Tenerife, Guia de Isora
Are there any places more prestigious than a Ritz Carlton? We think not. This is the luxury hotel of your imagination. Everything - and by that we mean everything - is taken care of. Put simply, The Ritz-Carlton, Abama has it all. Five-star luxury, grand Moroccan inspired architecture, oodles of glamour and extensive grounds. A stay here transports you much further than Tenerife.
The Ritz-Carlton, Abama is both luxurious and classic and offers much to travellers who leave nothing to chance. Rising out of the landscape like a pink palace, the huge resort is set back from the beach, but this only adds to its superlativeness. The vast gardens, where you’ll find seven swimming pools, are an oasis of calm and offer lots of cosy corners. If you do want to dive into the Atlantic Ocean, then a quick walk or ride on the panoramic funicular will get you there in less than 10 minutes.
Unsurprisingly, food and drink are exceptional - there is a huge range of dining options including two Michelin starred restaurants. As with any island, seafood is a must, and there’s a great emphasis on tapas. Carefully placed bars mean that sundowners take on a literal meaning when you take your evening sangria. Every moment of your stay here is an experience second to none. Enjoy every minute.
The Ritz-Carlton, Abama is fast becoming one of the top food destinations in Europe. And we can see why! Ten bars and restaurants offer a plethora of choice from sun-drenched beach lunches, pool treats to exceptional Michelin starred tasting menus.

The ultimate sensory experience that will indulge your taste buds with a picnic prepared by two Michelin-starred restaurant M.B, which you can enjoy while an expert astronomer teaches you the basics of stargazing, looking up at Tenerife’s award-winning dark sky.
Tenerife does nothing by halves. She is the Canaries grande dame – rich in diverse landscapes which go from soaring mountains to black-sand beaches – the island benefits from an almost constantly beating sun. If there was one place where one should venture beyond the beach it is here - nature lovers should make the 30-minute drive to the UNESCO Teide National Park where you’ll find the snow-capped Teide volcano. This is Spain’s highest mountain and has three hiking routes to its top. If you can manage the 9 km (or six-hour) walk to the top, you’ll be well rewarded, however, the less hardy might want to take the eight-minute cable car ride to admire the spectacular views.
You’ll need to don your best explorer’s hat to get the full island experience in Tenerife. Trips inland will surprise you with remote mountain villages and charming ancient towns. Once back on the seafront you are just as likely to find cultured port settlements as much as elegant upscale ones, each brimming with its personal style. The west of the island, where The Ritz-Carlton, Abama is located, is all about laid back luxury.
For real star-spotting you’re in the right place. The island is an official Starlight Tourist Destination due to its low light pollution and clear, nighttime skies. So popular is the pastime that The Ritz-Carlton, Abama even installed its own observatory (that houses the world’s biggest telescope). Book yourself in for a session, order a gourmet picnic and give yourself an opportunity for some proper night sky gazing.
