Hotel Rural Villa del Monte

Guests who stayed here loved

“This quaint villa is nestled in the mountain region of Gran Canaria the scenery is breathtaking, green and lush hills and mountains line the horizon, we were greated by a lovely lady who quickly let us know she was available for all our needs. It's a very small hotel with just 6 rooms, it would suit anyone who wants to totally shut off from the outside world! Our room was basic, there was a small fridge and the bed was very comfortable. We had a fabulous breakfast on one of the mornings. Sebastian was available by message to inform us of local restaurants, bus services and things to do. Buses run regularly to Las Palmas where you can get connections to other parts of the island. There are lovely local restaurants and bakerys, it was very cheap to eat, the local people were very welcoming but you would need to know a little Spanish or at least have a good idea of Google translate. Bring warmer clothes for the earlier months as the weather is cooler and it can rain. We are delighted we experienced this part of the island. Regrettably there were quite a few issues with the accommodation and we had to cut our stay short and move to Puerto Rico for the last 4 nights, I sent a very gracious message to Sebastian explaining why and he failed to reply to us in any way, no apology nothing, asked very politely if he would consider giving us some kind of small refund towards the cost of another hotel and nothing he could have at least said no sorry. I sent a message the day we left and still no reply this was frankly rude and unprofessional. Why we left: Room was so cold we had to leave the heater on constantly Bathroom door stuck so badly it would wake who every you were sharing with at night Hot water ran out when we were showering The doors on the room were ill fitting and we could hear the dogs in the yard barking which woke us early in the morning Hard to get to by foot as its on a busy road footpaths are bad. You have to go to Las palmas by bus if you want to go anywhere else no direct routes from the village Unfortunately the weather was bad but that's nobody's fault. Disappointed to say the least”
