“Lovely relaxing and very helpful staff.”

Beautiful location surroundings and staff were all lovely kind and helpful. Breakfast was great. Pool facilities and grounds are stunning.

“Beautiful place to stay.”

Authentic place. Nice swimming pool. Unfortunately surrounded by new builds, which were very well hidden once you inside the domain.

“Big thanks to Ozvaldo and Jose for helping me during my stay, both very accommodating. I enjoyed my stay.”

I liked how remote and quiet it was.

“Disappointing”

Beautiful building and nice pool area. Decent breakfast in a beautiful dining area.

“Strange place.Some things feels luxurious, some things are very cheap.”

The building looks nice, garden and swimming pool too, you may take great photos, convenient location.

“Interesting for the architecture, not the location”

Stunning old monastery converted to hotel. Nice big room.

Exceptional place with a character. Stunning dinning room and breakfast area. Peaceful and green. Very helpful staff.

“It was a beautiful experience to stay in this hotel/home we had a lovely warm welcome and we could kick off shoes an”

This hotel is not your average hotel, it must be treated with respect it deserves, it is a family home and they are very hospitable. This hotel has remained in the same family since the 1700, it is beautiful. It is a gated oasis and it was a privilege to stay there. For anyone wishing to avoid the crowds and explore the island by hire car or cab, look no further

“Nice but overpriced, you might get a bad room.”

Charming place, nice old features and atmosphere in the communal area. Swimming pool area is beautiful.

“Lovely old Spanish building with character and breakfast was very great addition”

Lovely old building with character- comfortable rooms, lovely pool and surrounding lounge area, great breakfast

“Amazing place with history but its getting bit neglected”

Beautiful building and garden

“Misleading. Not a 4 stars.”

Nestled amongst the ruins of an abandoned golf course, surrounded by a glib landscape of construction sites, towerblocks, and , towards the sea, a large, big-box shopping complex served by a multi-lanes highway, El Cortijo appears as an uncertain oasis in an otherwise post apocalyptic setting. The hotel compound is, by itself, a delight : a faded glory celebrating the architectural heritage of the island, replete with numerous historical features, lush greenery and a pleasant, leafy alley. The pool area is also particularly enjoyable, clean and well maintained. And yet, an uneasy feeling soon sipped in. The rooms we were allocated are part of an adjacent building christened “la casita”, a converted dependence to the main building - think here service area rather than historical grandeur. Our rooms had the charm and matching size of those of a budget hotel, and none of the facilities one can reasonably expect of a four star accommodation. The furnishings are basic, with no double bed, an old tv with two channels, no air conditioning, and not even a extraction fan in the bathroom (a moist and musky smell thus lingers). There is also no room service, no telephone, no minibar, and not even a mosquito net on the sole window of the room - don t make the mistake of opening it at night. Hotel wide, there are no restaurant, and no bar, saved for a bring-your-own, service kitchen next to the pool where guests can store their own food and drinks in a regular domestic fridge, and where a capsule of nespresso, kindly provided by the hotel, will set you aback 2.50 euros if you dare to make it yourself. This all contribute to confere to El Cortijo the jolly ambience of a French camping municipal, where guests gleefully eat sandwiches by the pool, prepared from delicacies sourced from the local hiperdino. Not that all of this matter to us in the slightest.

“aceptable”

La tranquilidad

The hotel is a very unique oasis of Spanish colonial charm. It has a lovely garden and swimming pool. The rooms are a bit dated and there is no access to a bar or food. It was slightly overpriced given the lack of facilities. Staff were very good.

Amazing staff

“My own experience”

The property has this old rich money vibe. The pool and the view is nice. Good for photoshoot. The garden is nice as well. The breakfast is average but the croissant is nice.

“This hotel changed my opinion about rural hotels.”

Very nice and cozy hotel with atmosphere from beginning of 20th century. Old family farm with authentic doors, inner yard, palm trees. Very nice pool area, where you can enjoy evening/night with wine or beer. During, hot days there is option that you have sunbath or stay in shade. Free car parking.

Lovely swimming pool, so green and cosy place. The personnel really helpful and kind.

The whole accommodation was perfect. Breakfast was delicious. The staff was very polite.

“Amazing house but really need a car”

Nicely laid out breakfast, most of what anybody is likely to want provided
