Christmas in Tenerife South: where luxury meets endless sunshine

Between wrapping gifts and scraping ice off the windshield, there’s a place where Christmas looks a little different. Think ocean views, golden sunsets, and your own heated pool — because in Tenerife South, December feels a lot more like July.

As local property managers specialised in luxury rentals in Tenerife, we’ve seen first-hand how magical the festive season can be here. And if you’re dreaming of something more boutique than a busy resort — we know just the spot.

Why Tenerife South is the best place to spend the holidays

While most of Europe is bundled up in scarves and gloves, Tenerife South quietly enjoys 24°C days, calm evenings, and the perfect excuse to trade mulled wine for sangria.

But there’s more to it than just sunshine. Tenerife’s south coast — especially the area around Los Gigantes — has its own microclimate. That means it’s almost always good weather, even when the north gets clouds or wind. Locals joke that Los Gigantes has “its own sun,” and honestly, they’re not wrong.

Add in peaceful surroundings, charming restaurants by the marina, and that slow, easy rhythm that makes you forget what day it is — and you’ve got the ultimate winter escape.

What makes Christmas in Los Gigantes special

There’s something surreal about waking up on Christmas morning, opening the curtains, and seeing the ocean glittering right outside your room.

In Los Gigantes, locals celebrate quietly — a long lunch on the terrace, a walk by the cliffs, maybe a swim before dinner. Restaurants stay open, lights twinkle along the promenade, and there’s this calm, happy buzz in the air.

Instead of rushing, you exhale.

It’s the kind of holiday you don’t need another vacation to recover from.

Tips for visiting during the festive season

• Book early: December is peak season for luxury stays — our apartments fill up quickly from mid-November.

• Pack light: You’ll live in swimsuits and linen shirts more than sweaters.

• Make it yours: Add a touch of Christmas with fairy lights or a bottle of cava on the terrace — it’s simple, warm, and unforgettable.
