About

La Guapa is a central Puerto de la Cruz bodega where the drinks, antiques, music and local crowd are the point of the visit. Reviews describe it less as a formal restaurant and more as a characterful evening room: Canarian wine, strong sangria, tapas, traditional music and musicians who can keep the place moving for hours.

Use it for a drink, tapas and atmosphere, whether you are alone or with friends. It is not the right choice for a quiet polished dinner, but it is exactly the kind of small bar that can turn into a memorable night if live music is on.

Guest review summary

Commonly mentioned by visitors.

Live music can turn a drink stop into the whole evening.

Sangria and Canarian wine are repeatedly praised.

The antique-filled room and local crowd give it more character than a standard resort bar.

It is not a quiet formal dinner room.

We were there on New Year's Eve, 25/26, and it was the best choice. The band that played, Nuria and the wonderful Cuban drummer, were exceptional. So much energy, so much joy, so much passion! An incredible night. Singing and dancing for five hours with only short breaks is something only professionals can do. Bravo to the team and congratulations to the band!

Thanks to all of you, we will be back!

Nuria & co., we send you our warmest regards. Manuela and Andru from Romania

Review for Bodega Lela La Guapa – The Gem in Puerto de la Cruz

If there were more stars to give, I would gladly give them all! Bodega Lela La Guapa is an extraordinary place right in the heart of Puerto de la Cruz. It’s not just a bodega; it’s an experience that brings together history, music, culture, and incredible food in a way that feels truly unique.

The location is perfect – central yet warm and inviting, with prices that make it accessible to everyone. Despite being situated in such a prime spot, it offers amazing value. Whether you stop by for a quick drink or stay the night to enjoy the live music, you’ll leave feeling like you’ve had an experience worth far more than you paid for.

The decor is breathtaking. The walls are filled with fascinating antiques that make it feel like you’ve entered a living museum. Everywhere you look, there’s something to admire, a perfect combination of history and charm that fits beautifully with the vibrant energy of the bodega.

And then there’s the food and drinks. The sangria, made with authentic Canarian wines, is unforgettable – the perfect blend of sweetness, freshness, and local flavours. Paired with their tapas, which are as deligh

I don't usually leave reviews but this place earned it within the first 10 minutes of my first stay. Lovely place, traditional music and exceptional drinks. I would highly suggest you get yourself a sangria as its the best one I've had in Tenerife. The staff is super and the atmosphere is always interesting.
