Costa Adeje, on the south coast, is arguably home to Tenerife’s best resorts. It’s also the lucky location of this restaurant – pronounced Noob – run by a husband-and-wife team of Italian and Chilean descent, who fuse their European and Latin American cultures into every aspect of their innovative menu. After receiving their Michelin star in the northern city of San Cristobal de la Laguna, the chefs headed south to open this modern indoor-outdoor space at the Hotel Bahia del Duque, not far from the Ritz.

Once settled in, shower, spruce yourself up, and dress to impress for dinner at Nub, located in the hotel and recognized with a MICHELIN Star since 2018. Its chefs, Italian Andrea Bernardi and Chilean Fernanda Fuentes, present a very personal culinary offering, influenced by their ways of life. Since they come from different countries, the couple have established their own culinary world after exploring both their gastronomic origins.

Sus responsables, Andrea Bernardi y Fernanda Fuentes Cárdenas, llevan a cabo una cocina con mucha personalidad que ha irrumpido por completo en el panorama actual. Su planteamiento compagina una filosofía de solidaridad con el entorno y desarrollo de sabores a base de técnicas estudiadas y ensayadas al detalle. Por supuesto, antes de acudir os recomendamos echar un vistazo a sus propuestas en su web, donde encontraréis experimentos tan sorprendentes como la ‘trufa canaria’.

Executive Chef: Andrea Bernardi and Fernanda Fuentes-Cárdenas.

Nub will launch on January 23rd at the resort and brings with it almost five years of gastronomic know-how. Founded in May 2016 by chefs Andrea Bernardi from Italy and Fernanda Fuentes-Cárdenas from Chile, Nub was awarded in 2018 with one of the prestigious stars during the Michelin guide editions that was held in Tenerife in November 2017. Nub has revalidated the Michelin star award on every occasion since.

En Nub, la chilena Fernanda Fuentes-Cárdenas y el italiano Andrea Bernardi, ambos chefs, definen su cocina como la búsqueda y rescate de sus orígenes. Esto les permite establecer enriquecedores puntos de encuentro entre ambos universos culinarios con Canarias como sabroso escenario. El propósito de los dos cocineros se plasma en menús que conquistan paladares inquietos, con intensidad gustativa y cromática.

Nub is a testament to the power of blending culinary traditions. Founded by chefs Andrea Bernardi and Fernanda Fuentes-Cárdenas, this one-Michelin-starred restaurant fuses Latin American and Italian influences with local Canarian ingredients to create a truly unique dining experience. The menu is designed to take diners on a global journey, with dishes that are packed with flavor and creativity.

Restaurant NUB combines Canarian food with its chef’s own personal touches. Using local Canary Island produce, it brings Latin American and Italian flavours together. This is a place where the dining experience comes first; diners move from table to table as they eat: starters are served on the terrace with sea views, and the meal finishes in the bar where diners can savour their dessert.

Donaire was awarded its first star in 2025, joining existing one-star Haydee, Taste 1973 and Nub. Others wait in the wings. The Ritz-Carlton, Abama, may have closed its other star eatery, Kabuki, but new Japanese fusion restaurant Akira Back is reaching for a star with its sublime tasting menu that weaves an expertly curated list of Canarian wines around delightful Japanese fusion dishes.
