What we think

Skylark only includes hotels that meet our stamp of approval. Our editorial review for this one isn’t ready yet — but we’re working on it! Below is the hotel’s own description.

The Ritz-Carlton Tenerife, Abama, is an oasis of tranquility and seclusion, where sea, land, and subtropical vegetation effortlessly collide with Moorish-inspired architecture. The 459 guest rooms & suites - divided between the Citadel and four exclusive rows of villas - enjoy magnificent views over the Atlantic Ocean, Mount Teide or our lush gardens. The resort offers a collection of restaurants ranging from light, simple cooking to Michelin-starred gourmet cuisine. This timeless island retreat provides a haven of escape and features numerous swimming pools, a 2500m2 Spa & Fitness Center, and the largest Ritz Kids in Europe. Guests can enjoy an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Ryder Cup player Dave Thomas, the Abama Tennis Academy, and an exclusive area on the Abama beach with complimentary use of sunbeds and umbrellas, serviced by our Ladies & Gentlemen.
