Located at the rugged northern tip of Tenerife in Punta del Hidalgo, Anaga Resort is far more than just a place to stay—it is a gateway to a prehistoric world.

What makes this resort truly interesting is its deep personal history. Founded in the late 1980s by Elisabeth, a Dutch traveler who fell in love with the island’s "magic," the resort was built literally from the first brick by its owners. This legacy of passion has fostered a unique "big family" atmosphere where guests often return for decades, drawn by the warmth of a home rather than the coldness of a corporate hotel.

The resort sits on the doorstep of the Anaga Rural Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. This area is home to one of the world’s last remaining Laurisilva forests—a "living fossil" from the Tertiary Period that once covered most of Europe. Staying here means you are minutes away from hiking through misty, ancient jungles and discovering the highest concentration of endemic species in Europe.

After exploring the "Enchanted Forest," guests can retreat to the resort’s saltwater pool or the Bougainvillea Wellness Center. With views stretching from the Atlantic waves to the towering peak of Mount Teide, Anaga Resort offers a rare blend of authentic Canarian heritage and raw, untamed nature. It is the perfect sanctuary for those who prefer the sound of the ocean and the whisper of ancient trees over the neon lights of the south.
