Tenerife holidays
Tenerife holidays are a big Brit hit, with the mighty Mount Teide waiting to wow and playful resorts like Playa de las Americas serving up fun in the sun all year round. The action-packed south is where much-loved resorts come alive with vibrant beaches, bar-lined strips and tax-free shops to give you that ultimate holiday feeling. And kids young and old will adore the Thai-inspired thrills at the world-famous Siam Park waterpark. But follow the lush landscape north to explore the great outdoors and quaint colonial towns for a taste of the real Tenerife. Looking for something different? Stargazing, wine tasting and wellness retreats are all on the menu too.Popular Tenerife holiday resorts

An island of two halves
South Tenerife is all soft sand, warm turquoise waters and lively resorts like Playa de las Americas, Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos. Things are much greener in the north, where you’ll find lush plants, forests and the pretty resort of Puerto de la Cruz, as well as the capital Santa Cruz. Not to mention the island’s home to Mount Teide – Spain’s highest peak.
By day and by night
Tenerife’s year-round tropical climate means days here are spent outside. The beaches are geared up for lounging, water sports and midday beers, but there are lots of golf courses and theme parks if you’d prefer. When the sun goes down, live shows, al fresco bars and budget-friendly restaurants are what you can expect. The neon-lit strip on Playa de Las Americas is as buzzy as they come or try Costa Adeje if chic cocktail bars are up your street.Local goodies
Not only is Tenerife a tangle of boutiques and retailers to make any savvy shopper swoon, it’s a pantry of local specialities waiting to be tried and purchased. Cheese, honey, mojo sauce – you name it, this island’s got flavours to pack a punch in every dish. Don’t miss papas arrugadas, wrinkly potatoes that are found on most menus!Tenerife resorts
Playa De Las Americas
As one of Tenerife’s best and busiest resorts, Playa De Las Americas holidays are always a crowd pleaser.
Costa Adeje
Families and couples alike can expect great food, classy shopping and a touch of glitz on a Costa Adeje holiday.
Los Cristianos
With three beaches and a lively harbour to show off, you’ll quickly learn that these perks make Los Cristianos a favourite.
Playa Paraiso
With seaside fun guaranteed, it’s no surprise that this sun-soaked scene is great for everyone.
Playa de la Arena
South of Los Gigantes, Playa de la Arena has a laid-back vibe, where swaying palm trees contrast beautifully against the beach’s black-sand shore.
Puerto de la Cruz
Touches of traditional Spain merge with island charms here in piece-of-paradise Puerto de la Cruz.
Golf del Sur
The clue’s in the name – this resort’s big on its golf. It’s a hole in one for scenery too, with its rocky coastline and sweeping sea views.
El Medano
This soulful resort beckons surfers and sunbathers to its beachfront.
Chayofa (Los Cristianos)
Epitomising traditional Canarian village, the green spaces of Chayofa are much quieter than its busier resort siblings.
Callao Salvaje
Not far from the bustling resorts of Costa Adeje and Playa de Las Americas, the petite town of Callao Salvaje occupies a small spot on Tenerife’s rugged west coast.
Los Gigantes
Overshadowing the town and harbour, the huge rock centrepiece of the resort, ‘The Giants’, shows off textured layers of epic volcanic rock.
Guia de Isora
This west coast wonder is all about sunshine hours.
Beaches
Tenerife’s beaches are legendary, and when you set your eyes on the soft white sand, twinkling emerald waters and swaying palm trees, you’ll soon see why. You’ll find many thriving tourist spots with quaint, café-lined promenades and plenty of prime places to watch the sun go down.

Nightlife
Tenerife has got nightlife as laid-back or revved up as you want it. Playa de las Americas rightfully wears the partying-till-dawn crown. But like the island’s other resorts, it’s also a place for friendly bars, discos and restaurants where you can take your kids, so you won’t be disappointed.
