Beaches in Tenerife

Holidaymakers flock to Tenerife's pristine coastline each year for a good reason! Our Tenerife villas are located south and west of this stunning volcanic island, where various amenities and water sports accompany long stretches of golden sand beaches.

Las Vistas Beach

Located in the popular resort of Los Cristianos, this beach is ideal for families, as it has all the amenities you'd expect. With sun loungers everywhere, inflatables in the water and shallow areas for children, this beach will offer hours of family fun.

El Medano Beach

Tourists flock to the breezy town of El Medano to enjoy water sports, including wind and kite surfing. It's also an excellent place for families, but it does get busy. If you're looking for a remote, private beach, this isn't the one for you – but it offers plenty of activities.

Playa de la Arena Beach

For something a little unorthodox, visit the volcanic black sands on Playa de la Arena's beach, which is one of the best and cleanest. It never fails to impress, and the dramatic black sands are perhaps the most Instagram-worthy in Tenerife.

Playa Torviscas Beach

If you prefer the finer things, you won't find a more luxurious beach than in Playa Torviscas. Its golden sands and crystal blue sea make for the perfect setting and swim in the calm waters.

Nightlife in Tenerife

Take your pick from sophisticated evenings and animated nights out in some of Tenerife's most popular resorts. Enjoy late-night dining followed by a cocktail or two in the chic resort of Costa Adeje, or watch live bands and flamenco dancing in nearby Playa de Las Americas.

Exploring the nightlife of Tenerife, with its diverse offerings ranging from traditional Canarian customs to modern entertainment, is an essential part of any villa holiday in Tenerife.

Monkey Beach Club (Playa de las Américas)

Located in the vibrant heart of Playa de las Américas, Monkey Beach Club sets the stage for a night of sophistication and glamour.

La Terraza del Mare (Costa Adeje)

Perched atop the cliffs of Costa Adeje, La Terraza del Mare offers unparalleled views of the coastline and beyond. Indulge in gourmet Mediterranean cuisine at sunset, then linger into the night as the venue transforms into a chic lounge, complete with ambient lighting and a curated selection of fine wines.

Wine & Cheese

This delightful urban locale nestled in the center of Santa Cruz de Tenerife offers a wonderful opportunity to unwind. While there are other noteworthy wine bars in the city, such as Vinoteca El Gusto Por el Vino, Wine and Cheese stands out for its authenticity, particularly due to its charming cobblestone setting near the 17th-century church of St. Francis of Assisi. Take a moment to explore the breathtaking baroque architecture and secure a spot at one of the tables on the verdant terrace to enjoy a glass of Rioja paired with a simple cheese platter.

Food and Drink in Tenerife

From Michelin-starred dining destinations to intimate trattorias, Tenerife offers a wealth of culinary experiences that cater to all varying palates. Indulge in innovative cuisine, impeccable service, and breathtaking surroundings as you go on a culinary journey like no other in this coastal paradise.

Local markets occur weekly in many of Tenerife's towns and villages, where you can stock up on fresh vegetables, meat and fish to cook a family feast at your Tenerife villa.

Make sure to sample traditional Spanish food such as paella, tapas and fresh seafood at most restaurants, and try some of the local Canarian dishes such as Mojo Sauce and Papas Arrugadas.

History and Culture in Tenerife

Tenerife is an island of two halves, with most tourist resorts resting on the south and eastern coastlines. Although many adore Tenerife's golden sands, the island's inner scenery is no less impressive, dominated by Mount Teide – the highest point in Spain.

The historical and cultural landmarks offer a captivating glimpse into the diverse heritage of Tenerife, from its ancient pyramids and colonial architecture to its volcanic landscapes and maritime history. Whether exploring UNESCO World Heritage Sites or strolling through historic towns, visitors are sure to be mesmerised by the island's rich tapestry of culture and history.

Parque Nacional del Teide

Tenerife isn't just about beaches and dancing from dusk till dawn; it's also an infamous UNESCO site. Teide National Park spans over ten miles and sits 3800 metres above sea level. The volcanic crater is a true marvel, and a cable car ride takes you to the highest point, where you can appreciate impressive views.

San Cristóbal de La Laguna

If you love visiting old towns, then San Cristóbal de La Laguna is definitely worth your time. It doesn't have any beaches, so it's ideal for escaping the tourists and enjoying an authentic part of Tenerife's history. Featuring a range of historic buildings, including churches, you can walk down the cobbled streets and explore some public buildings.

Pyramids of Güímar

Located in the municipality of Güímar, the Pyramids of Güímar are a collection of six stepped pyramids believed to have been constructed by the Guanches, the indigenous people of Tenerife.

Santa Catalina Castle

In Garachico, in the northern part of southern Tenerife, Santa Catalina Castle is a 17th-century fortress built to defend against pirate attacks. It provides insight into the island's maritime history.
