We spent 8 nights here last month, and I can honestly say that it is one of the best holidays I have ever had. This hotel is 9/10 for me personally, you can never give a 10/10 as there is always some little thing that you might not have been happy with but on the whole I was very happy with our stay here.
All inclusive: Drinks were very good measures, you could basically ask them to mix anything you wanted and they would oblige!
Rooms: our group had 4 rooms and they were all different to each other in one way or another (lay out and stuff) But our room was very nice, clean just the right size, sea view, and pool view. rooms were cleaned whenever we put the card on the door handle. all of the rooms seemed to have the same shower units which were the standard type, rain fall and removable hand held thing.
Staff: Wonderful! I can honestly say that 99.99% of the staff were absolutely brilliant, I am not even going into why it's not 100% that won't spoil my review of this hotel. Special shout out to my guy Rayco on the bar, this is one of the best bar tenders in any hotel i have been in! top fella and hope to see him again one day. Other bar staff were Lia, Manuel x 2, Bobbi, Ismael, Jesus, Radouane, any other I have forgotten pls forgive, you were all great. Animation team! Tamas, Diego, Denise and there was a 4th guy that came back from vacation on our last night but I didn't get his name, Italian fella I think... They were a very good entertainment team, there were some nights that had dodgy turns on, but on the whole, a very decent entertainment team.
Food: I will give the food a solid 7.5/10 Not to make out it wasn't nice because the food was really good quality and variety, I am just very, very bad with food, so for me to give it a 7.5, is probably someone else's 9/10! LOTS of choice, maybe too much tbh, but if you're worried about food here please don't be, you will be happy with it.
Location: very close to the beach/seas front, walking distance to Playa las Americas, Adeje, even Los Christianos if you're feeling up to a 45/60 min walk... We got the road train from the sea front to Hard Rock hotel and spent the day up that end, was a very nice day out. Also 10/15 min walk to Siam Park which we did on one of the days, I am planning on going back for 4/5 days just to hit Siam and get ever inch of it covered, what a place that is!!
A side story... I left my iPhone on the wall outside of the hotel while waiting for our transfer to the airport going home.... Some very kind person found it and handed it in to the hotel reception (on my request, they answered the call when i called my phone) I have since been reunited with said phone having had to arrange a DHL pick up for, so that is another PLUS for OLE Tropical, the very kindly packaged my phone up so that it was very secure fore it's journey back to the UK! Thank you OLE Tropical

Just had our first 2 week holiday in 8 Years and this hotel did not disappoint. The room was very spacious and clean and we also had a great see view. Being all inclusive we did not find a day when food choices were an issue (and I'm a fussy eater). All the staff from the cleaners to management were very friendly and engaging. Also the animation team (all four of them) were very good at creating a great atmosphere throughout the whole day with their activities around the pool. Finally a big thank you to Carlos the duty manager for his free fun lessons in learning Spanish phrases to enter the restaurant every day (no you don't have to speak Spanish to enter the restaurant) and making sure our stay was memorable. We will definitely be going back in the future.

This was a lovely hotel. Perfect for a girls holiday. The food was excellent, lots of delicious options. The rooms were lovely. Cleaned everyday. All the staff go out of their way to make it the most enjoyable experience. The staff were brilliant very welcoming and friendly. Lots of fun activities. The entertainment at night was great. The action/entertainment team were incredible, very fun, interactive and friendly. Always got us involved in lots of fun activities, making our holiday so much more enjoyable. Would 100% come back again.

I'd like to give a huge thank you to the whole team at the hotel for looking after us. The food was absolutely delicious, different everyday with a wide range of meats and fishes available as well as exotic salads. The day reps in particular Denise, Diego and Tamas were hilarious getting us involved in water polo, archery and huge floating obstacle courses in the pool. There was a lot to get involved in from pool parties to yoga to evening entertainment. The hotel is perhaps 10 minute walk from the strip and 15 minute from our favourite bar The Dubliner. The cleaners did a beautiful job of our rooms, neatly folding our pyjamas in the middle of our beds too, going above and beyond! Airconditioning was phenomenal. Check in/out was super easy and we even got an affordable upgrade up to all-inclusive, which was well and truly worth it with the lunches and drinks. Shout out to Bobby and Paulo on the bar who were free pouring our delicious cocktails! As a girls holiday of 5, we had an excellent time and will always remember our fantastic trip to Ole Tropical!

I'm going to share the good and bad points for this hotel.
The good points:
The hotel is clean, the rooms are clean and have all that you need.
The food, whilst a little repetitive was delicious, lots of variety and we all enjoyed it.
The animation team were great fun and did a good job of encouraging people to participate in the activities such as darts, aqua aerobics etc.
The hosts brought round fresh fruit etc around the pool in the morning.
The bad points:
The majority of the staff wouldn't smile at you, even the reception staff couldn't muster up a smile when we checked in or had a question.
The lifeguard on shift most days was rude and had no people skills.
Rules, so many rules for an adult only hotel. We felt like we were constantly being told off by the staff.
The beds are hard and I woke up with back ache most days.
The manager, a young guy in a blue shirt spent much of his day chatting to staff, and not once did he engage with the customers on holiday.
