Your driver takes you straight to your hotel, apartment or villa, without stops for other passengers. This is a short ride, so most travellers are at the hotel reception well within an hour of collecting their bags.
How long does it take from Tenerife South Airport to Costa Adeje?
The transfer follows the TF-1 motorway west along the dry southern slopes of the island, passing the turn-offs for Los Cristianos and Playa de las Américas. Costa Adeje begins where Playa de las Américas ends, so the motorway part is quick and the final minutes are spent on resort roads.
Allow 16–20 minutes in normal conditions. In the late afternoon, traffic around the resort exits can be slower, but the price stays the same.
Where the hotels in Costa Adeje are
Costa Adeje is spread out along several kilometres of coast. Fañabé, Torviscas and Playa del Duque line the beaches, La Caleta is a smaller former fishing village further north-west, and some hotels and villas sit higher up the hillside with sea views.
Many of the larger resort hotels have their own driveways and entrances. Giving the full hotel name and address when you book helps the driver take you to the right door.
