Designed to resemble a North African citadel with sandstone turrets rising from a luxuriant garden of tropical flora and palm trees, the property covers a vast surface area yet the design creates a sense of intimacy and privacy by incorporating hidden gardens and quiet corners. Colonial-style with contemporary art work, offering generous floor space, enormous comfortable beds and elegant en suites. Large balconies are completely private and a romantic spot from which to watch the sun setting behind La Gomera. The hotel’s 10 restaurants offer a high standard of dining and menus ranging from traditional Canarian to Argentinian. At the top end, there are two Michelin-starred options: MB, the signature restaurant of the Basque chef Martin Berasategui, and Kabuki, managed by executive chef Daniel Franco and specialising in Japanese fusion cuisine.
A timeless island retreat of natural beauty and endless possibilities, The Ritz-Carlton, Abama is designed to harness Tenerife’s unique climate, offering a holistic experience for guests of all ages.
