Overview
The Lowdown
La Palma is the most northwesterly of the Canary Islands, which lie just off the coast of northern Africa. Known as the ‘Green Island’, its mountainous landscape is dotted with laurisilva and pine forests and its dramatic black sand beaches are peaceful spots for sunbathing.
A dusky pink building on the west coast of the island and a 2017 TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice pick among the top 25 hotels in all of Spain, Hotel Hacienda de Abajo is a boutique spa hideaway, set in a carefully-renovated 17th-century sugar estate in historic Villa y Puerto de Tazacorte. Surrounded by botanical gardens, it looks out over the Atlantic Ocean and a sea of exotic banana plantations.
With a unique sense of eclectic style, the hotel has curated a collection of antique furnishings, chandeliers and paintings that are scattered throughout the bedrooms and the chic restaurant. Dine on authentic local dishes while you look out over the sea and hang out by the poolside or in the wellness centre, where you’ll find a sauna and a range of international treatments.
How to Get There
Reviews
Lovely Hotel on an island we never been to in the Canaries, very pretty island, great for trekking and hiking.but we didn't just a great Hotel to relax gorgeous pool. weather was perfect in March. food at hotel was good but menu does not change in the week so its good to go out occasionally. the hotel is highly decorated with lovely antiques, acquired by the owner. would definitely return to this hotel if visiting the island again.
This hotel feels like a small palace. Absolutely georgeous garden, beautiful room, very good beds, well maintained. Superb by any standards. The staff helps you out with a smile. Friendly and welcoming. It was our best experience on the island.
The hotell is fantastic and have a garden that would make most gardeners sick of jealousy. The restaurant was indeed nice and had a tartar med of veal that was fantastic. However the breakfast was appalling and the two girls working there did their best to make the breakfast insufferable!! They mad such much noise with the dishes so it was almost impossible to sit inside which we did due to cold weather. This is a 5 star hotell and the least you would expect is that the personell act like that.These two girls did not and that is why the mark for service will be bad.
