La Lavanda, Vega De San Mateo Overview
La Lavanda is located in Vega De San Mateo, Spain. Rated 9.0 out of 10 based on 7 guest reviews.
La Lavanda is a family-friendly retreat in Vega de San Mateo, Spain, set on Hornillo Nº 31 and suited to travellers who want space, privacy, and mountain air. With a guest rating of 9/10 from seven reviews, it’s the kind of place people remember for its calm atmosphere and practical comfort rather than fuss. The villa’s outdoor areas are a big part of the appeal: you can cool off in the swimming pool, spend time at the BBQ facilities, and relax outdoors with furniture in the open air. Air conditioning helps when the day warms up, and the property is non-smoking throughout, which many guests appreciate for a fresher indoor feel.
Location-wise, you’re well placed for exploring the island’s interior. Parque Rural de Doramas is about 6 km away for nature walks and greenery, while Roque Nublo is roughly 15 km for one of Gran Canaria’s most recognisable viewpoints. Vega de San Mateo town centre is around 1 km from the address, so daily essentials and local dining are within easy reach without needing long drives.
La Lavanda also stands out for accessibility. Facilities for disabled guests and wheelchair accessibility are listed, and the pool is fenced, which can make the outdoor setup feel more manageable for families. Parking is free, and there are offsite parking options with discounted rates available, which is useful if you’re road-tripping and want flexibility.
Best for families and road-trip travellers who want a quiet base near major natural landmarks, plus the convenience of free parking and outdoor living.
