Abama Resort – One of the Best Kept Secrets

Today we are introducing you to the sumptuous Abama Resort in Tenerife. The secret is out, and it is time to draw your attention to this secluded paradise. The resort is tucked away in a corner of the island and is ready for you to discover.

We have spoken about Tenerife as a golf destination before on the blog. This is a year-round golf paradise and one of the world’s true luxury retreats.

Golf at the Abama Resort

The golf course at Abama was designed by the late Dave Thomas and, at number 20 in the All Square Top 100 courses of Spain, it is one of his masterpieces. In designing the course, Thomas used the stunning scenery as the perfect backdrop to highlight the quality of the holes on display. With over 25,000 palm trees and 22 lakes adorning the course, this is no pushover. It’s a fair test of golf and a fun resort course. At around 6,700m, it isn’t a monster course but a premium is certainly put on accuracy. The perfectly white bunkers sit proud like jewels decorating the fairways and greens and, while you’ll want to avoid them, they make a great frame for the holes. The other highlight of the track at Abama is the waterfalls that link the lakes. This course is as fun as it is photogenic.

Once you’ve finished your golf, the incredible Abama resort awaits you. This secluded paradise is just what you need to forget about the stresses of modern life. When you are in Abama, time slows down a little. As a guest at the resort, the attentive staff are there to ensure your wishes are catered for. The resort provides you with the best of both worlds. You can explore Guía de Isora, on the island of Tenerife and the surrounding area, or you can just stay on the resort and relax to your hearts content. From tennis and boutiques to Michelin-starred dining, Abama has everything you’ll need.
