Good
Awful humidity smell
Liked: We had booked the accommodation for 1 night but didn’t stay to sleep. There was a very bad smell of humidity and chemical product, both covered by a strong chemical perfume. Contrary to what is shown on the pictures, the space is not light at all: there may be window-doors, but you cannot keep them open if it’s not warm enough outside. There are no proper window. The entire furniture looked outdated. There is no heating, which was a problem as we were hiking and arrived wet after lots of unexpected rain. We couldn’t stay for the night because of the very bad smell and the cold, had to take another hotel much further.
Charming cave in Artenara
Liked: It’s not just a stay, it’s an experience! The rooms are big and everything feels very rustic. It’s a cave after all! The kitchen is cosy and well-equipped. There are two bedrooms, one which connects to the kitchen, and a bigger, separate one. The outdoor area seems very pleasant in summer time, with garden table under a tree and outdoor shower. The host is very responsive. There is a convenient bakery/supermarket nearby.
Disliked: Mind that the bathroom is “outside”, where it can get cold during winter season. Since it’s a cave, WiFi signal has some trouble reaching one of the bedrooms.
Authentic cave living, great hiking, and incredible cloud-level views with friendly local services
Liked: Location was exceptional, it's not often in life you get to say you got to live in a cave. Hosts were friendly, and special shout out to the caretaker was friendly and helped with any problems. Had 3 small shops for groceries, Spar, Udaco and Tamadaba. Not a massive selection of food, but had good quality cheese, deli meats and bread. And some basics like, fruit, veg, eggs and pasta. Quite a few lunch time restaurants and a free cave museum to look around. Rest of the town had good view points for scenic surroundings. If you like hiking, this place is a hikers dream. Also in the evening you can touch the clouds as the village is high enough, was truly amazing to experience.
Disliked: No fault of the hosts or location, but I got unlucky in my visiting time, as there was Storm Regina visiting Gran Canaria, so the place was pretty cold other than my last few days. I think an additional duvet cover would of come in handy.
Interesting experience in a cave with “camping” feel to it
Liked: A novelty to sleep in a “cave” Quiet location above the village Nice view Probably better experience in hot weather.
Disliked: It was cold (end of Jan) in the evening. Bedroom/ bathroom/ kitchen are not connected, I didn’t realise what the set up was (3 cavities in the hill + a garden). Bathroom door jammed. Water pressure/ temperature is not great. Power supply is weak (we had a power cut after turning the washing machine on). No windows / visible ventilation in the sleeping space. Everything feels kind of old and used in a less attractive way.
A unique and authentic cave house but in need of some basic upgrades and care
Liked: Great location just a couple of minutes walk away from the centre of Artenara. The house itself was a unique stay in a cave house but lacked some basic amenities.
Disliked: The access path was very steep and wouldn’t be accessible for some people. Toilet ceiling was leaking onto the floor. There was minimal hot water for showers. It was a cold windy day/night and the house has no heating.
3 rustic caves in a great location in a beautiful area
Liked: Great location in a pretty town in a stunning area. It was pretty warm inside the caves (except the bathroom) despite the cold outside.
Disliked: It's pretty rustic, but then it's a cave so you shouldn't be too surprised about that. The instructions to find the place were OK but could be clearer. The electric went off a few times but I'd figured out to reset it before the host replied to my message. They essentially told me not to plug too many things in at once, tho I was only using the washing machine at the time. I unplugged the fridge and water heater (which are normally always plugged in of course) and it was OK after that. The host didn't seem too bothered about this inconvenience. As others have noted the bathroom is in a separate cave which isn't terribly convenient in the night. There's a massive stone jesus just up the hill from the caves so people are frequently passing to enjoy the view, making it feel less private than it otherwise would.
