Hollywood Mirage

This was our 2nd visit to this hotel after first being here in October 2025 and we enjoyed it even more this time round! We arrived at lunchtime so made use of the on-site luggage lockers. The cost is €2 and we stored 2 cabin suitcases and 2 under seat bags in the one locker which is great before heading down into los cristianos for some lunch. As others have mentioned, the hotel is at the top of a series of very steep hills but it is walkable or you can get the hotel's shittle bus or a taxi. Taxi's are about €5 euro from the bottom. We were fully self-catering so can't comment on the food but the bar area is good and we often had a couple of drinks here before heading out for the night. The main pool was very lively and the entertainment was good, but there are other pools that are much quieter and just as refreshing if you want to get away from the noise. Our room was great if a bit dated but it was big and clean and the air con was very welcome! We opted for a non-sea view this time and actually preferred the room layout on this visit to last time. All in all can't fault it!

This is our 2nd stay at the Hollywood, we stayed in 2024 it was perfect however this year the apartment we were given in the White House was not a patch in our previous one. Holes in the wall peeping out behind the chest of drawers obviously removed previous socket and left it, aircon in main bedroom leaked it was fixed quickly, a light had been removed in main bedroom and just left bare, shower in main bedroom was so scaled it had barely any flow, clearly been a flood from upstairs at some point and redecoration needs to be done on the stair well within the apartment. We moved in on the Monday for two weeks, in that time we had towels changed 3 times and the beds apart from those 3 times the cleaner didn’t show, I found this poor for a two week stay, it needs a deep clean.

We have been to his hotel three times for a meal when we have stayed in Los Cristianos previously. It was always first class with some good entertainment too. July 2026, decided to pay another visit & was so very disappointed, it has gone downhill dramatically, we always had a great meal with waiter service, everyone was well dressed and there was a great atmosphere. This time there was a help yourself buffet service, a very poor selection,, all hot meals were stone cold with very little choice of food. Most people were in their swimming attire or shorts & tee shirt, we saw someone coming back from a nearby restaurant with takeaway pizza & chips, which I’m sure was preferable to what was on offer. Unfortunately we paid for this dire experience before we realised the changes and the downward spiral the hotel has taken. It’s listed now a three star but I have only given it one star because I had to.
