Casa Mariposa, Las Palmas

Casa Mariposa is a small, non-smoking guesthouse in Las Palmas, Spain, set at 3 Calle la Obsidiana Piedra Hincada for travelers who want a quieter base while still reaching the island’s highlights. With a guest rating of 8/10 from 27 reviews, recent visitors tend to describe the stay as calm and restful, especially after day trips, and several mention enjoying time outdoors on the terrace. The hot tub/Jacuzzi is a standout for wind-down moments, while air conditioning helps keep evenings comfortable when temperatures rise. For road-trip friendly guests, the property’s free parking is a practical advantage, and there are offsite parking discounted rates available if you’re planning to explore widely.

The location suits people who prefer nature over nightlife, with Playa de San Juan about 6 km away for beach time and Los Gigantes Cliffs roughly 92 km for dramatic coastal scenery. If you’re aiming for big landscapes, Teide National Park is around 110 km and makes a memorable day trip for hikers and photographers. Reviews also highlight the value of guest education on local ecosystems and culture, which can turn a simple outing into something more meaningful, and packed lunches are useful when you’re out for long stretches.

Best for solo explorers and couples who like to balance relaxation with active sightseeing, Casa Mariposa works well when you want a comfortable, low-key base, a place to recover between excursions, and the option to book massage services when you want extra attention after a busy itinerary.
