“Estupendo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

The photos of this rural retreat give one high expectations of tranquility and beauty. They were surpassed. I have never stayed in such a peaceful environment - and by that I don't mean dull. There is lots to do in the vicinity: hikes, beaches, fishing ports etc. and you can be as active as you like. But every moment you spend in the hotel's extensive grounds, and the house itself, is as relaxing as it is possible to imagine. There were never more than half a dozen people in the pool area and we were usually the only guests in the extensive first-floor living-room where we went to read most evenings. With its eclectic collection of pictures, photographs and bibelots, it was the antithesis of formal 5-star hotels which in fact hardly ever have a nice sitting-room. The staff were all friendly and helpful; the bedroom was large and the bed comfortable. If I had to find a fault, the only one I can come up with is that clear and accurate directions from Agaete would make finding it on the first night less stressful!

“An Oasis of Calm in an attractive Barranco”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

This Hotel is situated at the end of a dirt track across the Barranco from the main road. But what a delight in store! Set in large grounds of fruit trees with an attractive dining area inside and interesting rooms with exceptional views. The food was simple but excellent.
The reception is very welcoming and the peace of the place is tangible.
It has good access to the coast but any drive into the interior of Gran Canaria needs at least one to two hours if you are going for walks.

Room Tip: Seek one looking up the valley

“Charming hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2011

Stayed at Las Longueras for four nights in November and this is a very charming hotel. True, it doesn't offer the full service of some hotels (eg very limited lunch/ dinner menu), but they don't claim they would. Hotel itself is very pretty with a lot of attention to detail, e.g. old photographs. The library is in a corner of the building with view towards the sea. also worth noting that it is possible to work the plantation. Would definitely stay again.

“Nice!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2011

We had a good time here, a very relaxing place. The Finca and the surroundings looks great, very authentic. The breakfast and dinner are good, as is the pool. We stayed with our 8-month-old daughter and the staff was very nice and accommodating.

Room Tip: You might hear the chatter of other guests if you stay in room 10, because the window somewhat overl...

“A place to unwind.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 May 2011
4
people found this review helpful

Having read the reviews on the hotel on Trip Advisor, we decided it sounded just what we wanted for our Easter break. After the 1 hour drive from the airport, negotiating the narrow streets of Agaete, we forked off the road that runs through the Valle de Agaete onto a dirt track that zigzags its way down the hill. There is a sign to the hotel to help you pick the correct track too. The hotel is about 1/2 mile from the road and the track is a bit bumpy in places. The hotel has a spacious car park, so no parking worries. A short up hill walk brings you to the steps leading into the red painted hotel. The reception is usually manned, but, as in our case, if the receptionist isn't around, a ring of the bell on the wall outside soon attracts attention! We were given room 2 on the ground floor, which is accessed via the cobbled courtyard and veranda. Like the rest of the house, it retains it original features. These are best described as functional, rather than luxurious, but the en-suite had everything you would expect from any modern hotel.
I was rather worried about noise from the local animals and birds and made a point of bringing ear plugs just to be on the safe side, but I didn't bother with them after the first night. OK you do hear the occasional dog and the cockerels are early risers, but they weren't really intrusive.
The hotel has extensive land and is surrounded by orange groves. To the rear of the house is a cactus garden, where the inhabitants grow to truly gigantic proportions. It was a nice quiet spot to escape from the afternoon sun, with a book.
Meals at the hotel consist of a breakfast of cold meats, cheese, bread rolls, or fruit and yoghurt. It was a self service affair, with coffee in a thermos with a plunger. While you work through the fare, you will discover Emma, the hotel's cat! She really likes the cheese! Lunch and dinner are available on request. We sampled both on a few occasions and were pleased that we had. The dinner was normally set and varied from day to day. Everything was home made and delicious. A couple of days we were the only guests for dinner, so the cook asked us what we would like, and she did mean anything! It was like being Lord of the Manor, especially as the dinner was served at on of 2 huge round tables in the dining room on the first floor.
Down the valley is Puerto de las Nieves, with its small harbour, used mainly by the large Fred Olsen Speedcat ferries that link Gran Canaria with Teneriffe several times a day. Dotted around the port are many bars and restaurants, some cheaper than others. One tip though. If you can, try to park in the car park by the windmill. If you go for the one by the church and pharmacy, you will be accosted by a chap wearing a high-vis jacket. He will find somewhere for you to park, but...he will also demand 2 Euros which makes sure your car doesn't get scratched...
The roads to the south meander around the mountains and signs prohibit using them if it's raining. The cloud can blanket the road, making them like driving blind on a rollercoaster. Oh yes, although the roads are narrow and winding, you still get buses and large articulated lorries using them. If you hear a horn, stop and let whatever is coming get past, if there is space...
Finally, don't forget your Spanish dictionary as no one speaks any English, except the hotel receptionist. Gesturing and pointing is sometimes effective!
