REST ENJOYING THE VIEWS OF THE SEA AND THE MOUNTAIN Reviews

We had a great holiday in this little house. There is everything you could need and is very comfortable. We did have a couple of problems which were very quickly sorted out after an email. Definitely recommend for a couple who want a quiet holiday. The village is in a good location for walks but you would probably need to have a rental car to get around. A highlight for us was the proximity to the sea water pool which was lovely to get into after a day walking.

This little house sits admist banana plantations in the valley of Hermigua. Hard to describe the views from the house other than absolutely fabulous! It is so tranquil. During the day the only sounds you may hear are the neighbouring cockerels, the odd dog barking, the rustle of the lizards in the undergrowth and the plantation men working. And at night the sound of distant frogs and the waves crashing on Santa Catalina beach. The house is very well equipped and cosy and the garden a peaceful retreat to sit and relax and just admire the beautiful mountains. And the hammock was surprisingly comfortable! There are bananas, mangos and papaya growing in the garden and we tried several different recipes for cooking the bananas which was fun. Susana the owner was only a call away if we needed advice and Ramon the local taxi driver brought us to and from the ferry. The walks around the valley are delightful, very hilly but the scenery is worth it. There is a local bus which passes through the village about 3 times a day in either direction and we found that fun for exploring. The village itself is about 1/2 mile walk away with plenty of little bars (Pedros was our favourite, a must if you’re a Pink Floyd fan!) or Tasca Telemaca sitting on the beautiful terrace outside with a glass of wine with its amazing mountain backdrop. This was also our favourite restaurant as the inside is quirky and they do a gorgeous fillet steak. If you walk there through the plantation you will also pass the goats and chickens, sheep and cows! Our other favourite restaurant was Las Characas just a short bus journey away (uphill!) then a nice stroll (3 miles) back to the Finca. We stayed here for the whole of February and only had a handful of cold days and a couple of wet ones. So take warm clothing with you as well and walking boots are a must. All in all a truly memorable holiday, very different and every day was a ‘wow’ day with the scenery. We did explore different villages but Hermigua was definitely our favourite and we will certainly be back!

Our stay here meant we experienced some very interesting windy and wet weather but that didn't spoil a thing for us and the sun did shine quite a bit too. A very peaceful place to stay with fantastic views. Comfortable and homely and very highly recommended.

We had a great stay here in Hermigua and the house is a great base to explore the island from. Set amongst the banana plantations it is very comfortable and quiet with just the sounds of daily life in the Hermigua Valley and the crashing of the waves. The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you need - we enjoyed cooking in the modern kitchen and eating out under the stars. The outdoor space is a lovely place to relax and enjoy the spectacular views of the valley and mountain tops. Hermigua itself is one of the nicest places on La Gomera. We recommend the walk to Playa de Caleta, the walk from Alta de Garajonay, and dinner at El Faro in Hermigua!

We thoroughly enjoyed the house and the town of Hermigua. Our only problem was finding the house in the dark at 9pm. Luckily a local woman walking her dog saw the picture of the house, recognized it immediately, and was a to help us. My daughter spoke Spanish so that was also useful. Our mistake was using Google rather than following Susanna’s instructions! The house was very clean and had everything we needed. My daughter got a shock from the outdoor hanging light bulb so please check on that.

Secluded. Sea view. Quite place if not windy. Best internet and best sleep I ever experienced on Canary Islands.

Ein wunderschönes kleines Haus mitten in einer Bananenplantage mit herrlicher Terrasse und Hängematte zwischen kleinen Obstbäumen. Wir konnten hier sehr gut entspannen. Im Haus war allen vorhanden, was man braucht - von der super Küchenausstattung bis hin zum Waschpulver für die Waschmaschine. Zum einen Schlafzimmer ging es ein paar Stufen hoch auf eine Galerie, zum anderen durch eine Schiebetür ein paar Stufen nach unten. Alles war sehr sauber und in einem sehr guten Zustand. Das Haus erreicht man über eine kürze Schotterpiste (gut zu fahren), an deren Anfang man einen Supermarkt, einen Bäcker und die Bar Pedro findet. Zum Meer sind es auch nur 5 Fußminuten. Der schöne Strand La Caleta mit blick auf den Teide ist ca. 4 km entfernt. Man erreicht ihn über eine kleine Straße mit vielen Serpentinen (beginnend oberhalb des Hauses) oder über einen kurzen, aber nicht unanstrengenden Wanderweg über den Berg. Das Tal ist sehr ruhig und grün, die Felsformationen sind beeindruckend und die bunten Häuser entlang der Straße stimmen einen fröhlich. Von hier kann man zudem sehr gut Ausflüge in den Nationalpark unternehmen. Danke Susana für die nette Kommunikation und die gute Anfahrtsbeschreibung. Wir haben uns in Deinem Haus sehr wohl gefühlt.

Alles hat gepasst Susanna hat uns jederzeit unterstützt

You are in between banana plants, it's quiet, you can hear the ocean and restaurants, bars, supermarkets etc are nearby. Very nice and well equipped house. Modern and rural. Couldn't have been better for us!

Wir haben die Zeit sehr genossen, den Garten, die ruhige Umgebung, trotzdem alles was man braucht, schnell erreichbar Sehr einfacher und schneller Kontakt zur Vermieterin Wir würden die Unterkunft jederzeit wieder buchen
