Hotel description
On a private estate in a little known
part of the largest Canary Island, is the superb Abama Golf &
Spa Resort. Set in the world famous archipelago's volcanic
landscapes, with Atlantic views across to the island of La Gomera
and more hours of sunshine than anywhere else in Spain, this gem of
a destination offers perfect seclusion and wonderful luxury.
The 476 guest rooms are divided between
Club Rooms and Suites, each offering superb accommodation with a
distinctly Moorish feel. Bed linens are exquisite 300-thread count
Egyptian cotton or cool natural linen and the marble tiled
bathrooms have separate showers and sumptuous towels.
Dining information
And speaking of dining, from the good
honest rustic cooking of Italy and Argentina at Pampa Verona to the
creativity in the signature restaurant, M.B., where
Michelin-starred Martin Berasategui takes the cuisine of his Basque
origins, eating at Abama is a truly memorable experience. In all,
the thirteen restaurants and bars cater for all tastes whether you
are looking for quick but tasty snack to get you through the day or
a gastronomic experience that lasts the whole evening.
Amenities
The seven swimming pools and two
natural pools offer plenty of variety for swimmers while the Dave
Thomas designed golf course with its 22 lakes, impressive
waterfalls and 25,000 palm trees offers superb views and
challenging sport to players of all abilities. For tennis players
there are seven pro-standard courts featuring court lights and
flexi-pave surfacing while the Abama Sanchez Casal Tennis Academy
offers lessons catering to everyone from beginners to highly
skilled.
If you want to take things more slowly,
the spa has an enticing range of rituals and treatments based on
North African, Turkish and Far Eastern health and wellness
traditions, using aromatic herbs and local fruits such banana and
papaya, volcanic stone and marine algaes. The Abama Total Wellness
Programme offers a holistic service that encompasses treatments,
exercise and nutrition.
