Top hotels in Tenerife

Want to be near the action in Playa de las Americas but far away enough to relax? Cue a stay at Spring Hotel Vulcano. This place is a few minutes’ walk from the beach and buzz of the resort, but it’s tucked away enough to dial things down a notch when it’s time to switch off. The pool scene’s top of its game, too – think comfy loungers, cocktails and chilled-out energy. Oh, and one of its huge pools is heated in winter, so you’re sorted for swims when you’re steering clear of the cold back home. A pair of infinity pools are on hand for adults to relax, too.

Hungry? Las Salinas restaurant showcases seasonal food, buffet-style, with show cooking to keep things lively. And if you pay a bit extra you can head to the Calma Terrace for an open-air brunch, a long lunch or cocktails in the afternoon into evening. The hotel even has a click and collect service, so you can order a dish from the menu and take it wherever you like – poolside, in your room, in a chill-out area or on the beach.

This adults-only gem is nestled into the cliffside in Los Cristianos. Every room here comes with ocean views – either full or limited – so you can wake up to vistas of the sea. The blue views continue with the two pools. One is heated in winter and both are dotted with comfy sun loungers and parasols. The best bit? The waiter-call buttons mean you don’t have to leave your lounger for a drink. Hello, full relaxation mode.

When you finally want to stretch your legs, there’s plenty to do – from aquafit to wine tasting. The food here’s a real treat, too. At dinner, you can expect juicy steak, fresh prawns and local specialities at the buffet. Or you can try the à la carte restaurant. At lunch, there’s a tasting menu, tapas and show cooking to look forward to.
