Surfer’s Beach Apartment

Surfer’s Beach Apartment Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Surfer’s Beach Apartment in La Tejita, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from this four-star spot. The building sits quietly on Calle Balboa, and there’s something refreshingly low-key about it — no flashy lobby or doormen, just a clean, modern apartment complex that feels more like a local secret than a tourist trap. The free parking right on site was actually a relief, because finding a spot near the beach in this part of Tenerife can be a real headache during peak season.

Location & Neighborhood

You know what really sold me on this place? The location is absolutely spot-on for beach lovers. La Tejita beach is literally a few minutes’ walk away, and it’s one of those stretches of sand that locals still use — you’ll see families having picnics and surfers checking the waves rather than just rows of tourist umbrellas. The area feels authentically Canarian, with small bars and local shops scattered around. I mean, couples rate the location 9.6 out of 10, and after spending time here, I totally get why.

The Apartment Experience

The room itself surprised me — it’s more spacious than the photos suggest, with a proper kitchenette that actually works well if you want to grab groceries from the local market and cook something simple. The balcony overlooks the neighborhood, and on clear days you can catch glimpses of the ocean. Everything feels clean and well-maintained, though the decor is pretty straightforward — think modern but not fancy. The air conditioning works well, which matters more than you’d think when the afternoon sun hits these apartments.

Beach Life & Activities

What I really loved about staying here was how easy it became to slip into a proper beach routine. La Tejita has this relaxed vibe where you can actually spread out without fighting for space, and the waves are decent if you’re into surfing or just want to mess around in the water. There’s a chiringuito (beach bar) that serves solid fish and cold beer, and the sunsets from this stretch of coast are honestly pretty spectacular. The whole area feels less developed than some other parts of Tenerife, which gives it this slightly wild, authentic feel.

Why Guests Love It

After a few days here, I understood why this place gets such high ratings from recent guests. It’s not trying to be something it’s not — just a comfortable, well-located base for people who want to experience Tenerife’s southern coast without all the resort nonsense. The combination of being close to an excellent beach, having your own space with cooking facilities, and being in a neighborhood that feels real rather than touristy creates this perfect balance. Plus, the fact that you can park easily and walk to the beach means you’re not constantly dealing with logistics — you can just focus on enjoying yourself.

Apartments in Tenerife provide travelers with authentic local experiences, allowing them to explore traditional Canarian restaurants and experience daily life in charming villages like Garachico and Puerto de la Cruz.
