THE LAND OF A THOUSAND EXPERIENCES

Forget the Tenerife you thought you knew. This shape-shifting island, the largest of the Canary Islands, has swapped its former image for a more wild and natural side. As a result, it’s now revelling in its new status as the place that’s got it all. Carnival celebrations, unique history and natural wonders are just some of the treasures in store. The sun, sand and sangria remain but visitors have discovered its alternative attractions, from whale watching in the Atlantic to climbing Mount Teide and kayaking off footprint-free volcanic coves. The land of a thousand experiences indeed. Soak up every magical moment from the comfort of your luxurious home-from-home, where delicious cuisine and fun-filled facilities await.

FOOD & DRINK IN TENERIFE

Come hungry, come thirsty: Tenerife has plenty of culinary treats in store. Discover a diverse cuisine that reflects the island’s cultural melting pot, which blends African, Latin, and Spanish influences – to delicious effect. We don’t have enough space to tell you all our local favourites, but highlights include papas arrugadas (wrinkled potatoes), cooked in salt water and best eaten smothered in various mojos (sauces), and its cheeses. Naturally, the island doesn’t stint on oceanic delights: expect to eat lots of garlic-flecked fresh fish, grilled with local herbs, and seafood, served raw or cooked to perfection. Crack open a Canarian wine and tuck in. Getting your five-a-day is a pleasure, thanks to the abundance of tropical fruit that grows here (papaya, mangoes, bananas) and many mealtimes end on a high with a shot of Ron Miel, the local honey rum. You are on holiday after all…
