Meliá Jardines del Teide

Why it’s great:

Meliá Jardines del Teide is built into a hillside overlooking Costa Adeje and offers sweeping panoramic views of the ocean and the surrounding landscape. The layout is modern, airy and beautifully landscaped with palm trees, cacti gardens and tiered terraces that feel both scenic and relaxing.

It is adults-only, creating a calm and contemporary environment ideal for romantic stays. The design is modern-Mediterranean, with clean white buildings, airy communal spaces and stylish pool terraces.

Couples can enjoy spacious rooms (many with sea views), an infinity-style pool area, intimate lounges and a refined dining setup. The hotel is close to the beach, but far enough up the hill to offer privacy and spectacular lookout points.

Best for:

• Couples who want a romantic but more affordable luxury experience.

• Small, modern weddings — beautiful views without the ultra-luxury price tag.

• Modern-design lovers — the architecture and décor suit couples wanting a contemporary feel.

• Wedding groups with mixed budgets — stylish but accessible.

• Couples wanting peace and adults-only tranquillity without being secluded from Costa Adeje’s attractions.
