Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
By Axel Hernborg · Updated 1 September 2026 · How we review hotels
Families wanting a genuine five-star finish and a flagship all-inclusive programme will find Iberostar Selection Anthelia to be a strong option. The hotel holds a high booking score of 8.8. It stands out for its location on a quiet stretch of Playa del Duque and its five restaurants. On the downside, the resort's large size means it never feels like an intimate hotel.
Guests score it 8.8 out of 10 — the average across the 12 hotels we list in Tenerife is 8.9.
What Guests Loved
- Iberostar itself calls Anthelia one of Spain's best all-inclusive hotels, with five restaurants and three bars in the concept.
- The hotel fronts the calm eastern end of the Costa Adeje beachfront, away from the busiest promenade sections.
- Family-ready with a genuine five-star finish
- Extensive gardens and pool landscape
Things to Consider
- Adeje's flagship strip carries flagship pricing — especially over winter high season.
- The resort's size means it is never intimate
