Hotels in Los Cristianos

The former fishing village of Los Cristianos is nestled on the south coast of Tenerife, the largest and most heavily populated of the seven Canary Islands. Although now a popular tourist resort with lots to keep newcomers entertained, the town has retained some of its charm and visitors are guaranteed a warm welcome. Looking to find a great selection of Los Cristianos hotels online? We have a wide range of accommodation options available, so check to see if there's something to suit your lifestyle and budget.

Stretch out in the sun

If your idea of a break involves relaxing on sandy beaches, bathing in clean waters and having a wide range of activities and attractions on tap when you're in the mood, Los Cristianos is sure to appeal. The resort's main beach, Playa de Los Cristianos, is a hive of activity. Many visitors to the area come to enjoy its soft sand, sunbeds and excellent facilities. You'll find plenty of opportunities to try your hand at some new water sports too, including sailing, windsurfing and bodyboarding.

Take a stroll along the palm tree-lined promenade that borders the beach towards the town's picturesque harbour. Carry on and you'll come to Playa de las Vistas, an artificial stretch of golden sand that has clear, calm waters thanks to the bay's water break.

Local attractions

The Monkey Park, situated on the outskirts of town, is a breeding centre for endangered animals - primates in particular. Pay a visit to learn all about the residents and discover how the centre's breeding programme works.

If you're in the mood to take to the open sea then consider booking a place on a fishing charter boat. Alternatively, you could sign up for a gentle guided walk through laurel forests and along coastal paths. More adventurous souls might want to head into Teide National Park for a trek around the rim of the now extinct Mount Samara volcano.

Shopping

The pedestrian area behind the promenade in Los Cristianos is where you'll find the bustling town centre with its excellent selection of shops, selling everyday essentials alongside gifts and local craft items. Prices here can often be more reasonable than for similar items on sale a little further along the coast in Playa de las Américas.

Eating and drinking

Wander along the beachfront in Los Cristianos and you'll be faced with a huge range of dining options, with something to suit all tastes. The Willows is known for its tapas dishes and friendly atmosphere, and Rincón del Marinero is a recommended spot for seafood dishes.

Pizzeria Daccapo offers quality Italian cuisine at affordable prices, while Garibaldi focuses on serving meat and pasta dishes in a more intimate setting.

For live music sessions and a friendly atmosphere try an evening at The Claddagh, or swing by The Swan on karaoke night if you're in the mood to let your hair down.
