Casa Victoria Terraza soleada

Yaiza ist eine sehr nette Gastgeberin. Der Check- in war komplikationslos. Neben Wein gab es zur Begrüßung Äpfel und Bananen. Bei etwas niedrigen Außentemperaturen konnte das Ferienhaus problemlos geheizt werden. Für Wanderfreunde ein wunderbares Ferienhaus, das einen direkten Start in die Natur ermöglicht.

Es fehlt wie in fast allen Ferienhäusern der Welt eine Teekanne. Ansonsten ist alles vorhanden.

Casa Victoria is a cosy cottage in the village of Taucho, up in the mountains above Adeje. It's a peaceful place to stay on the south of the island, only around 15-20 minutes' drive from Adeje and 25-35 minutes' drive from the airport. I stayed with my wife and two children. It includes secure parking, two bedrooms, a living area, kitchen, bathroom with shower and a terrace with lovely views. The living area sofa is (i think) a sofabed so I assume the property could sleep 6 if required. There is heating (from the air con units in heat mode) which is helpful in December especially up in the mountains. However there were also lots of extra blankets as well. There is a washing machine and we got a laundry load done half way through our stay. There is an iron, ironing board, hairdryer, toaster, kettle, gas hob, microwave - basically anything you might need (no dishwasher, but hardly an omission in this type of property). There is fast WiFi and a table football table which was a hit with my son! The host Yaiza is wonderfully welcoming and was enormously helpful to us when our hire car broke down - we contacted her and she was able to resolve the issue with the car rental company, and we had a new car delivered to us within an hour or two - she really went out of her way to help us. There are three roads up from the main highway to the village of Taucho, one of which is significantly easier and wider than the others. We sent Yaiza a screenshot of them and she confirmed straight away to us which one to take - it's the TF583 on Google Maps; the other two routes are a little scarier, with fewer barriers on the side of the road and lower visibility. Highly recommend this property if you are seeking a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy coastal resorts. The host Yaiza is wonderful and we would definitely stay here again.

Can't complain about anything, but just to note that - as is presumably the case with any rural property - there are a few neighbouring properties with roosters and dogs etc that like to announce the morning in the normal fashion. We quite liked it (adds to the overall bucolic picture) but it might mean that top-floor apartments on the coast are better suited to those who absolutely need to lie in until 11am!
