Melia Hacienda del Conde Buenavista, Tenerife The luxurious Melia Hacienda del Conde is in Buenavista in the north of Tenerife. This adult only resort has spectacular ocean views and is popular with golfers due to its location next to the Buenavista Golf Course. The course has a number of tee positions making it ideal for all abilities and water comes in to play on a number of holes, especially the 15th and 17th, which require a shot over the edge of a cliff face.

On arrival at Buenavista the vista out over the hotel and golf course is stunning. The course looks so inviting to play and you will be very impressed with this Seve Ballesteros Design and the natural beauty of this part of Tenerife.
