There is so much more to Tenerife than just package vacation holidays. The island also has luxurious qualities, in which you can expect award winning-restaurants, and a plethora of five-star hotels to choose from. When flying to Tenerife, make sure that you book an airport transfer in advance, to reduce the time spent waiting in queues and extend the duration of relaxation on this idyllic island. Here are some of the best places to visit in Tenerife if you expect luxury during your stay.
Costa Adeje
You know a resort is of premium quality when it is a favourite with the likes of the Beckhams and other a-list celebrities. Costa Adeje is one of Tenerife’s most famous resorts, and it appears to be bursting at the seams with upscale eateries, designer shops, and an array of beaches with crystal-clear water. In comparison to other resorts on the Island, it is considerably more upmarket, making it the perfect destination to relax and unwind or set up camp for the day.
The Ritz-Carlton
The Ritz-Carlton needs no introduction. It is regarded as one of the most luxurious hotels on the island and features stunning and unique architecture, that screams luxury and style. If staying in this five-star hotel isn’t enough of an incentive, there are also two Michelin-star restaurants that you can eat from.
Village of Masca
Located on the West of the Island, you will find the Village of Masca – a journey that is filled with twists and turns on the drive there. Not for the faint-hearted, but most definitely worth the view, it is situated on a steep mountainside with houses that appear to cling to cliffs. The location boasts terrific panoramic views, perfect for avid photographers or those in touch with social media. A popular spot for tourists to come to visit, it is home to only 90 locals that still choose to live there, regardless of the remote location; despite this, many restaurants and shops have now begun to open here to accommodate visitors.
Underwater Winery
What could be more enjoyable than wine tasting? Underwater wine tasting is exactly as it would appear; sit in a beautiful underwater pod and sample a different selection of wines from across the island – made by locals of course. Not only this, but it is a great opportunity to learn more about the marine life that Tenerife has to offer, and how this contributes to the local economy and lifestyle of locals. Wine is often put into barrels that lay upon the ocean floor, so this is a great time to ask any questions and discover how the ocean can contribute to the process of creating the wine we know and love!
