Tenerife Tourism Corporation has sought to rekindle the emotions experienced by millions of travellers dreaming of enjoying the landscapes, beaches, gastronomic delights and leisure activities so unique to the island.

Guests at the H10 Costa Adeje Palace Hotel in Tenerife have been locked down after a visiting Italian doctor tested positive for coronavirus. Hundreds of guests at the Canary Islands property were initially told to stay in their rooms as medical tests were carried out.

Taking up the role today, de Clerck will oversee strategic direction and daily operations across the 459-key resort, while strengthening reputation across its exceptional leisure facilities.

As Tenerife seeks to move away from its hedonistic reputation, Carlos Alonso, president of the island, gives Breaking Travel News details of how he plans to refashion the tourism industry by 2030. Speaking at World Travel Market in London, he also tells us how important the UK is as a source market for the destination.

Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands, will soon become more accessible to UK holiday-makers, with British Airways announcing its largest Tenerife schedule in history.

Official figures released by the Tenerife Tourism Corporation show that the largest of the Canary Islands welcomed a total of 2,064,743 visitors from the UK last year, the highest number ever recorded.
