For the observant guest there is plenty to see on the Finca La Mareta: without haste and with a great deal of feeling in collecting the unusual, the owner has bit by bit integrated collectable items into the ambience of the Finca, for the entrance he was inspired by a historic church porch.

Between lush green succulents the paths and steps of natural stone lead the way to the three cottages.

Tucked in between bizarre rock formations this holiday idyll radiates a sense of tranquillity. The reason for this may be the prehistoric sites of the Guanchen hidden from sight under the black lava of the surrounding countryside. Close by one can see evidence of these once inhabitants of the Canary Islands.    

The Finca - 100 metres above the ocean - enjoys a solitary position. Altogether ten persons find accommodation in a large (Casa Montaña) and two smaller cottages (Casa Papagayo and Casa de  las Flores) with tastefully decorated interior, ideal for a relaxing vacation. 

The large kitchen of the Casa Montaña reminds one of a comfortable farm kitchen with its country-style accessories. Here is not just room enough for a whole family but also for a couple of stuffed birds, chickens sitting comfortably on a beam under the rafters.

A rustic household for two persons is the Casa de las Flores. Almost each piece of furniture is an old family inheritance, beautifully and lovingly maintained. Excellently solved is the planning of the rooms in the two smaller houses with adjacent kitchen, living corner and bathroom.

The interior design of the Finca La Mareta was the owner's special hobby and has its own history.

The high pointed rafters of the Casa Papagayo give a light and lofty touch to the friendly bedroom which has direct access to the garden. This tastefully furnished 'aviary' offers a cosy, quiet and homely holiday domicile.
