Overview

Altri servizi

Seven temperature controlled swimming pools are scattered throughout the sub-tropical grounds – three are for those staying in Citadel accommodation, and the remaining four are for Villa guests. The largest is the Lagoon Pool, set in the resort’s Citadel section. The Cascade Pool is a quiet option, complete with a shallow pool for little ones. If you head to the beach, it’s sheltered by manmade rocks, making it safe for swimming.

Find serenity at the 2,500 square-metre spa, where a range of water and relaxation therapies will soothe and revitalise you. Soak in the hydrotherapy pool or listen to the lapping waves of the Atlantic Ocean while enjoying a massage in the outside cabana. All spa treatments and therapies incorporate locally sourced ingredients, such as sweet-smelling, tropical papaya or soothing Aloe Vera. There’s also a herbal steam bath, a Turkish hammam, plunge pool and tranquil spa garden.

If you’re feeling active, hone your game on the beautiful 18-hole golf course while soaking up glorious ocean vistas. Perfect for advanced golfers, the varied terrain here includes 22 water hazards and white-sand bunkers. Otherwise, head to the state-of-the-art fitness centre for a workout, practise your serve at the tennis court or enjoy a jog along the trails. The hotel is perfect for cyclists, too, since you can bring your own bike or hire one from the Cycling Centre. Ask for customised maps and professional cycling tools to help you safely explore the island by bike.

The Ritz Kids’ Club is a great recreational area for children between the ages of 4 and 12 years old, available at an additional charge. It offers indoor and outdoor space, and a range of activities based on themes of water, land, environmental responsibility and culture. Kids are educated on topics ranging from coral reefs and forests, to recycling and sustainability, storytelling, art and even nutrition. Reservations must be made at least 24 hours in advance via the resort app or concierge. Children under four years of age can access the outdoor playground, Ritz Kids’ Garden and indoor planetarium when accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Informazioni per la cena

There’s a great choice of dining options here, appealing to all tastes. Begin the day with breakfast at La Veranda, where you’ll find an international buffet spread and omelette bar. Alternatively, those staying in Villa accommodation can enjoy a scenic breakfast at the clifftop restaurant, El Mirador. This ocean-facing venue opens to all guests for lunch and dinner and specialises in locally sourced seafood and paella dishes.

The Beach Club is perfect for a light lunch. Situated on the beach, this al fresco venue offers spectacular ocean views towards La Gomera Island and serves freshly prepared barbecue delights and drinks until sundown. There’s also the poolside outlet, Txoko, where you can taste local specialities, tapas and refreshments by the main pool, while Verde Mar offers fresh and local cuisine.

For dinner, don’t miss the fabulous M.B., created by the award-winning chef, Marin Berasategui. This Michelin-starred restaurant serves authentic Basque cuisine, accompanied by fine wines from the wine cellar. Or dine at Akira Back, for a modern Japanese-inspired menu with Korean influences. Additional options include a tempting Italian restaurant called Verona. Regional volcanic wines are available at most restaurants, and the Lobby Bar provides creative cocktails and live music late into the evening.

We highly recommend that reservations are made in advance, especially for the two Michelin star restaurants. Please email: RC.tfsrz.concierge@ritzcarlton.com. Guests staying on a half board basis will receive a three-course dinner in either Txoko, El Mirador, Verde Mar or Verona. Dinner can be exchanged for a two-course lunch (prior notice might be necessary) available at either Txoko, El Mirador or The Beach Club. Alternatively, a dinner credit is available in the two Michelin star restaurants. Please note that only children older than six years are allowed to dine in these two restaurants. Drinks are not included. The hotel restaurants opening times vary depending on the season and may close without notice for long periods of time.

On New Year’s Eve, dinner is replaced by a gala dinner and is included on all board bases. If you’re staying in a Villa, you’ll have a gala dinner in El Mirador and if you’re staying in Citadel accommodation, you’ll have a gala dinner in the main building (the venue is to be confirmed). Both venues will offer the same menu and gala dinner reservations will be automatically generated at the time of booking accommodation.
