In the picturesque town of Agaete, this hotel has a subtle nautical theme and a fantastic spa to enjoy. Head down to the nearby beach for breath-taking scenery and a swim in the Atlantic Ocean.

If you want to get a bit more remote and not in the high rise this is your spot. In the old town there's a few places to eat, don't leave it too lateen a Sunday or there's not much open.
The port is fine, plenty of restaurants you'd expect on the quay. Loved the swim pools, discovered them on our second last day & would have used them and the promenade more had I known!
The road south is great fun with epic views, but not for the faint hearted with tiny windy roads and potential rock falls if it's been raining.
Nice spot, nearby coffee plantations a great day trip.

Fish restaurants in the Puerto area are all brilliant.
Fish restaurants in the Puerto area are all brilliant.
Agaete town is quiet and sleepy, but lovely. Excellent coffee at the bakery. the Huertas de las Flores is a gorgeous and lush oasis of amazing trees and flowers.
the municipal library is a wonderful community space.
Excellent location and starting point for some really good hikes. Local public transport is really good. We took the local bus to Los Berrazales coffee place (finca la Laja), then walked back along the valley floor ('el valle' or 'el barranco').
Perfect place for a quiet holiday - lots of other visitors, but it is not a 'big resort' kind of place, just people who come for hiking and very good fresh fish!

Agaete has a magical spirit, which is hard to describe rationally. In the compact and pretty town center is a wide range of cafés, bars and restaurants. Narrow streets elevate the whole slope up to the topmost view. Often there is some music festival in the town. Surrounding mountain are always visible, being a background for small beautiful places that are worth to seek for. Neighbouring port town offers beaches, natural piscinas and more bars and cafés. Supermarket is located practically halfway between, together with a closed bath (also suitable for children) and gorgeous Hondo café, which would be a mistake not to visit. Agaete is easy to reach by car using highway, which is currently being extended further south. However, bus services are poor in speed due to detouring to many villages along the highway and often delayed, and most of all too infrequent except for the line to Las Palmas.

No hot water when arrived.
No hot water when arrived. Dodgy tap in a bathroom meant no hot water all the stay. Ants in a bathroom all ten days. Damaged bathroom door. No toaster. No "free toiletries or toaster" both advertised.
Sparse kitchen utilities. No pegs for hanging out washing. Two outside lights missing.
Contacted both booking.com, Holidu and the useless Victor Ramos. E mails over nearly all ten days, and the responses to all queries raised. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Victor exists to stall clients, do nothing and prevent money being spent. He blames the owners if he cannot do anything (he know exactly what he is doing ...........) Basically rubbish

We weren't that impressed about Agaete as there were only few shops and the local supermarkets had a rather modest choice of food. Agaete scores well in terms of atmosphere (old buildings, narrow roads, picturesque port) but you can't compare it with the much more lively, bustling Galdar. We liked the port area and the rock pools but didn't find them outstanding in any way. Agaete is certainly worth visiting but we felt it tends to get a bit overrated. For us Agaete was a great base for exploring the North and West of Gran Canaria but a bit less of a great destination on its own.

A small town with a number of small shops, two banks and a couple of places to eat out or take a coffee. There is no supermarket. There is a town square with a pretty church, but this is usually closed. The nearby Maipes archaeological park is well worth a visit. The botanical gardens are tiny but for €1, again worth a visit. From Agaete you can walk to Puerto de las Nieves in about 20 minutes (Spar supermarket en route) where you can enjoy the beaches, the natural swimming pools and watch the ferry going to a from Tenerife.
Priceless views. Very comfortable apartment. Enough space for 4, preferable 2 adults + 2 children but would serve 4 adults as well. Spacious living room with kitchen and excellent outside area, small garden with sun chairs and terrass with table and chairs. Access to swimming pool with also stunning views. We had all we could need. Area is also perfect, close to port and center of the small town of Agaete, both ways 15-20 min walk. You gave parking place in the garage, waching machine etc. We would definitely come back.
We last stayed here in 2018. The location is mainly what drew us back, in the green valley of Agaete. The pool area is comfortable, lovely to lie on the loungers under the orange trees with the scent of blossom. The staff are charming. The water is hot, the room (2) large and airy.
The restaurants just down the road in Puerto de las Nieves are very good, delicious food and not expensive, we went down each evening.
Fantastic hotel & Resort.
We had a supremely easy check in and found our apartment to be spacious and comfortable. We loved our little private balcony with the views of the ocean.
There were plenty of activities offered by the hotel, including a bar and cafe/restaurant on site. The location was perfect with only a short 10-15 minute coastal walk to Playa de Amadores and Playa de Puerto Rico.
The hostel is in the downtown of Agaete with a really cosy bar and nice plaza just next door. Parking is for free nearby and atmosphere in the city as well as in the hostel are super relaxed and friendly. We enjoyed the yoga class, sitting outdoors or relaxing in the hammock. The room was comfy and just a bit noisy due to the road close by. The kitchen is also well equipped.
The hotel is beautiful, with stunning views of the ocean, clean and spacious rooms and it’s perfectly situated near natural pools and rocky cliff backdrops. The staff is very friendly, the food was great with plenty of options for all appetites and everything was sparkling clean. I can only say good things about this hotel and I will definitely come back in the future.
We loved the location, suite was very clean & tidy, Agaete is a lovely town nice restaurants, the suite is just short safe lit path from the salt baths and further onto port restaurants, it has a lovely old town area and some good nearby cultural sites to visit, some nice hiking routes nearby also.
We had some issues but were in communication with the booking.com rep
Just perfect! Very big and comfortable apartment with everything you need. The view from the living room is one of the best I had in my hole life during holidays. I regret we spend there only 2 days... :( I wish we could spend there all time, we were in Gran Canaria. And Sonia is the best host, thank you!
The big glass doors, balcony with sliding slatted screens together with amazing views makes this property a fantastic choice in Agaete. It’s often (very!) windy but the balcony is usually windless as it faces SW. great sunset views. Well equipped and comfortable accommodation.
It was a very pleasant stay, the location is great, the stuff was very helpful, the room very modern, with a terrace and a room swing...and the view, wonderful. I also had breackfast included with a great variety of food. I think it was the best hotel i stayed at.
We loved Agaete and this was a great stay, we felt at home.
The place was clean, kitchen had all the amenities we needed for cooking, the balcony was a great addition and communication with Paolo was smooth and friendly.
Would definitely recommend staying here!
It was a very good stay. The apartment is not big but a cozy one. The bed is comfortable, I like the quality cotton sheets. The outdoor space is very big, an awesome terrace. Agaete is a lively historical town, not to be missed. Owners are very pleasant
Wonderful place. You can find there everything you need. Perfectly clean and esthetic. Very good contact with the owner. Very good position close to the Piscinas naturales, Town of Agaete and astonoshing valley. Bus stop just at the building.
The hotel is so easy to find: in front of the bus stop and very well located (near the sea and center). My room was very spacious and comfortable. The breakfast was a great plus as it had so much.
Amazing traditional house with amazing little garden and a parking place in amazing old part of town of Agaete. Perfect communication, no problems, everything perfect 👍
We've stayed here before and enjoyed it both times. Hotel buffet dinner is good, and there are some lovely restaurants on the harbour a short walk away
