Thanks to a 2015 through 2016 renovation, the mid-range Hotel Chatur Playa Real offers an updated spin on the typical Tenerife all-inclusive hotel template. Its 178 rooms are light, airy, and minimalist, with a fresh color palette of white, bright orange, and cool gray. One- and two-bedroom Family Rooms feature kitchenettes and all rooms come with flat-screen TVs and furnished balconies -- some with ocean views -- but in-room Wi-Fi incurs an extra fee. Multiple pools, two restaurants, an Irish pub, a disco, and a nightly live-entertainment calendar keep the clientele (mostly families and pensioners) happy, though guest grumblings about the uninspired food and brisk pool water are not uncommon. For an all-inclusive right on the beach and with free Wi-Fi, compare prices with Hotel Troya, which overlooks Playa de Troya and Playa del Bobo.

Families with young children would do well at this 473-room, mid-range all-inclusive. It is not a 4-star property (as advertised), but it does feature a few nice amenities, including a large pool with a kiddy section; a kids’ club; two restaurants; and daily entertainment. The location a two-minute walk from a great beach is a major plus -- but rooms, although spacious and sunny, are basic, with dated decor, average bathrooms, and balconies furnished with plastic chairs. It’s a busy hotel, so couples looking to spend some quiet days in the sun may want to compare rates at neighboring adult-only Hovima Costa Adeje.
