Detailed Reviews
We stayed at this excellent hotel over New Year. We loved everything about it - our room (superior double), our little terrace, the beautiful gardens, pool area, food and most of all the friendly, efficient staff. We liked the choice of eating a la carte in the restaurant or excellent tapas in the more relaxed terrace area. Breakfast was very good. Our stay included the New Year party which was most enjoyable with food, drinks, disco, extremely well organised by the lovely staff.
This is a very special hotel with beautiful antiques, interesting architecture, superbly kept gardens. The unspoilt little town is less than 10 minutes walk up the hill, the port area with beach, restaurants and a few shops is about 20 minutes down the hill. If we didn't feel like the walk up from the port the bus runs every hour. We didn't have a car so arranged a private taxi for a day to explore some of this lovely island. Whale watching tours operate from the little port, we enjoyed a sunset trip.
If we visit La Palma again this hotel will be our first choice.

This really is a very special hotel, set amid a small banana plantation on the drier, eastern side of the island, within the town Tazacorte.
The atmosphere is that of a former religious house turned into a marvellous hotel/ museum that puts many a National Trust property to shame.. The rooms are spacious and the manicured tropical gardens, thanks to an irrigation system, a jewel.
Never before have I wanted to spend my days beside a pool reading a book. This is the perfect place to unwind.
4G on the island is a bit slow, but the hotel internet speed is amazing. Very useful when finding out about the geology of this intrresting volcanic island.
We have not been disappointed by a single meal.
The hotel staff are charming, and being Spanish, are not native English speakers. This should not be a cause for complaint as a previous reviewer has mentioned. Their English was infinitely better than my Spanish and everything worked fine.
Please dont tell anyone else about this place, otherwise it will fill up and we wont be able to return.
Never felt so rested in my life.
One note about hire cars. The bus service on the island is really good and cheap. The roads are steep and twisted. Unless one wants to explore the more remote spots, the bus service was a joy compared to the UK. The advantage over a car is that one gets a much better view and travelling time, compared to a taxi, wasn't significantly longer. Any motorist would be lucky to achieve an average speed above 30 mph on the roads.

This is what a hotel should be. A hotel with charm, beauty, luxury and pure indulgence. The attention to deal is extraordinary. No identikit rooms but individually curated rooms by the owner bursting with antiques and paintings. I am not sure many people are aware of how special some of the antiques and paintings are. The pool and spa area are perfect for passing the day. To top it all off the restaurant is sensational - make sure you try the local red wine from the family estate. A rare feat - 5 stars ⭐️

The hotel is consistent with what others have said about it - that being - it is a gem. It is truly a beautiful hotel and quite unique in its own right. My room was gorgeous with all the beautiful antiques and paintings, the bed was very comfortable and the welcome drinks was quite nice. Overall, the staff at the reception and at breakfast was quite sincere in their ways to help, but there were a few important points which made me gave this hotel a 3 stars instead of 5. Some points that the hotel can improve on are the following:
* Being more knowledgeable about the tours that are being offered by tour agencies.
Afterall, they are the first point of contacts. Instead of giving me a brochure, they could try and tell me what is best based on their experiences.
*Being more knowledgeable about the daily activities that one can do in neighbouring towns, restaurants, and sight-seeing tips and also take the initiative to ask if I needed help to plan my holiday.
*No kettle to make tea in the bedrooms. I would've preferred some tea functionalities especially during the evenings when it gets a bit cold and would like something warm to drink. I rather have tea than free sugary drinks as tea is healthier.
* The last annoyance for me was that one of the female staff sitting at the reception asked me to ask the breakfast guys whether there was going to be a seat available for dinner. This is the most rudest thing you can tell your customer to do their job.
Anyone that works at the reception should do the work and check for availability (always!) when your customers ask you for dinner seat availabilities! Definitely not a properly trained staff!
* The language capability of the staff (especially in the breakfast room) were shocking. Some of them could not even speak business English when asked questions. Even worse, they don't know how to make small talk with people.
* The breakfast was nothing special and there should be more healthier alternatives eg. there were no avocadoes yet la palma is known for their avocadoes!!! No green juices or even soy milk etc... They had a very small selection of hot foods for breakfast.
* Dinner at the breakfast room was also not very satisfactory. It was very pricey in tiny portions of food and the food was not even great! It made you feel like there was absolutely no value in what you were paying for! There was an attempt to be so creative in the food designs, but the taste and portions were quite shocking!

We have visited for the second time and would love to be back soon. We really enjoy spending time at the hotel and the food at the restaurant. The service is very good, the heated pool is great at this time of the year and the hotel is just gorgeous with many exotic plants and valuable antiques all arround. It is a hotel with a lot of personality and the location in the village of Tazacorte is excellent , always the best sunny climate in the entire island. Absolutely recommend to stay here.

This beautiful hotel with all its history and art has not only the best measurements and service, but its located on the low populated island full of nature of La Palma.
Surrounded by a banana plantation that keeps the place cool, one can enjoy the pool, the spa, or a massage with in the Tropical Garden inside the Hacienda. Every room is different and made for a prince. Plus the restaurant with its famous chef has made wonders in combining the fresh products from the island with its different spices and flavors.
If you want to just forget today's troubles for a while as safe as possible, here is a palace that feels like its own planet.

My partner and I stayed at the Hacienda de Abajo for the last 2 nights of a week's stay in La Palma. First impressions are very good. The hotel is very well appointed, the rooms are beautiful and spacious and a very large and interesting antique collection abounds. Ours had a small but sunny private patio, which we enjoyed. The hotel has a very well maintained sub-tropical garden and a lovely pool area and jacuzzi. The staff is fantastic and Guillermo on reception was very welcoming, polite and helpful (even going so far as to explain to us precisely where we should park in Santa Cruz on our way back to the airport. The hotel is a couple of minutes walk from the centre of Tazacorte, which is a very pleasant and vibrant, albeit small town. On the downside, we had dinner in the hotel's El Sitio restaurant on our first night and were extremely underwhelmed: Although the waiting staff was good, the a la carte menu is horribly expensive and the food nothing special at all. My carpaccio starter was nothing special, while my partner had a ceviche starter, which was drowned in lemon juice, and, as a main, a €36.00 steak, that hadn't been trimmed. At breakfast, the cooked dishes were very good indeed but, amongst the buffet cold offerings, the cheeses and cold meat were unappetising and, on the second morning, some of the cut cheeses and fruit seemed to be making a second appearance. (At any rate, they had seen better days.)

Apeldoorn, The Netherlands63 contributions67 helpful votesGreat atmosphere, great location, great food and great service, but…
Glasses are dishwashed, not a problem, but when it forms dried up droplets in the glasses it is, especially when the sunset comes through the windows ánd the prearranged glasses on the tables.
As said, great food, but with one thing the chef completly missed it, a grilled fish, with fried smoked paprika and dark fried garlic, oh so bitter and the taste was more that of chorizo than of fish, wonder why, because the rest was prepared beautifully.
But the worst is, after not eating and telling the waitress, it still ended up on the bill, 3 stars for that.

We have been staying at the Hacienda de Abajo for five nights in the middle of June. It is indeed a very pleasant place to stay, with very welcoming and helpful staff. Online you can see the nice pictures of the hotel of course, but you really have to stay there to fully experience how well everything works. By far the best part of the hotel is the excellent restaurant. We have only used it for breakfast and dinner, in the daytime we went hiking in the mountains. Breakfast has a limited variety on the buffet, but everything available is of excellent quality. Beside the buffet there is also a menu with small dishes like toasts and omelets that you can order. At night there is a wide variety of inventive and beautifully finished dishes with fresh local products.
We found this hotel an excellent choice for our holiday. Although our main aim was mountain hiking and walking all day, we also like to get nice food and a comfortable room to be ready for the challenges of the next day. Tazacorte is also a nice little town to stay at, it is literally only a few minutes walking away.

Our second visit to this lovely hotel. The welcome is warm, our room just lovely. A small patio with seating overlooking the beautiful garden, really comfortable bed, outstanding bathroom with huge bath/shower, fluffy towels, bathrobes, slippers, toitetries - and so much more. The restaurant is very good, we prefer the tapas menu served in an outside courtyard as it is so relaxed and informal. We enjoyed the New Year's Eve party, very well organised with lovely food. Great choice at breakfast. What really stands out for us at this hotel is the staff - all of them so very friendly and helpful, we felt so "at home", nothing was too much trouble for them.
The walk down to the pretty port takes about 25 minutes, plenty of buses and taxis if you prefer to ride. Several really nice restaurants there, also the chance to take a boat ride. We went on a whale watching trip and saw a large group of resting pilot whales, a wonderful experience. Walking up to the small town takes no more than 10 minutes. Plenty of places to eat and drink and refreshingly non-touristy.
We look forward to our next visit.

We didn't see anybody smoking inside. One lady did by the pool though.
It's a beautiful hotel ... in our top 2 of everywhere.
Is there a beach nearby please?
Would you be able to tell me something about it if so
Thank you
