HÔTEL RURAL FINCA LAS LONGUERAS ^{* * *}

This former colonial-style stately home dates back to the ^19th century. It stands colorfully amidst the wild landscape of the Valle d'Agaete and an orange, mango and papaya farm. A gentle landscape of fruit trees blossoming in spring and bursting with colorful fruit in winter. The house, also known as Casa Roja, has been converted into a charming hotel with ten different rooms, and retains the style and grandeur of yesteryear: parqueted galleries, spacious rooms, antique furniture, objects and engravings, works of art (don't miss the 1800s mail cabinet in the entrance hall). The swimming pool, framed by palm trees, offers a magnificent view of the barranco amphitheatre. Everything has been thought of to ensure guest comfort: rooms with safe, hairdryer, TV, minibar, small fitness room, TV lounge, reading room, furnished terraces, beverage service and coffee available. The evening meal is concocted by the in-house cook, Elsa, who knows all the secrets of good Canarian recipes. The staff take great care of you. A charming stopover.
