This is a really lovely hotel in a beautiful area. The rooms are comfortable and well proportioned. The only challenge currently is the breakfast/restaurant area where the staff are excellent but there were not enough of them. Hopefully that can be resolved in due course.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to El Hierro during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 has transformed how the world works in all sorts of ways, including how we're able to safely travel. These tips will help you better understand the new challenges and prepare you for your trip to El Hierro:
  • Understand what, if any, restrictions or rules apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check before you lock something in.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to briefly lower it for identification purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
  • Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, position your pass on the reader and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
  • TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will have to be removed from your bag for screening.
  • Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
  • If you're bringing food on the plane, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
