Well presented accommodation, but some issues
El Tanque is well located for walking. The accommodation is a good size, well presented with modern appliances. We stayed in the winter. The living room has no windows and the bedroom has shutters instead of glass. As a result, the rooms do not heat up during the day, but cool at night. The low energy lightbulbs are dim, so the overall impression is unfortunately cold and darKish. There is a wood burner, but the off-cuts provided do not generate much heat. The kitchen is a little under equipped and I recommend the owner provides an electric kettle, a couple medium sized saucepans and some larger bowls and glasses. El Tanque itself has very limited cafes/bars and restaurants and the locals appear to use the cafe at the petrol station. The accommodation has safe and accessible car parking and is located in a quiet spot near a large super market.

Belle maison canarienne, très confortable.
La maison et l'espace extérieur sont très agréables. Le service est parfait avec une bouteille de vin à l'accueil. Parfait pour cuisiner. La salle de bain est très belle. Grande propreté et la maison a une très jolie architecture.

Hübsches Haus mit viel Charme
Wir haben unseren kurzen Aufenthalt in El Tanque sehr genossen. Das Haus ist gut gelegen mit schönen Blick von der Terrasse über das Dorf bis zum Meer am Horizont und viel Stil. Der kleine Garten und die Terrasse laden zum Verweilen ein und das Haus wurde erst vor kurzem liebevoll und geschmackvoll renoviert. Es bietet alles, was man braucht. Und mehr: bei Ankunft erwartete uns ein liebevoll hergerichteter Präsentkorb mit Obst, Keksen und einer Flasche Wein. Der Kühlschrank war mit dem Nötigsten gefüllt und auch sonst zeugte das Haus von ausserordentlicher Gastfreundschaft und viel gutem Geschmack. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt und können das kleine Ferienhaus nur empfehlen. Kinderfreundlich ist es auch: Kinderzimmer mit kleinem Maltisch, Wickelkommode, Hochstuhl, praktische geräumige Dusche (passen locker zwei Personen rein und die Kids können im Sitzen duschen), Babybett, reichlich Handtücher, sicheres Aussengelände. Für uns hat es perfekt gepasst! Einen herzlichen Dank an Jennifer, ihren Vater und Schwiegervater, die sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich waren. Recomendamos la casa fuertemente también para familias. Está recién renovada con mucho gusto y tiene todo lo que se necesita y más! Jennifer es muy amable y se ocupa de todo. A nuestra llegada encontramos en la mesa una cesta con fruta, vino y galletas! Desde la terraza hay una vista preciosa por todo el pueblo hasta el mar. Disfrutábamos de unos días maravillosas. Gracias de nuevo!
