Beyond the resort:

Shopping

The Plaza del Duque shopping mall is an exclusive retail centre, a short drive from the hotel, with over 60 shops selling designer clothing, jewellery, accessories and perfumes. It also has several restaurants, cafes and a kids’ play area. The hotel offers free daily shuttles.

The oriental-themed Siam Mall is an open air shopping centre on two levels, with 70 shops set around terraces and parks. Located about 10 minutes’ drive from the resort, it has free parking and a kids’ area.

El Teide National Park

At 3718 metres, El Teide, a dormant volcano, is not only the highest peak in Tenerife, but in the whole of Spain. The entire area is a national park and one of the top sights on the island, for its unique landscape of craters, vents, volcanoes and rivers of petrified lava. There are two visitor’s centres, several refreshment areas and trails for those wanting to explore on foot.

If you go to the top, take warm clothing as it’s cold at that altitude, but the views over the small villages and down to the sea are spectacular. It is possible to drive most of the way, and then take a cable car to the very top - but be aware it is not recommended for children under 2 years of age to go to this altitude.

Los Gigantes

Plunge down up to 30 metres below the surface of the ocean without even getting wet. State of the art submarines are equipped with big viewing windows and tour guides talk you through the marine creatures you pass on your cruise. Not suitable for children under 2.

Masca

Perhaps the most charming town on Tenerife, it’s worth the winding drive to get to this colourful and characterful little place in the mountains. Situated on a rocky plateau it offers views of the countryside and a very authentic Canarian vibe. For the energetic, the hike from Los Gigantes to Masca is tough but rewards you with exceptional views and scenery.
