El Sitio

We was a small party of 7 persons staying in 4 rooms. The accommodation is very well set out and suited our needs perfectly. Lots of small areas to relax and enjoy the evenings. The local area has good restaurants and a very challenging walk to the peak of the island. Views not to be missed. Great island to explore. Will definitely return some day

I have always been a great fan of public transport -especially when travelling- and I like to feel my blood running through my legs, so it can take quite a while before reaching El Sitio but once you have crossed the green wide open front door you do enter a small paradise.

I counted 7 casitas, terraced against a hill, each named after a local village. The casita “Guarazoca” which I rented sits at the highest level of the premises offering stunning views of the entire Golfo area and is a perfect spot to enjoy seeing the sun dive into the ocean. The entire place was spic & span and everything one needs to cook from plain scrambled eggs for a lone traveller to full sized meals for large households is available. Moreover, outside is a BBQ area where guests can gather should they feel to do so.

The main house of El Sitio houses the reception but is also a gathering place with an honest bar filled with among others local wines, and, for the readers among us there are very nice books about the nature and culture of El Hierro. Finally, it should not come as a surprise that at El Sitio yoga and tai chi courses are organized on a regular basis…

Highly recommended for those who are looking for a serene place to balance their body and mind!

El Sitio is such an inspiring place, beautiful views and gardens, with little sculptures and stone carvings to find among the plants. Yes the facilities are quite basic but all you need with a little kitchen, extra blankets and a heater if it's cold (the temperature drops a lot at night). The beds are comfortable too, although they are all singles. We did several hikes led by Ralf, who works in reception as well as having his own business leading hikes. These hikes were really great - good routes with lovely views and explanations of history and plants. Well worth doing. We also hired electric bikes from the hotel down the road which were a great way round the hills of El Hierro - but see if you can plug in the charger at lunchtime as they ran out about an hour before we got back! 
We did survive all week without a car but you would definitely see more with a car.  There is a little restaurant/bar about 10 minutes walk away, and supermarkets in Tigaday about 20 minutes walk. There are only about 4 buses a day, but plenty of taxis, although they are not cheap.
I can't wait to go back!

I loved my Tacorón room, and I was always happy to come back 'home'. If you want an ensuite bathroom choose another casita, though. 
The availability of staff was the only thing that I found lacking: the German owners were in Germany and staff in El Sitio was only available on Tue. and Fri. in the morning, which is not much.
Apart from that I can certainly recommend this place.

Very rustic and beautiful traditional buildings, well kept gardens and clean and tidy rooms. Spectacular views and friendly staff. Used the bbq twice during our 4 night stay and the only complaint was the amount of wasps surrounding us forcing us to eat inside. Other than that if you want peace and quiet and a central point to tour the island this place is exceptional. I hope to return soon

Relaxing

What a peaceful place to unwind, far from the madding crowd!

Beautiful and inspiring

Room was clean, apart from the bathroom being invaded by ants. Guess this is the price you pay for nature. 
Place itself is nice, garden, flowers, nicely kept. 
Room small, bathroom with thin walls. Not enough hot water for two to shower. Nice private terrace. Kitchen equipped to the minimum needs. Location out of area, no car, no fun. 
Not their fault: weather in March. Cold. Cloudy. Room cold. 
Internet. Even 3G not available sometimes. No Wifi except at reception. You need to change that. No WiFi in the room a nogo. 
To sum it up: easy going, pricing a little above value provided. Ok for a few days. 
Nice restaurant and boozer up the hill.
