Royal Garden Villas, Costa Adeje, Tenerife

The Royal Garden Villas in Tenerife’s exclusive Costa Adeje are the epitome of luxury and exclusivity and boast 5 Star Gran Lujo status (the highest level attainable in Spain). With 28 self-contained detached villas on-site, guests enjoy all of the benefits of a 5 star hotel combined with the privacy afforded by a luxury villa. And with up to 500m2 of outdoor space – your privacy is assured. The villas include one to three bedrooms, bathrooms, fully-equipped kitchens, lounge and private pool. The superbly designed and appointed Asian-themed on-site spa is the perfect place to relax and enjoy various treatments, with my favourite combining frankincense and myrrh oils. Although each villa’s kitchen is fully-equipped, the Restaurant Jardín offers stunning gourmet cuisine without having to lift anything other than your knife and fork, and for those more laid-back evenings there is the Tucán Tucán Pub. Perfectly described by a recent guest as “an oasis of calm and tranquillity”.
