Los Jazmines is a holiday rental of the highest order. I had it for a week at the end of Sept/start of Oct; it was a particularly hot week with daytime temps around 36-38C. The property has a fantastic outdoor covered area with cushioned seating which faces due North, the sun swings round behind the property and sets over in the direction of Tenerife in the evening. We were delighted to have this beautiful covered area which shielded us from a very hot sun. The cool outdoor shower was a very welcome addition, too. The front garden is a treat with jasmine, hibiscus and a lovely pomegranate tree.
Inside there is a very functional kitchen with everything you could need to knock up a modest breakfast or prepare a feast to be shared by multiple diners in the wonderful dining room, complete with beautiful table and chairs. A room that unfortunately saw no use from my mother and myself.
The living area has a lovely feel, a large feature window giving mesmerising views of the mountains and Agaete valley. Again the decor is really ethnic in feel with a strong African/South American feel. You can tell this has been a family home, and one that the owner has taken great pride and time in configuring.
The bathroom has a very good shower, spacious with good pressure. It has an overhead rain shower as well as a smaller, adjustable shower head. A large mirror and good sink.
There are two double bedrooms, one bigger than the other. Both are comfortable with good mattresses and plenty of hanging space for clothes.
My dealings with Orietta, the owner, were nothing less that prompt, courteous and very professional. It is very important to her that everything is right with your stay at Los Jazmines. Unfortunately we did not get to meet her in person as she had other engagements at the time of our visit.
In summary, this place is just gorgeous. Very relaxing indeed, with every detail considered. We found it very hard to leave, only venturing to the the local harbour town of Puerto de las Nieves - which is just great and is worthy of a review in its own right. So, thank you Orietta, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Los Jazmines.
