Guest Reviews
- Андрій (10/5): -
- Mignolli (10/5): Colorato, animato, pulito e accogliente. L’ideale per godere del sud di Tenerife! - Da dove partire? La struttura in cui ho alloggiato innanzitutto è molto bella e arredata con gusto, decorata con poster e colorata. Un riferimento speciale agli splendidi disegni e decorazioni sui muri e sulle colonne del giardino.
Non di meno ho apprezzato la cordialità del personale e il fatto che, anche se il soggiorno non include la colazione, al mattino vengano messi a disposizione degli ospiti tè, caffè e perfino una fetta di torta (al limone, speciale!)
Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo. Lo suggerisco vivamente a tutti
- Heribert (8/5): -
- Adrian (10/5): - Best hostel experience ever!!! 🥳♥️✌️🥂
A place with such a good vibe, lovely staff and ofcourse lovely owner too!
You can tell the atmosphere starts from the top.creating the kind of atmosphere that brings out the best in people!!! 👌🤗

- Lukaš (10/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Fantastic! - La Tortuga was a perfect place whether travelling alone or with a friend. The atmosphere is super welcoming, relaxing and tranquil. Socialising is an option as is your own space. A real community feel to it.
- Rojas (10/5): - Me sorprendió que, como hacía mal tiempo y llovía, el hostal organizó interesantes workshops y juegos de mesas para entretener a los huéspedes.
Me divertí mucho a pesar del mal tiempo Todo perfecto
- simon goddard (10/5): - People, atmosphere
- Marina Peña (10/5): Trato genial con todo el personal del alojamiento. -
- Mila (10/5): Best stay you could ask for! Book and make memories - La Tortuga exceeded expectations in all aspects. A friendly, welcoming, and fun place to be. It suits everyone's needs, whether you are looking to make new friends or just rest up during travel. I had to do some work while on holiday, but the Wi-Fi was perfect for it and it was easy to do work in the common areas or the room I was staying in. I can't recommend La Tortuga enough, if you're on the fence, book it! n/a, it is a hostel so facilities are shared, and as long as you are expecting that, your experience should be perfect :)
- Andrea (8/5): Muy a gusto :) - Muy buen ambiente, ubicación y la cama muy cómoda. El staff muy amable. El desayuno de cortesía perfecto. Las casitas son una monada y el jardín también. :) El baño en ciertos momentos del día estaba bastante sucio, no estaría mal que se limpiase con más frecuencia al ser compartido.
- Yuri (10/5): L’ostello che rapprenta le vibes di Tenerife, pulito e pieno di sorrisi. - La pulizia, i materassi comodissimi e la gentilezza dello staff
- Sara (8/5): - Locatie, propere lakens en handdoeken na enkele dagen, mooie gezellige tuin. Propere toiletten en elke dag wordt er gepoetst. Lekkere BBQ, geweldige vibes. Beperkt ontbijt (thee/ koffie/ chocomelk met cake). Sponsjes en keukenhanddoeken moeten sneller vervangen worden.
- Palmer (6/5): - Coffee and cake in morning Its not for someone who dislikes cats as they sleep on the beds
- Piotrekyy (6/5): - Ludzie, prysznic na powietrzu Burdel w lodówkach
- Rodrigo (10/5): - La vibra del hostel
- Stanislav (10/5): - My experience with La Tortuga Hostel started with a delicious barbecue buffet and lots of friendly smiles - it immediately set the right vibe 😊
It’s a great place: clean rooms and bathrooms, fresh linens. The mattresses are comfortable - I slept well and it wasn’t too hot.
Special thanks to the staff - everyone is very friendly and welcoming.
Alessandro, hello 👋
I 100% recommend this place.
I’ll definitely come back again, and next time for longer. See you ✌️

- Sara (10/5): - staff gentile e disponibile, struttura molto carina
- ChiaChi (10/5): -
- David (10/5): Best hostel - The staff, the people, the ambiance, the fact that there are activities planed every day. You should be there on wednesday night. The shower
- Miriam (7/5): - La ubicación, el personal muy amable, por ese precio no hay nada más en esa zona El baño necesita una reforma en mi opinión. Por otro lado, el día que yo estuve entro un chico de la calle con una mochila, se ducho etc y se fué...creo que ni siquiera estaba alojado allí, y dejó un fuerte olor a marihuana...me parece que se debe controlar un poco más el acceso
- Romain (10/5): Magnifique 🤩 - Ambiance auberge espagnole 🥰
Nombreuses activités et accueil chaleureux.
Gracias Tortugas Rien
- Laith (10/5): Best travel experience ever at La Tortuga - Well maintained and clean. A hostel that feels like home, all the staff are super friendly and loving. It was so easy to socialize and meet likeminded travelers. The hostel organizes events multiple times a week, which is a huge plus. If your hesitant, this is your sign to book. I had the best travel experience I ever!! It was perfect
- Magdalena (10/5): - Fantastyczny klimat i atmosfera wśród ludzi! Luz i uwazność na potrzeby.

- Pasquale (10/5): Fantastic - I had a great stay at this hostel. Everything was very clean and well-maintained, which made me feel comfortable right away.

I would definitely recommend this place!

- Kaya (2/5): Not professional - The price is good for what is offered at the property The staff are quite rude, especially one man working there who was swearing at a young man who was staying there. He was blaming him also for his football team losing a match calling him bad luck.
- Alex (10/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff, all enquiries answered. Would definitely recommend staying NA
- xanti (10/5): -
- Gennaro (10/5): - La struttura, lo staff, la posizione
- Daniel (10/5): -
- Christian (10/5): - Hatte einen schönen Aufenthalt
- Silvia (10/5): - I chose this place because of its convenient location in the south of the island for getting to the airport in the morning: in the end, I used the transfer service arranged by the reception. The staff were extremely kind and the whole property was very clean. I joined the free yoga class and the instructor was fantástic. I also really loved the street where the hostel is located, full of palm trees and flowers, with views of the sea and the mountains.
It’s a shame I only discovered it at the end of my trip, I definitely recommend La Tortuga!
- Jordi (8/5): -
- Kayiu (8/5): The friendly staff really made a good impression - Good location, clean room and friendly staff A bit noisy at night, but manageable
- Julie (8/5): Cute hostel tucked away from the madness - I had to check-in late and they made the self check-in process very easy. The bed wasn't the most comfortable and the bathroom could have been cleaner.
- mathieu (9/5): Lovely - Lovely atmosphere, social feel (but can easily stay in your corner too), and Mia was such a vibe. Everything was good. I'd just suggest bed curtains :)
- juliette (10/5): -
- Emily anne (10/5): 5 star beauty - Staff so friendly and go out the way for you ,value for money and beautifully placed hostle There is nothing that I isn't like I love the island
- Louis (8/5): -
- Ida Urdal (5/5): - Var ok beliggenhet. Hyggelig nok personale. Kun 1 bad på 6-7 privat rom. Ganske pricy for å være privat rom uten eget bad. I tillegg var det ikke nok varmtvann på så mange . Kunne kun stå i 2 minutter i varmtvann før det ble kaldt og tok i hvertfall 30 min det ble varmt igjen .
- Joe (10/5): - A beautiful place filled with amazing people that all contribute to making the stay memorable and full of joy. N/A
- Verena Bettina (10/5): Bestes Hostel! - Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt in La Tortuga! Die Atmosphäre ist entspannt und locker. Als ich ankam hat sich die Rezeptionistin knapp 20 Minuten Zeit genommen, um mir das Hostel zu zeigen und Tipps für meinen Aufenthalt in Teneriffa zu geben.
Außerdem ist das Hostel sehr sauber. Die Angestellten verwenden einen Steamer und reinigen die Matratzen damit nach jedem Checkout.
Ich komme gerne wieder ☺️
- Pablo (1/5): -
- Vladimir (10/5): - The place is the vibe. Very clean and well maintained, cozy, lots of facilities for cooking. Super friendly, responsive and attentive staff.
- anton (10/5): -
- Elodie (8/5): - Logement agréable, personnel sympathique, ambiance conviviale
Lit confortable, casier avec cadenas pour les affaires
Piscine très appreciable
- Royen (10/5): - I loved this hostel for the welcoming of the staff group and the cool vibe of the hostel in general. This place was well cleaned. There is also a video explanation of Tenerife and I founded that super useful and well done ! As I stayed on a Sunday, I could participate to one of the activity proposed weekly by the hostel, “the sunset volleyball”. I enjoyed a lot and could meet the other guests and got to know them better, enjoy the sunset and also play a bit. I will definitely come back and recommend this hostel if you are an alone traveler.
- Daniel (7/5): - Ambiente estupendo y tranquilo Precios algo altos. Pero como toda la isla.
- csaba (10/5): - Full with emotions.
- Agapi (8/5): -
- Elisa (10/5): - So nice. 👍🏾 It was great
- Emiel (10/5): - What an amazing place, the atmosphere is amazing and it’s a nice, cosy, friendly hostel where you can socialize and make new friends. It has a very welcoming energy which makes it a place where you could extend your stay easily! I especially liked the qr codes for both the groupchats with the other guests so that you can easily go for a hike, beach, or dinner together and the code that has a very nice informational map about the island!! Very very convenient and it says a lot about how this place ja managed! If you’re doubting, just book it, you won’t regret!!!!

- Guest (10/5): Come a casa - Ho soggiornato all’Ostello La Tortuga di Tenerife e la mia esperienza è stata davvero eccellente.
Lo staff è cordiale, disponibile e sempre pronto a dare consigli utili per scoprire l’isola.
Gli spazi sono puliti e ben organizzati, l’atmosfera è accogliente e permette facilmente di conoscere altri viaggiatori.
Un grande valore aggiunto sono le attività che organizzano: escursioni, sessioni di yoga, sunset e barbecue che rendono il soggiorno ancora più divertente e completo.
Consiglio assolutamente questo ostello a chi cerca un ambiente piacevole, ben gestito e ricco di opportunità per vivere al meglio Tenerife! 🌴✨
- Guest (10/5): Short but sweet stay - A clean hostel with a warm atmosphere in a great location. The staff were all very welcoming and helpful, with great, clear communication both before and upon my arrival.
- Amandine (8/5): -
- Helen (6/5): Für eine Nacht ok - Das Personal war sehr freundlich und offen.
Das Zimmer war geräumig und sauber. Das Badezimmer war leider eher alt und dreckig. Am Morgen wurde es dann gereinigt. Wie oft das die Woche passiert, kann ich nicht sagen. Als wir abends ankamen, war es insgesamt eher dreckig im Bad. Die Dusche im Gemeinschaftsbad war für uns nicht zu nutzen, da sie nur für Personen bis ca 155cm nutzbar ist. Für mich und meine Freundin, beide über 175cm unmöglich hier zu duschen, wenn man sich nicht auf die dreckige Badewannen Kante setzen möchte.
- Annie (8/5): - Staff friendly and approachable.
Clean bedding
Great atmosphere
- Godart Anne Sophie (10/5): - Très bon accueil, hôte très sympa.
- Oscar (3/5): Some improvements are needed. - 1. Kind staff, they were helpful and gave me a tour upon arrival.
2. Great location, away from busy streets and crowded tourist spots.
3. Cute house. One of the prettiest hostels I've been in. 1. They kept a turtle in pitiful conditions (a 20 cm slider in a ~ 60 x 40 x 20 cm aquarium, 5 cm of water, no UVB light or heat lamp). As someone with a lot of experience with these animals, that was painful to see. A few guidelines to keep a turtle of that size:
- a 300 to 400 litre tank
- water depth 40–60 cm
- UVB light 10 to 12 hours a day
- dry basking platform (32 - 35 °C)
- Heat lamp
- Strong filtration
- Food: pellets, leafy greens, occasional insects or fish
Don't keep a turtle as decoration just because your hostel name is 'La Tortuga'
2. For 5 euros, you could have your laundry done. However, my clothes came out smelling horrible. The washing machine probably hadn't been properly cleaned in a long time. I also had to look for some of my socks that they dropped, and were thus, unwashed.
- Giorgiani (10/5): Fantastico, miglior ostello in cui sono stata - Ottimo clima, personale disponibile, ambiente divertente, stanze pulite e tutto il necessario. Servizi e attività consigliate. Davvero ottima permanenza Nulla

- René (9/5): -
- Louis (10/5): -
- Zahra (10/5): Would stay again. - Everything about the hostel is what you need. I’ve stayed in hostels in over 80 countries and this is one of the best hostels I’ve stayed in.
Loved how friendly the staff were. How beautiful the building is and all the activities organised. Would stay here again.
- Natalia (9/5): -

- Mark (10/5): -
- Wojciech (10/5): - Zostałom w hostelu tylko na jedną noc, ale czułom się tam jak w domu! Przemili ludzie i obsluga, pomocna na kazdym kroku. Pod wieczor mielismy zapewnione tez wyjscie na plaze z roznymi grami. Jak do tej pory najlepszy hostel w jakim nocowałom.
