Boasting year-round warm weather and sandy beaches, it's the perfect spot for soaking up some sun.
When it comes to a girls' holiday, everything is taken care of, with duty-free shops, great tapas restaurants, a waterpark on the doorstep and the upmarket resort of Los Cristianos just next door.
On a night out, start off at the Starco Centre, which is packed with bars. Later you can head over the road to Veronicas strip, where clubs keep going until six in the morning.
Stay at the Vanilla Garden Boutique Hotel, an adults-only hotel five minutes' walk from Playa de las Americas and sandy beaches.

The adults-only hotel just had a makeover and is perfect for an Instagram post. Palm trees surround the hotel swimming pool, along with umbrellas, sunbeds and a pool bar. And there's often a poolside DJ playing chilled-out tunes.

Tenerife, Costa Adeje
If you fancy a bit of celeb spotting, style and glamour on your next girl's trip, try Costa Adeje.
The town is filled with luxury villas, five-star hotels, designer shopping and waterfront restaurants - and it even has its own waterfall.
You could spend your days exploring the Plaza del Duque mall, which has three floors of shops, including the only Cartier store in Tenerife, and hitting Playa del Duque, one of the most stylish beaches in the Canaries.
It’s got 500 metres of pristine sand dotted with sun loungers, palm-leaf parasols and changing cabins. The landscaped stroll nearby has cafes offering everything from ice creams to seafood platters.
This town is great for a laidback holiday – though the party bars and clubs of Playa de las Americas are just a stone's throw away too.
Our pick here is the Guayarmina Princess Hotel, which has sea views, a wellness centre and smart interiors.
An adults-only hotel, it's just a short taxi ride from the beaches of Costa Adeje and has a lovely pool and a couple of bars.
If you splash out for a junior suite, you'll have access to the hotel’s luxe Platinum area, where there's an infinity pool, plus an extra restaurant and bar.

Ibiza, Playa D’en Bossa
Playa d’en Bossa is an all-rounder with sunsets, boho vibes and bars. The clubs have a reputation around the Balearic Islands – with names like Ushuaia and Bora Bora – but it also comes with a great waterpark and the longest beach on the island.
Nail the hippie-chic Ibiza look at the bars and restaurants on the beachfront - many have boutiques selling kaftans, sarongs and bikinis.
The area's beach bars start to come to life at 4.30 pm, with a mixed crowd of Premiership footballers to local Ibizans.
Stay at the Ibiza Twiins, which was fully revamped last year. There's a massive pool that faces the ocean, three restaurants and a spa with a free-to-use gym.
The hotel is right on the seafront of lively Playa d’en Bossa beach, which offers waterfront bars, surfing and volleyball.

Zante, Kalamaki
On the southern shores of Zante, Kalamaki is ideal for groups who like a bit of peace and quiet. It’s a traditional Greek village full of olive groves and home to Insta-worthy beaches.
Loggerhead turtles come to lay their eggs on the soft sand here - you can even book a Turtle Island Cruise to see them yourself. Otherwise, you can spend days chilling at the pool and tucking into delicious Greek food.
You can stay at the Hotel Bitzaro Palace, a chilled-out retreat with a beach, bars and restaurants nearby.
The hotel is a mix of modern decor and traditional design - think a stylish pool deck with classic Greek white walls and draped pink flowers.
There's low-key entertainment on a couple of nights a week, but if you’re after something livelier, you can stroll to the centre of Kalamaki in 10 minutes or head to Zakynthos Town, a fifteen-minute taxi ride away.

Marmaris, Turkey
Marmaris is larger than your average resort, so it’s not surprising it has a lot more to offer.
Set on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast, it’s got a smart marina and an old town with a historic castle, as well as all the modern restaurants, bars and lively clubs you’d expect.
At the beach, as well as sunbathing, you can also try out jet-skiing.
You could stay at Club Adakoy Resort, which has its own private beach and is within easy reach of shops, restaurants and bars.
It's based on the Adakoy Peninsula, with rooms that look out over the coast, mountains or gardens.
There's a sea-view pool and a restaurant as well as a bar and a spa.

Croatia, Brac Island
Brac is the biggest island in central Dalmatia and is famous for its endless options of activities and wine tasting.
You could head off to one of the state-of-the-art wineries and sip your way through the island's best white and red wines.
Located on Brac Island, The Waterman Kaktus Resort offers a diverse range of activities, and it's only a few minutes away from the beach.
There's everything from relaxing facilities like spas, massages and saunas to activities such as scuba diving and watersports.
There are two restaurants and a lobby bar for after-dinner drinks. Wi-fi and air-conditioning are also available in all rooms.

Majorca, Palma Nova
The waterfront in Palma Nova is filled with cafés, shops, restaurants, and beautiful sandy beaches.
The crystal clear is host to plenty of boat trips and water sports. Plus, you'll find waterparks, golf courses, spas, bike excursions, live performances, and nightclubs.
The Globales Palma Nova Palace is perfect for girls who want to enjoy the nightlife as well as make the most of the resort's facilities.
The resort is close to three beaches and lots of restaurants. The terrace has sun loungers and a pool, which is often the setting for hotel-run games.
The pool also has an alfresco bar to grab bites and drinks in the sunshine. The resort is only a ten-minute drive from the centre of Magaluf, where you’ll find bars and mega clubs.
BCM Planet Dance is the biggest club on the island, and it's only a short drive away from the hotel.
