This was our ninth trip to stay in Costa Adeje with Iberostar, and our third trip to Grand Salome. Previously we had stayed at Anthelia. We were joined this time by our daughter who loves the “adult focus” at Salome as much as we do. We stayed from 12 April 2024 to 19 April 2024. This is a superb hotel; from the moment you arrive in the main reception and are greeted by the Salome butler team and offered your first glass of Cava. There is a beautiful scent throughout the hotel which always greets you, carried on the gentle breeze. The quick, stressless check-in process was sorted for us this time by Alejandro, who also took some special requests for our rooms. Fran organised for our luggage to arrive in our rooms and offered to talk us through the various facilities in our rooms, though not needed by us this time. Both very efficient. Our rooms and bathrooms were spotlessly clean and made so every day. We much enjoy the main hotel buffet in Restaurant Zeus and on the first night, and actually, during the whole stay, ate there each evening. The choice of food options is perfect for whatever you feel like in the day, and there are food “themes” each day, such as, Mexican, Canarian, seafood, and sushi, as well as the extensive salad selection, and of course, you can grab yourself choices of different meats and fish from the grill, cooked to your order and taste. You can have as much or as little as you like. Rebekah was our host on a number of evenings in Zeus and remembered us from a previous visit…she was very friendly and super-efficient, not forgetting her fantastic sense of humour. We go on the “all inclusive” package which of course includes drinks, and the restaurant has access to a great selection of good wines, which are pretty much all available to Salome guests on the “inclusive package”. “Inclusive” in Salome also gives you access to all the restaurants on the property including Poseidon Gourmet and Portofino (Italian, at night and Canarian Grill during the day) as part of that package. We always had breakfast on the Mirador Terrace, overlooking the sea and the neighbouring island of La Gomera. A fine selection of cereals, fruits, yoghurts, pastries, fabulous Iberico ham and other meats, cheeses, as well as a selection from a further “a la carte” menu if wanted, and access to the main Zeus Restaurant for anything else you could possibly need. Taittinger champagne to wash it down (or Cava if preferred). Our preference during the day is Lagarto (a la carte) restaurant and bar next to the Salome pool area, which is staffed by an awesome team. It’s open all day from 10am to 11pm with lunch from 1pm to 4pm. The service around the pool is nonstop, with glasses of iced water being brought around to anyone who wants them at their poolside beds, fruit smoothies, cocktail of the day, and small “amuse bouche” before lunch and ice creams during the afternoon…if you want them!
