In the heart of Tenerife, far from the noise of the coast, stands a refuge designed for regeneration and high performance: the Hotel Spa Villalba, in Vilaflor.
Here we understand that, for an athlete, recovery is not a luxury, it is a strategy. That is why we have turned every corner of the hotel into a true Recovery Hub: a space where body, mind and energy align to optimise performance.
An Unrivalled Environment for High Performance.
Vilaflor: The Hidden Value of Altitude Training
Our location in Vilaflor, the highest municipality in the Canary Islands, offers a physiological benefit that few destinations can match.
At 1,500 metres above sea level, the body adapts to an environment with lower oxygen levels, improving cardiovascular efficiency and oxygen transport capacity. This phenomenon, known as hypoxic adaptation, makes Spa Villalba the perfect base for cyclists, trail runners and triathletes looking to improve their performance.
Training and Trekking: Direct Connection to the Corona Forestal
From the hotel door, guests have direct access to the Corona Forestal del Teide, a natural paradise that connects to such iconic routes as the GR-131 or the trail to the Paisaje Lunar.
This privileged location allows you to combine technical training sessions with moments of total relaxation among pine forests and fresh air.
Our fully equipped gym complements the experience, offering the possibility to maintain strength, mobility and stability even after the most demanding workouts.
Beyond Massage: The Elite ‘Sports Line’.
Massages: Immediate Relief from Muscle Tension.
At the Spa Villalba hotel, we work with a simple principle: recovery is part of training.
Each session is aimed at reducing fatigue, improving mobility and preparing the body for the next challenge.
Among our most popular therapies:
- Sports massage: using deep pressure and assisted stretching techniques, ideal after intense cycling or running sessions.
- Decontracting massage: focused on the neck, back and legs, it helps to release stiffness accumulated through overuse or poor posture.
- Foot reflexology: stimulates energy points connected to key organs, optimising internal balance and overall recovery.
- Wine therapy: a distinctive hotel experience that combines extracts from Reverón organic wine with circulatory massage to activate microcirculation and oxygenate tissues.
Our team of therapists combines Eastern techniques such as Nuad Thai or Asia Therapy with Western sports physiotherapy protocols.
Comprehensive Recovery: Mind, Body and Energy.
Sports recovery is not just physical. At Spa Villalba, it is complemented by holistic treatments that help balance body and mind, promoting deep rest and a lasting sense of well-being.
Thermal Circuit.
The spa has a Turkish bath, sauna, sanarium, jacuzzi and semi-covered swimming pool with views of the pine forest.
The thermal contrast of these spaces promotes joint recovery, blood circulation and muscle relaxation, key elements for regeneration after physical exertion.
Holistic Line: Ayurveda and Oriental Therapies
The wellness area also offers the Holistic Line – Mind, Body and Soul, with treatments inspired by traditional Indian medicine.
These include:
- Dosha Treatment: balancing massage according to the guest’s biotype (Vata, Pitta or Kapha).
- Marma Abyanga: deep massage on vital points that connect muscles, tendons and joints.
- Shiro Abhyanga: head, neck and shoulder massage to release tension and promote concentration.
These techniques, combined with the use of natural essential oils, stimulate vital energy and help restore mental and emotional stability.
Conscious eating and restorative rest.
Performance begins with proper nutrition.
La Vendimia Restaurant, located within the Hotel Spa Villalba, offers a gastronomic experience based on locally sourced products and Canarian and Mediterranean cuisine, ideal for those seeking a balanced and healthy diet.
The fresh ingredients come from the Anconito Organic Farm, owned by the Reverón Group, which guarantees a sustainable, nutritious offering tailored to the energy needs of athletes.
The spacious and bright rooms are designed for deep rest after a day of training, with views of the pine forest and a serene atmosphere that invites total relaxation.
