Petrin
About
Petrin serves Tenerife from 38618 Granadilla, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, in the south of the island. Granadilla sits inland from the coast, within reach of the main resorts and towns along the southern shore.
Visitors have left 308 reviews, and the 4.5 out of 5 average places it among the better-regarded addresses of its kind on the island. Costa Adeje, Playa de las Américas and Los Cristianos lie to the west, while Santa Cruz, La Laguna and Puerto de la Cruz sit further north. El Médano and Los Gigantes are also within reach by road.
Canarian cooking is built around fresh seafood, goat cheese and papas arrugadas served with mojo sauce, and the timple, a small five-string instrument, features in folk music alongside guitars. Summer runs from June to September and is the hottest and busiest season, while winter stays warm enough for the beach.
Granadilla's inland position means the drive from the coastal resorts passes through the island's southern landscape. The main islands were home to the Guanche people before Spanish conquest in the fifteenth century, a history that still shapes place names across Tenerife. For a first visit, the southern towns and resorts provide the most direct routes to this part of the island.
