The Winter Season has flown past in what feels like a blink of an eye as, here at Tenerife Property Shop, our Team have been busy, busy, busy, trying to keep up with the demand for properties from clients across Europe, and further afield.
We are happy to report that business is definitely back to pre-Covid & Brexit days, and demand for properties is as high as ever.
With this in mind, if you have a property here, and are thinking of possibly selling to upgrade, downgrade, or just have a change, the TPS Team would be happy to have a no obligation chat, to discuss your options, and provide a free valuation.
With over 37 years in the business, and a reputation to challenge all others, we are here to help.
Well, the Summer has hit with a force, in the form of a heatwave, with temperatures in July exceeding the normal 25ºC, and maxing out at a balmy 38ºC.
But don’t let this put you off, we certainly don’t! Life in Tenerife is designed to work around these temperatures, and even take advantage of them. We have cooling tiled floors, huge patio windows to exploit the fresh sea breezes, ceiling fans, and even air conditioning, all of which help to take the edge off the heat … oh and don’t forget the cocktails!
Of course, with the heat comes one of the main attractions to our beautiful island, THE SUN, and all the fantastic benefits that go with it – Beaches, Boat trips, Water parks, Jet skis, Sunbathing, Cocktails, etc, etc, etc. The list is endless.
Life in the sun certainly has its advantages.
So, if you fancy a bit of Sunshine in your life, check out some of our New Listings below.
We aren’t just about the sun & beach life, we also take great pride in the cultural history and traditions of our Island which come with the start of the summer, you can see some of the examples below.
Sand Carpets of Corpus Christi Across the Island – June 2023
Romeria de San Benito La Laguna – July 2023
The Day of the Chirche Traditions Chirche – July 2023
What is clear from our recent enquiries, is that no two clients requirements are the same. Small studios to palatial mansions, sea front to mountain retreats, family friendly to remote hideaways, brand new builds to renovation projects, permanent living to holiday getaway, everyone has their own ideals.
Our website has been designed with this in mind, to make your search as easy as possible, so we invite you to browse our portfolio to start hunting for that dream property!
The area of Golf del Sur apart from being a golfer’s paradise, also offers local facilities that make it very suitable for families of all ages. A trip to see the coastal underwater world can be taken on the Yellow Submarine that is moored in the Marina at Amarilla Golf and that could be followed by a good meal and a glass of wine in one of the restaurants along the promenade that offer all types of cuisine, catering for the young as well as the not so young. Ideally situated for golf courses, close to shops, restaurants, bars and a short stroll along the seafront to Los Abrigos with its charming harbour & fish restaurants. Other facilities like Green Bowls, Tennis and Horse Riding are available locally for your enjoyment meaning there is always something for the rest of the family to do.
Perfect for golfers or non–golfers alike, Tenerife’s ocean front resort of Golf Del Sur offers championship golf, beautiful scenery, great bars and restaurants, lively entertainment or simple peace and tranquility.
Golf del Sur is part of the municipality of San Miguel de Abona and is built around an 18 hole golf course. The streets are lined with sub-tropical palms and flowering plants which add to the charm of the resort.
There is a commercial centre, CC San Blas, made up of 80 businesses where, shops, bars, restaurants, supermarkets, medical facilities and a church can all be found… It’s here at CC San Blas that the resort nightlife takes place around the main square.
During the day, if you’re not out playing golf, you’ll find a reasonable selection of souvenir shops, supermarkets, and a selection of restaurants and bars. There is also a medical center and very convenient chemist close to the main clubhouse.
The nightlife of Playa de Las Americas is only a taxi journey away. As well as golf, the resort has tennis courts, gymnasiums, a bowling green and each individual complex has a communal swimming pool.
As a long term objective, the San Miguel de Abona municipal council do plan the creation of an artificial beach in the town.
The intention is to improve the accessibility between the two tourist areas and encourage the use of bicycles.
In addition to the connection enhancements, major work has also begun on improving the promenade of Amarilla Golf. The current rugged pathway sits between the far stretching fairways of the golf course that gaze up to the glorious national park of Mount Teide and the San Miguel Marina, which offers a fabulous location to enjoy a cool refreshment in a stylish bar, sat atop of the harbour master’s office, where one can watch the marine world go by and listen to the breeze as it tantalises the sails and masts of the armada bobbing below.
New walkways are currently in construction, which once complete will be flourishing with plants and flowers all natural to Tenerife but most importantly the vast improvements will ensure the frontline is accessible to all and we can all enjoy the rocky coves and natural habitat that sits below and marvel at the dramatic spray of the Atlantic Ocean coming face to face with the craggy shoreline.
The idea behind the beach is that Golf Del Sur and Amarilla Golf, will soon be able to offer both residents and guests alike, an alternative leisure activity to the communal pools that feature in all the hotels and developments in both locations but above all else, they will finally be able to provide a safe swimming and bathing environment, in what can sometimes be a hazardous surrounding for those not familiar with this stretch of the Ocean and the underlying power the sparkling sea can possess.
The new beach will offer a solarium, toilet facilities, showers, waste baskets and of course no beach would be complete without a sun bed and an umbrella.
All the aforementioned projects carry a total investment amount of three million euros, which is the largest investment made in the areas for many years and illustrates the desire to show that there is more to this little pocket of greenery than just Golf.
But it goes without saying, the icing on the cake for the area of Golf del Sur has got to be the spectacular sunrises … simply breathtaking!
If you are looking to purchase or sell a property in the Golf del Sur area, please call us today and we will be more than happy to help!

WHAT ARE THE RULES FOR UK PASSPORT HOLDERS ENTERING THE EU?
Following recent confusion, and some tourists being refused travel, it is important to check when your passport expires, as rules have changed since Brexit. You might assume that your passport is valid up to the expiry date. But this isn’t always the case.
Pre Brexit, UK passport holders could freely travel across Europe up to and including the expiry date shown on their passports. However, the UK is now classified by the EU a ‘third country’ and therefore UK passport holders are ‘third country nationals’, and therefore face different rules
For a UK passport holder to visit the EU, they will need a valid passport, and MUST ensure that it meets BOTH of the following rules:
the passport MUST have been issued within 10 YEARS of the day you enter the EU country
the expiry date MUST be valid for a minimum of 3 MONTHS* after the date of departure from the EU country
* Although the rules are 3 months validity for the Schengen countries (which includes most EU countries plus Switzerland, Norway, and Iceland), some countries which require a visa for entry do have a 6 month validity rule, so the UK Government does suggest sticking to 6 months validity to ensure you are covered.
