New wave Canaries
LA TimesTimes Staff Writer VISITORS to the Canary Islands come here with one thing in mind: the beach. The next day I toured the island’s snug, cheerful capital, Santa Cruz de la Palma. I was leaving early the next morning, but had to make one last stop at a 17th century chapel above Santa Cruz de la Palma housing the island’s treasured Virgen de las Nieves. Hotel Taburiente, 24-A Calle Dr. José Naveiras, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, 922-27-60-00, https://www.hoteltaburiente.com, has spacious, recently redecorated rooms in a building that overlooks García Sanabria Park; doubles $84 to $122, including breakfast. Pension Cubana is a simple, but pleasing 10-room hotel on the pedestrian-only Calle O’Daly in the heart of Santa Cruz de la Palma; doubles $30, with shared baths.
