Gladiux Show
Guargacho
Must-try dishes
When you arrive at Xanadú and are seated for the Gladiux Show, you know the night is going to be lively. The stage is spacious, open-air or semi-open, and from the very first moment, the atmosphere transports you to the gladiatorial arena: the sounds of horses, armor, powerful music… Meanwhile, you're at your table with dinner included, drinks, and the anticipation of the show to come.
Dinner plays a key role: it's not just watching something, it's eating while you eat. The menu is set and usually includes grilled meats, local sides like potatoes with mojo sauce, unlimited drinks during the meal, and all with views of the southern Tenerife landscape. While you dine, mounted gladiators ride, fight, and compete, and the audience cheers, laughs, and participates. It's a blend of dinner, show, and entertainment that makes the experience stand out from a typical night out at a restaurant.
The audience is diverse: couples seeking a special evening, groups of friends looking for fun, and families (within permitted age ranges) wanting a unique experience. The staging is impressive, featuring improvisation, audience interaction, lighting, sound, and horses. It's a dynamic experience focused on having a good time, being surprised, and leaving with a lasting memory.
What sets the Gladiux Show apart is precisely this combination of live entertainment, themed dinner, and a festive atmosphere in a setting that's neither purely a restaurant nor purely a theater, but both. If you're in Tenerife and want a dinner that becomes an experience—not just "eat and that's it"—you'll love this show. Go with enthusiasm, smile, cheer, and let yourself be swept away by the sand, the horses, and the night.

Where to eat
Il Gelato del Mercato
If you're craving some delicious gelato while strolling through Los Cristianos, Il Gelato del Mercato is a must-stop. Here, the focus is on Italian-style gelato, with intense flavors and a wonderfully creamy texture. It's perfect for a quick treat while exploring the area, offering both classic options and more original creations that are sure to surprise.
What to see
La Hoya
The hamlet of La Hoya, in San Miguel de Abona, is one of those places that helps you understand what life was like in southern Tenerife before tourism. Declared a Site of Cultural Interest as an Ethnological Site, it preserves traditional architecture, historic paths, water sources, and agricultural terraces in a rural setting that has changed very little over time.
Activities
Tunolandia Canarias
This is a distinctive plan on the island of Tenerife across all the playa and hotels, Tunolandia is one of these curiosities that are so popular. In the Valle de San Lorenzo, this space consists of a variety of tuneras, gastronomy, tradition and products based on high pico. Aquí puedes pasear entre cactus gigantes, probar mermeladas, licores o mojo de tuno y descubrir una cara mucho más rural y diferente del sur de la isla.
Beaches
Playa de los Cristianos Puerto
Los Cristianos Beach, next to the port of the same name, is one of the most iconic beaches in southern Tenerife. Protected from the waves by the pier, it offers calm waters and golden sand, perfect for swimming and strolling. From the shore, you can observe the activity of the fishing port and the departure of ferries to La Gomera, combining a local atmosphere with the maritime charm of a traditional coastal town.
Nightlife
King Of Judah Reggae Bar
If you're looking for a bar with its own unique personality in Los Cristianos, King of Judah Reggae Bar is probably one of the most distinctive you'll find. Here, everything revolves around reggae culture, handcrafted cocktails, and an atmosphere that feels more Caribbean than touristy. The music, the largely handmade decor, and the friendly service create a very special ambiance where it's easy to stay much longer than you planned.
Shopping
Miel Tament
Tament, which means "honey" in the Amazigh language, is an artisanal gem produced on the same estate that makes Nevales de Abona wine, using Canarian black bees. It is multifloral, pure, and deep golden in color, with a smooth texture and balanced sweetness. Although it doesn't have an official organic seal, it is produced using sustainable and traditional methods. Like the wines, this product can only be found at the San Isidro Farmers Market, at Elsa's stand.
Sports
Zona de calistenia en el Puerto de San Miguel
The Calistenia area of Puerto de San Miguel, in Amarilla Golf, is one of these locations that offers a complete experience. The park is beautiful and not particularly large, but it is just outside the sea, just like the port of sports, as it can be seen with views of the boats, the ocean and the volcanic landscape on the Costa Sur. A very tranquil location for outdoor activities in the more urban atmosphere of other parks.
Trekking
Sendero Montaña Roja
Walking the circular route that starts in El Médano and heads toward Montaña Roja is like stepping into an otherworldly volcanic landscape: reddish sand, deep blue sea, and the wind that caresses you with every step. You can see World War II bunkers, aquatic birds, and panoramic views of the southern part of the island. You'll love it if you're looking for an easy hike with that "reconnect with nature" feel in southern Tenerife.
