Whether you'd love to find out more about our place in space, or stare up at planets and stars that shine in the night sky, Roque de los Muchachos Observatory will bring out your inner astronomer.

Situated in Garafia, this out-of-this-world attraction is well worth a visit. But you'll find a great deal more to discover in this area. Caldera de Taburiente National Park, Puntagorda Farmers Market, and Playa de la Veta aren't too far from Roque de los Muchachos Observatory.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (23 reviews)
Enjoyed our 3 night stay. Modern, clean comfortable room with fantastic views. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was good generally but grilled meats were chewy. Ample parking at the hotel but for a fee (10 euros/day). However, parking can be found along the road approaching the hotel. Area surrounding the hotel was quiet with few dining options.

Room was good and food was very good. Good entertainment shows every evening. Great place. Nice walk (15-20min) to the beach. 20 min the next town. 40 min bus ride to los llanos from fuencaliente. Beautiful island, not too busy in summer, just right for our taste.
