Residencial El Llano — Hotel in Valle Gran Rey

We are just finishing our holiday and had we known about all the rules we wouldn’t have booked here. Firstly there’s no bar or restaurant which wasn’t apparent on the booking site. Secondly there’s no food or drink allowed at the pool which is open from 10-6. We watched people getting told to leave sun beds at 6.15pm These people were sunbathing and reading quietly (as per the rules advising quiet conversations) and were all over 50. There’s no smoking even on balcony apart from 1 area near the pool which closes at 6. Reception staff not very helpful. There’s absolutely no atmosphere and nothing to do but read or go in the pool (til 6pm). The resort caters for Spanish and Germans. We were the only British voices to be heard. Our husbands got stuck up in the mountains due to the heat and we asked reception if they could get us a taxi but as it was a Sunday they said nobody would come. Receptionist wasn’t interested. We walked to the nearest pub at the end of the street and the guy behind the bar got us a taxi to pick them up and take them back to the car. Don’t book this hotel unless all you want to do is read all day every day. The resort itself is spotless and there are plenty of good restaurants with lovely food. I don’t know if it’s the time of year but everywhere...

La Gomera, it’s double more than ‘’just’’ a lovely place to holiday. The best stay-in you will find at Residencial El Llano, Valle Gran Rey. A perfect hotel with holidays apartments. I had one in January 2017. My apartment (ground floor) had a living room/fitted kitchenette, a bedroom, a large bathroom and a private yard. Bottle of fine wine as a welcome gift. Very nice rooms. A charming place to rest. The hotel was very clean and tidy. Peace. Quiet. Not crowded. Great pool. I was surprised because I said goodbye to winter in Europe, but I had nice warm water at the hotel swimming pool. The pool a bit in the shade but the water was really nice. Generally in the middle of the day in Valle Gran Rey was 78F (25,5C). Residencial El Llano has the perfect location. Close to the store, restaurants and cafes. Due to the above-mentioned circumstances, I must present my the best opinion on Residencial El Llano. I highly recommend.

PS. A cool street carnival dedicated to Neptune, King of the seas you may see in January, in...

This is our second year holidaying here and we could not be happier. The location is centrally located so that Vueltas, La Puntilla and Playa María are almost equidistant and just a pleasant sea-side walk away. You also have a supermarket, a chemist, a gym, a bakery and toy and clothes shop in the same building. It's minutes from the beach (La Puntilla or Charco del Conde are the closest) but you also have a swimming pool if you fancy a bit of exercise after the beach. It's also child-friendly, our four-year-old loves the little pool for splashing about safely (the sea in VGR can be qutie rough). The apartments are large, with a fully equipped kitchen, a balcony and a living room with an additional sofa bed and television. This means that after the beach, you have a lovely place to relax in until wandering off in the evening again. Cleaning is regular and the reception staff could not be friendlier. We can see ourselves returning here...
