Volcanic soil, ocean breeze, and fermented grape juice that made me believe I could speak fluent Spanish after three glasses. ¡Salud!

It’s was a great experience! We took wine tasting with 4 different kinds of wine and 5 local products for 20€ and we got even drunk after that😆 Wine was tasty,territory is big ,they have museum inside and shop where I bought banana wine ! 10/10☺️

A great experience! Very good hosts and beautiful hacienda. We tried 4 different wines combined with cheese and pork leg. They had really good selection, we even bought a bottle because they have a nice gift shop with bottles of wines and different spreads and liquor.⭐️

We arrived at the place about 20 minutes after opening time. The local guy immediately offered us the possibility of a tour which we started with self guided tour of the museum with an explanation of the history of wine growing and all other details related to wine. This was followed by a wine tasting of our choice. with the wine we could sit under the terrace where there were tables with chairs. We spent about 1.5 hours on site tasting 4 wine samples and touring the museum and local gift shop. We highly recommend a visit to this place..

Great experience! They also have small wine, honey and agriculture exhibitions. Our wine tasting included 3 wines (white, rose and red - we had 2 different options for each type of wine), some goat cheese, honey and cheese spread.

Great experience. Tasty local wine and incredible sunset view

Wonderful experience! The museum is fascinating, extensive, and well designed. You learn some of the science behind winemaking and in particular the challenges of doing it in the Canary Islands. There’s also historical information about the islands as well as other agricultural products. Besides the museum, there are also gardens to walk through, a wonderful tasting room, an extensive gift shop, and a restaurant. We would absolutely visit again!

We had an outstanding tour (shout out to Feel Tenerife!) which culminated in a tour of the winery and a fantastic meal. Gorgeous views. Great tastes. The staff were very friendly. Highly recommend.

A Perfect Day at Bodegas Monje We really enjoyed our time at Bodegas Monje! The wine tasting and tour offered a fascinating glimpse into their winemaking process and historic cellar. Just the right balance of information, history and winemaking. We sampled four different wines, each paired with four differently aged cheeses, which made for a truly memorable tasting experience. The setting itself is absolutely stunning, with panoramic views of the vineyards and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. After the tour, we stayed for a delicious lunch on the patio that perfectly complemented the wines. The Croquetas de Jamón (Iberico ham croquettes with cheese) and the fire-roasted suckling pig were both exceptional. Perfectly prepared and full of flavor. It was the ideal combination of great food, nice wine, and warm hospitality. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Tenerife. A good escape from the touristy, overbuilt vibe of the south. A true must-do for wine lovers! 🍷

Beautiful winery and amazing wine tasting! The guide was very prepared and made the experience really enjoyable. Tried out 4 wines and taste was superb. Definetely a place not to miss out if you're around

My fiancé had surprised me on my birthday for a wine and cheese tasting at Monje and I had a really great day! The tour was really well explained and to see local artists work was a nice touch to the experience. I enjoyed my day and couldn’t not treat ourselves to a bottle of wine and souvenirs from their gift shop. Thank you for a great experience :)

What an amazing location! We did the wine tasting tour and the experience was fully complete. From the process of making wine to the full history of the winery and more, amazing tourguide with very good English. Can recommend to everyone! 😄

This place was wonderful! Not only did we do wine tasting and take a tour of the vineyard, but we also learned how to make mojo and then tasted some amazing food.

it's a nice place to visit, they have an interesting wine tour, good wines and tasty food, staff is very friendly, we enjoyed our time at bodegas Monje

Peacefulness

Beauty place to touch your soul..

(Translated by Google) A beautiful and individual church with its own interesting history and a small museum. (Original) Красива і по своєму індивідуальна церква зі своєю цікавою історію і маленьким музеєм.

(Translated by Google) A monument of great historical, artistic, and cultural value, it was declared a Site of Cultural Interest in 2005. Its significance goes beyond the religious, as it has been both a witness and a protagonist in the island's history. Although its beginnings date back to the 16th century, most of its current appearance is due to the renovations and expansions of the 18th and 19th centuries. It was one of the first churches to be built on the island, only after those in La Laguna, Santa Cruz, and Los Realejos. A notable event in its history is that, in 1572, due to a plague epidemic in La Laguna, the headquarters of the Island Council-Town Hall was moved to El Sauzal, making the Church of San Pedro the political and administrative center of the island for a time. Over the centuries, it has suffered damage from storms (such as the storm of 1788, which destroyed part of a nave and the original altarpiece) and has undergone several restorations, especially in the early 19th century and the mid-1990s. Architectural Features: Latin Cross Plan: Its main structure is organized in a Latin cross plan, a common design in religious architecture. Rectangular Sacristy: The sacristy attached to the church has a rectangular plan and is distinguished from the exterior by its hipped tiled roof. Former Side Nave (Future Museum): On the Epistle (right) side, an old side nave is preserved, currently in disuse, which is intended to house a future museum of sacred art. One of the oldest baptismal fonts in Tenerife, carved in marble, is preserved here. Dome and Coffered Ceilings: A striking and distinctive dome rises above the transept, considered a distinctive symbol of El Sauzal. The side chapels, both the Epistle and Gospel chapels, feature beautiful octagonal coffered ceilings. Main Facade: Facing west, it features a lintelled doorway with a cornice and a pediment-shaped finial with curvilinear ends, all in stone. Above this, an oculus or skylight also surrounded by stonework. 18th-Century Tower: The tower, with a quadrangular floor plan, is an imposing element. It has strong black stone corners and is divided into four sections separated by a stone band. Its wide rectangular openings lighten its architectural mass and give it a loftier appearance. The interior of the church is a true artistic treasure. It houses: Baroque altarpieces: Several high-quality works adorn the chapels. Flemish and Sevillian sculptures: Examples of different artistic styles of great value. Religious Painting Collection: Among them, the painting of Ánimas stands out, an anonymous 18th-century work depicting purgatory in vivid colors. Image of Saint Peter the Apostle: The image of the municipality's patron saint occupies a central place. Marble Baptismal Font: One of the oldest in Tenerife, it is of great historical interest. (Original) Monumento de gran valor histórico, artístico y cultural, declarado Bien de Interés Cultural en 2005. Su relevancia va más allá de lo religioso, ya que ha sido testigo y protagonista de la historia de la isla. Aunque sus inicios datan del siglo XVI, la mayor parte de su fisonomía actual se debe a las reformas y ampliaciones de los siglos XVIII y XIX. Fue una de las primeras iglesias en construirse en la isla, solo después de las de La Laguna, Santa Cruz y Los Realejos. Un hecho notable en su historia es que, en 1572, debido a una epidemia de peste en La Laguna, la sede del Cabildo-Ayuntamiento Insular se trasladó a El Sauzal, convirtiendo a la iglesia de San Pedro en el centro político y administrativo de la isla por un tiempo. A lo largo de los siglos, ha sufrido daños por tormentas (como la de 1788 que destruyó parte de una nave y el retablo original) y ha sido objeto de varias restauraciones, especialmente a principios del siglo XIX y a mediados de los noventa. Características arquitectónicas: Planta de cruz latina: Su estructura principal se organiza en una planta de cruz latina, un diseño común en la arquitectura religiosa. Sacristía rectangular: La sacristía adosada a la iglesia presenta una planta rectangular y se distingue al exterior por su cubierta de tejas a cuatro aguas. Antigua nave lateral (futuro museo): En el lado de la epístola (derecho) se conserva una antigua nave lateral, actualmente en desuso, que está destinada a albergar un futuro museo de arte sacro. Aquí se conserva una de las pilas bautismales más antiguas de Tenerife, tallada en mármol. Cúpula y artesonados: Sobre el crucero se alza una vistosa y peculiar cúpula, considerada un símbolo distintivo de El Sauzal. Las capillas laterales, tanto la de la epístola como la del evangelio, cuentan con hermosos artesonados ochavados. Fachada principal: Orientada al oeste, presenta una portada dintelada con cornisa y un remate en forma de frontón de extremos curvilíneos, todo ello en cantería. Sobre este, un óculo o lucernario también orlado de cantería. Torre del siglo XVIII: La torre, de planta cuadrangular, es un elemento imponente. Cuenta con fuertes esquinazos de piedra negra y se divide en cuatro cuerpos separados por encintado de piedra. Sus amplios huecos rectangulares alivian su masa arquitectónica y le dan una apariencia más elevada. El interior de la iglesia es un verdadero tesoro artístico. Alberga: Retablos barrocos: Varias obras de gran calidad que adornan las capillas. Esculturas flamencas y sevillanas: Muestras de diferentes estilos artísticos de gran valor. Colección de pintura religiosa: Entre ellas, destaca el cuadro de Ánimas, una obra anónima del siglo XVIII que representa el purgatorio con vívidos colores. Imagen de San Pedro Apóstol: La imagen del patrón del municipio ocupa un lugar central. Pila bautismal de mármol: Una de las más antiguas de Tenerife, de gran interés histórico.

Nice even on a rainy day, nice plants and flowers, but don't expect too much. Didn't visit the café but I think it would be worth a visit!

This is a small local park where women used to wash clothes from the spring. Lots of Lizards and great view of the sea. Other reviews mention a cafe. I visited here in August and no sign of a business up and running in the park. You can walk from El.souzal to Los Angelos through here if you dont want to go via the main road. Gates close at 7pm or 10pm depending on day/time of year.

Beautiful park with amazing views on ocean and El Teide

I can't understand such a high rating, maybe it is different at summer. We've been in November. The park is amazing and perfect if you start from the bottom (there are two entrances). However, everything above the "restaurant" is horrible and should not be visited. The restaurant was closed and inside (as well as the "terraces") was occupied by homeless people, resulting in a horrible smell and trash you have to go through as it is literally the only way to the exit. Total disappointment

A beautiful cascade park with lots of greenery. It can be used much better because it is a really nice place, but it seems a little neglected. A park with a nice view, with several artificial ponds with goldfish. Rest for the eyes and soul.

Absolutely beautiful place to visit. Stunning views to enjoy whilst eating or drinking something from the resturant.

Nice place for a short walk. The view was fantastic but the cafe was closed, so there was not much to do.

Great place for a dip in this beautiful urban harbor area with beautiful architecture on the background

Awesome views!

Picturesque viewing deck, one granite bench in the middle. Start of the rocky and steep hike to Rojas

Nica hiking trail starts from the terrace until the coast.

Very nice viewing deck, with a conservation park bellow which have paths leading to the sea. A point itself gives perfect views, especially of sunsets. If you are fit enough you can get down to the ocean via a rough stony path surrounded by vegetation and full of lizards running away from you. It really fun also a very intense cardio workout coming back into that steep rocky hill. I would recommended this viewing dock. There is no any special big parking area, but the street parking is good.

Beautiful romantic view of the sunset in Tenerife.

Nice little spot with a view.

The restaurant is part of the winery. They have an extremely wonderful location of the bay(beach area) from above. You can enjoy the sunset. The food is tasty and artistically decorated. We had the best time.

Beautiful location on the north side of Tenerife, with an amazing terrace with ocean and Teide view. The brunch set menu is a great option to have a taste of canary products. The selection of jams is really good. Interesting museum about wine traditions on the island, recommended.

Absolutely loved our visit at Xarko. The food was delicious and surprising, the staff couldn’t be friendlier (big thank you to José Luis who took great care of us and his recommendations were always spot on!) and the place itself very pleasant to spend an afternoon at. We’ll be back!

A restaurant that is not only in a location with breathtaking views of the countryside and the Teide volcano, but where you will also get delicious dishes for your sweet tooth😋The service is great, nice and very friendly! Be sure to come here when you have a trip around. Next to the restaurant you will find the Wine Museum with tastings of local wines and Canarian cheeses and a real vineyard!🍇

It’s a nice restaurant with an amazing view over a vineyard where you can enjoy beautiful sunsets… But there is a lot to be improved. First of all the table was broken and the wine towel was dirty. The food was average and slightly overpriced. On the positive side, there is a great choice of Canarian Wine and desserts. I hope these issues will be fixed in the future so we can enjoy this lovely restaurant again.

This restaurant serves amazing food, the best we've had on this island. Tastes are great, everything is super fine including service. We ate the avicado salad with prawns, ravioli and the balck pork (wow). Very recommended

Food was overall good but not stellar. Prawn ceviche plain weird, scallops truly excellent. Fish of the day slightly overcooked with too many extras and truffles ravioli great but that’s something that’s hard to spoil. The male waiter could not speak any foreign language and was slightly unpleasant. Dessert excessively sweet. Fine to try, the environment is really nice, but rather expensive for what they offer.

Amazing food and service! Had a pasta with mushrooms - so simple yet so complex in taste.

We can highly recommend this place. Food is superfresh and all dishes have a special twist. Location is great too.

Okish. Prepare to wait….a lot. The food was average. Expensive but the portions are big.

Booked a group dinner for 16 people here and it was an amazing experience. The food was so delicious and creative, I am still thinking about the mushroom carpaccio. The atmosphere is lively and cosy.

The food was so delicious, especially scallop sashimi, and the desserts were amazing! The service was very fast and professional.

All was excellent, and really different. The cheesecake was served like a hot cheese with salt and herbs, still tasting like a cheesecake, but better. They announced it would be the best of my life, and it actually was.

Awesome place to share some high quality food. The plates were huge, so be prepared to share some things. Food was delicious, we got awesome recommendations from the waiter and cook. Wine fits perfect to the food. Will definitely come back!

Best views of North Tenerife and Teide guaranteed. Access tricky (steps). Very pleasant service. We just had coffee and ice cream which was lovely. 1 star dropped due to lack of choice on ice cream but we will return again to this amazing place. The cakes look sensational.

We came for a snack with children around 4 PM. We were waiting more than 15 minutes for the waiter who we find out was having a break ... He came to our table at 4:20 and told us their kitchen is already closed (it was written it should close at 4:30 PM). Our kids were very hungry so we have ordered some drinks and coffee. Another 10 minutes and incompleted order, so we have ordered again. We never get the original order. Why the guy is not writing down the order when he is unable to remember all stuff, I do not know... This caffees has a great location but the service is soo poor. Not mentioned that first time we came here we were refused to order just coffees, as that time was only brunches (but many empty tables). Do not recommend!

Absolutely lovely place in a very nice park. You have to do quite some stairs to get there though, no matter what side you come from, but it’s definitely very scenic. The food is simple and the service can be a bit slow. But if you have time, it’s certainly worth a visit.

A real gem. Nice staff, good food and great selection of drinks. And on top homemade ice cream, not to mention the marvelous view of the sea and surroundings.

Beautiful location in nature, be prepared to take a small hike down the stairs. The view is amazing! The food was just okay. I ordered a vegan toast to then be told the bread is not vegan. It had just some vegetables on it. I asked for some Avocado with it and in the end was charged 3,50€ for that, which is almost as much as the whole toast cost. There were two signs advertising free WiFi, but they told us there is no WiFi! Chairs were uncomfortable. Shame because the location is great.

This place is amazing! Great food! Beautiful view, simply the best place to eat brunch on the island !

The level of arrogance and poor communication skills of the waiters were truly outstanding. I barely ever experienced such behavior in Tenerife. Such a shame since the location and views are excellent. You are better off walking up to the main square and spend your time at Rico Rico.

Nice views .very popular. Barbecue meat .Good service. Was not happy with the people smoking inside the eating area. I thought that was not allowed.so no 5 stars .sorry .

This "guachinche" is one of the most popular local restaurants in the area. It's menu is simple but various. The german sausages with spicy curry and the padron peppers are gorgeous. But I love overall the

Amazing place, food is great, owners are really nice and welcoming people, a bit hard to find but that's the beauty of it.

The carne fiesta melted in my mouth. The other food was good too, but expect quite greasy food.

(Translated by Google) It is recommended to go and try the chickpea. There is a small parking space upstairs, but it is better to leave it downstairs if you don't arrive early. Request a table in advance, especially for outside tables. As a curious fact, they allow you to bring your dog. Several tables had their pets under the table, of course, not a single bark was heard from them. (Original) Recomendable ir a probar la garbanza. Para aparcar hay un pequeño hueco arriba, pero mejor dejarlo abajo si no llegas temprano. Pedir mesa con antelación, sobretodo para las mesas de fuera. Como dato curioso, permiten llevar tu perro. Varias mesas tenían sus mascotas bajo la mesa, eso sí, ni se les escuchó un sólo ladrido.

(Translated by Google) I must say that the place has everything to be a "guachinche": plastic tables, vegetation, Canarian food, but there are several things to improve, first they should insulate the electricity motor a little better because you can hear it from the dining room, then the times , it took them a while to bring the things and there weren't that many people. You have to be a little kinder to the customer, we asked for the chopped chicken and the answer was no, the food gets cold, then they didn't have a data phone but there were no signs to warn us and finally the price, they are very expensive for the quantity and for the rest of the things already mentioned (Original) Debo decir que el lugar tiene todo para ser un "guachinche" mesas de plástico, vegetación, comida canaria, pero hay varias cosas a mejorar, primero deberían de aislar un poco mejor el motor de electricidad pues se oye desde el comedor, después los tiempos, tardaron en traer las cosas y no había tanta gente. Hay que ser un poquito más amable con el cliente, pedimos el pollo troceado y la respuesta fue que no, que se enfría la comida, después no tenían datáfono pero no había carteles que avisaran y por último el precio, están muy caros para la cantidad y por el resto de cosas ya mencionadas

(Translated by Google) It's a little difficult to get to but it's worth it. Cheap and delicious food, especially the sirloin and eggs! In addition, the waiter was very friendly and the place was cheap (but you can't pay by card). (Original) Es un poco difícil llegar pero merece la pena. Comida barata y deliciosa, en especial el solomillo y los huevos! Además el camarero muy amable y el sitio barato (pero no se puede pagar con tarjeta).
