very basic ,supermarkets and restaurants were nearby which was quite helpful.what i did dislike was the fact there was a private house nearby which was blasting loud music all night not a good experience even after complaining.All in all overall this appartment was good but some things let it down.rooms were big and clean and there was a balcony so...

At first I've to mention that not all rooms were that terrible like our first room but even the rooms which were in a better shape, had a few big disadvantages. Even if you are lucky and get a better (but still very basic) room, the management of this hotel is very questionable because they offer such nasty rooms like... More

Stayed here for 2 nights whilst attending a family wedding In Puerto de la Cruz. Very hard to find parking nearby depite being advertised as having parking. Had a room with a corner balcony so got sun all day and the views were beautiful. Booked for self catering but thankfully did not have to use it - kitchen consisted of... More

I stayed in an apartment here and only have one complaint that I left my coat in the room by mistake when I checked out. After telephoning the hotel and returning the next day the jacket could not be found. Why? I would suggest while I'm on here that the hotel should perhaps apply for a blue disabled bay as... More

We have recently returned from a weeks holiday at The Carabela (7th April 2012). We read the reviews here on Trip Adviser and chose it as the best place to meet our needs and budget. The positives were that the hotel was very good value for money, with a large bedroom, very clean hotel both inside the rooms, social areas... More

This hotel was cheap! I know why. The food was basic and poor, the rooms were ok but I don't really like looking at a building site from mine, the pool was emptied and not re- filled. Internet connection was charged for and slow! The staff (except for Carola and the other barman) were indifferent to the point of being... More

The Carabela aparthotel is situated in the lovely district of La Paz/ El Botanico. The area has many large 4* and 5* hotels but being on the very crest of the downward-sloping hill to the town and beaches, La Carabela has a better location than all of them. I stayed in a single roof-top apartment which gave me a sun... More

Have just returned from a week staying at La Carabela Apartments - I rated it as Very Good on the basis of cost. It was cheap. The room, and it was one large single room, had an electric hob, fridge and cooking worktop at one end and the beds at the other, with a seperate bathroom. So not really an... More

OK, La Carebela is neither luxurious nor stylish - but it's excellent value for money and we would happily stay there again. We like the La Paz area, having stayed there before - OK, the walk back from the town centre is up a fair hill, but good for walking off a large dinner! And yes, nearby parking is limited... More
