La Manigua

3.5(462 reviews)

About

La Manigua, on Tenerife, occupies Av. Francisco la Roche, 53, 38001 Santa Cruz de Tenerife, in the island's capital. First-time visitors should expect a bar in the city centre rather than a resort strip, so the crowd and the pace follow Santa Cruz rather than the southern coast. A rating of 3.5 out of 5 from 462 reviews gives a mixed but well-used picture of the place. Reaching it from the southern resorts means a drive or bus ride up the motorway to Santa Cruz, while Puerto de la Cruz lies west along the northern coast. Santa Cruz is the island's transport hub, with connections onward to La Laguna and the airport. Canarian cooking is built around fresh seafood, goat cheese, and papas arrugadas served with mojo sauce, and the city's bars sit close to that tradition. Spanish is the main language, spoken with a distinctive Canarian accent and vocabulary, which is worth knowing when ordering. Trade winds known as the alisios keep temperatures moderate, and Saharan dust sometimes arrives in a calima.
