I would look at either Olivenet https://olivenet.es/en/ or Avatel https://www.avatel.es/en/ . Both are very good and will sort you out. Olivenet offers a standby service so you can effectively pay a retainer when not there so sort of half switched off whereas Avatel is cheaper anyway so although they don't offer the standby service it balances out across the year. There are others but I think these are the best options. Just my opinion of course, others may say differently. I hope that helps.

Hi Mary,


Olivenet are very reliable for Broadband and IPTV.


When we first purchased our property, they were unable to provide services to our location,  but since they have been able to do so I have found them to be excellent.


Their TV packages are not the cheapest, but if reliability and consistent service is a requirement, I would always choose them against some of the other IPTV providers who were cheaper but a bit ‘hit and miss’ in terms of service in the period when the Olivenet service was not available to us.
