Hotel Mar y Sol ****

Spa & Sport Hotel Mar y Sol
The construction of the Mar y Sol reflects authentic Spanish-style architecture. It is built on two and in places three levels, and is accessible throughout by lifts. The few steps you come across within the complex can be avoided using the existing ramps.

The apartment hotel is situated approximately 400m away from the 8 km long sea-promenade and is constructed on slightly elevated ground and built on different levels around an impressive pool area. Because the way down to the sea is sloping, it is very easy to reach the beach and the center of town.

Returning to the hotel may present problems for guests with restricted mobility but this can be overcome by using either an electric wheelchair or our free shuttle-service.

    On the island is also a dialysis Center that is open for tourists.

    Having a disability does not mean you have to miss out on some of the island’s best leisure excursions and sports activities, as Tenerife’s tourist board and local sports projects have worked together to make accessible trips to even the most inaccessible places.

    Teide National Park:
    There is one completely accessible route – Roque de Caramujo Path; the Alto de Guamazo path is accessible with the help of a friend or guide. There are several practicable viewpoints, and the botanical gardens and visitors center are also accessible.

    Tenerife’s natural routes and paths:
    A holiday in Tenerife does not have to stop at the beach and day trips to the coastal resorts and capital. Aside from a trip to the Teide National Park, there are several recommended routes, which take you through some of the island’s most stunning and natural landscapes.

    One that has a fully accessible route is the Sendero de Agua Garcia. Situated in the Agua Garcia forest in the region of Tacoronte, you find this fully adapted pathway to 850m. There is an average slope of 6% and five resting spots. Thereafter the rest of the pedestrian route is practicable, as is the car park.

    Transport
    There are two companies on Tenerife that offer specifically-adapted cars for wheelchair user.
    There are several taxi companies that offer vehicles with access ramps for wheelchairs.

    “Playa de las Vistas”
    Tenerife’s beaches are extremely well-equipped and barrier-free to all visitors. The region of Arona especially Playa de las Vistas, has won an award for its accessible beach facilities.

    Los Cristianos boasts Europe’s largest barrier-free pedestrian sea promenade, which runs for seven kilometers. It’s beach is completely barrier-free with accessible walkways and routes, wooden fixed and roll-up pathways, entrance ramps (6%), accessible toilets and changing rooms, aquatic chairs and crutches, sea accompaniment and amphibian wheelchair services.

    Whale & Dolphin Watching
    These excursions leave every day from various ports in the south. There are two boats with accessibility for wheelchairs. Bottlenose Dolphins and Pilot Whales are the most numerous but it is also possible to spot others, such as Sperm or White Whales.

    Aqua Land
    In Costa Adeje makes up an excellent combined leisure and entertainment offer. This is the only Water Park and Dolphinarium in Tenerife and is situated in one of the most tropical tourist destinations of the island.

    Guimar Pyramids
    In the south of Tenerife are a complex of pyramid structures astronomically positioned by the winter and summer solstice.
    The park offers its visitors a chance to contemplate these amazing constructions, a surprising resemblance of the architecture to those found in Egypt, Cerdena, Sicily, South America and other parts of the world.

    Loro Parque
    Located in Puerto de la Cruz, its facilities include 135,000 square meters, which means that they can house the big and the small. Although when it first opened, this theme park received its fame due to its magnificent collection of parrots, the largest in the world, today it provides a home to a number of species that live in this subtropical park which reproduces their natural habitat.

    Parque Las Aquilas – Jungle Park
    Is a fantastic zoological and botanical park with 75,000 m² of jungle and over 500 animals.
