ibo alfaro Hotel

A hotel more than a hundred years old in the green heart of La Gomera

Staying inside thick walls dating back more than a hundred years old has its advantages, particularly in natural surroundings, where the cock’s crow is the best alarm clock you could have. Ibo Alfaro, a rural hotel more than a century old among cultivated ravines on the island of La Gomera, provides you with a second home to return to. The views of the bright green countryside and the warm, attentive way the guests are treated are definitely its best features.

The best views of the Hermigua valley

Although the 17 bedrooms have walls of grey stone and Castilian furniture, they are pure comfort, with views of the Hermigua valley. The hotel does not serve lunches or dinners, but the breakfast based on fresh fruit, La Gomera cheese and cured meats is so hearty it sets you up for a good part of the day. For lunch and dinner, you need to go to the pretty village of Hermigua, just five minutes’ walk away. A charming place to walk in peace or hire a car to drive round the island.
