Odkryj pobyt w mieście El Medano

I had two persons room in the northern corner of the building. The room is spacious with large bathroom and a corridor and built-in wardrobe. The hotel is nicely decorated and well maintained. The balcony was towards south-east, not very large with a table and two chairs. But as wind in El Medano is always strong and comes from the east it was not comfortable to use it, also WiFi doesn't work on the balcony and part of the room away from the corridor. There room has a fridge and electronic safety box, and TV. There are two electric sockets next to the beds, but unfortunately only one socket next to the table, which is already engaged by the fridge. The hotel staff speaks well English and is friendly. One can access the hotel either with electronic card or with PIN code of the main door and your room. The PINs are sent by email, so I suppose late arrival after 19.00, when reception closes, is possible. The hotel is located almost in the middle of El Medano, next to the only shopping center of the city featuring SuperDino and quite noisy bar. There is also smaller Supermercado Guai in 200 m. But take into accound El Medano is a very small town 1 km in diameter, so everything is in walking distance. El Medano beach is just in 300 m from the hotel. All beaches in El Medano and to the east of it are open for the wind. So they are mostly occupied by the surfers and kite-surfers. There is a small part of El Medano beach protected by the mole. 3 km to the west there is La Tejita beach, which is covered from the wind by the Montaña Roja, also offering great views over the area. There is buses 411 and 408 from El Medano going to San Isidro, where you can change to bus to the Southern Airport, other directions or do more substantial shopping in Mercadona, Lidl or HiperDino. San Isidro bus station has a machine for topping up Ten+ bus cards. In the evining people gather at Plaza del Medano, which is quite vibrant place taking into account the town is tiny comparing to Los Cristianos and Playa de las Americas.

Отличный хостел за свою цену, буквально в минуте ходьбы от океана. Дружелюбная атмосфера, ежедневная уборка, даже небольшой уголок для коворкинга. Есть две кухни, одна работает с 08:30-22:00, другая круглосуточно. Комнаты оборудованы вентиляторами. С учётом вечного ветра в Эль-Медано, довольно комфортно. Сам хостел расположен в шаговой доступности от остановок автобуса и супермаркетов, которые, кстати, работают и по воскресеньям. Единственный минус, который бы я отметил - это отсутствие навеса на крыше. Когда солнце, там очень жарко.

I had a brilliant time at this hostel and met some lovely people. The place is kept clean, the common room is a great size, and there's space to hang wet things after going in the sea/washing clothes. Lights go off at 11pm so people can sleep if they want. The location is perfect - minutes from the beach and restaurants etc. I felt that some of the staff could have been friendlier and more inclusive but overall would definitely recommend this place to solo travellers.

Este febrero, pasé una semana en este albergue y me encantó. ¡Qué albergue tan encantador! Mi alojamiento estaba en el sur de la isla de Tenerife en un pueblo calmo en la costa. El albergue no está lejos del pueblo de El Médano, y puedes caminar al lado de la costa si quieres. El alojamiento está muy cerca de una pequeña playa, es lo bastante grande para tomar el sol, nadar en el mar o bien hacer windsurf. Además, había muchas otras playas cerca que eran tranquilísimas. Hay un supermercado que se llama ‘Dialprix’ a diez minutos de pie: muy útil. Si quieres visitar el Capital de Santa Cruz, puedes montarte en una guagua para ir ahí. Los boletos no me parecieron muy caros. El pueblo en sí es genial para una semana tranquila o bien para hacer windsurf o senderismo. La casa está en una zona residencial de reciente construcción y es muy moderna. Hay una cocina comunal donde puedes cocinar la comida. La cocina tiene muchos electrodomésticos y una nevera que todo el mundo puede usar; ¡pero obviamente debes lavar los platos después! Todas las mañanas desayuné en el comedor con una vista increíble desde el balcón; la montaña y la playa de Pelada. La casa tiene un jardín comunal, una piscinita y una terraza con hamaca donde puedes tomar el sol o charlar con tus compañeros de casa. Mi habitación abajo era bastante pequeña pero acogedora también. Los dormitorios estaban muy limpios y el ambiente de la planta baja donde están los dormitorios era tranquilo y no era ruidoso. Cada litera tiene un enchufe eléctrico y las cortinas para la privacidad. Los colchones y edredones eran nuevos, cómodos y limpios. Hay baños con duchas y una zona con lavadora y muchos tendederos. Todas las facilidades eran modernas. El personal del hotel era muy amistoso e intentará darte todo lo que pidas. Caía bien a todo el mundo ya que todos fueron agradables y simpáticos. ¡Fue genial! Te recomiendo ir allí de vacaciones. Si quieres disfrutar de un viaje tranquilo y activo, debes ir allí. Es un lugar agradable y seguro para gente de todas las edades. La verdad es que es un alojamiento ideal para grupos pequeños o bien viajeros en solitario. Conocí muchas personas interesantes y amables de orígenes diversos diferente. Lo pasé de cine en las montañas con mis amigos. ¡Gracias a Aloe Vera por una experiencia inolvidable!

Very convenient hotel as it is a few minutes by taxi from Tenerife South airport (about €15 by taxi), facing the sea, the view from the room is exceptional. The swimming pool, sheltered from any breeze with glass windows, is heated and you can swim (if you are not too cold) even in winter. The restaurant is a buffet with a good variety of choices, every evening we were offered a different type of dinner (Italian, Spanish, Canarian, etc...). Outside the hotel there is a beautiful promenade along the seafront, while it is surrounded by clubs and commercial activities (the commercial area is really small). The entertainment is limited to a few hours of live music, even for children it is almost nothing and there is no play area.

We loved it. Nice and helpful staff. Apartment renovated, clean, elegant, everything available. Small heated pool. There were few people so it was enough, with a large number it would be more difficult. Toiletries, towels, bed linen, dishes all available. The airport next door and the planes added to the charm for us. There is nothing next to it. But the bus connection is ok. Though there is a piece. I really recommend.
