Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Came here a part of a tour from our cruise ship. It was a rainy day so it wasn't looking its best and people didn't want to spend long outside listening to explanations of how the coffee is grown. There was wine and cheese tasting in a utilitarian building, and we felt this was primarily a sales opportunity.

Knowledgeable and fairly friendly staff in a lovely setting and plantation. The tour with a very generous selection of sweet and savoury nibbles, various wines and coffee (essentially lunch) is very good value at €12.

However, I must say I was disappointed by the insipid coffee (even worse than instant). The wine was fantastic though, despite coffee being the main event. Work on your coffee and you might get more stars in future.

The plantation is in a fantastic setting nestled between the hills and mountains with gorgeous views. The journey in, takes you through some stunning scenery and quaint little villages.
Once there you are met by the owner, a very passionate man who knows all there is to know about the production of coffee and guides the tour with such pride as he shows you around the farm pointing out all of the other crops grown. (I won't spoil the surprise as to what these are!)
You sample the coffee at the end of the tour and get a chance to buy bags for €10.
Cannot recommend this tour enough, it is definitely worth the trip.

My girlfriend had seen this on tiktok. Without expectations went looking for the gem in the valley. You have to look and be able to steer well if you want to come here because the street are rather tight and style. The tour was perfectly no appointment made (around 11 am) and we could go straight through. The guide spoke fine English and gave nice details about all kinds of plants. After walking through the plates a few times, we could roast, taste, smell and eat coffee. For 10 euros this is really worth it. And nice to have been once.

The tour was brilliant and informative. Antonio has a real passion for coffee and his enthusiasm rubs off in the tour. The information you learn is great for improving how choose coffee day to day. Make sure you bring cash to buy some!

the Place is truly Amazing: the landscape, the fruit everywhere (grapes, oranges, bananas, passion fruit, and more). The whole setting is idyllic.
so idyllic that you don't mind paying lots for their home-made coffee, wine and different sweet and savoury preserves.
SHAME that preserves ARE NOT THEIRS. they are produced somewhere else in the Canary Island area.
Furthermore PRODUCTS ARE OUT OF DATE. We bought a jar in Nov.2016 that had a best Before in... June 2015!!!!
sickening.
disguisting.
Yes, I know: we could have checked (like one does in a shop back home). But hello! you don't expect something like this to happen on a small family farm. Whre you are made to Believe Everything is fresh and produced on site.
we talked to Marie, a guide, on the Telephone and she promised to return the Money (even though we'd have much preffered the replacement of the Product), but 2 weeks later we still have not received anything.
so summing up:
GREAT PLACE BUT DON'T SHOP THERE

Go up probably the lushest valley on the island to find tropical fruit as well as oranges and lemons growing in this amazing narrow but fertile farming area. At the top you park and then walk on up under about 100 yards of vine pergola to find coffee bushes happily fruiting, while around the walls of the Finca the berries dry in special racks. Go in and try the distinctive wines and a cup of the lightly roasted coffee. Local ham and cheese set them off perfectly, as does a cake with the coffee. Taste oranges fresh from the tree and marvel at it all. This family-run enterprise is warmly welcoming and you can buy the coffee beans as well as wines and cheese.

DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE ONLINE! The finca has recently changed owners and they're not doing tours. Their website still allows you to book, but when you arrive you'll find the new owner washing hands about the situation. Apparently the former one, it's still getting business without providing any service. Luckily I paid with PayPal and got my money back.
Visit Cafe Platinum instead, really nice people and experience for the same price.

This is a great place for a half day trip from Ingles/Maspalomas. Last few kilometers are bit narrow streets, however you see the valley. The farmer was very nice, explained and showed all about coffee and process with tasting included. You can buy coffee, bit pricy but no going back without it. Well worth a visit!

We took a day off the beach and visited secluded Agaete valley to check the coffee plantation in Agaete. It was a lovely experience. Short walk through some coffee tree area, seeing different local fruit and other plants, meeting chicken which live on the property.

Walking up you can see oranges, mango, avocado, figues... all in natural habitat. If it is raining or after rain which is not very frequent you can ask for plastic poncho :-)

The tour ends in the sheltered seating area, where owners of the facility will explain every detail of small family coffee production company and also entertain you with description of details of steps of coffee production, while you sip on the cup of their yummy rare coffee and bite on delicious home made pastries. You will get to try manual coffee bean roasting as well. Of course there is some small shopping of local products possible, the roasted almonds are addictive. :-) cards are accepted :-)

Both owners are very friendly and nice :-) parking on the premises free of charge. Highly recommend :-)
