Serviced Apartments in Puerto de la Cruz

Puerto de la Cruz is a town of around 30,000 permanent residents on the north coast of Tenerife. As with most sizeable towns in the Canaries, it is primarily a tourist resort and its economy is reliant upon the tens of thousands of visitors arriving each year. It is closest to the North Airport, being only around 15 miles away, but also only around a 90 minute transfer from the island’s South Airport. There is an abundance of holiday rentals in Puerto de la Cruz to book all year round.

As with the Canary Islands on the whole, average temperatures in Puerto de la Cruz are fairly consistent, with average highs ranging from 16°C in January to 26°C in August. The traditional summer period is from June to September, and this is also the driest period of the year. The town is surrounded by agricultural land, and before taking off as a tourist destination was known primarily as a farming and fishing town. Many of the holiday apartments in Puerto de la Cruz are situated close to the marina and port area, making for beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean.

Of course, many visitors book service apartments in Puerto de la Cruz to enjoy the beach lifestyle available. The main beach of the town is called Playa Jardin and is characterised by fine black sand, common in much of the Canary Islands. The beach is so named because it is overlooked by a large garden area including plenty of cacti and local flora. The beach is generally more suitable for sunbathing than swimming, especially for children, as the waves can become quite large. There are lifeguards on duty however, and this also makes for excellent watersports opportunities.

There is a popular swimming pool complex nearby called Lago Martiánez which includes seven pools and a huge artificial lake. In the middle of this lake is an artificial island, underneath which is the town's casino. This unlikely setting also includes waterfalls, tropical gardens and bridges; truly an extensive and exciting feature. The complex is easily reached from Puerto de la Cruz city centre (center) apartments and could quite easily keep you and your family happy all day.

Another of the most popular tourist attractions is Loro Parque; a huge tropical park which contains the largest collection of parrots in the world, nestling amongst over 7000 palm trees. It is also home to penguins, dolphins, tigers and gorillas and makes the price of serviced accommodation in Puerto de la Cruz worth it just for this attraction alone.
