More often than not these guesthouses and B&Bs are family-run, sometimes on a working farm or vineyard, sometimes in a traditional village house. Usually they offer a peaceful retreat; they definitely offer an individual style and charm. And almost always they offer great value for money. We have selected the best guesthouses and B&Bs on Tenerife for you to choose from.
Icod de Los Vinos
A characterful 18th century hotel, worlds away from your usual Tenerife soulless resort. The rooms are furnished with bespoke interiors, antique beds and tasteful artwork. The piano room and delightful restaurant exude an undeniable sense of old world glamour. A place of heritage and history.
Tenerife (Tenerife)
A delightful hotel away from the resort-dominated south of the island. The rooms are refreshingly stripped back with simple furnishings and tasteful modern art. Go horse riding or chance your arm at windsurfing. Both tranquil and cost-effective, it's ideal for a relaxing holiday.
