Hotel El Patio
Garachico, Tenerife
Facilities
- The pool is delightful and well-equipped. There are loungers
and parasols, a tiny sauna, jacuzzi and a small sheltered gym. The
terrace is bordered by smart banana trees. You're hidden from the
world, mountains tower behind. A very relaxing spot.
- The hotel has a few sporty distractions. There’s a tennis
court (ask at reception for racquets and balls), a croquet pitch
and a golf net in which to practice your swing.
- Don’t miss the garden. You’ll find lemon trees, a
herb garden, an orange grove and masses of colour. A full-time
gardener looks after it all.
- The old bodega is now a very relaxed honesty bar, so help yourself. It’s a lovely room, nice and big, with lots of old family heirlooms lying around for no good reason. The guest book sits on an old school desk, ancient tennis racquets hang on the wall. You’ll find a couple of old dressers, one of which was ‘removed’ from the church. Inside, old stone walls cool; outside, tables and chairs are scattered about and tall palms soar. There’s colour everywhere (hanging ferns, bougainvillea). Follow your nose up to the tennis court and you’ll discover a terrace where you can watch the sun set.
When to go?
Anytime of year year - the average temperature is 25°C. Low season prices between May and September are very attractive, though it can get very hot at that time of year. December to February is busiest and most expensive as it's the closest place to the UK to find warm weather at this time of year. February is Carnival time.
