Playa del Duque, Costa AdejeOn our lists
Hotel Riu Arecas is a 4-star, adults-only hotel in La Herradura, at the quieter northern end of Costa Adeje. Playa del Duque is 450 metres away, about six minutes on foot, and Tenerife South airport is within easy reach.
Stays are on half board, with three restaurants to choose from: a buffet, a Spanish-themed room and an à la carte option, plus three bars. Outside there are two pools heated in winter and an infinity pool with a sand terrace, so finding a sunny spot is rarely hard. A wellness centre with a jacuzzi and steam bath handles massages and treatments, and the gym is fully equipped. It suits couples and friends who want a calm, grown-up base with dinner sorted, and the beach and the shops around Playa del Duque within an easy stroll.
Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out by 12:00.
