Tabaiba Princess

We had a great time at this hotel and I booked this hotel (Tabaiba Princess not the Maspalomas Princess though they are side-by-side) After combing the Internet for family friendly all inclusive resorts in Gran Canaria suitable for children and adults. I will try to make this review very detailed listing pros and cons . Pros: The location: Great location with great bus access into the town, and even the airport. I could’ve taken a €10 bus ride from the airport straight to the front of the hotel but I didn’t know so I took a €52 taxi from the airport to the hotel. Took the bus thrice during my stay and it was clean and efficient. Paid on the bus by card. Ambience. The resort is beautiful, lots of pools, greenery, palm trees, lots of sun beds as well so it wasn’t overcrowded. The reception area is also beautiful. The ambience generally is very picturesque. Lots of spots to take photos. We booked the hotel for 11 days and got four complementary dinners in the resident restaurant, this is separate from the daily all-inclusive dining of breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack bars. The hotel just like the city is very clean infact one of the days I saw the staff cleaning even the elevator buttons. They work round the clock, cleaning the tables with speed and even the room service was prompt daily. Lots of activities to do as well, all you need to do is to check the hotel app with a bar code for the times and daily program schedule. There was always something to do round the clock except during meal times. My daughter had a blast and even the kids club had shows and activities for children daily, you just had to show up. The food selection was good, just that after a few days I got bored and craved some spice lol, I guess it’s just my non-European palate at play. The Mexican night menu was my favourite. Staff, was pleasant and I had nothing to fault with their service . Our room was spacious enough with amenities and a powerful blowdryer, no iron though.

The hotel has a beautiful green area, everything is clean, and the pools are excellent (they were quite warm at the end of February). The sand and gentle slope create the vibe of a real beach, making it perfect for kids. All the towels are new and soft, with beach towels changed twice a week. Free parking is available. Snack bars are open all day, and a huge plus for us was that we could take food to the pool. Both adults and kids loved the hotel!

The hotel was very large, but well laid out, several bars made no queues for drinks. Staff super professional and nice, food delicious made to order and large varied. Rooms comfortable and large, bed super comfortable, even those folding for a child. pools for children and adults, and also some heated, great at this time of year.

The hotel looks very nice and the room was great, overall. The garden is nice, with palm trees and all sorts of plants and several bars with a good vibe. The swimming pools were just ok. The staff was very kind and helpful.

Clean everywhere, amazing food variety tasting so fresh considering catering for thousands of guests, helpful staff, extremely friendly cleaners to our daughter every day in the corridors which was so cool of them, pools amazing for us and baby, location and taxi service to airport perfect, air conditioning perfect in room…. Definitely coming back!
