Post Tenerife South Approaches

Just returned from the sunny isle. Can anyone enlighten me why most arrivals seem to have straight-in approaches from the west, but a chosen few are allowed to approach from the east over the sea (downwind) and land visually from about 4 miles or so ? This isn't an ATC favour to the locals as Hapag-Lloyd, Air 2000 and Premiair were also at it.

Just interested thats all.
