Overview

 
Tucked inside the iconic Hotel Bahia del Duque estate, Las Villas Bahia del Duque is a sanctuary of privacy on Tenerife’s glamorous Costa Adeje. Think sweeping tropical gardens, classic Canarian architecture and just a handful of lavish villas, each with its own private plunge pool. You get the best of both worlds here: personal butler-style touches and villa seclusion, plus full access to a five-star beachfront resort with outstanding dining, five pools, a sublime spa and child-friendly facilities when you want them.

Step through the gates of Las Villas Bahia del Duque and you are in a world of whitewashed domes, terracotta roofs and palm-framed pathways that spill down towards Playa del Duque. Villas feel more like private residences than hotel rooms, with generous living spaces, luxe linens, Nespresso machines and sun-drenched terraces wrapped around your own plunge pool. When it is time to explore, simply wander out into the grounds of Bahia del Duque for a choice of pools, beachfront lounging and some of the most celebrated restaurants in Costa Adeje. For couples or families wanting the Canary Islands’ year-round sun with an extra dash of exclusivity, Las Villas Bahia del Duque delivers in style. It sits right on Costa Adeje’s chic beachfront promenade and it is around 30 minutes by road from Tenerife South Airport (TFS). See more Canary Islands holidays.
