The Harbour Club

The Resort & Its Setting

The Harbour Club is an independent timeshare resort in Los Gigantes, a former fishing village on Tenerife's west coast best known for the towering sea cliffs that give the town its name. The resort operates on a timeshare ownership model and holds an RCI affiliation, meaning owners can deposit their week into RCI's exchange network and trade it for stays at other RCI-affiliated resorts around the world, rather than returning to Los Gigantes every year.

Los Gigantes & the Western Coast of Tenerife

Los Gigantes sits beneath the cliffs that define the area, with the small harbour still used by local fishing boats and excursion operators. A short drive away is Puerto de Santiago, a neighbouring coastal village with its own harbour and a good spread of restaurants serving fresh seafood and Canarian staples. Inland and further along the coast, the region rewards those with a hire car: Masca Village is a well-known hiking destination tucked into the cliffs, the Teno Mountains offer protected rural landscapes and walking trails, and Garachico, roughly 25km away, is a historic town with colonial-era buildings and natural volcanic rock pools. The western coast has a reputation for reliable sunshine, which is part of why the area draws repeat visitors, particularly from northern Europe, through the winter months.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at The Harbour Club and are considering a resale or a rental, BidMyTimeshare.com is set up for exactly that: a private, owner-to-owner marketplace rather than a broker. You set your own asking price or weekly rent, write your own listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's a one-time listing fee to publish your ad and no commission taken on the sale or rental once it's agreed — the price you negotiate is the price you keep.

Because The Harbour Club is an independent resort, any resale transfer is handled through the resort's own owners' association or management company rather than through a brand-wide resale desk. Before you agree a price with a buyer, it's worth confirming directly with the resort what the current transfer fee is and what the annual maintenance fee stands at, since these vary and aren't fixed by us. A resale buyer typically takes on the week itself along with the obligation to pay future annual fees, but does not inherit any outstanding dues, rewards balances, or informal arrangements the previous owner may have had — these remain with the seller unless explicitly agreed and documented as part of the transfer. If the resort's RCI affiliation is active on the week being sold, ask the resort to confirm whether that affiliation transfers automatically to the new owner or needs to be re-registered.

What Renters Typically Look For

Renters researching The Harbour Club are usually drawn by the Los Gigantes location itself — proximity to the cliffs, the harbour, and the coast — rather than resort amenities alone. Clear information on unit size, view, and travel dates, along with how check-in and any resort fees work, helps a listing stand out. Since the area's appeal is strongly tied to outdoor scenery and day trips, mentioning proximity to Puerto de Santiago, Masca, or the Teno Mountains in a rental listing can help a renter picture their stay.

Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers

Los Gigantes is reached via Tenerife North or Tenerife South airport, with a hire car recommended for exploring beyond the immediate coastline. The Atlantic here can be rough depending on the season, so swimming conditions vary throughout the year, and the strong UV at this latitude is worth planning around whatever time of year you travel. Owners listing a week for winter dates should note that this is the peak demand season locally, as northern European visitors tend to book well ahead.
