La Palma is a stunning destination for those seeking a charmingly undiscovered place for a relaxing holiday. One of the most amazing features of this picturesque island is that it is relatively unknown by most, making it a peaceful and totally unspoilt place in which to enjoy an authentic taste of the Canary Islands.
The island is fabulously pretty, and a leisurely walk offers a wonderful way to enjoy its natural beauty. The sleepy towns have both tasteful, low-rise resorts and quaint whitewashed houses, with spectacular scenery provided by the mountains covered in sweet-smelling pines, sun-dappled evergreen forests and dramatic ravines. La Caldera de Taburiente is the largest volcano in the world, and is an unmissable feature of any holiday to La Palma. It seems hardly surprising that the locals call this amazing destination La Isla Bonita, meaning the beautiful island.
For those that seek a holiday full of sun and sand, this destination offers a lovely selection of beaches. Although holidaymakers won't find an excess of golden sands here, there are a few hidden coves and some sandy beaches to enjoy. Most of these lie around Puerto Naos, Los Cancajos and Puerto de Tazacorte. All three have dramatic strips of black, volcanic sand that make a fabulous place to relax in the sunshine.

| Maz said, "A beautifully kept hotel with excellent uncrowded pool areas and an abundence of sunbeds. An 8 acre site with lovely planted grounds and features although some of the hotel rooms are laid out in an untraditional way in blocks. It would have been nice to have had the option on booking the hotel of a room with a seaview. The food was very good with a good choice and the restaurant had lots of diff..."
