We sent an E-Mail to the hotel asking for a quiet room ,on a high floor,away from the busy road,and that is just what we got. Top floor(11th)with a great sea view thrown in.

CLEANLINESS-Public areas 5 Star,Room not so good,but acceptable.FOOD-Could have been 4 Star,but for concerns about undercooked meat(particularly show cooking) and "fresh" fruit with mould on(for several days running).Otherwise good choice except for lack of suitable vegetables on many occasions.

LOCATION-Ideally situated midway between Los Christianos and El Duque with a sea front walk all the way.Some people may find the hill and steps down to the sea front a bit of a bind.STAFF-Could have been 5 Star but for concerns in restaurant.

ENTERTAINMENT-Better than most hotels we've been to,with excellent ABBA and Beatles tribute bands,and some gifted acrobats,jugglers etc.The Star Friends efforts were decidedly 2 Star.

Would probably not visit this hotel again because of the restaurant.

This was our 2nd visit and we will be making a 3rd.

Hotel is spotless, staff are friendly.

Activities excellent football etc

Food great but try to eat out as local restaurants are cheap and very good.

Email the hotel before you go and ask for a sea view, we stayed in room 148 great views.

This was our 2nd visit to this wonderful hotel and it did not disappoint second time round. We e-mailed the hotel beforehand with a few requests and they were all met including a fantastic room with a huge balcony and excellent sea/pool views. A great start!!

Added to this on our second day we received a knock on our room door to be met by a waitress with an ice bucket complete with champagne and 2 glasses-very nice indeed!

The hotel is always spotless and rooms well cleaned daily. Cockroaches obviously not welcome here!!!

The hotel staff are in the main very adult/child friendly and speak good English.

The hotel entertainment was the usual mixed bag some good some bad a terrible magic act springs to mind but the kids disco is heaven for an hour!!

The food as others have commented on is fantastic and should appeal to all.

The hotel is well located and a nice walking distance to the not so pleasant Playa de las Americas with it's hordes of timeshare pests who do not take no for an answer despite what your rep may tell you so stay in Costa Adeje or visit Los Cristianos for a change of scenery.

Jungle park and Loro Parque are well worth a visit especially if you have children as some of the shows enthralled my young son as well as his mum/dad!

Would happily recommend this hotel as I feel it is a very good 4* and I hope to return again in the near future!

Very clean hotel, with friendly staff. Really enjoyed the food thought there was a very varied selection probably due to the many nationalities in this hotel. Although hotel full in second week we found that there was never a queue waiting for a table.

Location fine, bit of hill down to beach but lovely walks along the promenade. Entertainment in the hotel was a little dull on some nights but have to say a couple of professional acts and the flamenco were good.

Love to go back to this hotel every bit as good as Thomson Gold and Platinum. Swimming pools nice, plenty of sunbeds.

I you want a quiet holiday this is the place to go, approx 6 children here at most, 2 of them ours.

Hotel is full of middle aged to elderly visitors, a large percentage being German.

The food is excellent, you could not get better anywhere, the only thing which lets the hotel down at meal times is at dinner. There is no drink supplied not even water for the table, you have to pay for any type of liquid refreshment (tea and coffee not available at dinner).

Road works now finished around the hotel. Be warned there is a steepish walk down to the beach (steps and slopes). Hotel and surrounding areas very clean including pool areas.

Safe deposit costs 17 euros including 5 euros deposit which is refundable. The rooms although clean do not deserve a 4 star rating 3 star would be more appropriate.

Went on the Teide and Island tour which we booked down towards the beach at the rear of the hotel, an excellent day out costing 19 euros each, much cheaper then booking it with the tour reps at the hotel.

The only reason we would not return to this hotel, is that we make a point of never going back to the same place twice.

Cannot beliebve what some people find to moan about! This hotel is one of the best we have stayed in, everything was spot on. Although the hotel is really geared up for the kids, including games room(with table tennis, pool table and arcade games), competitions (rifle shooting, darts, bowling, mini golf and football) and entertainment (mini disco and shows) it wasnt overrun by them, but enough to keep my two sons (aged 7 and 10) company. The activities were for everyone, young and old, and the staff (starfriends) who arranged these were very friendly but not too pushy - you did not have to participate.

The hotel was extremley clean everywhere.

The food was good with lots to chose from, again the waiting staff were friendly and always working with a smile.

The entertainment of an evening was pretty good, while we were there we saw some professional shows and some by star friends who must work really hard.

The location was good too, not even 5 min walk to the beach, and promenade with shops, bars and restuarants, about a 10 minute walk to the water park and 10 minutes to port colon with more shops and bars.

We do not have one bad word to say about this hotel , thankyou Hotel Bouganville for a fantastic holiday.

We were greeted by champagne on arrival which is always a great way to start any holiday.

Hotel is well situated near to shops, beaches and local bars/restaurants.

It was very clean and the staff were very helpful. We'd asked for a room with a sunny afternoon balcony and they ensured that we got that.

Food was fantastic! There is something for everyone and a carvery every night. The waiters were friendly and extremely efficient. They never seemed to stop working but always with a smile.

Can't say about the entertainment as we went out every evening after dinner.

Returned recently from our second stay at the Bouganville Playa. We were really looking forward to seeing the refurbishments that had taken place, but to be honest we were a bit disappointed.

POOL AREAS

It appears that it is only the pool areas that have been refurbished, but the pool shapes are exactly the same. The main pool is a large rectangle shape surrounded by rows of sun beds, and looked almost exactly the same as before (and is freezing cold!) There are LOTS of sun beds, but they are very close together and there is not much room to manoeuvre! The smaller pool is heated and is very nice, but whilst we were there it was troubled by the noise from the road works right outside the hotel.

ROOM COMFORT

The rooms are large, and we were lucky enough to have a room away from the road works, but I would say the rooms are quite tired and dated, and I would say needed a refurb more than the outside space. There were plenty of drawers and hanging space. The beds were comfortable. Our balcony saw the sun in the afternoon, which was very pleasant. There was a small fridge in the room which was provided free of charge. There was a TV which had a limited number of channels. The bathrooms were quite small, and ours definitely needed a revamp.

FOOD

The dining room was large and there were lots of tables, we never struggled to find a table at breakfast or dinner. The food choice was okay, personally I didn
