Area Description

We have a definite soft spot for Tenerife. It’s the largest and most popular of the Canary Islands, and attracts over four million visitors each year. Although it’s just off the north coast of Africa, it still has a very Spanish feel. The volcanic landscape is spectacular, but the weather is definitely the island’s biggest selling point. The island enjoys warm sunny winters and long hot summer days so for golf holidays Tenerife is the perfect all year round destination.

There are six golf courses on the island, five of them in the south, and all Bill Goff hotels work in close co-operation with them. We’ve stayed in every kind of accommodation on our golf holidays in Tenerife, from self catering apartments to luxury four star hotels and had a great time everywhere we’ve been.

The island is dominated by Mount Teide, which is Spain’s highest peak and the centrepiece of a National Park. It towers above the island separating the cooler, greener north from the desert-like south. The beaches are a little unusual in that most of them are black volcanic sand while the sea is warm and beautifully clear.

For top class all year round golf holidays Tenerife is the ideal destination. Most of the golf courses and accommodation on our golf holidays in Tenerife are featured around the bustling resorts of Playa de Las Americas and Los Cristianos.

Playa de Las Americas is situated in Adeje, a small town on the south western coast. Whenever we’re there we spend a lot of time relaxing on the beach or enjoying the wide range of water sports and other activities. It’s the liveliest resort on the island, with a variety of nightlife. In recent years the Costa Adeje coast has undergone a major hotel redevelopment. They’re now all of a very high standard, which means there is a great deal of competition between hotels - and that has to be good news for customers. The golf is good too, with two championship golf courses at Costa Adeje and Golf Las Americas.

Los Cristianos is part of Arona, one of the most important tourist areas in the island. It’s a coastal fishing village, and it has managed to preserve some of its traditional nature, if you know where to look. We tend to choose Los Cristianos when we’re in the mood to see Tenerife’s sophisticated side. We’ve enjoyed some great times in the resort’s selection of bars and restaurants and there are also some lovely pavement cafes around the harbour.

For golf holidays Tenerife has a unique environment - let’s face it, there are not many places where you can play 18 holes in the morning, then relax on a beach, stroll through banana plantations or climb a volcano in the afternoon! Do yourself a favour and give our golf holidays in Tenerife a try.
