A really unique experience
What a beautiful location for a family vacation. It was a real adventure staying in a cave and the children loved the pool table. We enjoyed making a fire in the kitchen every evening and made friends with Victor at the local restaurant. We had a great week. Would strongly suggest hiring a car as we really needed this to get around. We used a translator to communicate with Luis (the owner) and he was excellent at keeping us informed. Thoroughly recommend visiting the winery (North/West) of the Island .

Fabuleux
Un vrai coin de paradis. La grotte est très spacieuse, décorée avec beaucoup de gout. C'est absolument fantastique de vivre dans un logement pareil. Luis à la gentillesse de laisser tout ce qu'il faut pour ne pas devoir se précipiter dans un supermarché en arrivant. Le jardin est un véritable jardin botanique où l'on trouve un plaisir énorme a se promener, rencontrer avec un peu de chance des lapins et des perdrix (avec leurs petits à cette saison), découvrir plantes aromatiques, fleurs de toutes tailles, plantes endémiques, et écouter le chant des oiseaux et le son des cloches des chèvres et moutons de la colline d'en face. Nous sommes venus a 4 avec une personne en fauteuil roulant. Toutes les pièces sont accessibles, les salles de bains très bien pensées. La grotte se situe a 10mn d'un hypermarché où l'on trouve tout ce dont on a besoin. La situation géographique assez centrée permet une découverte de toute l'île. Rien à dire, pour nous c'est un sans-faute!! Merci encore Luis pour ta gentillesse, ton accueil et ces merveilleuses vacances que nous avons passé chez toi. Un seul conseil si vous souhaitez vivre une expérience différente des locations classiques: foncez!
