The makeover island
Tenerife is exchanging the scruff for the smooth as it goes upmarket, says Lucia Adams in the Times Online. "Glossy shopping esplanades with Cartier, Versace, Escada and Hugo Boss designer brands on offer bear testimony to how Tenerife is changing."
The article is mostly a press release for the luxury developments in and around the golf area on the south of Tenerife - in sizes and designs that, frankly, would not disappoint "los very rich" de Miami. Sadly, these properties will be well beyond the price range of the average Canarian, who will have to console themselves with the "battery-hen blocks of poor-quality apartments", but it's nice to see how the other half live!
