Security Standards Compliance
In the Canary Islands we work intensively every day so that you can visit us with the maximum conditions of security, hygiene and quality.
In order to preserve the low epidemiological incidence of the archipelago and to guarantee the sustainability of the tourist activity, it is essential that all visitors over 12 years old, who do not come from the Canary Islands, prove by means of a certificate that a diagnostic test of active infection by COVID-19 has been carried out with a negative result in the last 72 hours and approved by the health authorities.
This certificate is necessary to access this and any other tourist accommodation on the islands. It can be presented in digital form or on paper and must state the date and time of the test, the identity of the individual tested, the authorized center responsible for verification and its nature, as well as the negative result.
Excluded from presenting COVID-19 proof when entering the Canary Islands are persons who are in transit in a Canary port or airport with a final destination in another country or part of the national territory:
- Persons who prove that they have been outside the Autonomous Community of the Canary Islands for less than 72 hours prior to arrival, regardless of their place of residence.

At Dunas Hotels & Resorts we will have to deny access to the person who does not comply with the conditions previously described. Exceptionally, and in the case that he or she demonstrates his or her availability to take a diagnostic test, we will inform you of the nearest authorized center and will allow access and overnight stay the time necessary to obtain the results. Until then, you will not be able to leave the hotel.
