Staying at our Gran Canaria hotel has a direct benefit on our area and its population. Local farmers, families running small restaurants in the village, independent crafters and artists and young, talented people increase their job opportunities thanks to our guests. Places otherwise known only to local insiders become popular and this benefits all the people living there. All this is managed with the utmost care to safeguard the local environment.
The philosophy of the hotel is a natural way of living. Rediscover sensations. The Canarian / Mediterranean cuisine is based on natural food, elaborated with organic products from the area. We buy milk and other organic products from the farmers in the hamlet. We use locally available materials and eco-friendly paints. We use local craftsmen/builders.
All the staff at our Gran Canaria hotel are people resident in the village so we create employment in the area. We have solar power to heat the water of our rooms. We recycle our wastes and separate glass, metal, paper, plastic, have low-energy bulbs and use biodegradable bags. We collect the rain water & we use it in the gardens & our little plantation and have two water butts. Our toilets have water savers and we ask guests to reuse towels and sheets more than once. We haven't publicity, only a website to save paper. Our construction uses natural materials like wood & stones and use local eco cleaning products. Our gardens are formed by endemic canary flora, so we collaborate to protect them.
We reintroduce native plants in our environment & we educate guests & locals about surrounding habitat offering to our guests to plant a native tree. We give our guests information about hiking routes from our hotel with stops in local restaurants & a nice fruits & vegetables market. They love it. We offer taxi services & the possibility to rent a bike.
We invite every traveler who books a vacation via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the vacations they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same vacation can have different views!
