4.5/5

“An excellent location for nature lovers.”

The best

The owners are very communicative and ready to help if needed. The location of the house is excellent for visiting the northwestern part of the island. Very close to the road that goes up to Roque de los Muchachos (a 20 min drive, compared to at least an hour if you leave from Santa Cruz). There are about 10 other houses within a radius of 3-500 meters, but the closest one is at least 100m away, hidden by trees, so you are practically in the middle of nature and, often, in the middle of the clouds coming from the north.

To be improved

This is a subjective answer, which may not apply to other travelers. I did NOT like the wind. It blew very strongly during our entire stay, making it impossible to use the astro equipment I brought. It was cold in the morning, but the house is at about 1000m altitude, so it is a risk assumed from the beginning. There were not many radiators in the house, but with a light sweater things were solved. Perhaps things change in the summer.

“A nice place to be!”

The best

It’s an old style countryside house located more 1100 meters above the sea level. It’s surrounded by big pine trees with a nice garden, and little but ocean view. It’s only about 35 mins to drive up to Roque de Los Muchachos from the house. We were there during full moon and it was a good spot to enjoy it. Believe it would be good for watching the stars too. We appreciate the owners preserve the traditional style of the house.

To be improved

- bedrooms and bathroom are in different floors - if water, oil and salt and be provided, it would be much more convenient for travelers
