Book it if you want a five-star with sea views, a spa and attentive staff, and you accept paying about €158 a night for it. If guest score per euro is what you care about, our Best Value pick scores higher for less.

This is for couples and families who want a full-service hotel with sea views and the extras of a five-star: spa, pool, gym, restaurant, garden and terrace are all listed by the property, along with family rooms.
It is less suited to travellers who judge a hotel mainly on its review score. At 8.4 it sits in joint seventh place out of the 10 eligible hotels we compared, and our Budget pick matches that score at about half the price.
Skip it too if a calm breakfast matters a lot to you. The morning buffet is the one area where guests regularly complain.
Location and getting around
The address is Leopoldo Cologan Zulueta, 27 - Urbanización La Paz. Guests give the location 8.8 out of 10.
Walking times here are straight-line estimates. The Archaeological Museum of Puerto de la Cruz is about 1.7 km away, around 21 minutes on foot. The lighthouse is about 1.9 km, around 24 minutes. Loro Parque is about 3 km, around 38 minutes, which is far enough that most people will want a taxi or public transport.
The route into town is not described in our data, so check the walk on a map if you have limited mobility.
What guests say
The score is 8.4 out of 10 from 4,032 reviews, a large and stable sample.
Sea views are the standout. Guests describe wide ocean scenes from private balconies, rooms and rooftop terraces. Views depend on the room, so pick the room type with care. Staff also get steady praise for being friendly and helpful at reception and in the restaurants.
The weak spot is breakfast. The spread is described as extensive, but the dining area gets crowded and guests mention dirty dishes left on tables. Going early may help, though that is not confirmed.
Price and how it compares with our other Puerto de la Cruz picks
For a 2-night stay on 10 to 12 November 2026, the reference price seen was €158.04 per night for 2 adults, about €316 in total. The median across the hotels we sampled was €123.13. These are reference prices, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Budget pick, Hotel RF San Borondon, is a three-star with the same 8.4 score at €83.16 a night. Our Best Value pick, Hotel Las Águilas Tenerife, Affiliated by Meliá, is a four-star scoring 8.6 at €119.
So the extra money here buys the fifth star, the spa and the sea views, not a better guest score.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 10 eligible hotels. For the Luxury slot, official five-star hotels come first, and a four-star only qualifies as a fallback if it scores 8.5 or more. Hotel Best Semiramis has five official stars and more than 4,000 reviews, which made it the clear Luxury choice in our sample.
