Hotel Rural Casamarilla

We bolted a couple of days on to our fixed week because the flights are so much cheaper. I was looking to find another side to Tenerife and was absolutely delighted with this place. It is a 130 building on a working banana plantation. Ruth, the lady that appears to run it was so friendly and welcoming. The main building where you go for breakfast or to use the lounge is delightful. There are rooms in this building as well but we were outside in a sort of annexe ... room 6 . Don’t expect a 54 inch plasma screen or mini bar but it was very adequate and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was very good. There is a small pool, use of cycles, it is very safe as you need a special chipped key to get in or out. From here we visited Masca and Garachico both well worth a visit. You definitely need a car, there is only one restaurant that you could walk to which was closed on a Thursday unluckily for us. Definitely well worth considering, very quirky.

What a tranquil and pleasant stay we had here. It was such an amazing experience that at the end of the day we didn’t want to leave this place. To sum it up: the location is pure magic, the room and other facilities had an aura of history and breakfast was delicious. The staff compensated for the lack in English with friendly attitude. I would return to this hotel any day.

Such a lovely place in the middle of banana fields. Im so happy that we picked this place. Place is really peaceful, we could have stayed longer! Location is a short drive from Garachico, it has nice restaurants. And please have their bananas, they are the best! 🍌
