Widely regarded as one of Tenerife's best shopping centres for much-needed retail therapy is CC Santa Cruz.

The shops spread far and wide and you really have that 'I'm in a proper shopping centre' feeling when you cruise up and down the elevators to take in all this places it has to offer.

Among the big brand names are H&M, Mango, Zara, Foot Locker, Nike and Tenerife's only Disney Store to keep the kids happy. Give your purse strings a little respite and take a pew in one of the many cafés before cracking on with the serious business of shopping, shopping, shopping...Another Carrefour takes up the entire ground floor too.

And you might like to know that next door you'll find Media Markt (for all things computing and electrical) and Merkamueble (large furniture store).
