The property features two guest houses that have been converted
from unearthed 150 year old water storage tanks and provide
for 150 sq. metres (1610 sq. feet) of living space. Its spectacular
stone roof arches and a lava grotto remain intact. The guest
houses exemplify the unique use of volcanic rock, which personifies
the natural environment of the Island. Each guest house forms
a separate and completely self-contained unit with its own
terrace space and is equipped with the latest modern conveniences.
Guest house 1 provides for two double bedrooms and an alcove
capable of sleeping two extra persons. The main bedroom
has a shower en-suite with tropical garden. Another bathroom
has full suite.
Guest house 2 has one double bedroom with separate shower
room. From its living area one looks onto a tropical garden
amidst an original lava grotto.
Each house is furnished with style and flair and provides
for a living room, including TV, DVD player and Hi-Fi unit,
dining area and a small open plan kitchenette.
The guest houses also exhibit the influence of the late
artist Cesar Manrique, in particular the use of natural
lava and interesting combinations of colour. The eclectic
mix of natural materials and antique Canarian furniture
have been combined with quirky modern artwork and unique
touches such as tiles from an ancient Italian church.
Both guest houses share a large cactus garden and each has
its own terrace space with patio teak furniture, sunloungers
and king-size parasol. The garden and terrace are reminiscent
of a giant grotto as both have been carved out of the volcanic
rock and are surrounded by walled lava terraces. Each terrace
has been planted with tropical palms creating a lovely backdrop
to the pool and garden. The circular shaped heated swimming
pool features a waterfall. The unusual design forms a sheltered
sun trap, which is totally secluded and unoverlooked. Other
facilities include a barbeque grill and poolside shower. |
