Bahia del Duque, Costa Adeje
Tenerife
Bahia Del Duque is an esteemed member of the Leading Hotels of the World, and with good reason. Located in Costa Adeje, it's an oasis of calm amongst the bustling southwestern coast of Tenerife. Upon entering the lush and green complex, you'll be struck by the hotel's air of late 19th century Venetian splendour. Sculptures depicting the four seasons and grand Corinthian columns welcome guests into the village-like resort, with palm trees, exclusive private villas and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Everything is typical of the Canary Islands, from the colonial-style surroundings and locally inspired cuisine, to the unique staff attire, typical of the region in days gone by. Readers of Conde Nast Traveller magazine even voted the resort's spa as 'Best in Spain'.
An array of rooms and suites options awaits guests at hotel Bahia Del Duque, each designed with class and comfort in mind. Dotted around the spectacular grounds are 346 rooms, including 40 villas. Casas Ducales, an exclusive area of the hotel, is home to a colonial-style estate that is separate from the rest of the property. The estate is attended by a dedicated butler and enjoys luxuries such as a private solarium, evening canapés and panoramic ocean views. Opened in 2008, Las Villas Bahia del Duque offers further exclusivity with its completely private residences, infinity pools and nightly Champagne receptions.
Eight restaurants allow guests to indulge in all manner of cuisines, with Italian, Spanish and Canarian taking centre stage. No less than 13 bars serve up delicious appetisers, cocktails, fresh juices and homemade ice creams. For more information on dining at Bahia del Duque, refer to our dining tab under the hotel facilities.
The star of the show is undoubtedly the hotel's award-winning spa, with a thermal circuit consisting of thalassotherapy pool, Turkish bath, saunas, cold seawater plunge pools and Thai treatment rooms. There's also a vast range of outdoor activities to enjoy, including tennis, pitch and putt, walks in the botanical gardens, table tennis and even an astronomical observatory, perfect for a spot of late-night stargazing.
Speak to the friendly hotel staff about chartering a motor boat for coastal trips up to Los Gigantes, with lunch on deck, and plenty of snorkelling and swimming to be enjoyed.
