Where the Playa de las Américas hotels are

Skip the map

Before you go to Playa de las Américas

Getting there

Tenerife South (TFS) is about 15 to 20 minutes away by road, so it is one of the easiest resorts to reach. Taxis wait outside arrivals at all hours. By bus, line 40 runs from the airport to the Costa Adeje bus station on the edge of the resort, and line 343 links both airports with Los Cristianos. From Tenerife North (TFN) allow about an hour by road.

Beaches

The Troya beaches have grey sand and generally gentle water, with the busy promenade right behind them. El Camisón, a few minutes' walk from Las Vistas, has fine golden sand, and Las Vistas itself, with its 2026 Blue Flag, is a stroll away towards Los Cristianos. Sunbeds, showers and beach bars are easy to find all along the front.

Good to know

The seafront promenade runs the length of the resort and is good for walking, jogging and cycling, joining Costa Adeje to the west and Los Cristianos to the east. Nightlife is the big draw for many: bars and clubs keep going late. Golf Las Américas sits just inland, and boat trips for whale and dolphin watching leave from the nearby harbours.

Staying in Playa de las Américas

Is Playa de las Américas good for nightlife?

Yes. It has the island's busiest night scene, with bars and clubs close to the seafront that stay open late.

What are the beaches like in Playa de las Américas?

The Troya beaches have grey sand and gentle water, while El Camisón and nearby Las Vistas have golden sand.

Can you walk from Playa de las Américas to Los Cristianos?

Yes. The seafront promenade runs straight from one to the other past Las Vistas beach.

Is there golf near Playa de las Américas?

Yes. Golf Las Américas is just inland of the resort, and several hotels sit close to the course.
