Tenerife is one of the few places a golfer, a partner, teenagers and grandparents can all have a genuinely good week.
My son has been coming to Tenerife since he was a baby. He's eight now, and he knows exactly which waterslide at Siam Park is the best one. That's the kind of knowledge you don't get from a brochure.
Not everyone in your group plays golf, and they shouldn't have to spend the week waiting for you to finish the back nine. Tenerife is one of the few places where the golfer, the partner who's never held a club, the teenagers and the grandparents can all have a genuinely good week — without ever having to compromise on each other.
And because the island is comfortable all year, it works just as well for February half-term as it does for the long summer holidays.
Tenerife has four major attractions, and they pair up. Which pair you want depends entirely on the age of your children — and getting that right is the difference between a brilliant day and an expensive one.
The parks are the obvious bit. This is the part most visitors miss entirely.
This is where a good trip becomes a great one — and it is the part almost nobody thinks of.
One family, one villa, four different ideas of a good day — and nobody compromising.
No forms to wrestle with, no pressure. Just a conversation with someone who knows the island.
