Lovely banana plantation with only about 7 double rooms, huge terraces with view over the sea facing La Gomera, great pool area, wonderful freshly squeezed juice for breakfast and a very nice owner, Gustavo, with his brothers ,,,

Absolutely charming place! We had a junior suite and the room was a good size, with additional room with a sofa bed in. The balconies are really big with chairs, table and 2 sun loungers on. No umbrella, but I'm sure it could be arranged if you didn't want to sit in the sun all day. Gustavo runs the hotel,... More

A great accommodation. Lovely balcony with sea views. I had a swim which was nice given that it was December! Nice staff to welcome us. So peaceful. The best thing was the fantastic breakfast with plenty of local produce and fresh fruit. Lovely. Hope to return!

You hear the the sound of the sea rushing evening night, although it is some 2 km away of the hotel. The staff is very warm and friendly. Everything is nice and clean and the room has a big terrace from where you can have a beautiful view of the ocean

This is one of the most peaceful and nice places we have ever stayed at. Rooms are simple but cosy, with their own terrace and subeds, a large shower and views over to the sea and La Gomera island. Staff are friendly, relaxed and helpful but discreet. We would definitely recommend staying here. The village of Alcalà is within walking... More

Surrounded by banana plantations, if you want a place to chill in Tenerife this should be it. Lovely traditional local food cooked by a great chef, friendly service and a quick walk from the sea and shops.
