La Pinta Beach Club Playa de las Americas Canary Islands

This award winning, luxury family resort in southern Tenerife is perfectly situated right on the beachfront in the popular tourist town of Torviscas. Some consider it the best location in Tenerife; within walking distance of a number of excellent attractions and yet the resort itself is an oasis of calm and tranquility.

Two stunning outdoor pools as well as a safe splash pool for the little ones, terraces with sun beds and a poolside bar for those essential sundowner cocktails, La Pinta Beach Club also boasts two excellent restaurants on the premises. Most of the apartments at La Pinta Beach Club are one bedroom luxury units. Sleeping up to four people comfortably, the apartments are spacious, air-conditioned and each has a private terrace or balcony. The fully equipped kitchen has all the mod cons, including a dishwasher and the separate bathrooms have a power-shower, jet bath and double vanity unit. Plasma TV in each room with satellite channels and DVD player complete the ensemble.

There are a number of two bedroom units, sleeping up to six people, but booking should be done well in advance to ensure availability.

A holiday in Tenerife is not about staying at home though – there is so much to discover and experience on this, the largest of the Canary Island chain. Just 5 minutes walk from La Pinta Beach Club; you'll find the Puerto Colon Marina. This is where it all happens; the centre of water activities and fun in Torviscas. Playa La Pinta is a gorgeous sandy beach adjacent to the marina and offers safe swimming and lazy days working on your tan. From the marina you can book a number of exciting water sports and boat tours: Whale watching trips between Torviscas and the nearby island of La Gomera, diving, sailing, and motorised water sports are all easily arranged on your day at the marina.
