La Casita

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about La Casita? The name’s actually perfect – it really does feel like someone’s well-loved little house rather than a typical hotel. Tucked away on Calle Sogete in Adeje, it’s one of those places that’s genuinely local but still polished enough that you’re not roughing it. The street itself is pretty quiet, which I honestly wasn’t expecting given how close you are to all the tourist action. When I first walked up, I thought “okay, this is either going to be charmingly authentic or a total disaster” – thankfully it landed squarely in the charm category.

The thing about staying here is that you’re actually in a proper Spanish neighborhood, not some resort bubble. There’s a little café around the corner where the locals grab their morning coffee (and trust me, it’s way better than hotel coffee), and you can walk to the main drag in Adeje without breaking a sweat. The rooms are… well, they’re definitely 3-star, but they’re clean and comfortable with that slightly old-fashioned Spanish style that either works for you or doesn’t. I mean, don’t expect Instagram-worthy interiors, but everything functions properly and the beds are actually pretty decent. The air conditioning works well too, which matters more than you’d think in the Canary Islands heat.

What really sells this place is the staff – they’re the kind of people who remember your name and actually seem to care whether you’re enjoying your stay. I had this moment where I was trying to figure out the bus schedule to get down to the coast, and the guy at reception didn’t just hand me a timetable – he walked outside with me to show me exactly where to catch it and gave me his honest opinion about which beaches were worth the trip. That 8.7 rating makes total sense when you experience that kind of service. The only minor complaint I’d have is that the Wi-Fi can be a bit spotty in some rooms (though honestly, you’re in Tenerife – maybe disconnect for a bit?). Check-in was smooth, parking’s not a nightmare like it is closer to the tourist zones, and you’re close enough to everything without being in the middle of the chaos. If you want something authentic but comfortable, and you don’t need a pool with a swim-up bar, La Casita delivers exactly what it promises.

  Everything was perfect!
  Highly recommend this place for a good holiday!!!

• Amazing stay! Will be back! – Paul from United Kingdom – 18 September 2024 (8/10)

  Great apartment, very quiet – cars in the distance were few and not a distraction. Anyone super sensitive to noise can wear earplugs and not have an issue.
  
  Communication with Mariana was always quick and efficient. Really helpful and was easy to see she cares about the work she does.
  
  Kitchen has all the tools you need, very clean and spacious.
  
  Showers can get as hot or as cold as you like, powerful enough too! Tonnes of towels and even an umbrella by the door for the beach if required.
  
  Terrace is huge and has coal for BBQ, great views!
  
  Plenty wardrobe space, it was just the 2 of us, but there is enough for 6 easily.
  
  No air-conditioning, but for us, the black tower fan kept the air moving and wecould sleep with the noise it made on the lowest setting. Our room was 26-27°c during September. Having the fan blow air in from the windows for 2hrs on max fan brought it down to 24°c before going to bed, but naturally this crept back up overnight when put on quiet mode with shut window.
  
  Neighbours in the area were very helpful, we could speak Spanish luckily, but English may still be understood.
  
  Definitely a location you need to rent a car for, unless you are happy taking a 15min walk for the bus every time – definitely recommend Autoreisen!
  
  We didn't try the pool, but the beach (we went to the one left of Playa del Duque) was under 15min away.
  
  Lidl and Aldi is just a few min drive, there is a gym there as well which was great (€5 each), on also on the way to the beach. 45min roughly to the volcano – used it to propose to my partner of 10 years at sunset above the clouds!
  
  Area is really quiet, yet really close to the things you need, perfect balance!
  
  As there was nobody staying at the weekend, we could have a late checkout (6pm) – thank you so much Mariana!
  
  What could be improved: A guest booklet/guide would definitely help not only anyone staying there, but the time of the super helpful Mariana, as I bet she gets the same questions a lot about the apartment! Especially about how the front door works (see below), and location of pool and bins etc.
  
  Few of the towel holders and toilet roll holder fell off. This needed to be tightened with a hex-key, so we couldn't use them.
  
  Black tower fan was enough for us, but the blue standard one did not provide any assistance with heat or circulation. Plug cable wasn't very long either and quite loud.
  
  Door can only be opened with the key (no handle on outside), and it locks itself when shut. We accidentally locked ourselves out with the key left in the inside slightly turned – so another key from the outside wouldn't have helped – luckily with quick help from Mariana, a card could unlock the door by pushing it through – phew!
  
  Neighbours below were super quiet – we arrived at 00:30 on a Monday, they were smoking a bit of weed, but that was the only time we smelt it. The rest of the time they just chilled outside when they were there.
  
  No dishwasher tablets or clothes detergent in kitchen, or shampoo etc, one roll of toilet paper per bathroom (which was enough for 2 people for 1 week to be honest!)
  
  Some water for late check-ins would have been appreciated.
  
  Had to factory reset the Smart TV due to saved emails stored on it – this should be done after each stay.
  
  Tiny finishing touches like using some silicon to tidy up the skirting boards etc will also help make the place feel even more complete.

• Great location, service and ocean views – Andriy from Ukraine – 13 July 2024 (10/10)

  Thank you for welcome package: wine and fruits. It was exactly what we needed after long flight. Location is calm, around 5-7 min drive to the beach. Spectacular views. All of our questions were answered within minutes.

• Una casita linda y acogedora!!! – Javier from Switzerland – 4 January 2025 (10/10)

  La casita esta situada en una zona tranquila, ideal para relajarse y desconectar. Tiene una vista espectacular y tiene unas instalaciones muy comodas. Tiene 2 cuartos y cada cuarto tiene su baño privado con doble lavamano. En la zona central (sala/cocina/comedor) hay un medio baño. Los cuartos tienen camas grandes y comodas asi como un closet inmenso para guardar tu ropa. La casita tiene lavadora y los electrodomesticos esenciales, inclusive una calefaccion portatil (para cuando hace frio). La Casita estaba limpia, asi como las sabanas y toallas se sentian y olian limpias.
  Fuimos recibidos con una caja de chocolates, un vino y litro y medio de agua para beber, lo cual se agradece en especial despues de un largo viaje.
  Hemos recomendado "La Casita" a nuestros familiares y definitivamente lo recomendamos a todo aquel que quiera pasar una estancia tranquila y placentera en el sur de Tenerife.
  
  What could be improved: Nada serio, solo algunos accesorios de baño, como los porta toallas, que aún estaban pendientes de ser reinstalados.

• Superb – Claudia from Switzerland – 15 November 2024 (9/10)

  Schöne ruhige Fewo mit allem was man braucht
  
  What could be improved: Restaurants sind weit weg
  muss meistens 15-30min mit dem Auto fahren

• Superb – Alexandra from Germany – 3 April 2024 (9/10)

  Es war sehr ruhig, das Internet war sehr schnell. Die Kommunikation war sehr gut, angenehm und entgegenkommend. Die Ausstattung war super, wir haben jeden Abend lecker gekocht. Die Lage erfordert selbstverständlich ein Auto, man kann aber dadurch die Wanderziele bzw Badestrände schnell erreichen.
  
  What could be improved: Die Beschreibung hätte etwas umfangreicher sein können: wo ist der Pool, wie ist der WLAN Code, wie soll man den Müll entsorgen…..

• Desconexión total – Mateuko94 from Spain – 9 March 2024 (10/10)

  Las vistas, el sitio apartado super tranquilo, la casa muy cómoda… La piscina en un sitio especial.

• Prachtig verblijf! – Frans from Belgium – 16 February 2024 (10/10)

  De locatie is perfect, rustig.
  Het dakterras met de BBQ is prachtig. Een proper appartement met alle nodige faciliteiten.
  
  What could be improved: Niets

• Exceptional – Laetitia from Belgium – 4 November 2023 (10/10)

  L'accueil de Mariana et sa disponibilité, le logement qui correspondait exactement à nos attentes, la piscine attenante, la localisation dans les hauteurs d'Adeje mais proche de tout ont contribué à ce que notre séjour fut magique. De plus, les restaurants proches sont authentiques,loin du tumulte touristique,ce que nous recherchions. À fortement recommander ❤️
  
  What could be improved: Pour devoir en laisser un,le seul point négatif pour les personnes sensibles serait de fermer la fenêtre de la chambre la nuit afin de ne pas être incommodés par le bruit de l'autoroute proche surtout vers 5h du matin.
  Mais il s'agit juste de fermer une fenêtre. Cela ne nous empêchera surtout pas d'y retourner 😊

• Un sitio perfecto para descansar y disfrutar – Mercedes from Spain – 4 September 2022 (9/10)

  La casa es muy agradable, bonita y muy cómoda, te sientes como en la tuya. El sitio es muy tranquilo. La orientación es muy buena, con lo que la temperatura perfecta.
  Sin duda, repetiría.
