Cosy accommodation in Fuencaliente with enchanting Atlantic views
This restored, probably former bodega on the southern tip of the Canary Island of La Palma is very appealing and excellent for a holiday on Isla Bonita.
The flat is built into the rock, as is so often the case in the Canary Islands. One bedroom and the kitchen have open arches as access, which gives the accommodation an almost quaint ambience. However, the Scandinavian, light interior style prevents the furnishings from looking old-fashioned or even musty; on the contrary, the accommodation is top-notch and well ventilated.
From the kitchen, the dining area and the smaller bedroom you have a beautiful view over the terrace to the Atlantic Ocean and the fascinating sunrises.
Thanks to the porch, which protects the entire front of the house from the weather and provides shade, you will spend a lot of time outdoors.
There is also a table for four people and a cosy bench with a small table. Two sun loungers and another seating area with four chairs complete the terrace, from which you have an unobstructed panoramic view of the south coast, a vineyard and the vast Atlantic Ocean.
On a clear day, you can even see the neighbouring islands of Tenerife, La Gomera and El Hierro.
In addition to the sublime sea panorama, the remote location in the sparsely populated area also allows for a great view of the starry sky of the Starlight Reserve La Palma.
Villa Los Torrres II offers two brightly furnished bedrooms.
The master bedroom is open to the living area. The second bedroom opens out to the front, the bed there can be pulled out. The living area has a comfortable sofa area with flat screen TV with satellite and a dining area with seating for up to five people.
The separate kitchen also has an open arched access and is fully equipped with everything you need, such as a washing machine or a microwave (except a dishwasher).
The bathroom is equipped with a shower and, like the rest of the holiday home, is attractively decorated.
The approach to the house is a bit unusual at the beginning, but is completely compensated by the location.
You descend two stone steps to the house and the terrace in front of it.
By rental car, you can reach the accommodation from the airport in about 25 minutes. The island capital Santa Cruz de La Palma is about 35 minutes away. In Fuencaliente itself, following the main road near the accommodation to the sea, you will find several small beaches, such as Playa Echentive, Playa La Zamora (with a recommendable fish kiosk) or the beach by the two lighthouses near the salt works, where you will also find the theme restaurant "Jardín de La Sal".
Above Las Caletas in Los Canarios you can do your shopping and go out to eat.
Several restaurants and, for example, the wine cellar Bodegas Teneguía await you there. The bar "La Parada" with the famous almond biscuits "almendrados" and the award-winning bakery "Zulay" are also located there. Next to the visitor centre of the volcano San Antonio is the recommendable restaurant-bodega "Casa del Volcán".
