The practical stuff, plainly. Everything here is checked against the relevant official source; what we could not verify, we do not publish, and we say so.
Emergencies
Healthcare
A detail that reassures a lot of people: the public reference hospital for this whole district is in Icod de los Vinos itself, at Buen Paso. There is no need to drive to La Laguna. It has adult and paediatric emergency departments.
Safety
Shopping
Beyond the large supermarket, the old town has neighbourhood shops, bakeries and a municipal market. If you are going to cook at the house, it is worth buying the cheese, the fruit and the local wine there.
Local information
Finca Julia is a few minutes from all of this.
