Natural beauty and endless possibilities in the Canary Islands!
The timeless island retreat of The Ritz-Carlton Abama, on the southwest coast of Tenerife, benefits from the year-round sun and average winter temperatures at 23°C, due to its location just 200 miles from the West African coast. So, the warmth and relaxation of a winter sun break are easily achievable without a long-haul flight.
Set in a magnificent 400-acre estate fronting the ocean, The Ritz-Carlton Abama offers an oasis of verdant subtropical space at the heart of a stunning ‘Finca’ setting of natural beauty, volcanic landscapes, and panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean.
Guests can start the day with breakfast at the spectacular clifftop El Mirador Restaurant, followed by a morning hike to the top of Mount Teide, or lounge poolside during the sun-drenched days. The golden sandy beach is just steps away for guests to join the diving excursions or catamaran rental in the crystal clear waters. Abama Beach is one of the best spots to watch the sunset in Tenerife, with the Atlantic Ocean as the main stage and La Gomera Island on the horizon.
Also new for 2020, the timeless island retreat on the southwest coast of Tenerife has unveiled a semi-private ‘Villa Club’ concept ensuring guests have all the space they crave indoors and poolside too. Guests staying in the Villa Club will be assigned a sea or garden view room or suite in the two-floor, terracotta-hued Casitas. Each lane of Villas has its own pool for use by the limited number of residents. There are adult-only villas and dedicated family villa sections so guests can escape and relax in a style that suits them best. Each villa comes with a dedicated team of ambassadors to look after all guest needs with complimentary drinks, canapés, smoothies and juices served as part of the Villa Club package.
The Ritz-Carlton, Abama has long been recognized as a gastronomic destination, with Michelin-star options from Kabuki amongst its endless possibilities. A choice of venues includes both casual and formal dining spaces, from sun-drenched beach lunches, pool treats to exceptional tasting menus at dusk, ensuring a style of gastronomy to suit all tastes. Activities and experiences at the resort include the unique opportunity to see the night sky as never before while dining on a gourmet picnic, whale and dolphin watching on the Atlantic Ocean, and Cycling Friendly® routes straight from the resort.
The Ritz-Carlton Spa offers a chance of rest and relaxation with truly luxury pampering. Incorporating The Ritz-Carlton’s massage mastery, treatments harness endemic island elements and are inspired by the island’s El Teide Volcano. The 11-suite pampering oasis features the signature Roman Thermal Spa Circuit, Turkish Hammam as well as a fitness center with cardiovascular exercise machines and spinning bikes on the outdoor terrace.
