There is really very little to say that isn't positive about our stay here. 5 minutes drive to the beautiful Garachico, set in acres of banana plantation along the wild northern coast of Tenerife, the reception staff were available till 9pm, there was ample, secure parking and even some diy cooking facilities. Hotel Rural El Patio seemed to attract mature couples rather than family groups which meant the vibe was relaxed and peaceful, without the inconsiderate antics of teenagers or feral kids. Oddly, our only misgiving was around the breakfast buffet which, though impressively extensive, dispensed coffee which needed an upgrade and juice which I would have expected to be fresh rather than out of a carton. This is a small niggle and the fact that the selection changed each day meant that there would always be something to tickle the tastebuds. As for our room, it was spacious with a wonderful open roof, good wi-fi and hot water that was usually plentiful once it had worked its way through the pipes. The heated towel rail meant that towels didn't need to be replaced because they stayed damp and the only fail of the daily servicing was not replacing the shampoo which is a tribute to the quality of the overall experience. Oh, and the pool was lovely, with towels available from reception. All in all, we would love to return one day.
