La Casita de Malnombre, Frontera Overview
La Casita de Malnombre is located in Frontera, Spain. Rated 10.0 out of 10 based on 1 guest reviews.
La Casita de Malnombre is a holiday home in Frontera, El Hierro, designed for travelers who want space, quiet, and an island rhythm. Set at C/ Malnombre Nº 8 in the Tigaday area, it suits guests who prefer to base themselves outside the busiest spots while still reaching the coast and viewpoints by car. The property is a non-smoking stay with a terrace and barbecue facilities, so evenings can be as simple as grilling and eating outdoors after a day on the island roads. Inside, you’ll find a well-equipped setup with three bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and flat-screen TV, plus two bathrooms for easier morning routines.
The surrounding landscape is part of the appeal: Playa del Verodal is about 11 km away, and Frontera’s volcanic viewpoints and hiking access are within a short drive, making it practical for road-trip itineraries. A recent guest rated the stay 10/10, highlighting the overall experience and care taken by the host. Expect a cleanliness-focused approach between stays, with guest rooms disinfected and enhanced measures such as hand sanitizer in key areas and staff following local safety protocols.
This is best for families and pet owners who want a home base with room to spread out, and for couples or small groups who plan to explore El Hierro’s beaches and biosphere landscapes rather than spend time in a city center. If you’re traveling with a car, the free parking and offsite parking options with discounted rates make day-to-day logistics straightforward.
