Playa de las Americas is one of the largest and most exciting resorts on the Island of Tenerife, but for the holidaymaker looking for a quieter time apartments in Los Cristianos might be better. This is a super spot to holiday in and although not as lively as the larger resorts, there is still plenty to do.

This is a popular holiday resort situated in a sheltered cove on the south-west of the island of Tenerife, close to the glitzy playground of Playa de las Americas. Los cristianos was once a sleepy fishing village, and although it has been transformed into a modern-day resort, still maintains some of its traditional charms.

This resort is situated in a sheltered bay and still has a working harbor. The harbor is surrounded by shops, hotels and apartments and is fronted by a square. The promenade stretches all the way across and reaches as far as Playa de las Americas.

The old town forms part of the harbor and the main street is for pedestrians only, many local people still live here. The best beach is close by and Playa de las Vistas is a man-made beach which has been constructed with sand from the Sahara dessert. Los cristianos is far more sedate than the boisterous las Americas, but access to this resort is just a short taxi drive away if you want to spice up your night life.

One of the beauties of holidaying in Tenerife is the duty free shopping. Popular souvenirs are cultured pearls as well as handicrafts, but holiday makers also enjoy shopping for cameras, designer clothing, tobacco, perfume and electrical goods.

Supermarkets are filled with popular English brands, particularly those in the San Eugene center. There is a street market on a Sunday where merchandise can be purchased cheaply, it is great fun to visit this market and haggle with the locals for discounts.

Restaurants are many and varied, are all of a very high standard where you will find every conceivable kind of cuisine. If you fancy Indian or Mexican food, or just plain bacon and eggs, you will find it. There are also a few night clubs, discos and lively pubs, but most people venture to Playa de las Americas for their night life thrills.
