Hotels in Golf del Sur

Golf del Sur

Golf del Sur is a purpose-built resort community on Tenerife's southeastern coast, centred around two prestigious golf courses and situated just ten minutes from Tenerife South Airport. The area encompasses the Amarilla Golf complex and its marina, where palm-lined boulevards and landscaped gardens contrast with the dramatic volcanic terrain that characterises the southern coastline of the island. The championship Amarilla Golf course, designed by Donald Steel and opened in 1989, features several holes running directly along the Atlantic coastline with views of Montana Roja and the neighbouring island of Gran Canaria on clear days. A seafront promenade connects Golf del Sur to the Amarilla marina, a popular departure point for whale and dolphin watching excursions, submarine safaris, sailing trips and deep-sea fishing charters. The San Blas commercial centre serves as the social hub of the community, with three interconnected squares packed with restaurants, bars, shops and services catering to the resort's international community of golfers, long-stay visitors and permanent residents. Beyond golf, the area offers excellent conditions for scuba diving, windsurfing, kayaking and coastal walking along the volcanic shoreline, with several small coves and the Amarilla Beach providing sheltered spots for swimming and sunbathing. Golf del Sur enjoys some of the most consistent sunshine on Tenerife, with average temperatures rarely dropping below 20 degrees Celsius even in winter, making it a year-round destination for outdoor activities and relaxation. The resort sits within the municipality of San Miguel de Abona and provides convenient access to the livelier tourist centres of Los Cristianos and Playa de las Americas to the west, as well as the authentic fishing village of Los Abrigos and the kitesurfing hub of El Medano to the east. Several major international hotel brands have established properties in the area, including Barcelo, Bahia Principe and Wyndham, alongside a range of apartment complexes and boutique accommodations that cater to both short-stay holidaymakers and long-term residents. With its combination of world-class golf facilities, reliable climate, seafront leisure and proximity to the airport, Golf del Sur has established itself as one of southern Tenerife's most appealing resort destinations for sports enthusiasts and sun-seeking travellers.
