The family-focused, three-pearl Compostela Beach Golf Club is a popular 156-apartment hotel with all-inclusive options. Though the resort's name may lead travelers to believe otherwise, both the beach and entrance to the neighboring golf course are a 10-minute walk away. On-site there’s a decent-sized pool with a kiddy section, plus a bevy of kid-friendly amenities such as a kids club, game room, and daily entertainment program. Spacious and bright apartments have fully equipped kitchens but some dated furnishings; all except loft studios come with small private gardens or balconies. The buffet eatery's food receives many negative reviews, but there are plenty of bars and restaurants within a few blocks. The resort offers good value overall, but it's worth comparing rates with the similar Parque Cristobal Tenerife.

In a lot of ways, the upper-middle-range, 535-room, family-friendly Mediterranean Palace Hotel is the archetypical Playa de las Americas beach resort (except that it's not all-inclusive). Features here are profuse, especially when you take into account the amenities at Cleopatra Palace Hotel, Mediterranean Palace's sister property where guests have access (Hotel Sir Anthony is also part of the complex, but it is not accessible to Mediterranean guests). Mediterranean's best features are those geared towards children; both the hotel's pool and kids' club are enormous and outfitted with play equipment. Though the rooms here have certainly seen better days -- furnishings and decor are in urgent need of replacement -- they all have balconies and free Wi-Fi and safes (mini-fridges cost a fee). Travelers wanting a more grown-up atmosphere, all-inclusive rates, and modern rooms would be happier at the adult-only HOVIMA Costa Adeje, though that hotel is a bit further back from the beach.

The upper-middle-range, 431-room beachfront Cleopatra Palace Hotel is one of the three hotels in the Mare Nostrum Resort complex, along with Mediterranean Palace and Hotel Sir Anthony. The Mare Nostrum compound at large is what comes to mind when one thinks of the quintessential ornate Playa de las Americas beach resort, but Cleopatra has more of a calm atmosphere that caters to couples. A pool framed by Roman-inspired statues and sunning patios, a thalassotherapy center, a beach bar, and a buffet restaurant (where the free breakfast is routinely praised) are the main features here, and guests can also access all Mare Nostrum facilities. Rooms are all quite dated, but their furnished balconies -- some with plunge pools -- and marble bathrooms are nice perks. The beachfront location on Playa de las Americas' Golden Mile is fabulous, but of course with that comes noise. Travelers who want to go the all-inclusive route (Cleopatra offers half- and full-boards, plus bed-and-breakfast) could try H10 Conquistador.

The mid-range Hotel Olé Tropical offers contemporary rooms and leisure facilities outside of central Playa de las Americas, a 10-minute walk from the nearest beach. Numerous restaurants and bars are within walking distance, but past guests have complained of late-night noise -- light-sleepers should request a room not facing the street. The 189 rooms are clean and up-to-date, outfitted with monochrome decor, air-conditioning, mini-fridges, and outdoor spaces, some with distant sea views. Features include an outdoor pool and separate kiddy pool, kids' club, entertainment team, and spa services. A buffet restaurant and two bars are available, as are all-inclusive packages. Couples wanting something more romantic should consider the adult-only Hotel Sunprime Ocean View.

The 191-room Sunprime Coral Suites and Spa is an upscale, adult-only hotel with vibrant and modern decor. Contemporary and colorful guests rooms are outfitted with free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, and well-equipped kitchenettes, as well as furnished balconies. Note that some previous guests have complained of noise, particularly in road-facing and lower-level rooms. The hotel's central location puts guests within an eight-minute walk of the famed Playa de la Americas, as well as near restaurants and bars. An array of on-site features include a large outdoor pool, expansive spa, gym, and well-reviewed restaurant with all-inclusive options. Visitors traveling with children under the age of 16 might enjoy the four-pearl, beachfront H10 Costa Adeje Palace.

The budget-friendly HOVIMA Atlantis is a quiet, 225-room apartment-style property that is a four-minute walk up a slight hill from the seafront promenade and the marina. Rooms are clean and spacious, with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, kitchenettes, and balconies (many with sea views), but decor could stand to be spruced up a bit. On the amenities front, Atlantis is considerably more dialed back than most area hotels: Its main feature is its casual pool deck featuring three side by side pools (one for children), a hot tub, and a pool bar serving breakfast, lunch, and drinks. There is also an airy and spacious indoor living room, with table seating, easy chairs, and meeting nooks. Travelers wanting something livelier and more features-laden could try Hotel Troya, which is right on the beach.

Set on a quiet hilltop with views out onto the ocean in the distance, Paradise Court Aparthotel is a budget-friendly self-catering option with 20 apartments integrated into a larger apartment complex with full-time residents. The property offers a mix of Studio, One-Bedroom, and Two-Bedroom Apartments, all with fully equipped kitchens complete with refrigerators and four-burner stovetops, but some dated decor. Common areas are limited to a lovely central swimming pool surrounded by lounge chairs, plus a small bar/reception area with a few tables and billiards. There are a tiny gym and sauna available as well. Travelers looking for a self-catering apartment hotel with more amenities, including all-inclusive packages and kids' activities, may want to consider Laguna Park II nearby.

The upper-middle-range, family-friendly Green Garden Resort and Suites is an all-inclusive optional property packed with charm and character. Its 121 apartments are attractive and spacious, all equipped with fully equipped kitchens, private balconies or terraces, and flat-screen TVs. The resort's two restaurants -- one buffet and one a la carte -- are a cut above the norm, and there's a well-stocked market on-site for self-catering guests. Extensive features for both adults and kids include three pools, a playground, daily entertainment, a small gym, and a Thai-style spa. The property is surrounded by the Las Americas golf course, but it's a 30-minute walk from the beach, restaurants, and shops -- the hotel does offer a free shuttle. Travelers looking to be closer to the action should check out the Parque Cristobal Tenerife, which is a 10-minute walk to the beach.

The two-and-a-half-pearl Vistasur Apartments is tucked inside of the Vistasur Shopping Center complex and a two-minute walk from the beach. The location is convenient, with plenty of shops and dining options nearby -- especially beneficial as there is no restaurant and just a poolside bar. While the complex and lobby have a contemporary aesthetic, the rest of the hotel is quite dated and the pool deck is well-worn. Its 59 apartment-style rooms look straight out of the '70s, though they do come with flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, well-equipped kitchenettes, and furnished balconies; only the sea-view rooms promise air-conditioning, however. It's worth comparing rates with the Kn Columbus Aparthotel, which has a ton more features and some modern rooms, but it's set farther from the beach.

The quiet and friendly budget-friendly Marola appeals to easygoing families, couples, and friend groups in need of a pleasant and favorably located hideaway. The 72 rooms consist of studios and one- and two-bedroom apartments, each equipped with a kitchenette, sleeper sofa, and private balcony overlooking either the pool or the lively street below and mountains in the background. The low-key pool scene features a heated pool, separate kids' pool, snack and drink bar, white sun loungers, dwarf palms, and flowering plants -- but no poolside animation or music. A game room with free Wi-Fi, a simple buffet restaurant with street terrace seating, a small fitness room, and laundry facilities are also found on-site. It's worth comparing rates with next door sister property Marola Portosin, where the pool is slightly larger and rooms are a touch more modern.
