Accommodation descrpition

The 3* Barcelo Varadero is located on the sunny west coast of Tenerife. Playa de la Arena is part of an expanding complex that also includes Puerto de Santiago and Los Gigantes. This part of the coast is dominated by massive black cliffs that drop dramatically into the ocean, and the area is a favourite with people in search of a quiet, relaxing holiday. Accommodation in Playa de la Arena perches on hills overlooking the sea and its sheltered, gently shelving, black-sand beach is backed by landscaped gardens and young palm trees. Spotlessly maintained, this beach has won the European Blue Flag award for cleanliness.
