Hotels in Los Cristianos

Los Cristianos grew from a fishing village into a lively resort without losing its working harbour, where ferries leave for La Gomera and the other western islands. The town has a sandy bay, a long promenade and plenty of shops and restaurants. It suits families, couples and longer stays, and the flat seafront makes it one of the easier places on the island to get around.

Where the Los Cristianos hotels are

Before you go to Los Cristianos

Getting there

Tenerife South (TFS) is about 15 to 20 minutes away by road, and a taxi from the rank outside arrivals is the simplest transfer. Line 343 links both airports with Los Cristianos, and other TITSA services connect the town with the rest of the south and Santa Cruz. From Tenerife North (TFN) allow about an hour by road.

Beaches

Las Vistas is the big one: 850 metres of pale golden sand with easy access, sunbeds and a 2026 Blue Flag. Los Cristianos beach is the smaller bay by the harbour, also pale sand and right in town. El Camisón, with fine golden sand, is a few minutes' walk further along the promenade towards Playa de las Américas.

Good to know

The port shapes the town. Ferries leave Los Cristianos for San Sebastián de La Gomera in about 50 minutes, and there are sailings to La Palma and El Hierro too, so island hopping is easy. A broad avenue runs along the beaches, and most of the area's shops and cultural life are here. The streets behind the harbour keep a small town feel.

Staying in Los Cristianos

Can you take a ferry from Los Cristianos to La Gomera?

Yes. Ferries sail from Los Cristianos to San Sebastián de La Gomera, taking about 50 minutes, and there are also routes to La Palma and El Hierro.

Is Las Vistas beach good for swimming?

Yes. It is a wide pale sand beach with easy access, sunbeds and showers, and it holds a Blue Flag for 2026.

Is Los Cristianos quieter than Playa de las Américas?

Generally yes. It has plenty of bars and restaurants but is more of a town than a nightlife resort, with a working harbour at its heart.

How far is Los Cristianos from Tenerife South airport?

About 15 to 20 minutes by road, and line 343 runs between the airports and Los Cristianos.
