“Right on El Medano's sandy beach, this family-run hotel puts you directly onto Tenerife's longest natural stretch of sand. I think its best feature is the blend of wellness amenities-saltwater pools, on-site spa, yoga-with access to the island's famed windsurfing scene. Add to that convenient airport proximity and free parking, and it makes a compelling base for exploring the island.”
