While looking for a resort in Tenerife, of course we all think first about the weather – is good weather important to you during the trip? Certain areas of Tenerife areas have quite predictable weather year round.
For the warmest weather, the obvious choices are in Tenerife South. A 16 miles area typically enjoys the warmest average year-round temperatures on the island, mostly calm with no strong winds. High and low temperatures are typically 21c/16c in January and 29c/23c in August. Los Abrigos, Las Galletas and El Medano are inclined to be windy. In winter they can be a couple of degrees cooler and in summer, several degrees warmer.

Costa Adeje refers to a 20+ kilometre coastline but for holiday purposes refers to the coastal area between Playa de Las Americas and La Caleta, especially the San Eugenio, Torviscas and El Duque areas. The zone covers a number of distinct areas, each with its own flavour, ranging from ‘pint+cheap breakfast’ to classier locations. The resort has the hallmarks of a typical European beach resort rather than traditional Tenerife.
Costa Adeje has some of the best hotels and amenities on the island with blue-flag beaches safe for swimming, many dining options for all tastes and budgets and a diverse range of shops and boutiques. Nightlife in the some areas is more limited outside of the hotels, but there are several lively bars, lounges and cabaret spots. However, for the young and young-at-heart wanting late night bars, discos, etc, nearby Playa de las Americas is only a 10€ taxi ride away.
