Package holiday heaven. Invented for sunstarved people from Northern Europe to go and have fun 12 months of the year. Good thing about the weather is that it's like a good English summer all year round. Not like southern Spain when the heat in summer can get unbearable.
Concrete jungle full of hotels, bars, restaurants and clubs. Great value everywhere due to huge competition between places.
For a total contrast get a ferry from nearby Los Cristianos to the small island of la Gomera. It's cute, has Europe's only rain forest and is totally unspoilt (at the moment).
North of the island is cooler and Spain's biggest mountain (Teide) is worth a visit. Wine is beginning to get a good reputation and don't miss papas con mojo, the wrinkly new potatoes served with spicy red or green sauce.

I went a few years ago and loved it! Is totally made for tourists but good fun. I was on an all inclusive basis, but the food was only average, however the weather and gorgeous beach more than made up for it! Have fun

It's very touristic, with lots of opportunities to party... You could compare it with going to new york and starting each day in the tanningsaloon

Yes, years ago, if you get the chance go up Mount Teide - the volcano. Its what I remember most about the trip.

Spent a day there, remember the fountains that 'danced' to music more than anything.
