Tenerife's 9 most beautiful hotels

How can you resist the Royal River Hotel's thousand and one pools? You'll have no choice but to succumb to the turquoise pools, the views of the Atlantic Ocean, the cushions and mattresses placed throughout the hotel and the fabulous gourmet cuisine. From your room, with its indigenous and bohemian inspiration, you have access to your private pool, 3 bars, 4 restaurants and a fitness centre.

Just a stone's throw from the beach and a dip in the Atlantic Ocean, the Iberostar Grand El Mirador hotel offers you a stay of rest, comfort and luxury.

In this magnificent citrus-coloured establishment, the beauty of the Canary Islands takes centre stage. Lime plaster, stonework and curved ceramics are the order of the day.

A true pleasure for the eyes and the body, this hotel offers a child-free stay, so that tranquillity goes hand in hand with a late breakfast by the sea.

El Mirador has 3 restaurants, a heated swimming pool and a piano bar.

It's hard to resist the striking contrast of the Ritz Abama in Tenerife. Its coral-coloured exterior walls make the sky even bluer and the cacti even greener.

It's in this Mexican-inspired setting that your stay in the Canaries can begin.

The programme includes swimming, fresh fish, massages, cocktails... and more. Enjoy exceptional service in a renowned establishment like the Ritz-Carlton. At the top of a small hill, the hotel train takes you to the private beach whenever you want.

Looking to treat yourself? The hotel has 8 restaurants, including 2 with Michelin stars.

If you prefer to travel with the family, the Bahia Del Duque is one of the few hotels on this list that pampers children with epic playrooms.

Relax at the spa or in one of the many turquoise pools while your children make new friends in the games room or in the hotel's enchanted forest.

For your comfort and the success of your holiday, the Bahia Del Duque offers beautifully decorated and equipped rooms.

The hotel offers a range of activities for young and old alike, from yoga and aerobics classes to whale watching trips.

You can enjoy a meal in one of the 8 restaurants, a cocktail in one of the 7 bars and a few rounds of golf on the private golf course.

Swimming pools, swimming pools and more swimming pools!

One for children, one heated in the wellness centre, two nestling in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean... If that's not enough to convince you, the Iberostar Selection Anthelia is just 100 metres from one of Tenerife's most beautiful beaches: Playa de Fañabe.

Each room is sumptuously decorated, air-conditioned and equipped for maximum comfort. The hotel has a spa and a restaurant specialising in Italian cuisine. The Teide Volcano Park is less than an hour's drive away.

In an island and Mediterranean setting of white lime and rounded buildings, Dreams Jardin Tropical Resort offers you the chance to disconnect from your everyday life.

Float in the clear turquoise water of one of the pools, or relax over a cocktail in one of the hotel bars.

The lush, tropical garden is visible from all the balconies of the tastefully decorated rooms.

From the resort, you can walk for a few minutes to take a dip in the Atlantic Ocean, or take your children to the Thai-inspired Siam Park water park.

As well as being a top-class hotel, which we mentioned earlier in this list, the Bahia Del Duque offers its guests luxury villas.

Private swimming pool, views of the Atlantic Ocean, 24-hour room service, private parking, bar and restaurant are all on the menu for your stay in one of the villas.

What's more, you have access to your own fitness room at the heart of this 5-star accommodation. If you prefer salt water, you are just a short walk from Playa El Duque, Playa Enramada and Playa de Fanabe.

An airport shuttle can be arranged with reception.

With a seaside resort atmosphere, the Flamingo Boutique hotel offers flats dressed in white and blue. You can enjoy the swimming pool, overlooked from the balcony of your room.

This stylish resort also offers suites with private pools and barbecues, and is just a short stroll from the beautiful Playa de La Pinta, where you can enjoy the surrounding restaurants and bars.

The flats are fully equipped and you have access to the spa and fitness centre. Flamingo Suites Boutique Hotel offers a bicycle and car rental service.

Views of the Teide volcano, sunsets on a mattress by the pool, massages, a spa and oriental decor in the colours of summer... If all this appeals to you as much as it does to us, then the Royal Garden Villas is the ideal accommodation.

As luxurious as it is beautiful, this 5-star hotel will pamper you during your holiday in Tenerife.

All rooms have a whirlpool bath with jets, a metre-wide television and a fully-equipped kitchen.
