4.6/5 based on 49 reviews
Medium sized school

Don Quijote Tenerife is all about a nice balance between learning and leisure, in the middle of beautiful Puerto de la Cruz. The school is in a traditional Canarian building with lots of light and spacious, colorful classrooms, making it a warm and cozy place for international students. During breaks you can relax in the lounge area or go outside to feel the fresh air on the beautiful central patio with plants and benches.

Don Quijote is located near the black volcanic sands of Playa Martíanez and just a 2-minute walk from Lake Martiánez. So it is super convenient to discover the real Canarian culture, food and nightlife. Would you like to know more about the area? Then you can take part in the school's optional activities and outings, such as trips to Mount Teide, Anaga Rural Park and La Gomera Island, or tours of the Loro Park Zoo, Botanical Garden and Casa del Water.

At Don Quijote Tenerife, every day is a new adventure, full of exciting experiences.

I took a three-week super intensive course in this school and I have to say it was one of the best experiences of my life. The school is very nice, at the sea side, with a nice atrium where students and teachers meet, and classrooms branching off it. The best thing about this school, however, are its teachers. All are language professionals with degrees in languages and pedagogics, but most importantly, they are interesting people...

All are language professionals with degrees in languages and pedagogics, but most importantly, they are interesting people with a gift for teaching and an incredible sense of humour. I felt relaxed very quickly. This is not to say it was easy: I felt very tired every day, but learning in relaxation and with humour is a wonderful experience that I can recommend to everybody.

She was a student of Don Quixote in Tenerife. It was a fantastic experience. The teachers are very friendly and professional. The weather is great. The landscape is incredible. The school is located in front of the ocean. Salomé always gave me advice about food, hiking routes, etc. It is the best option to learn Spanish and enjoy life. I miss it!

I had a great time learning Spanish here. When I arrived I had only signed up for one week, but ended up staying for 3.
It's obvious that the teachers here have a true passion for helping you learn and grow, and really enjoy what they do here. Which creates a very fun and positive learning environment, even when you are finding some things difficult they really take the time to help you understand.

I was really interested in taking lessons in this Spanish language school. Such a pity that they are not open during the hours they say they are. Wen there twice to check the place out at 4 pm, nobody there and they communicate they are open until 5 pm. Waste of my time!!
