Christmas at Bahía del Duque, one of Tenerife’s best luxury hotels, located in Costa Adeje, is much more than a season: it is a journey through aromas, feelings, emotions, and unique moments that we hope will remain forever etched in your memory. With our special programme designed to turn these dates into something unforgettable, we invite you to immerse yourself in a world of fun-filled celebrations.
Christmas Eve: Tradition and Haute Cuisine in Tenerife
On Christmas Eve, the holiday spirit blends with culinary art at Bahía del Duque’s restaurants.
The exclusive menu at La Brasserie by Pierre Résimont is sure to seduce you. Enjoy this culinary experience devised by our chef, whose restaurant L’Eau Vive in Belgium has been awarded two Michelin stars and was recently named by ‘La Liste’ as one of the best restaurants in the world, ranking 13th. It’s a proposal that combines the most traditional ingredients of this season with the sophistication of French cuisine, including such representative dishes as Sole meunière.
For that magical evening, every gastronomic corner of the hotel will contribute something unique, with Christmas specialities on offer that add to the regular menus. Thus, Christmas dishes will be served from the cultures that inspired the normal menus, allowing our guests to try holiday delights from different parts of the world.
For those who prefer to spend their night in the privacy and comfort of their room, we have designed a special Christmas menu that will be served by our room service team featuring creations as delicate and sophisticated as scallop tartar with citrus fruit and tobiko.
New Year’s Eve: Glamour from “The Cotton Club by BDD”
Ring out 2024 like never before at our traditional New Year’s Eve Grand Gala, one of the best New Year’s Eve events in Tenerife. This year’s inspiration comes from the splendour of the cabaret of the 1920s and the iconic film The Cotton Club. Enjoy a culinary offering that evokes the elegance of the period, featuring delicacies such as Imperial caviar, turbot, and Friesian beef stuffed with foie gras – all paired with select wines and champagnes. Every dish is a work of art meant for celebration.
The gala will recreate the cabaret atmosphere with exquisite décor, themed costumes, and live musical performances featuring saxophonists, a ballet, and shows inspired by the film.
We have also thought about those guests looking for a more relaxed experience. For them, our à la carte restaurants will offer special menus and a more family-oriented, subdued atmosphere.
Guests can also opt for a more private celebration thanks to the exquisite New Year’s Eve menu that we have prepared to be ordered to the room.
Welcome 2025: Let’s Kick Off the Year in Style
Just like every year, on January 2 we hold our traditional New Year’s barbecue in which our hotel will be turned into a setting worthy of Hollywood thanks to our theme this year: the Wild West. This is the ideal event for the whole family, where adults and children alike will have a blast.
Speaking of the food, noteworthy is the following:a selection of cuts of meat imported from the United States such as the rib, tomahawk, and ribeye, all served with roasted vegetables. And, of course, diners will also have the chance to taste the classic barbecued corn on the cob. For those with a sweet tooth, the dessert section will feature iconic delights like apple pie and red velvet cake. There will additionally be options just for the little ones, like big burgers, hot dogs, and ice cream.
Nobody will leave without first immersing themselves in the cowboy atmosphere, as the décor will feature bales of hay, cacti, and cowboy hats and there will be live music to enjoy thanks to the spectacular show put on by La Maquinaria Band.
