Just back from a week in Tenerife last week in November. Weather was fantastic 22-24 degrees.
Arona Accommodation
Studio is very stylish with modern contemporary furnishings, beautifully kept. It is in a very quiet area so you can get plenty of rest time. The large balcony with sun for hours each day was great. Great shower and english channels on tv. A total plus was the heated swimming pool, make the most of it. The pool area is wonderful, plenty of sunbeds and space. The water machine at the pool is only 50c for 5 ltrs of drinking water and saves carrying it distances. Our host, Cristina, was so very helpful and arranged our airport transfers as our arrival was very late evening. A great help when arriving. Thanks Cristina.
Area
Nearest supermarket is just down around a corner and try the fresh croissants in the morning. We hired a car very close by for €40 for 24 hours to go for a drive, includes all insurance and taxes.
This was our first time in Tenerife and we hadn't expected the area to be so spread out. It is very built up, although beautifully kept. As it has many hills you really do need to be able to walk down and up hills daily. It is about a 30 minute walk down to the main town. We did this each day and if we needed to go back in the evening we would get a taxi at a cost of approx €5-€7 depending on how far you want to travel across Los Cristianos and Las Americas. Lots of restaurants near the studio. Taurus steak house is lovely. In Las Americas across from the Hard Rock Cafe is Mama Mia and the lasagne there was fantastic (not the Mama Mia close to studio, that wasn't great). We ate in one of the small sports pubs near by and it was dreadful, avoid those. We had a fabulous hot breakfast in the shopping centre Oliver Garden. Very little real band music in the area, which we missed. Mainly backing tracks with different singers nightly.
We had a very enjoyable energetic week.
