The Piramides Martianez Mall shopping in El Puerto is not only very convenient. Portrayed below is the center, as it was for decades until it was greatly improved above all by its middle section around 2019 and early 2020. Don't miss its awesome new look and many more possibilities further down this page...
By the way by 2023, the popularity of this mall has definitely improved greatly thanks to its new architecture of a very clever designed first floor. It has also become a center for ideal entertainment, such as reality shows and Christmas as well as other events.

38400 Puerto de la Cruz-Spain

Mercadona Martianez supermarket deliveries to your home? Yes, in a restricted radius, such as, as far as Panoramica Garden Hotel Los Realejos, for example, provided you fill your shopping cart yourself within the shop. Hence, orders online are not yet possible. Kindly ask at the cash till if your address is suited for bringing your purchases.
You can now buy yummy freshly cooked take-away at Mercadona at very competitive prices to consume it on the premises.
Find the special place for it to the left of the pay-tills where microwave-ovens let you warm up the take-away food free of charge.
This new park a so called Parque Infantil Drago Siam Park2 looked very promising in May 2016. I have not seen it any more in 2023. Perhaps due to Corona? So will it come back? We shall see.
However, the bigger fun fair by the free Puerto Cruz Parking ground steals its show during the long summer holidays.
The park's following photos speak for themselves.
Obviously, this children playground or park is ideal for parents who shop in the mall.
News 2024: Unfortunately the playground was closed during the pandemic. Hopefully, it will be reopened soon, as it was popular.
Deichman Germany has opened a Calzado branch for shoe shopping in Puerto de la Cruz. You may notice a welcome change with lesser known brands, such as for hiking called Senderismo in Spanish. No English spoken there, so I mention it. I got myself some comforable winter booties with a warm fluffy inside to wear on rainy cool days at home, just in case Tenerife Winter will still come.
By the way, also new at Martianez shopping Center is a very well-stocked toy shop on the first floor.
More than one logo Centro Comercial Martianez is displayed at the mall, such as this one underground by the terminal for hotel buses. A time table for the hotel shuttle transport hangs on a wall. Most hotels that are not in the Puerto Cruz hub have such a service.
You find the Martianez Centro comercial bistro a few steps after passing the dry cleaner beside Mercadona.
The name of the dry cleaner is:
Stiro Tintoreria-Lavanderia
Centro de Planchado (ironing center)
Tel.: + 34 922 383100
The Martianez Mall has three levels. It's light and spacious. You can do its rounds within 15 minutes easily these days, as more than half of its 60 outlets have been closed since 2009. The Recession isn't the only culprit.
They say that people opened shops at El Trompo of La Orotava instead. Why? Much cheaper rents.
Pop into the following shop for gifts to take back overseas instead when you are in Masca.
Stradivarius Spanish fashion where rebates start in June. Stradivarius belongs to the Inditex group just like Zara Tenerife.
Boutiques are left that sell clothes, sports goods, shoes, leather goods, cosmetics, jewelry, tobacco articles, beach wear, designer perfumes, dried fruit and sweets per weight, toys and more. They all give you good customer service even on a Sunday. There are fashion chain stores, such as Springfield, a Burger King opened recently. More of this downtown mall is listed here.
La Licoreria which had fantastic sweet souvenirs is memory now.
Most important at the Piramides of Martianez is its Mercadona Supermarket which I highly recommend for fresh fish, especially the one in season. Unfortunately recently, Mercadona business hours on Sundays have stopped.
Shopping there for Euro 20 buys you free underground parking at the mall.
Many have their groceries delivered to their door steps by Mercadona for Euro 5. Tourists at the very popular Casablanca Apartments often do so too. They would even bring me groceries to my doorsteps while Hotel Panoramic Garden is the delivery boundery of my suburb of Los Realejos.
The revamping of this shopping Mall must have happened at the end of 2019 and/or beginning of 2020.The change turned it into a miracle of surprising architecture. Now, it looks like a much more impressive mall. Its top floor was almost totally restructured by giving it as much as triple the height by the looks of it. This allows for much light, air, space and, not to forget, visibility from far.
The center piece is almost like an open podium that can be accessed from various angles and terraces. This makes it ideal for musical shows, for example. It allows the spectators to gather all around feeling free to dance and mingle. Passers-by from the nearby streets and Rambla are attracted from as far as Avenida Bethencourt y Molina, as sound travels far from the Piramides top floor platform. Nevertheless, much surprising space remains for large as well as for smaller outlets where clothes fashion is sold. Claustrophobia is impossible to feel in this most modern space of a mall, while lunching bargain food on its terraces may feel like a very welcome treat. An exhibition of the Summer carnival of Puerto has been introduced for the first time mentioned on its Tenerife carnival agenda of September 2022.
Hot Tip when to shop at the Martianez:
Do your daily shopping at the Martianez Mall on the way home from Lido/ Lago Martianez...
The detour doesn't take more than 5 minutes on foot down Venezuela Road across the palm lined Rambla which by the way ends at the Martianez surf beach
