Casa Rural Las Riquelas / Finca Los Babos

Séjour du 7 au 14 juin 2025. Globalement très déçu par rapport aux attentes. Points négatifs J'ai pris le courant en touchant la prise de l'antenne TV, il a fallu finir de remplir la piscine et le jaccuzi, le jacuzzi est tombé en panne, le nettoyage de la piscine ne semblait pas fonctionner, rideau troué, forte humidité dans la maison, forte odeur indéterminée, manque de luminosité, canapé abîmé, linge de lit humide le premier jour, manque de verre à eau, pas de bols, manque de torchons, accroche du pommeau de douche mal installé, débit d'eau faible (quand le système d'arrosage se met en route, impossible de prendre une douche ou autre), aspiration de la hotte très sale, une chaise allongée cassée car rongée par la rouille. Points positifs Le barbecue, piscine ok mais à priori non fonctionnelle (pas d'aspiration), de la place pour se garer, belle vue sur l'océan et le Teide, présence d'un lave-linge et d'un sèche linge, c'est calme, pas de vis-à-vis, présence de beaucoup de serviettes de toilettes propres, literie assez confortable, grand frigo, plaque de cuisson, poêles, casseroles, extérieur sympa et entretenu. Résumé : gros potentiel avec un calme et une belle vue mais beaucoup de choses ont entaché les vacances. Se faire électrocuter en touchant l'antenne TV ne faisait pas partie du trip à Ténérife ! :(

An incredible location with amazing views, perfect for those looking for peace and tranquility. However just a few minutes drive will tale you the highway which runs along the north of the island, so perfect for visits to Garachico, Orotava, Santa Cruz and of course the start attraction - the Teide National Park. Very good and very reasonably priced restaurants within 15mins drive, we will be back. Las Riquelas offers a place to relax, swim, enjoy a jacussi, watch a magical sunset and all under the watchful eye of the highest mountain in Spain which you can see from all the terraces of this magical place.

we stayed there for six nights the house was clean. Wish It could’ve been a bit more clean. Unfortunately we did not get any sun over there as it’s slightly high and not close to the shore and there was every day cloudy and we could not use the outside pool, but we did enjoy the Jacuzzi, he has an issue with electricity though, especially with the lighting very poor lightning. He won’t invest into proper lightbulbs so we had to pretty much sometimes use our phones flash. The TV could be slightly bigger the position when you’re on the sofa or in the bed is very weird as it’s very small 32". We did had some issues a day before we went away because he brought some construction workers to do some work and we got in a bit of argument so they went away because they were doing a lot of noise but at the end of the day we all shake hands and everything was okay. But for the fact that we paid £500 for six nights who is not a bad deal is very very quiet very private. You do have neighbours but they are not around. You be careful if you get a car that is very wide very big the road to the actual location is very narrow because that area it’s mostly for very small cars and if you’re not confident in driving in very tight spaces and up the hill and down the hill, you might have an issue driving there, so if you’re looking for a isolated place to relax for a couple of days with zero noise with zero people around you, just you and your wife, your kids to stay in the Jacuzzi to play in the pool This is a very good spot.

recommended - nice and calm place to relax with all comfort you need for your vacation. We enjoyed the jacuzzi a lot. It has a nice view towards the Teide and it was always warm. Next to the jacuzzi you find the well looked after garden on the lower level of the property. There is an outdoor and indoor kitchen, stuffed with all you need incl. washing machine, dryer, microwave, normal coffee machine. The Wifi worked very well and fast (two down-streams at the same time no problem). The owner received as at the first day in a very kind way and explained everything to us. The communication via WhatsApp worked very well. The view is spectacular. The last part of the driveway to the house is very steep and small. So don’t go there with a Mercedes GLS SUV :-) Conclusion: we would book it again ! PS: bring multiple plugs with you, not so much plugs available

Magnifico la esperiencia. La casa en si, muy a cogedora con todas las utilidades al completo y cómoda. La piscina y el yacusi genial y sus instalaciones al rededor nos encantó y disfrutamos mucho de todo. Recomiendo la experiencia y por supuesto el anfitrión muy buena gente y super atento.

Me encanta, lo mejor el jacuzzi

Maravillosa luna de miel. Es idílico para parejas. El jacuzzi es de lo mejor, dado el tiempo lluvioso que nos tocó. Rafael es muy amable y atento, gracias. Repetiremos seguro!

Rafael, el anfitrión, muy atento y simpático. La entrada a sido rápida y cómoda, al igual que la salida. La casa, sus zonas como el jardín, la piscina, el jacuzzi y la zona del brasero está genial. Unas vistas alucinantes. Pasé unos días increíbles con mi pareja. Vuelvo a repetir pronto, eso seguro. Un gran lugar para desconectar, ya que está apartado de todo, se necesita coche para moverse. Pero para pasear o hacer senderos no hace falta, hay muchos cerca. Al igual que (Guachinches) restaurantes locales con comida canaria, muy buena y a buen precio. Lo único malo que no tiene importancia, son los cuchillos de la cocina, algunos no cortan bien y se deberían de renovar.

Un lugar maravilloso.
