History

Hotel Rural LIVVO Maipez occupies a completely renovated 19th century Canarian house that preserves the identity of a legendary Canarian residence. The name 'Maipez' comes from a rocky crag resulting from eruptions of several nearby volcanoes, a geological element that characterizes the property. The preservation of the ancient stone walls, combined with the perfect integration of wooden decoration and iron furniture, enhances the beauty of the traditional Canarian architecture. The 30,000 m² estate is guarded by the Maipez - the lava flow that gives it its name - and surprises with its natural surroundings and exquisite Canarian architecture. The renovation respected the historic roots while incorporating modern amenities such as spa, sports facilities and relaxation spaces.

Restoration

2010

19th century Canarian house of traditional architecture with preserved original volcanic stone walls, which are combined with hardwood decoration and wrought iron furniture characteristic of Canarian rural houses. The construction respects the canons of the vernacular architecture of the archipelago: thick stone walls, ceilings with exposed wooden beams, interior patios and large windows that take advantage of the Atlantic light. The complex is embraced by the beautiful landscapes of the Guiniguada Ravine, combining tradition and comfort under the authentic Canarian seal. The 30,000 m² estate includes gardens, traditional farming areas and the Maipez volcanic rock overlooking the property. The 11 rooms maintain the rustic-elegant character with high ceilings, solid wood furniture and Canarian textiles.

The Surroundings

Islas Canarias

The hotel is located in the heart of Barranco del Guiniguada, about 10 minutes from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and 15 minutes from the airport. From here, the Barranco de Guayadeque, famous for its troglodyte restaurants and aboriginal sites, is a little over half an hour away by car. The environment is of volcanic nature with deep ravines, endemic Canarian flora and landscapes that show the authentic Gran Canaria far from the tourist areas. Within walking distance are the Viera y Clavijo Canary Garden (2 km), the Pico de Bandama (5 km) and Las Canteras (8 km). The area is ideal for hiking along traditional trails that connect valleys and peaks, exploring inland and rural Gran Canaria.
