We recommend stopping along the way to make a large purchase for the entire stay. However, in the center of the town of Taganan there is a small shop where you can find everything (It is open until 17:00-18:00)

You can drive to the house and park practically at the door.

We offer a high chair, bathtub and cot service with bedding for babies for an extra cost of €5/day and upon request well in advance.

Please provide flight details as well as expected arrival time as soon as possible in order to arrange check-in.The town of Taganana is a small hamlet with scattered farmhouses, the nucleus of which rises in front of the house on the other side of the valley. It is located on the north coast of the island, 1.2 km from the center of Taganana (3 min by car and 15 min on foot) and 24 km from the center of the city of Santa Cruz (35 min by car).

Nearby is the farmhouse of Roque de las Bodegas, it has a jetty located on a rocky promontory that juts out into the sea and a public square. In the area there are several restaurants where you can enjoy typical Canarian food (wine, fish, fried octopus, goat meat, soupy rice, wrinkled potatoes with mojo...) and a pizzeria.

It is located on the road to Almaciga where Roque de las Bodegas is the first beach that can be found on this route along the coast (1.6 km and 3 min by car). The next beaches are Almaciga (2.9 km and 6 min by car) and Benijo (4 km and 8 min by car) The jewel in the crown. In addition to being located within the Anaga natural park and biosphere reserve, there are hundreds of trails to walk for lovers of hiking.The most recommended way to get to the apartment and move around the town and around the island is by car. However, there is public transport from the center of the city of Santa Cruz: a bus that regularly covers the route of the Almaciga road, having a stop in front of the urban center of Taganana. The distance from Tenerife North Airport to the accommodation is 37 km (54 min by car) if accessed from Santa Cruz, or 35 km (1 h by car) if accessed from the north. The route to the north is very beautiful but if the route has to be done at night it is preferable to take the route to Santa Cruz.
