Puerto de la Cruz has two markets in our listings, and both are street markets rather than a covered food hall. Between them there is trading on Wednesday and on Saturday, with usual hours of 08:00 to 14:00, so a market morning here is something you plan before breakfast rather than after lunch.
Staying in the old town around Casco Antiguo puts you within walking distance of the markets and the seafront, which matters when doors open at 08:00. The Hotel Monopol sits in the middle of that area.
If you prefer more facilities, Hotel Botanico is a short drive from the centre.

Street markets in Puerto de la Cruz
Every market listed for the town is an outdoor street market, set up on open ground and taken down the same day. The larger of the two runs to around 25 stalls, selling clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, handicrafts and antiques, laid out on trestles rather than behind permanent counters. Shade is whatever the pitch offers, so a hat is worth more than a shopping list.
Because the two markets sit in the same town, a stay of a few days can take in both without a car. The Santa Cruz de Tenerife province page covers the rest of the island.

Hours cluster at 08:00 to 14:00. Stalls are at their fullest in the first couple of hours, and by around midday sellers start packing crates back into vans, so aim to arrive well before the end time rather than close to it.
