La Palma Princess Hotel - Fuencaliente, La Palma

Opened in 2004, the La Palma Princess Hotel and Teneguía Princess are part of an impressive and modern 4 star complex situated in Fuencaliente, close to the southern tip of La Palma and the two volcanoes, San Antonio and Teneguía.

The resort itself is set in beautiful tropical gardens on an ocean-front location surrounded by banana plantations, volcanoes and black sand coves.

FootpathThe hotel has a number of restaurants and bars on site, all offering a good choice of food and drink including those with stunning views and relaxed environments.

There is no access to the beach itself but the complex has 11 pools to choose from of ranging depths and plentiful sunbeds to relax in.

Situated in a tourist-free area, the closest village is Las Indias and the town of Fuencaliente is just a little further up the hill. Both centres can be easily accessed by car or the regular bus service but are difficult to visit on foot safely due to the steep and winding hill (plus you'd need to be very fit to get up there!). There are supermarkets at both Las Indias and Fuencaliente and a few bars etc.

The exterior of the hotel has a circular footpath, ideal for walking, running or jogging and provides a means to get out and about and enjoy the spectacular sea views without going too far.

From the hotel, the road to the right leads along banana plantations to the Fuencaliente lighthouse, incorporating a cove, black sand beach and volcanic area. The walk to the lighthouse takes approximately an hour and a half and there is a bus service available at certain times if you only want to walk one way.

The road to the left leads to La Zomora beach (approx 15 minute walk) where there is a simple bar / cafe located on the ocean front and an enclosed cove for swimming and sun-bathing although the path down is somewhat steep. The cafe is very basic but offers good views and a relaxing place to sit, eat and drink. You can continue walking along this road past banana plantations and volcanic areas until it ends abruptly (due to erosion?) and you will need to return the same way.

Visitor Reviews Submitted

"We've just returned from a weeks holiday at La Palma Princess Hotel and prior to departure found your website invaluable. We downloaded the mini guides to the towns and villages, the short (!!) walks and they were a great help when we hired a car for a few days and toured the island. Like you we enjoyed our time at the hotel and found the island a wonderful place. Many thanks, keep up the good work."
