“A charming B&B in rural La Palma, also available on exclusive basis. Three chic bedrooms offer traditional features with a contemporary feel - exposed beams, antique tiled floors and modern four poster beds. A pretty little garden with heated pool is the icing on the cake. An intimate hideaway.”

Hotel Review
Hotel Olio is a smart little B&B which was been converted from what was once the village music school. The house is also available as a full house rental and can sleep 8 - 10 guests. The property has been sympathetically restored and you'll find plenty of original features including beamed ceilings and antique tiled floors. With just three guest rooms, you can be sure of a quiet intimate stay. The style is traditional and chic - all rooms have modern four poster beds and smart ensuites feature walk-in rainshowers (one has a stand-alone bath tub). The tropical garden follows on with the cosy, intimate feel; there's a pretty patio where breakfast can be served, and a good sized heated saltwater pool, perfect for a lazy day or cooling off after a hike in the surrounding countryside. There is no restaurant, but the owners will happily point you in the right direction, whether you want to wander into the village or venture further afield for dinner. Hotel Olio is perfect for a totally relaxing break far from the crowded beaches that are so often associated with the Canary Islands.

What is there to do in the area? Due to its diverse and varied scenery, in 2002 La Palma was declared a unique Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. La Palma offers an array of wonderful walking due to the network of well kept hiking paths stretching 1000 km. Hotel OLIO is situated close to the Caldera de Taburiente National Park and is therefore on the doorstep of where many hikes begin. Santa Cruz, the island’s historic capital, is just a short drive away. The town was once one of the most important ports in the Spanish empire and gateway to South America. It is a beautiful town to explore with ancient cobbled streets and traditional architecture. With the clearest skies in Europe, La Palma is home to a number of international telescopes as part of the astronomical observatory. The site has the most extensive astronomical facilities in the Northern Hemisphere and you are able to learn more about their fascinating work on a tour of the Observatory.
