Rising from the site of a grand old Canary Islands estate is the decade-old Gran Hotel Bahia del Duque, situated on the south coast of Tenerife and part of Leading Hotels of the World. Spread across 17 subtropical acres, this Spanish resort resembles a magnificent village, with a collection of nearly two dozen oceanfront buildings housing spacious rooms and suites, many with seaside views. The resort is completely full service, with 6 swimming pools, a trio of tennis courts, two squash courts, a fitness center, massage therapy, putting green and plenty of water activities.

It is our third day at the hotel and it was the best experience so far and we both are well traveled. We stay in two separate rooms in the main building: one is for parents and one is for a teenager. This is our first time in this hotel and we are going to come back this September. We met a couple who come here every year for last 29 years and counting. The hotel is amazing. It is designed in the way that balconies are not overlooked and each room has a sea view. The building looks like a village or a town consisting of separate houses and towers but they are all connected to each other. The ground looks like a royal garden with swimming pools instead of fountains. It’s on the slope, there are lots of stairs but there is an accessible path and a buggy service. I’m not sure how many swimming pools are here: there are plenty of them: heated, not heated, freshwater, seawater. There are waterfalls looking like they always been here. Everything is very well maintained, the staff is brilliant. The food oh my goodness, it is amazing! Not sure it is possible to try every dish on breakfast buffet. The hotel is on the beach which is clean and beautiful. There is no water slides in the hotel, so I would have chosen another hotel for holiday with children, but there are plenty families with young children here. Would strongly recommend this hotel, this just a paradise

I was there celebrating my 70th birthday with my daughter and we had the most wonderful time. We were greeted well at reception and escorted to our rooms on one of the hotel buggies. Out room was great with a large balcony and terrific view. The room facilities were excellent and the air-conditioning worked really well. Breakfast was a great experience. We enjoyed all the food, swam in the pools, and watched the entertainment. The hotel organised an excursion for us when we asked and were very helpful. All the staff were friendly and helpful We both had a great time. Thank you

It was one the most remarkable vacations for us. We were family of 4, including kids of 3 and 10 years old. We stayed for 5 days and 4 nights and truly regretted that it wasn’t longer. We enjoyed every single moment there. No complaints that would be important to discuss. Thank you, dear team, this was a real pleasure to discover Tenerife with you!

Great Staff & Super Relaxing Lovely secluded spot. Highly recommend the Casas Ducales part of the hotel. Our seaview was amazing & so much space in our room..huge balcony & hot tub. The restaurants, staff & shows were wonderful. The hotel is vast with lots of different pools catering to every person

This is the fourth time I have been here in the last three years. I’ll lay out below how brilliant it is, and tips (with small, trivial areas for improvement) . The views here are amazing. The architecture of the complex, with the sea close by (can hear the waves crashing) never gets old. . The food is excellent - good portion sizes, flavoursome, and the service by which it is served is second to none. Breakfast is 10/10. Good variety of options between and within restaurants. . Each time I’ve been here, such is the size of the complex that there has never been even a slight issue getting four sun beds, even as late as 11am. . Gym is good . Fantastic service when it comes to booking things outside the hotel (golf, Siam Park, any excursions you want). Also ordering taxis - guys on the door are great. . Housekeeping very good . Check-in and check-out is always a seamless experience . I have seen some comments about the rooms. Could they potentially use some TLC? Maybe. But I think they’re fitting with the architecture of the place. The rooms are clean, big, and comfortable. The balconies are excellent too. Tips / small areas for improvement . All in all, La Trattoria is our favourite restaurant. However, I think the dessert menu could be improved. . Alisios Market is one of the restaurants. The views from there, the service, and the food are all top. However, we’ve been three times over the last four years, and it seems every time we have been, it has been overwhelmed with young children. I’m not sure if it markets itself as family friendly, or whether it’s just been an unfortunate coincidence for us (there were also couples there too, not solely young families). It’s nice there, but in our experience it has not been a calming / relaxing environment due to this. As such, we think it’s the last time we may go to that restaurant. . We were only informed that the Spa would be closed due to renovation once we had arrived. Not a massive issue, as we would obviously have come anyway, but the Spa is very nice and something we look forward to. Therefore it was a disappointment to only be told this upon arrival. In summary, an amazing place to stay and we are already looking forward to our fifth visit. Well worthy of its five-star ranking, and better than anywhere else on the island without a doubt.
