FERGUS Puerto de la Cruz
Splash zone, suites and spa, all in one address
About this hotel
FERGUS Puerto de la Cruz is one of only two hotels in this update that combine a children's pool, family-suite-style rooms and a spa under a single roof, the other being Coral Teide Mar a short distance away. Guests rate it 7.9 out of 10 across more than 1,000 reviews, a solid middle-of-the-pack score for this group. Its position among the seafront hotels puts Lago Martiánez, Playa Jardín and the walk into Puerto de la Cruz's pedestrian old town within easy reach, useful on a stay built around alternating between the hotel's own pool and the lake. Families choosing between FERGUS and Coral Teide Mar are largely picking on room availability and personal preference, since both cover the same three family needs on paper.
- Children's pool on site
- Family-suite-style rooms
- Spa and wellness access
Our take
Few addresses in this update check every family box at once, but FERGUS Puerto de la Cruz does: somewhere for younger kids to splash, a suite-style room for the group, and a spa for the adults once the children are asleep. It's not the highest-rated hotel in this batch, but for a family that doesn't want to compromise on any of the three, it's one of only two options here that cover all three.
- ✓Ask at booking whether the family suite has a connecting door or a single larger room, since layouts vary within this hotel's suite category.
- ✓Use the hotel's own kids' pool for the first swim of the day, then walk to Lago Martiánez once the lake gets busier by midday.
- ✓Compare directly against Coral Teide Mar before booking, since both hotels cover the same splash-zone, suite and spa combination.
Why we love it
- Covers kids' pool, family suites and spa in a single hotel.
- One of only two hotels in this update with all three.
- Close to the seafront strip and Lago Martiánez.
- A practical, no-compromise pick for families with mixed ages.
Why guests love itWe needed a kids' pool for our youngest and a room big enough that she'd still nap while the rest of us stayed up, and FERGUS Puerto de la Cruz was the first hotel we found on this stretch that offered both. The spa turned out to be a bonus we hadn't expected to use much but ended up enjoying most evenings once the kids were down. It's not a flashy hotel, but it covered everything our family actually needed for a week.
