Boutique holidays in Tenerife
Tenerife is one of the most compelling year-round destinations in Europe, offering a striking mix of volcanic landscapes, rich culture and dependable sunshine. Our boutique holidays in Tenerife are designed to showcase the island’s diversity – from the polished coastal lifestyle of the south to the greener, more characterful north.
The south of Tenerife is a haven for those seeking winter sun from November through to April. With its warmer, drier climate, this part of the island is known for its golden beaches, contemporary resorts and refined selection of beach clubs and restaurants. It is here that Tenerife presents its most relaxed and effortless side.
In contrast, north Tenerife offers a more authentic and culturally rich experience. Centred around Puerto de la Cruz, this greener part of the island is defined by botanical gardens, historic architecture and a slower, more local pace of life. It is a side of Tenerife that feels more traditional, yet equally rewarding.
Across the island, natural beauty is ever-present. Tenerife is home to 43 protected areas, including the UNESCO-listed Teide National Park, where Spain’s highest peak rises above a dramatic volcanic landscape. The coastline is equally varied, with both golden and black sand beaches, while the waters surrounding the island are among the best in the world for whale and dolphin watching, with sightings possible year-round.
Tenerife’s gastronomy has evolved significantly in recent years, earning a growing reputation for its quality and creativity. Local produce – from fresh tuna and seafood to avocados and the island’s distinctive wines – is showcased across a number of exceptional restaurants, including several Michelin-starred establishments.
At Discerning Collection, our Tenerife holidays are carefully curated to reflect the island’s contrasts. We feature both the refined resort setting of Abama in the south and the historic elegance of Gran Hotel Taoro in the north – offering two distinct yet complementary ways to experience Tenerife.

Our accommodation in Tenerife
In the south of Tenerife, we feature the highly regarded Abama resort, home to the elegant Las Terrazas de Abama Suites. A collection of one, two and three-bedroom suites, these offer space, privacy and sweeping ocean views, with contemporary interiors that sit seamlessly within the surrounding landscape.
In north Tenerife, Gran Hotel Taoro overlooks the historic town of Puerto de la Cruz. Recently restored to its former grandeur, it offers a more characterful and culturally connected stay, set within lush gardens and with views across the Atlantic and towards Mount Teide.
Together, these two properties provide a well-balanced introduction to Tenerife — from the sun-drenched coastline of the south to the greener, more authentic landscapes of the north.
