I have been to the Canary Islands before and stayed in various villas, but Villa Mandarina was simply the best one to date. The villa matched the photos perfectly: bright, clean, spacious, and fully equipped for our 9-day stay. The pool and its panoramic view were breathtaking! Our host, Gloria, was incredibly attentive, providing a warm welcome with wine, cake, fruit, milk, coffee, and more, which was much appreciated after our late arrival. When I requested a larger frying pan, Gloria promptly delivered it the same evening. The location of the villa is ideal, a mere 5-minute drive to SuperDino and 15 minutes to the stunning Playa Chica beach. Getting to the furthest north or south of the island took only 40 minutes. I eagerly anticipate my return to Villa Mandarina.

It wasn’t a significant inconvenience, but it’s worth mentioning that there was a small construction project underway in front of the villa, which occasionally caused some noise. Also, there’s a gas station nearby; you might occasionally hear the car wash. However, on the positive side, this gas station includes a small supermarket, so a quick one-minute walk allows you to grab a cold beer, wine, or fresh bread for breakfast.
