Hacienda de Abajo
Awarded as the best historic hotel in Europe (Historic Hotels Awards of Excellence), Hotel Hacienda de Abajo is nestled in the historic quarter of Tazacorte on the island of La Palma, the most important agricultural area in the Canary Islands and the result of the meticulous restoration of a seventeenth-century sugar plantation estate.
The hotel is surrounded by a landscape of lush and rich vegetation, embraced by a coastline lapped by an ocean of pure and intensely blue waters and blessed with a warm and sunny climate with profusely starry nights making it the ideal destination for the practice of yoga.
