Banana Garden la Palma

I had such a great experience staying for 5 nights at Banana Garden. The location is central, the rooms are spacious and the service and staff are amazing. The hotel is in an excellent location in the heart of the old city of Santa Cruz, just by the beach, shops and restaurants. I was there for Los Indianos, the local Carnival, and i was right in the center of the celebrations - so great. It is only 12 minutes from the airport, yet, if you are coming with a renal, you will have to pray for a street parking on the main avenue along the main beach. A better choice would be to park at Parking El Puente, 5 minutes walk away at a flat rate of €10 a day. The rooms are great, clean and modern, featuring a comfortable bed and a coffee set, great large walkin shower and kitchenette. There is a small balcony with a beautiful view of the ocean and the spectacular sunrise. The only thing the room is missing was more drawers and a safe (Alternatively you can use the main reception safe). Breakfast was very tasty and fresh, made out of local produce, with great coffee from a propper espresso machine, and baked pastries. Last but not least is the hotel's exceptional staff, especially Daniella who always ready to help, and Sabrina that knows and recommends amazing special restaurants, POI's, and places known only for locals. I highly recommend the hotel, and If I return to La Palma, I will definitely choose this hotel again.

We stayed here just one night when we arrived on La Palma late evening (as planned) and this was ideal. Very central, close to several restaurants, cosy & comfortable room, quiet despite being so central, and a great breakfast in the morning. We didn’t book a superior room (on the top floors, with sea views over the roofs opposite) but didn’t feel we missed out when our balcony looked out onto a charming street in the old town. And they have a kettle in the room so you can have a cup of tea in the morning - luxury! Really friendly and helpful staff, too. Highly recommended.

Fabian greeted us upon arrival and provided better local information than we obtained from ANY of our previous hotels. His English is Perfect, very helpful for us. He knows the island well, allowing him to provide great tourist advice. If you arrive by bus from the airport, note that there is a bus stop past Parade Nord that brings you closer to the hotel. We agree with the other positive reviews about this place, so won't repeat them. Highly recommend.

Excellent stay with good and modern facilities and a modern vibe. Fabian and his family have created a really very nice hotel experience in the old city centre of Santa Cruz de La Palma! The superior room offers a arge size room with kitchenette and balcony with seaview. Fantastic kingsize bed, great bathroom and excellent breakfast included. Amazing rooftop terrace too for enjoying a cocktail]! Highly recommended)! Hig

We spent a lovely couple of nights in Banana Garden in a huge room with a little kitchenette and wet room, all very contemporary, stylish and spotlessly clean AND a sea view. Breakfast in the little cafe was charming, and very eco and the staff were very relaxed and helpful.
