Reviews Summary
This summary was created by AI, based on recent reviews.
Powered by AI
Allegro Isora garners appreciation for its spacious rooms and a selection of amenities, including entertainment options and clean pools, though some guests suggest the pools could be warmer. The hotel's location is a hit for its proximity to beaches and scenic walks, yet a few find it a tad isolated. While the atmosphere is described as vibrant and full of life, it comes with a caveat of potentially overwhelming noise levels. Service is generally lauded for its friendly staff, but experiences of inconsistency surface. Despite cleanliness being a strong suit, areas like the bathrooms could use more attention. Opinions on value for money vary, with some guests finding the hotel a budget-friendly option, while others believe it falls short of expectations.

Would love to tell you all about my recent stay at Allegro Isora in Playa De La Arena. I would say it is a true GF hidden gem. On arrival we realised my friend had forgotten to inform them about my allergies. So I didn't hold out much hope. Once at the room I received a phone call to come to reception once settled to order my food. **I would advise contacting hotel to give a little notice. Anyway at reception they gave me a menu of different options for each day to choose from. This included starter, main and dessert. Every meal I had was gorgeous and the portions were huge as they said "to make me feel at home" The selection of pastries were yummy and all still in original packing to avoid contamination. They went above and beyond for me. I was never ill and I also never had a contamination reaction. We only ate out twice and that was only down to my daughter wanting to. I loved the hotel that much we are going back in November. The hotel itself was beautiful, entertainment if you wanted and quite if you didn't. Rooms were big and cleaned daily. The staff were lovely and friendly. And just an all round fabulous hotel.

This was not acceptable as a 4 star to us. The food choice is very poor so not ideal for fussy eaters. The desserts weren't great and the food wasn't great, some nice but not all. Pools nice but freezing. Kids pool okay as it seems to warm up with the sun, and there's one heated pool but it's still cool just not freezing. Location is very quiet. Things close early in the area. About a 10min walk down a hill to get to the beach and shops which are just souvenir shops and af dw cafes and restaurants. There's a bust op outside to take you to Los gigantes or Costa adeje. Rooms only cleaned every 3 days also which is no way enough. Nowhere for toiletries in the bathroom and there is a zip for the beds to attach but they don't seem to use them. Good choice of drinks.

We had a wonderful week at Allegro Isora. We wanted a laid back week in the sun with all our food and drink to hand and this exactly what we had. Our room on the 3rd floor overlooking the pools was clean and comfortable. The bed and pillows were also comfy. There was a good choice of food at all mealtimes. Rice,pasta,chips,salad cooked meats,fruit and cheese was always available along with a selection of meat and vegetarian dishes. We never felt the need to eat or drink away from the hotel. For us the location was good as we like to walk. It was hilly to walk down to the main resort and beach but we enjoyed that and could do it in a leisurely 10 minute stroll. Going down the hill into the residential area we discovered a beautiful coastal path which goes on for about a mile and a half with fabulous views all along the coast. I can definitely say that this is somewhere where I would return to.

Really good value holiday. Hotel apartments very well equipped and probably the comfiest beds we've had on holiday for a long time. Staff were great and always spoke when meeting or passing them. All inclusive was great, really good food with huge choice offered at breakfast. Everything cooked fresh in the kitchen in front of you. Self service drinks a big help to reduce waiters trying to keep up. Pool bar really good and lovely sunny spot. We'll done all the bar staff, Elisabeth served me so many great gin and tonics!! Hotel is in good location and you can walk for miles either direction. All in we had ace time and wish we were still there enjoying the March warmth.

Had a great week. Good food with many kidfriendly options and with many other families we felt very welcome. 1 heated pool which we thought was neccesary, but a shame it wasnt the kids pool. Shows in the evenings which could be a little loud as our kids go to bed early - depending on where your room is ofc.

The staff were most friendly, room was good,little tired maybe,we had couple of issues that were sorted quickly but kept very clean by the maids. Food was better than a lot of all inclusive hotels and the drinks actually contained alcohol..result for an all inclusive. Entertainment staff were good,particularly if you were French although they don't invite you back to play darts when you thrash em. It's a good family hotel, very French orientated though.

The hotel itself was fun and inviting. The rooms were clean and the food and drink was lovely too. There was a nice choice of food in the restaurant, and the option to eat at the pool bar for bbq. Pool bar was also open for a lighter breakfast option and was much quieter. The top pool was heated and there was a good range of activities to do during the day. Evening entertainment wasn’t so great the first night, so we skipped it after that. We went as a group of girl friends, and worried that it may have been too family orientated, but we enjoyed our stay regardless.

This is a friendly, well run hotel. All the rooms are spacious and kept clean. The food is varied with theme nights most nights. Day time entertainment is very good and Weronica from the animation team is an appsolute star. The only suggestion I have for improvement is to have an adult only area in the main dining area.

Definitely not a four star hotel but a nice hotel apart from the restaurant and bar. Swimming pools and pool bar are excellent. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms decent enough but quite dated. Nice location close to beaches, bars and shops. The reception is efficient and friendly but design very dated consistent with bar and restaurant. The design is like a 60s ice cream parlour and grating on the eyes and ears.? They need to refurb the whole hotel especially these public areas. More importantly the restaurant needs its processes reviewing as there are constant queues to get in and things run out quickly or are cold. Coffee machines are rarely in working order. Staff do their best but the hotel needs investment.

We had a great stay in a lovely location. However, there were issues. We arrived at the hotel at 1.50pm and told the room would be ready in 30 mins. No problem, we went for lunch. Came back at 2.50pm. Still not ready. At 3.15 I gave up and went to the room to sort it out myself. Still cleaning so I insisted we came in to unpack. Still had to prompt for pool towels and coffee facilities. Sorted at 3.40pm. The soft drinks machine went empty so I tried to get it refilled. Problem was nobody could speak English. Talking to me in Spanish. People friendly enough but generally the organisation not very good.
