At the green north coast of Tenerife,
between Tacoronte and Puerto de la Cruz, lies the village of "La
Matanza", situated in the centre of the northern sunny district that
extends up to El Sauzal. It is here that the holidaymaker still finds
some typical rustic bodegas, where good Canarian meals are served and a
glass of wine is shared with the locals.
During the weekends, the
farmer's market in La Matanza gives you the opportunity to buy fresh
fruit, vegetables, wine and other products offered by the local
farmers. All major shopping facilities are to be found in the village
itself.
The south Tenerife airport is about 80 km, the northern airport
around 20 km away. The capital of Santa Cruz is situated at about 35 km
and Puerto de la Cruz at 15 km. The small family run holiday resort
"Cuco Azul" is situated at a precipice about 200 m above sea level
offering a fantastic view on the Atlantic, the Teide and the Orotava
valley. Besides, it is situated in the preferred area of La Matanza and
is surrounded by a lush tropical garden with palm trees, cactus,
avocado and lemon trees.
Quite
rightly, the visitor feels as if he were engulfed in a green oasis,
far away from mass tourism, and able to enjoy the reigning peace.
Time after time, guests praise the idyllic character of this
location. This counts for the unforgettable sunsets too, which can be
seen from the terrace. The "Faisán Azul" is a paradise for
every botanist and gardener, since it was designed as a small
botanical garden. In the surrounding countryside, there are banana
plantations and many small vineyards to be found. The wines from this
region belong to the best the island has to offer. There are some
restaurants nearby that can be reached in just a few minutes´ walk.
Guests have shared use of a swimming pool (8,5 m x 4,5 m). Internet
access is possible by WIFI if your laptop has an adapter.
