What Guests Loved
- Positioned on a dramatic cliff in Guía de Isora, the resort offers panoramic vistas of the Atlantic Ocean and La Gomera island, providing a quiet escape from busier tourist hubs.
- With eight on-site restaurants, guests can experience a diverse culinary journey ranging from traditional Spanish flavors to international fine dining without needing to leave the property.
Things to Consider
- The sprawling Moorish-style estate can be challenging to navigate on foot, though a regular resort train and golf buggies are available to assist guests.
- Situated on the quieter southwest coast, the hotel is a drive away from Tenerife's main nightlife and cultural attractions, making a rental car highly recommended.
