Tabaiba guesthouse was fantastic. Karin and Sergio are really welcoming and very knowledgeable about the area. They have taken a lot of care to provide useful info for guests to plan their visit. The room was spacious and bed was really comfy! The kitchen was well stocked for cooking and breakfast was nice. I would recommend booking a guided hike with Sergio, h takes great care to share his knowledge of the wildlife and plants, and information about the area, and showed us beautiful views in the mountains.

My room was facing a noisy street, needed earplugs but slept well with those.

Lovely place in a lovely village. Beds were comfy, hosts really nice and friendly, and the kitchen and bathrooms were extremely clean! Breakfast was also OK. Great for hikers or solo travellers. Rooftop is exceptional!

nothing to complain about. I'm a light sleeper so took me a day to get use to a different bed.

First time solo hiking so this was perfect 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very clean, no noise after 11 so everyone could get a good night sleep. Breakfast (8-9.30) was included so you got to know a few people when you went for breakfast. Lovely, warm-up welcoming hosts! Great book with all great recommendations of hikes, food things to do. 1 shower/toilet for 3 rooms which was never a problem. Lovely balcony up stairs, yoga mats and sitting area. Gym, pool and sauna 8 minutes away walking along the seaside.

Sergio and Karen are great hosts. Nice hostel, clean facilities, great WiFi. I also went on a hike with Sergio https://sergiowalkingtours.com/en/ Which was a great experience. He’s very knowledgeable about the geology and plants in the area.

If you're not too lucky you may end up in the room facing street and might wake up too early :)

It's great to feel welcome - very friendly host! Nice and clean room, recommend!

There is absolutely nothing to complain about. Beautiful house with wonderful hosts. Amazing view from the terrace. The town is lovely. I had a fantastic stay and would love to return someday. I would recommend it to anyone!

I didn't like that my partner and I had to have bunk beds- but a bigger bed didn't fit in the room. I also wasn't a fan that the window didn't have a screen on it, so when it was open at night (because it got warm) the misquitoes came in. Also it did get pretty warm sometimes and a fan would have been nice. Lastly, another bathroom would be amazing.

Everything was imaculately clean. This was so wonderful and comforting. It was also a wonderful first time hostel experience in that we had our own room. There was even a balacony on top of the building that was for community usage and it was such a beautiful view. The bus stop to get around was not far at all. They had books in the hostel that they made giving tipps for good places to eat, travel, things to do etc.. that was really thoughtful.

All was great!

A really nice, super clean place with everything you need to spend a great time. Apart from what is written in other reviews, I especially loved and appreciated the amount of information the owners put together to give you tips and advise on what to visit, where to eat, hot to get where, the detailed information on hiking trails, the maps and books about tenerife, etc. I have not seen this anywhere else sand I found it absolutely awesome! Also, the location is great as Buenavista del Norte has great bud connections to Teno, Punta de Teno, El Palmar, etc. it is very easy to start hikes or trips from here and the town itself is very cute! plus the coastal walk is stunning! Last but not least, the owners are exceptionally welcoming and will make it difficult to leave;) I highly recommend!

Nothing much really.

Sergio and Karin were were friendly and helpful hosts. The place was spotless and positioned closely to a lighthouse with amazing views.

A cozy and warm place to stay at. The room and bathroom were very clean. The guesthouse was the perfect location to start out from for many hikes due to its central location. Furthermore, Karin and Sergio were very kind hosts and gave us a lot of useful tips for hikes. Thank you for the wonderful stay and we will definitely come back one day!

Tabaiba Guesthouse is the perfect location if you want to visit the beautiful Parque Rural de Teno and a strategic start point to visit Parque Nacional del Teide if you want to avoid the crowd and the tourist mess of Tenerife South. Buenavista del Norte is a small village but offers all you need: groceries, shops, restaurants and bars. The house is an ancient and typical canary building, renovated with care and love by the owners. The view from the rooftop is simply amazing and offers a gorgeous set when you want to chill out after a hike! Karin and Sergio are truly lovely guests: they warmly welcome their hosts and take care of them during the stay. I would definitely recommend Tabaiba if you're planning to visit Tenerife North and if you like outdoor activities.

The rooms cost a bit too much

Everything was perfect, met a lot of nice people and the owners helped a lot to find points of interest and ways of reaching them

Breakfast was basic, just some cereal, ham, cheese and fruit. The staff knocked on our door on 2 occassions during the checkout day to remind us of the checkout time and to start taking out the trash. During checkin they forgot to send us the code to get the keys, but thankfully they were inside the property to help us out.

Clean and comfortable rooms. Coffee and tea whenever you want. Freshly baked bread available every morning. Helpful staff, which is clearly passionate about hosting. The owner also offers great hiking tours around the area. Lots of good recommendations and information about the town and parks. Easy to access from the bus station.

Poor breakfast and the description didn't mention it is a youth hostel. The hosts "kindness" was a bit too much and according to other places we stayed it was expensive.

Liked the nearby city center and the surrounding scenery.

Stayed in November 2023

Room very, very hot, needed a fan. Window open but very noisy from road. Had to walk past breakfast area to shared bathroom. Expensive for hostel type accommodation.

Location was ideal. Very clean. Host very knowledgable about area.
