Top 5 Things You Should Consider When Choosing a Holiday Apartment in Tenerife

One of the largest Canary Islands in Spain, Tenerife is one of the most popular places for tourists to go and visit, especially with British and German holidaymakers. This is down to several factors, but the main reasons are because of the stunning beaches and dynamic nightlife it has to offer. Tenerife is arguably one of the most interesting and beautiful places to visit, what with its exotic and breath-taking scenery, volcanoes, rich forests and exotic flora. If this has tempted you then here’s a rundown on the top 5 factors you should consider when choosing holiday apartments in Tenerife:

Quiet Getaway

If you are looking for a quiet getaway in Tenerife, then Los Gigantes, located at the tip of the west coast, is probably your best choice. This town is accessible by boat and is tourist friendly. There are many holiday apartments here that cater to the needs of tourists.

Hot, Hot Hot

If cold and rainy weather is getting you down and thus making you crave some sunshine then I would recommend the south of the island. This part of the island tends to get sunshine consistently throughout the year and there is very little wind making it best for beach holidays. It may get chilly in January/February. Just south of Torviscas and up into the hills of Las Americas, there are some excellent beaches. Once again this part offers some of the best holiday apartments in Tenerife as well as a few hotels. You can get good deals on holiday apartments online. The name ‘Las Americas’ conjures up the image of lively night-time bars. This area is less suitable for families with kids.

Families

If you are a family then Puerto de La Cruz would be an excellent location. This is the main tourist area in the north of the island, and is known for its sophisticated hotel apartments. Apartment rental here may cost a little more. However, because of the lush, tropical vegetation and the rich flavour of Tenerife culture, you are in for the best. You will find that outside the holiday apartments not much English is spoken, and the nightlife ranges from sophisticated to karaoke.

Historical Buildings

La Orotava is perhaps the most beautiful town in Tenerife. Dotted with historical buildings and flower filled squares, the houses in the typical narrow streets have attractive wooden balconies; this town is a picture of perfection. If you are a history buff, then it makes sense to choose apartment rentals in this part of the town. You can shop in the main shopping street or in the town’s indoor shopping centre ‘La Villa’, as well as venturing to many historical places.

Celebrations And Fiestas

Spain is known for its celebrations and fiestas. If you are planning to join in any of these festivals that take place throughout the year, then you should choose holiday apartments in Los Realejos. This is the town in Spain with the most festivals; more than 80 festivals take place every year.

Whichever holiday apartments in Tenerife you choose to stay in, don’t forget to consider your needs and your budget.
