The fifth at Golf Las Américas sets the tone early. This par-three can demand a carry of around 180 yards over water, although the ground to the right offers a more conservative line for those who prefer to keep a big number off the card. Across 18 holes and 6,618 yards from the full measurement, the par 72 course uses its gently sloping amphitheatre setting well, with ravines and lakes regularly influencing club selection. John Jacobs Associates designed a layout that rewards sensible positioning rather than relentless power. Water returns at the 13th, where the green sits beyond a lake from the tee, and the closing par-five measures 512 yards from the back tees, with a lake waiting to the right as the hole approaches the green.
Afterwards, lockers, towels and changing rooms make it easy to freshen up before settling onto the clubhouse terrace overlooking the course. The restaurant serves breakfast from the morning, followed by sandwiches, salads, snacks and lunch, with indoor seating as well as the large terrace.
Set between Playa de las Américas and Los Cristianos on Tenerife’s south coast, the course works particularly well for a holiday where golf shares the itinerary with beach time, restaurants and evenings out. Tenerife South Airport is the practical arrival point, and the warm year-round climate, with average temperatures promoted at 23°C, makes early tee times and relaxed afternoons on the coast a straightforward combination.
