    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    High points at the Be Live Experience Playa la Arena include a garden setting, a first-rate pool scene, and close proximity to a volcanic beach.

    Leafy, well-maintained gardens dominate the grounds of this hotel. It only takes a few minutes to walk down a path towards a black-sand beach. The centre of Playa de la Arena is a 15-minute walk away.

    The décor here is really impressive. The huge, high-ceilinged lobby is draped in hanging vines and has a sweeping main staircase. Modern rooms, meanwhile, are styled in pastel tones.

    Great holiday in best part of Tenerife.

    Wonderful hotel. Food was a bit boring but always something you could eat. Best sunset ever! Adults package gives access to VIP lounge with premium drinks, better rooms and own section by the pools plus more. Some building work but not too disruptive. Due to finish end of March.
    Fabulous holiday
    12 Feb , 2019 LainyWynne, 503960
    Great hotel, very friendly and helpful staff, lovely clean and comfortable rooms. Great food. I really don't understand why people moan about the food choice. They are either really fussy or don't like to try new things. The food was always great,a wonderful choice, they had theme nights most nights but there were always the basics like chips and pasta. If you come away to a different country and expect English food then stay at home. Embrace the different food and culture's. All in all we can highly recommend this hotel.
    Winter sun stay
    12 Feb , 2019 hilaryanddave
    Recently returned from a month's stay in this hotel. Excellent facilities and service and spotlessly clean. The only complaint we would like to raise is the fact there is segregation of the guests if they pay a premium for a seating area in the dining room. Also a special sunbathing area and lounge. I appreciate that it provides extra money for the hotel, but it is supposedly all inclusive so extra charges should not be permitted and creates a hierarchy and bad feeling amongst the guests.
    Fabulous
    11 Feb , 2019 Michelle_J_N_72, 190758
    Such a great hotel, layout and location. Food was fabulous and a great range of drinks available. Staff were amazing, particularly the Acttiv entertainment team. David (Acttiv Chief Entertainer) went above and beyond to really make our holiday forever memorable. Always a lovely smile on his face and his energy lifted the spirits of the guests, creating such a fun and fantastic coming together of all nationalities. The shows these guys put on in the evenings were remarkable! Far superior to the external ‘professional’ shows! The way Mario and Wiktoria can dance is mesmerising! What an utterly fabulous team you have there. They are all truly a massive credit to your hotel and I really hope they get the recognition they deserve! Would highly recommend. Thank you for a fantastic holiday! We’ll be back! 😀
    Overall Very Good
    11 Feb , 2019 jos0204eph
    Please note the following points from my recent visit Entertainment - A good range of quality evening entertainment which is unusual for an All Inclusive. Plenty of daytime activities for all ages. Drinks - The usual range of local brands but on several occasions the queues at the bar were unacceptable and the bar staff were not the happiest. Head barman (blue shirt) is seriously miserable. Cleanliness - The hotel is spotlessly clean. Pools - Two nicely sized pools and one is allegedly heated. Food - A wide choice of breakfast food but the choice in the evenings is hit and miss. On several occasions the food offered was replaced with a substandard alternative as soon as the original dish ran out ie ribs replaced with grilled onions. On the whole I would recommend this hotel. However, I think they need to employ extra bar staff in the evenings and provide customer care training for the existing staff who look like I feel on Monday Mornings.
