Our apartments are located on the Southern coast at the resort of Los Cristianos. Los Cristianos is an ideal family resort situated in a sheltered bay. Many years ago Los Cristianos was a small fishing village, and we have watched the small town grow into a colourful, flourishing family resort, accommodating its many visitors, while still managing to retain its old world charm.

At the heart of the old town centre there is a magnificent church and square, a popular meeting place for locals and holidaymakers alike. Leading from this are a number of streets, the enthusiastic shopper is well catered for here with outstanding selection of gift shops and markets. There are also local and international restaurants and bars, to cater for every purse and palate, with excellent facilities for pushchairs and wheelchair users in its mainly pedestrianised streets.


Along the front, you'll find plenty for you and your family to see and do, including a sandy play area, trampolining and small merry-go-round type rides.

Hair braiding and temporary tatooing along with local portrait artists as well as colourful 'local entrepreneurs' selling watches, 'gold & silver' jewellery, 'designer' sunglasses and hats complete the promenade walk!
The town has a volcanic sandy beach which is clean and safe for children, however, a new coastal walkway leading through to its neighbouring resort, Playa de las Americas, has a much wider beach with finer sand.

Los Cristianos also has a very comprehensive bus station with buses regularly departing for the Capital, Santa Cruz, Puerto de la Cruz, in the North of the Island and Los Gigantes on the western coast. There are also many free buses to local resorts and attractions.

 

Many boat trips can be taken from Los Cristianos, there are whales and dolphins to be seen, the hydrofoil and cruises to other Canary Islands originate here, as well as trips to its nearest Island, La Gomera, which is just approximately 75 minutes away. This extremely picturesque island is still unspoilt and has many unusual plants and beautiful flowers growing there.

If you are interested in a holiday with discos and nightclubs this can be found in the neighbouring resort of Playa de las Americas approximately 10 minutes away by taxi.
