The Ritz-Carlton Tenerife, Abama

At the Ritz-Carlton in Tenerife, there are stars in the sky – thanks to the volcanic island’s clear air and altitude – and (Michelin) stars on your plate, courtesy of M.B’s mastery of Basque cuisine and Akira Back’s theatrical take on Japanese food. The dusty pink palace in Abama has seven pools, a super spa and a terrace at the gym for spin classes with a view. The resort is also home to the biggest Ritz Kids club in Europe.
