Wellness seekers, you should head right in the heart of Tenerife’s rugged mountainous region, 778 metres up and into Charco del Pino. Make the journey and you’ll find something unique – a Mexican-style hacienda that combines a cosy rustic character with impressive modern wellness perks. Whitewashed walls, wood-burning fireplaces, and original exposed beams create a snug interior, and you’ll find a well-equipped gym and – one of the biggest draws – your own sauna, too. Outdoors, several panoramic terraces overlook a sparkling pool (views of the surrounding peaks are mirrored in the water, for an extra lovely touch), that make their way over to an elevated viewpoint that’s truly gorgeous at sunset. In this part of the world, there’s zero light pollution to speak of, so nightfall is a real celestial spectacle, best enjoyed above your al fresco dinner table. Bring the car, and it’s just a 20-minute drive to the coast.

A sense of thoroughly modern luxury takes over at this sleek, light-flooded retreat, which is perched dramatically above the Costa Adeje coastline with far-reaching views towards La Gomera. With room for 10, it’s created with proper group entertaining in mind, with an 83-inch Oled Smart TV in the living room, a dedicated games room complete with electronic darts, a fully equipped bar and even a popcorn machine (kids will love this). Outside, a 14-metre infinity pool appears to spill straight into the sea, while the huge rooftop terrace has a bubbling five-person jacuzzi, fire pit and outdoor kitchen. All that, and you’re just 10 minutes from a clutch of stylish nearby beach clubs, too.

The scent of fresh mint picked from the herb garden wafts throughout the outdoor space here, ready to use as an accompaniment for sunset mojitos at this peaceful Tenerife abode. The whole place couldn’t be more scenic, with five outdoor terraces fanning out among lush avocado groves, for a vibe that feels like the epitome of slow living. The grounds here rumble on from a zen meditation corner over to a waterfall infinity pool overlooking the Atlantic, and onto a wood-fired hot tub that’s perfectly positioned for front-row views of soaring Mount Teide. Inside, vaulted wood-beamed ceilings and original artwork create a warm, atmospheric feel, while an outdoor kitchen and designer fire pit are made for long, lazy evenings under the stars.

Sleeps: Eight
Price: From around £1,203 for a three-night stay

Few villas are more beautiful than this colourful haven of rich terracotta walls and botanical gardens. Swaying palms soundtracked by the soothing trickles of pond fountains transport you to an exotic paradise, while the enchanting balcony snakes around the property above. Pass through carved oak doors to find the cosy firelit lounge and small but mighty kitchen, both of which are enclosed within beamed ceilings and clay-tiled floors. Shelves filled with pasta jars and eclectic ornaments add a homely touch, and the sofa can be converted into a generously sized sofa bed for larger families. Don’t miss the rooftop terrace either, overlooking the small children’s playground and heated plunge pool below.
