Great location

GF Fanabe
This was our second visit to the Fanabe Hotel in Costa Adeje.
Arrival at the hotel was smooth and we only had a short wait to check in where a man started our check in then Suzy, who I am sure checked us in on our last visit finished the check in. We got our all inclusive bands and our safe key which was free. We also got our meal ticket and our pool towels ticket. Then we went to the Hall Bar for a refreshment while awaiting our room being ready.
We were on the 4th floor in room 4479. The double 4 confused me until part way through our stay we realised it was a connecting room to 479. We had a beautiful seaview, over looking rooftops to the sea.
Our room like last time was roomy and clean. Plenty room to store our clothes as well as a bench which we mainly used for the swim wear. There are two hooks for hanging coats or towels. There was also a sofa with a table and chairs set too. There was a mini fridge and a tv with English channels. The beds were high but I found them very comfy and slept well.
The bathroom was clean and roomy too. The power of the water was strong. Hot water whenever we wanted it.
The Balcony had two chairs and a table and was ideal for sunsets and drying wet things. It had the sun most of the day which was great.
The Bars… there are 3 and within 2 hours of arriving we visited all 3. The Hall Bar is nice for a morning cup of tea or a juice and alcohol or mocktails too. In the evening we found it was mainly table service but just go to the bar during the day.
The pool bar depended on how busy it was. On our first visit the staff were falling over themselves to help us when we sat down but we hadn’t decided yet. Nothing was too much trouble. During 12.30-4.30pm you can order at the snack bar too for food. There was a fridge with fruit, yoghurts, salad, sandwiches and pastries. I was disappointed when I went to the ice cream as gone was the lovely self service ice cream and replaced with the cheap tubs you find in mainland Spain. The staff were great and the food was ok. I enjoyed the fruit pots as they were nice and refreshing,
The Solarium Bar on the Rooftop was great for a drink while sunbathing. This is adults only and when families tried to join, staff did remove the families which was good to see.
The main restaurant was fine. Breakfast had good choices from cereal, continental choices, lovely bread and pastries, cooked options including veggies, eggs, omelettes and pancakes. There was a decent fruit and yoghurt selection as well as milk and seeds.
We found lunch to be not as big a choice and lacking. It was better to go to the pool bar.
Evenings had a good choice of salads, meats, vegetables, fish options. There was puddings of cakes or ice creams with toppings. My only disappointment was seeing a soft serve ice cream TikTok and it was never open.
The hotel was regularly being cleaned. We always found a sunbed on the rooftop no bother. But did see people going to the main pool while we were in breakfast.
The location of the hotel is up a hill. But we realised if you crossed the road there was less on an incline on the way back up. Taxi’s are cheap and frequent too. The market is next door, and plenty shops nearby with a short walk to beaches. The wee train stops outside the hotel too.
My only disappointment was on our last night. I was questioned as to why I don’t drink alcohol. It wasn’t just once several staff seemed perplexed by wanting mocktails or a cup of tea. I didn’t feel I should explain myself but my husband was irritated by it so started to tell people it was medical reasons.
I don’t think we will manage to return before their refurbishment starts but it is an ideal base and a great hotel to stay at. It does make me sad that I will not be able to spend my 50th there next year.

Thank you very much for returning to GF Fañabe and for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your stay. We are delighted to hear that your arrival was smooth and that Suzy and the team helped make you feel welcome once again.
It’s wonderful to know that you enjoyed your sea view room, the rooftop solarium, and the convenient location of the hotel close to shops, the market and the beach. We are also pleased that you found the hotel clean and comfortable, and that our team at the bars and restaurant generally looked after you well during your stay.
We truly appreciate your constructive feedback regarding the food variety, the ice cream options, and your experience on the last evening. Please accept our apologies if any interaction made you feel uncomfortable — this is certainly not the experience we wish our guests to have, and your comments will be shared with the team so we can continue improving our service.
It was a pleasure to welcome you back, and we sincerely hope we may have the opportunity to see you again in the future.
Best regards

Health hazard. Save up, find a different place.

I stayed at GF Fañabé for about one month in December 2025 while searching for long-term accommodation. My experience was extremely disappointing and at times deeply concerning. The reception staff consistently refused every request I made. There was little to no willingness to assist, and no effort to provide any type of service. Calling a taxi for me multiple times a day to get out of the place was the only thing they were willing to do.
To name a FEW issues:
- I requested the replacement of a visibly stained pillow after my room was presumably cleaned. I used the card they make you use to 'request' a clean bed every day. When notifying reception of this I was told they would replace it (again) right away. After they left for the second time I removed the pillow sheet and it was the same dirty pillow with the same recognizable yellow stains. When I asked for an actual replacement I was told this was not possible “because it was Christmas”, and that they would not be able to obtain a clean one. After that I removed ALL the bedding myself to see how far that damage goes and I was severely shocked to find a heavily stained mattress, all layers of sheets inbetween and bedframe underneath. See photos. Each and every layer was downright disgusting and even the bottom of the bedframe had actual stains of excrements on it. See photos. During my stay, I developed a severe fungal infection, which medical professionals later linked to the bed. It was not bedbugs, which I was afraid of, but a serious hygiene issue from the hotel bed.
I had to remove everything except for a wooden bedside table out of my room and put it in the hallway because I wouldn't sleep one more day even close to it. Apparently it was Christmas so nothing else could be done and I had no other option. The side effect of that was that other customers could see the stains on everything and were also raising their concerns. Only after that management was willing to listen to me. During that conversation I informed the staff that the phone I had put on the desk was recording all of their conversations to have it translated and potentially reported to the health authorities afterwards. All of a sudden they managed to provide a replacement mattress, sheets, pillow and even a bedframe. What happened to it being Christmas?? I kept the mattress wrapped in plastic and ended up sleeping on the floor for hygienic reasons. See photos.
At another point, I had blood coming from my ear and feared a serious medical emergency and rushed to the reception for help. The receptionist told me they had no in-house doctor and instructed me to return to my room. When I insisted and requested an ambulance, she initially refused and instead questioned me about insurance matters, which was neither appropriate, professional or any of her business in that situation. After repeatedly emphasizing and pointing her at the blood.coming.out.of.my.ear streaming into my neck, she finally called a taxi to take me to the emergency room after SEVEN minutes. The delay in assistance was alarming. I couldve seriously died from brain damage because of her delays. See photos of email to higher departments
Later when I was completely deaf in one ear because of that, the gal even had the nerve to tell me she wouldnt talk to me at all 'like this' and refused ANY answer - when I was only trying to listen sideways with the ear that still worked to what she was saying. She saw this as "attitude, and not even showing the respect of looking at her when she speaks". Complete insanity and beyond rude in every way.
The housekeeping staff entered my room multiple times despite the “Do Not Disturb” sign on my door. I discovered this by coincidence when I was sitting on the balcony and they must have assumed the room was empty when we bumped into eachother. Although I left daily tips for the cleaning, and put everything in a bag for them to simply pickup the room was barely cleaned. The bedsheets were made to appear tidy, but little else was done. On one occasion, a bag of trash I had left for removal was placed back inside my room(??!). The laundry service applied surcharges to every order even though the forms were calculated by reception.
There were also repeated payment and reservation issues. While cash was accepted upon arrival, extensions were repeatedly refused in cash until the manager, José, had to step in at the last minute to approve/fix it. He might show up at 10.00, or 11.00. You'll just have to be there, wait and see. Every time the reception kept saying it was impossible to pay with cash when it was clearly not, and had been done multiple times before. Even when payments were made in advance through a travel agency by bank (approximately €1700), I was told there was no reservation found. These repeated administrative problems caused significant stress and uncertainty about whether I would be asked to leave, or return to an emptied room. I had sleepless nights and had to cancel many activities and housing visits just to stay in my room until José decided to show up somewhere before 12PM each and every time.
The room itself had single-glazed windows, offering little to no sound insulation. Loud repetitive live-entertainment music played daily on one side, and a karaoke bar on the other side of the street blasted noise until midnight. The shower only has a glass door that stops at the edge of the bathtub. This design, or lack of maintenance of it, caused water to leak onto the floor regardless of how carefully it was used. Only two towels per day were provided, and one had to be used to keep your feet dry after a shower. Additionally, tourists frequently fed pigeons, resulting in large numbers gathering on the balconies. The food in the restaurant isn't good or bad. But almost every table is set next to the path where people can walk and they will continuously cough towards you and your food. If the room doesn't get you sick this will.
Based from what I saw at some other reviews I anticipate that management may respond by deflecting responsibility or suggesting that concerns should have been raised differently, or at all. However, the photographic evidence speaks for itself. I also added my email to management from dec 24th. It was told to them in person and I emailed their top department about all of this at some point. Their different departments are not coördinated and they are simply twofaced trying anything to keep the place going. No fuss, you get sent away.
On tripadvisor it also states they speak multiple languages. They do not. They speak spanish, and some have a basic understanding of English. That's it.
Overall, I found the hotel to be poorly maintained, unhygienic, and lacking in professional service. After returning to The Netherlands to recover, the infections resolved within one week. I would strongly advise potential guests to consider these factors carefully and decide to book elsewhere.
As a final suggestion: the hotel I returned to for the month of February was a much better experience for roughly the same amount of money and it's only 200m distance to GF fanabe. You can find more about that in my reviews and I would advice you to go there (or anywhere else really).

Lovely holiday

We loved our holiday here. Grandchildren spent most of the time in the pool where sometimes there were inflatables like a pirate ship to add interest. Animation team were excellent even though our grandchildren didn't join in. Choice of food at breakfast and dinner was wonderful with something for everyone. Everyone in our group of 5 could find plenty to eat. We asked for quiet rooms and that is what we got. There was a nightclub opposite but all quiet at midnight. Fabulous views of the mountains. The whole hotel was spotless. The cleaning team worked tirelessly. Having pool towels provided was a bonus. Yes you needed to be out reserving your loungers between 7.30 and 8 at the latest so we had breakfast in shifts. Not too bad. Close to a great supermarket across the road and close to Fanabe beach with restaurant s but we walked to next beach ElDuque which was beautiful with golden sand. Nearby are beautiful designer shops and gardens with
views. Hotel description said tea and coffee making facilities provided but we had to ask for kettle and get our own tea and coffee. Room was comfortable and large bathroom. Air conditioning was good too. We loved it .

Honest review from a family

*DONT BOTHER* not worth the money, time, nor hassle. Food was inedible most nights- nicest thing was the chicken nuggets and chips from the pool bar. If you want a sunbed not only to do you need to get up at 5.30am you have to sit on the sun beds till the pool opens at 10am. Me and my partner spent most of our holidays separate till 10am because of this. Drinks were awful made us all feel ill! All your typical holiday cocktails and spirits were not included. No lunch on your last day even if you’re not leaving the hotel until late afternoon. No inflatables or footballs other than rubber rings allowed in any of the pools even though they sell them in the hotel shop! Bar and restaurant staff were so unbelievably rude they made you feel awful for just asking for a drink! I’ve never experienced behaviour like this before. I’ve never once complained about anything but this needs to be said. Save your money and avoid!!
Only 2 good things about this hotel. Rooms were cleaned every day which was lovely and the staff for the kids were incredible. We are absolutely gutted that this was our yearly holiday. Should be a 3 star at best.

Will stay here again excellent hotel and staff.

We have stayed for the last two years and this year twice and will be back again next year. They give us the same room as requested but I know this can alway be offered. From the moment you walk into the hotel the reception staff are welcoming, this is the same for all staff including the pool staff who welcome you in the mornings. Can I say that "will " on the roof terrace bar make your holiday. The hotel is clear bright and the food is excellent, I have heard people saying that food is rubbish and it looks like they live on Big M at home. There is always something to eat and some time too much, me and my wife put 6 and 7 pounds in a fortnight. What ever you do keep the roof terrace so us without children can sunbath in peace.
