Hotel Rural Las Calas is a traditional Canary Island country house with parts dating from the 17th century, now run as a delightful little countryside hotel. It nestles gently in the hamlet of La Lechuza, right in the heart of Gran Canaria. The house was renovated and converted to a hotel in 1999, and is decorated with traditional furniture with clear Arabic and African influences. It is an ideal place to take a break in a tranquil friendly atmosphere oozing with country charm, surrounded by gardens and indigenous vegetation that attracts a great variety of species of birds. All around, La Vega de San Mateo has protected nature reserves of ancient vegetation and an old watermill.

Las Calas provides seven unique guest rooms, being a mixture of double rooms, junior suites and a suite. All are decorated in a charmingly original and rustic style with lots of natural stone and wood, and equipped with private bathroom / shower, hair dryer, local TV with satellite channels, safe deposit box and a mini-bar. Some rooms are designated as "non-smoking". The hotel amenities include a bar, restaurant, room service, laundry and ironing services, a luggage room, internet access, swimming pool, sun terrace, private garage & car park and an astonishingly beautiful semi-tropical garden.

Las Calas is a perfect place to relax, and for playing golf, horse riding and walking in the beautiful countryside of Gran Canaria.

Restaurant:
