A great location to visit the history rich northern section of Gran Canaria.A very comfortable house well suited for families. Nice. open views. The big plus that makes this place stand out is the access to the banana plantation and fresh fruits in season (bananas oranges goyaves for us in february). Excellent communication with the owner.
Great week amongst bananas - great location to explore from

Is a pleasure for me to receive you in our Rural House!! It will be fantastic to show you and explain everything about banana history and culture...maybe next time?. Pilar
Enjoyable holiday, in well appointed house with amazing views and good pool thats fully accessible.
Accessible features were as required for a wheelchair user.
Well situated for Las Palmas and its attractions.
Pilar and her husband are kind and considerate hosts. Pilar gave me a wealth of information and tips before we came. The Finca is well positioned to explore the amazing mountainous north and interior, whilst easy roads connect South and close to Las Palmas. The house is beautiful with a hot shower and access to your very own banana plantation which felt very special. There is a rooftop to sit on and outside dining area. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. Our children loved the pool which is heated, so even on cloudy days was well used! We would not hesitate to recommend, we had a great holiday.

Traditional charm in perfect tranquility
Pilar and her husband have created a wonderfully traditional villa with all modern conveniences. Uncluttered, clean, spacious and welcoming. We loved having cocktails on the terrace while the sunset, splashing around in the pool to cool off, collecting eggs, avocados and bananas for lunch and cooking an awesome BBQ.
Pilar and her husband were very helpful even booking us taxis on their wedding anniversary! We had a 4 month old baby an everything was organized so it was very easy - heated pool, baby cot and sheets, microwave....
The villa is close to the pretty town of arucas with a beautiful cathedral and rum distillery. We were also a short drive from the beach and the world heritage listed town near las palmas. Great holiday for family as there was plenty of space and things to do. We would love to go back!

Very relaxing stay - highly recommend Finca la Esperanza
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Finca la Esperanza. The villa was immaculate and has recently been renovated to a very high standard.
It is situated in the north of the island, within a banana plantation, a very peaceful setting although with easy access to main road so Gran Canara was easy to explore. A car is essential when staying in this villa. There is off street parking in the yard area at the side of the villa.
The largest part of the villa includes the bathroom, kitchen, indoor dining area, a sitting area and three twin bedded bedrooms. The kitchen contained a fridge freezer, dishwasher, 4 ring hob, microwave, toaster, coffee machine, juicer, kettle and a washing machine. There was every cooking utensil imaginable in the kitchen. No oven but this was not an issue as we used the hob, microwave and barbecue if we needed to cook food. Our bedrooms had televisions with built in DVD players which played region 2 DVDs (British/European). Detached from this building there is a large sitting area with tv and many children's toys. Great if some of your party want to stay up later than others and so not disturb those whose want to go to bed. There is an outside dining / cooking space which contains a barbecue and sink area with work tops. Beneath the main building there is a gym with some equipment and a table tennis table. There is a sun deck on the roof of the villa which has sunbeds, sun shades and a sitting area. This is accessed by steps. The views from this area are fantastic - over the banana plantation to the sea, las Palmas, the hills inland and we could even see Tenerife. The pool is a decent size and not too deep - a depth of 1.2metres.
The owners of the villa were extremely friendly and helpful. Any query we had was dealt with immediately - excellent communication with fantastic English. They welcomed us to the villa and the island and gave us lots of information about places to go and things to do. Pilar gave us a guided tour of the banana plantation which was fascinating. It was wonderful to experience them harvesting the bananas during our stay.
There is a great video on YouTube of Finca la Esperanza.
We had a fantastic time in Gran Canaria and were sad to say goodbye to Pilar, Juan, their family and Finca la Esperanza. Should we ever return to Gran Canaria we would definitely stay here again. We wish Pilar and Juan all the best and thank them for making our stay in Gran Canaria a fantastic family holiday.

Ons verblijf in de finca was fantastisch. We werden supergastvrij onthaald en kregen een uitgebreide rondleiding van Pilar door de prachtige bananenplantage. Ze stuurde vantevoren veel goede tips en uitleg en was ook makkelijk bereikbaar tijdens ons verblijf voor meer informatie.Het huisje is perfect om te relaxen, heeft een heerlijk proper verwarmd zwembad, keuken is voorzien van alles ( voorraad kruiden, koffie, e.d, keukengerei ook om te mixen en te bakken).We pingpongden ook erg veel! Zo fijn om omringd te zijn door de bananenplanten en dit terug te vinden in elke ruimte.Het weer is niet altijd te best in het Noorden maar deze finca laat je dat vergeten! Met een huurauto maak je de mooiste trips langs de zee maar ook door de groene bergen in het binnenland.Er is ook een supermarkt vlakbij op auto afstand.Wij komen graag terug

Muchas gracias por valorar la que ya es vuestra casa!! Cuando queráis podéis volver! Estaremos encantados de recibiros de nuevo. Un abrazo!
Super schöne Villa mit beheiztem Pool.Gastgeber Juan ist sehr freundlich und hilft sofort, wenn irgend ein Problem ist.Man kann jederzeit Orangen, Mandarinen, Pampelmusen und Bananen in der Plantage ernten, inmitten derer das Haus liegt.Alles ist sehr sauber!Danke für den tollen Aufenthalt!!!
Geräumige Wohnung mit zusätzlicher großer Lounge/Wohnzimmer im Nebengebäude sowie schöner Freisitz mit Grillmöglichkeit, Dachterrasse mit Meerblick und sogar Gymnastikraum mit Tischtennisplatte. Ein keines Manko ist, dass nur eine Dusche vorhanden ist (eine zweite Toilette gibt es am Grillplatz), bei Belegung mit mehr als vier Personen muss man sich gut absprechen. Pilar und Juan sind sehr nette und bemühte Gastgeber. Die Kommunikation auf Englisch war sehr einfach und angenehm. Die Bananenplantage liegt sehr verkehrsgünstig mit kurzen Wegen zur Schnellstraße nach Las Palmas und Galdar sowie Arucas. Nachteil der guten Straßenanbindung ist ein wenig Verkehrslärm, der bei geöffnetem Schlafzimmerfenster und auf der Dachterrasse zu hören ist, es ist aber erträglich. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet, erfreulicherweise auch mit viel "Verbrauchsmaterial" wie Backpapier, Alufolie, Gewürzen und vielem mehr, sodass man praktisch nichts kaufen musste. Gleiches gilt für das Bad, das mit Shampoo, Sonnencreme und vielem mehr ausgestattet war. Der Pool ist zwar zum Schwimmen zu klein, bietet aber gute Erfrischung und ist auch für wolkige Tage angenehm temperiert. Man hat perfekte Privatsphäre, da keine Einblicke von außen auf den Innenhof möglich sind. Insgesamt eine sehr angenehme Unterkunft, die sich ideal für Ausflüge auf den Inselnorden und in die Berge eignet.
Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen.Der Empfang von den Gastgebern war sehr herzlich. In der liebevollen eingerichteten Finca war alles vorhanden und sauber.Der pool war wunderschön. Er wurde regelmäßig gereinigt,ohne das wir uns gestört fühlten. Die angrenzende Bananenplantage war einzigartig.

Un abrazo, mis niños!!! Espero veros de vuelta!!! No paseis frío sin necesidad en Alemania!! Sabéis dónde tenéis vuestra casa. Un abrazo
Très sympathique maison, bien équipée et au coeur d'une bananeraie. Le plus, une petite piscine CHAUFFEE!!!, le moins une autoroute que l'on distingue au loin et que l'on entend un peu. Les propriétaires sont charmants et reactifs au moindre problème prproblème
Wir haben in der Wohnung eine gute Zeit verbracht. Die Wohnung hat 3 Schlafzimmer mit je zwei Doppelbetten, die Zimmer waren genau wie auf den Bildern und für so einen Urlaub optimal. Auch die Küche hatte alles was man braucht. Bad war ebenfalls gut, eine zweite Dusche wäre noch super gewesen aber ansonsten alles top (Für das zweite Klo gab es allerdings keinen Schlüssel). Auch die Bananenplantage mit dem kleinen Hund als Bewacher war sehr interessant und hat uns allen gut gefallen.
Fitnessraum wurde von uns ebenfalls genutzt, da wir ein kleines Tischtennis-Turnier veranstaltet haben.
Die Besitzerin ist super freundlich und sehr nett.
Alles in allem ein sehr gelungener Urlaub!!!

Ha sido un placer acogerles en nuestra Finca. La cuidamos con sumo cariño...es nuestro pequeño paraíso y nos encanta que lo disfruten y lo cuiden también como lo han hecho!!! Un fuerte abrazo
Emplacement idéal pour visiter le nord de la Grande Canarie. On a l'impression d'être seuls dans le quartier, entourés par la bananeraie qui nous est ouverte et dont la visite a été assurée par Pilar.
La maison est parfaite et l'extérieur nous offre tous les lieux nécessaires pour nous détendre : piscine, terrasse, salon ouvert, salon fermé, salle de sport, etc.
Autant dire qu'on peut choisir entre rester et sortir.
Juan Antonio nous a accueillis à l'arrivée, il est aussi gentil que Pilar.
Nous recommandons chaudement cet hébergement.

Ce fut un plaisir d'accueillir votre merveilleuse famille. Nous sommes heureux de recevoir des avis comme le vôtre, dans lesquels vous appréciez ce coin exceptionnel que nous avons à Gran Canaria. À bientôt!
Wat een topplek! Superschoon, zwembad is heel fijn (voor de kids vooral) en de locatie is geweldig. Deurtje door en je liep zo Narnia in (alias de bananenplantage). Eigenaren zijn heel aardig en behulpzaam. Mochten we weer naar Gran Canaria gaan, dan boeken we dit weer. Succes gegarandeerd!
Vi var 5 personer afsted. En kørestolsbruger. Dejlig varm pool med solstole. Fantastisk skønt banan plantage hvor vi plukkede frugt og gik små ture dagligt. Vi grillede i grillhytten hver aften. Vi havde en rigtig dejlig afslappet ferie i huset.

We will be happy to receive you again!!! Thanks a lot for your review! we try to do our best and make Finca La Esperanza your holidays home!!!
This place is a little jewel, glad to have discovered it with our family and 4 months old little one. Pilar and Juan are very careful and responsive, they've prepared everything with great care and kept us informed about the ever changing Covid circumstances. It's only a pity the weather was not really up to our expectations thanks to an Atlantic storm, but we still enjoyed the heated pool as often as we could :)
