Restaurante Finca De La Florida — Restaurant in San Bartolomé

Dined in the pod over Xmas period. Firstly when we arrived at the hotel, we were asked to sit and peruse the menu. Fine but said can we order drinks....we had to ask 3 times for a drink. (Yes the fire alarm was being sorted by one of you but the other wasn't doing anything) We arrived in the pod, crossing over wobbly paving slabs and broken steps up to the pod. These need fixing, I actually tripped up and nearly fell. The pod has loads of flashing lights, plastic flowers and chintzy ornaments. The food was alright, not as amazing as I was expecting given the reviews. And the wine, you're next to a vin yard surely you should be selling this point and their wines!!! And we realised that there were fresh oranges falling and rotting next to where the pods were. Would it not make sense to pick these up and use them in your food. I needed the toilet at one point, it was locked, it's in the sweaty gym/sauna area which obviously smells as you'd expect. This was not the luxurious experience we were expecting...

So I was seeing this traditional goat stew around the island for a few days, and this is the place where I’ve finally tried it and did it not disappoint!!! Culinary highlight of this trip so far, simple yet so well made - the only thing negative to say about it is that there’s a lot of bone fragments leftover in the meat, so be careful.. Tuna salad for starter was great too! She had the fish of the day and that was a tasty seabass.. Don’t get me started on the wines, tried the whites, the red and the roses from the surrounding la Florida region. All of it, great job! Waiter/bartender was busy all night as he was the only one serving, but still managed pretty...

As a certified Google Local Guide, I'm glad I get to experience this lovely place 😊 💕 what an amazing night we had and the meals were unbelievably good and tasty.

Now, I must say, it doesn't come cheap, not at all. Individual should be looking at easy 30euros minimum for a 3 course meal. But the experience in the igloo having your dinner 🍽 is amazing, it really is.

We even have a Bluetooth speaker we can connect to determine the music atmosphere we want. So we were jamming to our own music while we are having our meals. Honestly, total...
