Christmas in Santa Cruz de Tenerife


A special Christmas, that’s what everybody wants for their family and friends. The most importance of this time is to have enough time to celebrate it with family and friends. To celebrate a special Christmas, it is important to have an idea or theme to organize an authentic Christmas holiday.

Our suggestion, is to celebrate the Christmas holidays in a warm destination, where you can enjoy a few days of December on the beach, with a swim in the sea and sunbathe under the "winter" sun. Well, all this is possible in the Canary Islands, the preferred destination for many central European tourists at this time of year.

Usually, if you do not celebrate the holidays at home, we usually choose a destination that is more “Christmas” in spirit, as could be London or Berlin. A different alternative, that is gaining more an more followers is to celebrate Christmas in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. 



It is a unique destination with a pleasant climate, with extremely friendly people and first class services. There are different proposals for spending this time of year on the island, but a sure bet is  to choose a gastronomic hotel in Tenerife. The Iberostar Grand Hotel Mencey is, without doubts, the most well known in the Canary Islands.

Also, it has one of the best restaurants in Tenerife, the restaurant of Los Menceyes, with the Canarian chef Juan Carlos Clemente heading the kitchen. The hotel has in turn a Cookery Classroom where they hold weekly cooking classes, Master Classes with Michelin star chefs, events and presentations, private classes… The best advice is to check the hotel’s website or their Facebook page, to find out about their latest offers.

The hotel is preparing a very special Christmas dinner, with a menu created for the occasion with featured wines, live music and a bar service after dinner. For the 25th of December, the hotel is offering a delicious Christmas buffet, very Spanish.

Nature and golf in Tenerife at the Sandos San Blas resort



We continue our posts by reviewing the latest news of the hotel chain Sandos, one of the most prestigious hotel chains in Spain and Mexico. Todays review is dedicated to a hotel in the south of Tenerife, the Sandos San Blas Nature Resort & Golf hotel.

Located between Los Cristianos, San Miguel de Abona and El Medano, it is an accommodation built around an innovative concept that is closely linked with the essence of the island: an ecological resort in which to enjoy the natural surroundings that Tenerife has to offer, especially the Nature Reserve of San Blas, (near which sits the resort) and live outdoor experiences in direct contact with nature.

The decoration stands out for its soft colours and inspired by the landscape surrounding the resort, located in the area known as Golf del Sur: greens, yellows, browns and orange colours... The rooms are each a unique space with a well looked after design.

Another advantage, is its excellent gourmet cuisine, with a restaurant where you can enjoy an international buffet and try local dishes. You can not forget their cocktails. They have 4 different bars and spectacular views of the area, as it is on the beach frontline.

However, what makes this hotel something truly different is its "Eco Experience" service, that allows all the guests the possibility of making excursions, workshops and even a complete tour of the Nature Reserve of San Blas, with river tours on typical water rafts, and an Eco Club that collaborates with local institutions in favour of the conservation of the local environment.


With respect to the services, it is a hotel in line with what Sandos hotels offer: free wifi, full spa, golf - with access to 2 golf courses next door - , kid’s club, climbing, live music, tours, beach, infinity pools... A luxury hotel in the south of Tenerife.


The keys points:

· The Eco Experiences: A different way to enjoy Tenerife.

· Free Wifi access throughout the hotel.

· Spa with sauna, Jacuzzi, beauty centre, treatments ...

· Ideal for traveling with children
