Cottage holiday rentals in La Matanza de Acentejo

Great accommodation, fabulous location and stunning views. This rural area is very quiet and with no light pollution clear night skies are just magical. Mostly the temperature this high up is lower than the coast but not always. The coast, which you can see from the terrace, is 20 minutes away by car. The house is modern and attention has been paid to the things that matter. A perfect base for us. The journey up from Arafo is steep for many kms and roads are narrow but often one-way. You do need google maps though – our rental car did not have a sat nav. We found the house in the dark and pouring rain. Juan was very helpful and responded very quickly. Without him we would have had real difficulties with replacing our car which had a puncture and no repair kit or locking nuts on board. Car rental company Record Go (via Opodo) was worse than useless. For organic fruit & veg: La Albahaca in Arafo and La Tajea in Mercado de Santa Cruz. For eggs: Juan’s hens! We will revisit. Loved it.

My boyfriend and I had such a lovely time staying here. The views are absolutely amazing, and the house is beautiful and rustic. The terrace is very spacious, and there is a little garden that attracts lots of little birds. The whole house is dreamy and surrounded by cute flowers and native plants. We loved using the log burner in the evenings, as it sometimes got quite chilly; this made it even more cosy and homely. Having a car is essential to stay here (and also to explore the rest of the island). There's a Lidl and Aldi nearby and plenty of great restaurants and beaches. Thank you so much for having us!

Outstanding location with absolutely mesmerising views !! Away from the cluttered cities surrounded by vineyards I would highly recommend for those seeking a getaway in Tenerife. The places has not only views to offer , fully equipped with all sorts of amenities that one would ever wish for. Ellen is a great host very responsive and helpful. I would definitely be coming back for more !!!

We had a wonderful stay at in La Florida and would definitely recommend for a relaxing holiday away. The house and gardens were exactly as shown in the photos and a wonderful place to relax. We really enjoyed the wood burning hot tub, we purchased additional wood from the Repsol garage. The drive to the house was steep but very manageable for a confident driver. Initially we were given keys to only one of the apartments however as this had two single beds we requested the keys to the second place as this had a double bed and Susana was very accommodating in providing these.

The property is lovely and everything you need for relaxing getaway. We loved the outside area, Al fresco at its finest. Supermarket is situated at the bottom of the road, 5-10 minute walk. Puerto del La Cruz is only a 15 minute drive and playa El Bollullo is on 15 minute drive, bit of a walk down to the beach, but well worth it. also the restaurant at the top is lovely, with a great back drop. If you want a relaxing getaway away from the hussle and bussle, then this is the place for you. Wake up to beautiful views of Tiede and the sea. what more could you want. See you next time.

The Villa was absolutely beautiful, a pleasure to return to after a day out and perfect for 5 adults and a 2 year old. The Villa was spotless and there was plenty of linen for a two week stay. There is everything you can wish for in the Villa. There is a lovely pool on site, cold water but refreshing on a warm day. The Villa is within easy reach of two Supermarkets and shops and a five minute walk to the regular Adeje Market. An 8 minute walk will bring you to the delightful beaches of Del Duque. The host is super responsive, all in all a great place to be.

A nice house in a beautiful location, the garden, and the views of Tiede from it, are absolutely stunning. The house was clean and well equipped and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Maykel is responsive and answered any queries we had promptly. Highly recommended.

We felt right at home, good location, quiet area with a very good nearby guachinche. You have many trails to do near the house. The house in general was perfect, very clean and tidy. The jacuzzi was perfect for relaxing and was in very good condition. Very clean sheets and towels and very comfortable beds. The only thing you have to park several meters from the house because just in front is usually a neighbor's car, but everything else is great. We only had a problem with the Oven that did not work because the leancas were skipping, but we already communicated it so they can fix it for upcoming stays. What we liked most is that it allowed us to stay on the last day until late because I had no reservations and that is all a detail from the host that very few do. Everything else perfect. Thank you very much Aldo for your kindness, we will definitely repeat again. A hug.

We had a great time here! The house is very close to nearby restaurants (2-4 minute walk), pools in the sea (20 minute walk) and has a nice view of the sea. The town itself is quiet and has everything you need, the nearby market offers all necessary things. We would definitely visit again!

we were very happy to have found this oasis and booked 🌞 beautiful finca with everything that goes including a great host. Great location and magnificent views in the garden. You are happy to book again. 👍

We wanted to disconnect from everything and that's exactly what we got here. It's such a little hidden gem, very private, the BBQ & pool areas are a touch with views looking down towards the Atlantic! Literally an 8 minute drive up through La Guancha and you are in the forest, I can recommend Casa de la Pradera easy terrain, our dogs loved it. A few hundred meters up the road and you come to Bodega Viñatigo very nice wines. The host Lara is very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely go back.

Incredibly well equipped apartment with lovely finishing touches. Cozy and comfortable indoors and wonderful relaxing and well equipped outdoor area.

The apartment is very nice, clean and lovingly furnished – many beautiful details! 😊 Maribel was super attentive and always available. We felt completely comfortable and would come back anytime.

The host Maria is great, always helpful, super friendly and sweet with our kids. We had a great stay in the house and enjoyed the view over the bay and the banana plantation. Maria also provided us with a whole load of freshly harvested bananas which tasted amazing. Totally recommended place.

Great space in the mountains with lots of local trails around the horse sanctuary. Easy communications and check in. Eloy, who looks after the animals was great and was able to help us with fresh wood for the fire. If you want peace and quiet in the countryside it’s a great location.

Great stay surrounded by nature in a place that had everything we needed for a few days. The outdoor seating for breakfast, donkeys in the backyard and a fireplace for the evenings were our highlights! Thanks Pedro for a brilliant few days.

Really relaxing stay at the villa. Beautiful surroundings. Privacy and amenities were great. Cats a bonus! Thank you Carla:)

Unforgettable emotions. A place where you can enjoy the silence. A place with a beautiful view of the garden, and in addition to this, you will enjoy the breathtaking ocean and majestic mountains. A very cute and friendly cat that came to us in the evenings, creating a nice atmosphere. The apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay. I want to thank the host Juan for his friendliness.

Olga is friendly, helpful and a very kind person! It was just perfect! The accomodation has everything you need! It was really beautiful and exactly what we searched and expected! :-) We would always recommend and will definetly come back.

Perfect stay! We stayed here for 4 nights and everything was just as described in the photos, it was very cosy, lots of amenities, renting a car is a must, but everything is well taken care of! Would definitely recommend!! Thankyou Belen!

Great apartment on 2 floors up on the hill, steep road but doable, steps up to apartment on first floor, wonderful view and terrace, local Guanchine was very good value and good food, walkable oand pen from Thursday. All the things you need for a stay, great shower. Perfect for us as we were visiting various parts of the island, car needed due to location up the hill.

We had a wonderful stay at José Antonio's! The house is beautiful, very well equipped, very cozy and there is a fantastic view from the balcony with all-round views of the sea, the Teide and sunset. José and his family are wonderful, super attentive and child-loving hosts! There were bananas, avocados from our own garden and other little touches on arrival for us and the children. Everything was ready upon arrival (changing table, toys, baby bath, etc.). Our son loved playing in the huge garden among avocado & banana trees and feeding the chickens every day. We had a wonderful vacation and highly recommend this place and hope to come back soon. Thank you for everything :-)

The place is impeccable. Superb view of all the rooms. BellesTerrasses. Francisco is very friendly and communicating even if it was complicated because we don't speak Spanish at all. In short, no complaints. We'll be happy to go back if we come back to Tenerife.

We had a good time and were satisfied. Fully equipped kitchen and great terrace! Glad to come back!
