Our eco-friendly La Tanquilla is located in the southwest of Tenerife at 750 meters above sea level in the small mountain village of Aripe, near Guia de Isora. Mass tourism is rare here. Several hiking trails start directly from the house.
Our site was lovingly built and planted by the previous owners in the traditional Canarian style, with many small details, and exudes beauty, peace, and tranquility. It is the perfect location for a relaxing holiday surrounded by nature. At night, you won't hear a thing except for the occasional dog, and it is also very quiet during the day.
We are environmentally friendly. The water is heated by solar panels during the summer months. Most of the wastewater is used to water the fruit trees. Therefore, we only use ecological soaps, detergents, and dishwashing liquids. We have a small, entirely organically managed fruit and vegetable garden.
We try to avoid plastic and prefer to buy local products directly from the producer or at the market. We are happy to share our sources with our guests.
The furnishings and everyday objects in the house are mostly made of wood or metal; many are secondhand.
We have a very good relationship with our (mostly Canarian) neighbors in the village, and active contact with the local community is important to us.
The current residents of the other (non-guest) half of the house are Krisztina (Hungary) and Michael (Italy) with their children Allison and Vincent. The family lovingly and attentively cares for the house, garden, and, of course, the guests. As the homeowner, I am in constant contact with Krisztina and Michael and continue to ensure compliance with ecological standards.

Wir waren fünf Tage mit unseren drei Kindern (10,8 und 3 Jahre) über Ostern zu Gast in der Casa La Tanquilla und haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Trampolin im Garten, die überdachte Terrasse und die kleinen Wanderungen direkt von der Unterkunft aus, haben die Zeit dort sehr kurzweilig werden lassen. In der Bar Aripe lohnt es sich auch eine Runde Dart zu spielen.
Sebastien und Eugenia, die direkt nebenan wohnen und unsere Ansprechpersonen vor Ort waren, gaben uns das Gefühl wie bei Freunden zu wohnen. Die Ruhe vor Ort tat ihr übriges, um völlig zu entspannen.
Wir können La Tanquilla wärmstens an Menschen weiterempfehlen, die Wert auf Ambiente, Natur, Ruhe und Nachhaltigkeit legen.

Très bien pour nous. Nous avons pu dîner tous les soirs en table d'hôtes une cuisine végétarienne excellente et qui m'a permis de pallier à mes intolérances alimentaires.
C'est le SEUL Ecobnb que j'ai trouvé dans mes recherches sur Ténérife.
La terrasse sur les toits était géniale et l'environnement d'un calme et d'une sérénité incroyable à seulement 20 mn des plages.
Sébastien, notre hôte était adorable et efficace pour satisfaire nos petites demandes.
Lieu à retenir.

We had a lovely relaxing time in Casa Rural La tanquilla. The hosts Eugenia and Sebastian were very friendly and we have been very well looked after by them. They even prepared a nice vegetarian supper at our arrival, since we arrived a bit late in the evening. The house is big and cosy, the area is very peaceful and relaxing, there are several tracks behind the house to go hiking in the nature. That's exactly what we needed to disconnect . We highly recommend this place if you want to evade from the daily routine. Thanks for everything Eugenia and Sebastian. See you next time!

Wir hatten eine tolle Woche bei Barbara und Chetan! Das Haus ist im Grünen gelegen und sehr ruhig. Die alten Gemäuer des schön renovierten Hauses haben uns sehr gefallen. Umgeben von einem verwunschenen Garten und einem tollen Ausblick aufs Meer können wir die Unterkunft nur empfehlen. Chetan und Barbara sind zwei herzliche Gastgeber:innen und waren immer für uns da, wenn wir Fragen hatten. Ein besonderes Highlight war eine Behandlung bei Barbara in ihrem kleinen aber feinen Therapieraum. Eine ganz besondere Erfahrung!
Wir kommen gerne wieder :)

The accomondation from Barbara is placed in a small village in the mountains. The atmosphere is amazing and you can start hiking right at the house. The owners offer fresh herhs for cooking and teas.
There is plenty of room and a nice roof deck where you can relax or make yoga etc.
There is a very warm, helpful and welcomig atmosphere. It was a great stay for a time out and we had respectful discussions about very different topics.
Thanks for a great stay!

So much more than just an accommodation... Very friendly hosts from Germany welcomed & informed us well. To get there, a car and good driving is absolutely recommended.
La Tanqilla is a small house connected to the host's house but without interference. Everything is tiny in size, but well equipped and thought through. We had the impression to stay in a real Canarian house off the beaten track but still close enough to shops, beaches and sights on Teneriffa.
The kitchen, for example, was the best-equipped one in matters of cooking utensils and quality. Some expect it as standard, but having travelled a lot and stayed in many apartments on the canary islands, we know it is not standard. The filtered water makes a huge difference. We were allowed to enjoy the garden and our kids the trampoline. The hosts' son befriended quickly with our older daughter. I can imagine that she will remember their adventures through the fruit garden and the adjacent mountain trails forever!

Dear Ursula, it really was a pleasure to have you and your family on our Finka!
