From its lofty perch, sea-views and king-of-the-castle contentment are guaranteed here.
Set high on a cliff-top‚ overlooking the small fishing village of Playa de Santiago‚ the tranquil Jardin Tecina is a delight. Just a short ferry crossing from Tenerife – 30 to 45 minutes – it’s bagged one of the most beautiful locations on this unspoilt island. Resembling a Canarian-style village, it’s a big hotel, but it doesn’t feel it because it’s so spread out. Guest rooms are in low-rise buildings clustered around a lovely pool complex and etched into the terraced hillside. All around are sprawling sub-tropical gardens filled with exotic plants and trees.

In the bedrooms, the décor is simple but smart. Brightly checkered bedspreads with splashes of vivid colour on the curtains offset whitewashed walls and simple, unfussy furniture.

Five swimming pools and a variety of sun terraces in the main village area compete with a sea-level lido at the base of the cliff. There’s a bar and à la carte barbecue-style restaurant down there, too.

On the subject of food, most meals are taken in the main buffet restaurant where you can dine al fresco on the terrace.

If you feel like stepping up the pace a little, the hotel’s busy entertainment team ensures there’s plenty of daytime and evening activities. On site you’ve got tennis and paddle courts. And right beside the hotel there’s a golf course.
