It’s been a few days since the owners of our luxury properties on Tenerife closed the book on another wonderful Owners Cup and Gala Weekend. We can hardly believe that this was the 5th edition of our annual community celebration. It seems just yesterday that we enjoyed the first Owners Cup with a small number of Abama residents, but this year we were pleased to welcome members of over 250 families to our various weekend events.
The continued growth of our residential community at Abama is a testament to both the inviting nature of the people that live here and the growing beacon that is life on Tenerife. This year we were delighted to be able, with the help of our sponsors, and particularly the Cultural and Tourism Department of the Government of Guía de Isora, to incorporate a number of unique local cultural experiences into our weekend programme. Our owners are attracted to Abama for the outstanding services and properties we offer, of course, but also by the rich environment for discovery that Tenerife provides. With every passing year, we are finding more ways to integrate Abama into the fabric of Canary Islands life, and we are all the better for it.
For many Abama residents, our beautiful and challenging Dave Thomas golf course is one of the main attractions of Abama Resort. What better way to celebrate it than with a friendly (but intense!) competition? This year the golf tournament, a Texas Scramble format with 4 players per team, was completely booked, with a record total of 84 players.
Our sponsors, Banca March, El Gusto por El Vino, Roche Bobois, Bodegas Chivite and Gancedo helped us give the players a golfer’s dream morning, with refreshments at Holes 1 and 10 to accompany the sunny skies. After the tournament, they enjoyed a lunch catered by Martín Berasategui’s Melvin, the latest restaurant developed at Abama by our Michelin-starred chef.
Hearty congratulations to our winners, Paula Navarro and Oliver Alvarez, as well as to our second- and third-place teams, June and Gordon Telfer and Vanya and Matthew Nunn, respectively.
