IFA Dunamar Hotel

The IFA chain of hotels are quite famous in the Canary Islands. They are not 5 star hotels, but they are solid 4 star offerings. This hotel really was a great surprise. We ended up getting an April promotion and stayed two nights for 221 EUR (Regular 321 EUR) off their website. The hotel is gorgeous inside with excellent facilities, especially the outdoor pools on different levels. Most importantly, the back entrance to the hotel kicks you right out onto the beach. Playa de Ingles is pretty hilly and you need to walk a substantial distance to the beach from other hotels. The IFA is built almost over a cliff, so you can go out the top and be at the top of the hills where all the shops, restaurants, etc are…
Great views of the massive beach/​dunes and lots of great restaurants in the area. Highly recommend a visit to this area, even if people say it is too touristy! It is that way for a reason :)
