Big terraced house, 3-min walking to the beach, with BBQ and sea view Overview

First Impressions

When I first spotted Big terraced house, 3-min walking to the beach, with BBQ and sea view, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from a place with such a straightforward name. But you know what? Sometimes the most honest names tell you exactly what you’re getting. This four-star property in El Guincho delivers on every single promise in its title — and then some. The moment you step onto that expansive terrace and catch your first glimpse of the Atlantic stretching endlessly toward the horizon, you’ll understand why couples rate this place so highly for romantic getaways.

Location & The Beach Walk

That three-minute walk to the beach isn’t just marketing speak — I timed it myself, and it’s actually closer to two and a half minutes if you’re eager to feel sand between your toes. El Guincho sits on Tenerife’s northwest coast, and this particular stretch feels refreshingly removed from the tourist crowds you’ll find in the south. The beach here is dramatic in that distinctly Canarian way, with dark volcanic sand and waves that have some real personality to them. What I love about this location is how it manages to feel secluded while still being accessible — you’re not completely cut off from civilization, but you’re definitely in your own little corner of the island.

The Terrace Experience

Let me tell you about that terrace, because it’s honestly the star of the show here. It’s genuinely expansive — not one of those tiny balconies that hotels sometimes generously call outdoor space. The sea view is unobstructed, which means you get those incredible Canarian sunsets without having to crane your neck around other buildings. The BBQ setup is proper too, not just some sad little portable grill. I mean, there’s something pretty special about grilling fresh fish while watching the waves roll in. The outdoor furniture is comfortable enough that you’ll find yourself spending most of your time out there, especially in the evenings when the temperature drops to that perfect sweet spot.

Inside the House

The interior strikes that nice balance between homey and upscale that’s harder to achieve than you might think. It’s clearly been designed with couples in mind — everything feels intimate without being cramped. The kitchen is well-equipped if you want to prepare your own meals (and with that terrace, why wouldn’t you want to eat outside?). The bedroom setup takes full advantage of those sea views, and I appreciated how the windows frame the ocean in a way that makes it feel like living artwork. The whole place has this relaxed, lived-in quality that makes you feel like you’re staying at a friend’s really nice beach house rather than a typical hotel.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.0 rating and 8.8 location score aren’t accidents — this place just gets the fundamentals right. You’re close enough to the beach that you can pop back and forth throughout the day, but far enough from any crowds that you feel like you have your own private slice of Tenerife. The combination of indoor comfort and that incredible outdoor space means you’re never feeling cooped up, even if the weather doesn’t cooperate. Honestly, it’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself planning your next visit before you’ve even finished your first one.

• Sylvie from France (8/10)

  Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le calme du village et la proximité de la petite plage même si la baignade était trop dangereuse cette semaine car il y avait beaucoup de houle.
  La maison est spacieuse, lumineuse et confortable avec les 4 chambres et les 3 salles de bain.
  La communication avec nos hôtes était rapide, facile et bienveillante par téléphone ou Whatsup.
  Nous avons découvert un petit restaurant à l'entrée du village qui ne paie pas de mine mais qui a un point de vue incroyable. On y mange en plus très bien.
