Gran Hotel Taoro

Spain's first grand luxury hotel sits on a hillside in Tenerife rather than Madrid, which feels like the kind of thing Agatha Christie would have arranged, and she did stay here. The neoclassical bones are still intact; the rooms now run to clean whites and local art, with Atlantic views that haven't changed. Multiple restaurants and bars, a wellness area, and a concierge team that plans bespoke island experiences round out this storied resort.
