurant. Another tapas place, apparently the only option for a solo diner.
- 8:00 PM: Got a little lost on the way back.
- 9:00 PM: Bed. I’m actually starting to look forward to breakfast.
Day 4: Exploring and Final Day (aka "Goodbye Tenerife, You Crazy Place")
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast, which I ate.
- 10:00 AM: Explore La Oratava.
- 12:00 PM: A stroll around the old town. Cute, but it's getting crowded.
- 1:00 PM: Lunch with a view.
- 2:00 PM: More pool time.
- 4:00 PM: Souvenir shopping.
- 6:00 PM: Back to the hotel.
- 7:00 PM: One last dinner.
- 8:00 PM: Packing. My suitcase is still missing.
- 9:00 PM: Reflection and Goodbyes.
Final Thoughts:
This trip was messy. It was imperfect. It was, at times, chaotic. But it was also amazing. Tenerife is a beautiful place, full of life, and I'm so glad I came. Would I change a thing? Probably not. Well, maybe I would get my luggage back, but who knows. Maybe the lost luggage was the best part of the vacation.
Ciao!
