Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
By Axel Hernborg · Updated 31 August 2026 · How we review hotels
For those seeking a secluded, self-contained cliffside retreat with multiple pools and beach access, The Ritz-Carlton Tenerife, Abama is a strong choice. It maintains a Booking.com score of 9 from 908 reviews. The estate features seven distinct outdoor swimming pools and funicular access to a private beach. Be mindful that the large resort layout requires extensive walking and the location is remote, far from any major towns.
Guests score it 9 out of 10 — the average across the 12 hotels we list in Tenerife is 8.9.
What Guests Loved
- Positioned on a dramatic cliff in Guía de Isora, the resort offers panoramic vistas of the Atlantic Ocean and La Gomera island, providing a quiet escape from busier tourist hubs.
- With eight on-site restaurants, guests can experience a diverse culinary journey ranging from traditional Spanish flavors to international fine dining without needing to leave the property.
Things to Consider
- The sprawling Moorish-style estate can be challenging to navigate on foot, though a regular resort train and golf buggies are available to assist guests.
- Situated on the quieter southwest coast, the hotel is a drive away from Tenerife's main nightlife and cultural attractions, making a rental car highly recommended.
