When you travel, your accommodations become your home from home. As such, choosing a hotel that meets your needs and fits your travel style is one of the most essential parts of any well-planned trip.

 

In that respect, the stunning island of Tenerife is an embarrassment of riches, with splendid stays ranging from intimate boutique inns to sumptuous seaside resorts, each offering a unique and personalised experience. Immerse yourself in a state-of-the-art spa designed to rejuvenate body and mind. Delight in meal after meal of exceptional Michelin-star cuisine. Or simply relax in a lush, tranquil garden with views of the Atlantic Ocean. It’s all on the menu at these exceptional Tenerife hotels and resorts that are redefining excellence in hospitality.

 

Royal Garden Villas & Spa

 

The concept of ‘grand luxury’ comes to life at this suave hotel in Costa Adeje. Having claimed second place in the Best Boutique Hotel in Spain category at the 2021 Spain Luxury Hotel Awards, Royal Garden Villas & Spa will transform your holiday into an unforgettable experience from the moment you enter your spacious villa. In fact, this hush-hush jewel features no more than 28 palatial villas, each with its own panoramic terrace, solarium and private pool.

 

Once installed in your chambers, enjoy a pampering session at the Golden Pond Spa or sit down to a dinner of updated Canarian cuisine by chef Patry García, accompanied by a bottle from the hotel’s enviable wine collection.

Royal Hideaway Corales Suites

 

Located in La Caleta de Adeje, the Royal Hideaway Corales Suites is a five-star GL hotel, considered one of the 25 best in Spain according to TripAdvisor. The innovative resort complex, designed by architect Leonardo Omar, is shaped like a boat and inspired by coral formations – a design so original, it won first place in the Architectural Design category at the 2021 World Luxury Hotel Awards.

 

Here, 114 artistically appointed apartments and suites offer direct views of La Enramada Beach, making for a highly memorable stay. The hotel’s haute cuisine repertoire also stands out, boasting an impressive three Michelin stars among its prestigious restaurants El Rincón de Juan Carlos, Il Bocconcino and San-Hô.

 

Royal River Luxury Hotel

 

Crowned the ‘Best Hotel in Spain’ at the Fijet España awards in 2022, the Royal River, also located in Costa Adeje, is a luxury landmark in Tenerife. This adults-only resort features a spectacular collection of 50 villas, each with its own private pool. Reserve a River Villa for direct access to the enchanting river pool with its tropical greenery, or book one of the romantic Lagoon Villas, which take their inspiration from African art and culture.

 

Further treats for the senses come in the form of fine dining at the hotel’s world-class restaurants, as well as rejuvenation in the Serenity Spa, a true temple of well-being.

 

Boutique Hotel San Roque

 

In the northwestern town of Garachico, the Boutique Hotel San Roque is a self-described “exclusive experience in a small, great hotel.” This stately home, formerly known as Casa Ponte, is situated in a historic building that houses just 20 rooms, each adorned with contemporary art and furnishings that complement the sophisticated traditional architecture. Across the public and private spaces, guests can spot exclusive pieces by renowned Spanish and foreign artists such as Susy Gómez, José Noguero and Carmen Calvo – making this hotel something of a work of art in itself.

 

Aesthetics aside, Boutique Hotel San Roque is differentiated for its exclusive facilities, like the exquisite Anthurium restaurant, as well as its commitment to first-rate service and personalised attention for every guest.

 

Tivoli La Caleta Tenerife Resort

 

On the shores of Costa Adeje, this five-star resort invites travellers to enjoy a pampering experience in southern Tenerife. Blessed with astounding views of the mountains and the sea, the Tivoli La Caleta Tenerife Resort enhances its offerings with elegant rooms and terrace suites, as well as the renowned Anantara Spa – perfect for unwinding with treatments from both Eastern and Western wellness traditions.

The three swimming pools, an exclusive SEEN beach club and a well-rounded culinary range – created by the famous chef Olivier Da Costa – combine to create a superlative stay for those seeking a luxurious seaside escape.

 

Gran Meliá Palacio de Isora

 

Located on the beachfront in Guía de Isora, with incredible views of La Gomera island, the five-star Gran Meliá Palacio de Isora resort exudes elegance from every angle. The elite RedLevel service is unparalleled among its facilities, including a personal butler and access to an exclusive private lounge area. The resort is also home to a 2,000sq m Spa by Clarins and the largest saltwater infinity pool in Europe – a luxury guaranteed to provide hours of both fun and relaxation.

 

If you’re looking to explore Tenerife and its charms, the Gran Meliá Palacio de Isora proposes a wide range of tours and activities, from taking a paragliding flight for a bird’s-eye view of the island, to combining astronomy and gastronomy on an expert-guided stargazing evening complete with dinner. A true feast for the senses.
