Secret Tenerife Village EXPOSED: €800K Cliffs & Airbnb Crackdown!

Join Tim in Palm-Mar, Tenerife with viewers Andy and Helen from near Worksop for a relaxed coastal walk, a deep chat about housing, Airbnb and VV licences, and a sneaky coffee stop at Baobab café. Along the way, Tim shows how he uses Relive to track walks, talks about losing three stone since April just by changing how he eats, and shares stories from Andy and Helen’s lives back in the UK.

They explore the seafront near Playa La Arenita, check out the posh Bahia Beach Club, and chat through the controversial plans for “The Cliffs” luxury development being built right on the rocks. Tim gets into the nitty-gritty of Tenerife’s rental crisis, VV licence moratoriums, and how new rules might finally help locals afford to live where they work.

Over coffees at Baobab, Tim does a live menu review, chats Spanish with Roberto the waiter, recommends “Spanish With Paul” for anyone wanting to learn the language, and explains how he’s now using Descript, TurboScribe and AI to auto-generate showreels, shorts, blog posts and chapter markers. By the end, he’s trying to convince Andy to launch “Drew’s Petrolhead” YouTube channel before signing off with the secret word “Templo” and his trademark “See ya, wouldn’t wanna be ya.”
