Hotel Rural Casa Lugo

Pros: This hotel is located in Agulo, one of the most charming towns that we visited in the Canaries. It's nestled in a coastal valley, surrounded by banana groves and dramatically high cliffs; the spectacular Mirador de Abrante sits atop one of these cliffs overlooking the town. Walking through the town feels like a walk back in time. In the center of town is the hotel, in a lovely colonial-era building with great views of the surrounding cliffs and countryside. All rooms are built around a central open-air courtyard with a small fountain, lounge chairs, and plenty of greenery. It's a great atmosphere. Our room was a deluxe, with a view across town to the surrounding cliffs. Great morning light comes in when you open the wooden shutters. The room itself is small, but it's well-appointed and very comfortable. Cons: The hotel comes with all the quirks of the old building that it inhabits — very creaky floorboards and poor sound proofing. But it's all part of the charm. The breakfast buffet felt a bit sparse compared to other hotels that we stayed at, but it was made with love and care. Note that you'll have to sign up for one of 2 sittings on a sheet the night before, as the dining room has limited space.

Beautiful house and friendly people. Breakfast could be improved adding fresh fruits and good pastry

Good beds. Nice location.
