My Mind Still Remembers That Great Holiday I Had in Tenerife

By Willoughby Jackson


My friends and I have always wanted to visit the island of Tenerife, the largest of the islands in the Canaries. In 2011, we have finally decided on a time to be able to go and we have booked our airline and hotel accommodations far in advance for guaranteed holiday accommodations.

I still smile to myself inwardly when I remember that day. During the flight, since most of us were first timers in Tenerife, we were all so worked up over our impending holiday. Nevertheless, people were so hyped up the moment the plane touched down in Tenerife Airport. Who would not be hyped up when everyone is so worked up? The first thing that came into our minds upon disembarking was to go ahead to the beach. The sun was up so high that day, that we all wanted to experience wind, sun and surf in Tenerife. However, there is still the need to check in to the hotel to begin our luxury holidays to Tenerife.

Honestly, we entered into a long argument before we decided on the hotel that we would be checking in to. We finally settled on the Villa Cortes in Tenerife's Playa de Las Americas area. The Villa Cortes turned out to be a Mexican-themed resort with only 151 bedrooms in total. The hotel features five bars and had five restaurants. When we arrived, we treated ourselves to a full course that was excellently prepared by a very competent chef and his staff. We all thought to ourselves, ?This is the life!? We knew right there that we were in for a treat, for the whole week that we would be spending in Tenerife!

We decided to go with Playa de las Americas for a reason - it is the "party capital" of the island. For people like us, there is not a holiday in any place that is complete without trying the night life. Night after night, we found ourselves in one bar or two in the Veronicas, a full kilometer decked out with night clubs and places that offer live music, drinks and interaction with others. Our holiday to Tenerife was basically a week full of partying, great food and meeting new people who are also out on a holiday like us!

Of course, addititionally there is the beach. The Villa Cortes made it easy for us to head over to the beach and the water if we felt like it. It simply takes a few minutes' walk from our hotel room for us to reach the white sands that Tenerife is known for. If we wanted to dive into the ocean or just indulge in the sun, we only had to walk for a couple of minutes or so.

There are so many other places that holiday-goers should check out when visiting Tenerife. What you should do is take a look highly recommended site out for more information.
