With a lot of love and some great ideas, the owners of this villa have managed to give it a new lease of life, creating an architectural gem of a property with a total private pool area on La Palma.
Nestled in the green surroundings of the picturesque coastal town of Tazacorte, Casa Alma Marina offers a unique and comfortable living space in one of the most favourable climatic areas on La Palma in the Canary Islands.
A loft-style design concept is tastefully and skilfully in all the the three levels of this exceptional townhouse.
Upon entering the spacious, bright living and dining area with high ceilings, guests can expect an accomplished combination of classically styled features with modern architecture and clean lines. Numerous original works of art emphasize the high-quality living space. The open and perfectly equipped kitchen is an inviting space for cooking and enjoying food. In addition, for the rare rainy days in Tazacorte, cosy leather sofas and the Smart TV (including Netflix) offer alternative entertainment indoors. Outside, several terraces and seating areas provide ample sunny and shady spots to suit all preferences.
The 3 bedrooms are all equipped with high quality, orthopaedic mattresses. Each level has its own bright and attractively designed bathroom with shower.
Bathrobes are provide free of charge as well as the heaters on request.
A further highlight of this property is the spacious, panoramic roof terrace. Enjoy the sea views and the breathtaking sunsets in a secluded setting.
The solar-heated and skin-friendly salt water pool, 7 m x 3 m in size, is situated within the tropical garden of around 400 square metres. The pool can be reached from the ground floor bedroom with its own bathroom at ground level as well as via a 16-step staircase from the upper living area.
The secluded pool area with lounge furniture provides a perfect retreat after hiking or exploring the island. At the back of the property there is a gas barbecue and a further terrace with seating area. Even the rental car has its own shady spot in the private garage. When equipping and furnishing this house, special attention was paid to environmental friendliness and sustainability. For example through photovoltaics, the use of recycled materials and various efforts to avoid waste.
Tazacorte is one of the oldest and most beautiful towns on La Palma, in the Canary Islands. Tazacorte has a year-round, warm climate and the most hours of sunshine in Europe. Furthermore, in the nearby centre of Tazacorte there are supermarkets, small shops, various bars and cafés, restaurants and a pharmacy.
The island of La Palma offers breathtaking landscapes, remote beaches, imposing volcanoes, dense forests and incomparably starry skies.
With its 708 square kilometres, an elevation of 2.426m and its shape of a heart it is the most Western island of the Canary Island chain. Like every island in this archipelago, La Palma was created by volcanic activity. It is one of the youngest of the seven islands, dating back some 1.7 million years. The volcanic origin of La Palma is still clearly recognizable today, especially the southern part of the island with the dormant volcano Teneguía which last erupted in 1971, and offers interesting insights into its geological past.
The year-round mild climate with average temperatures between 18 and 27 degrees Celsius produce spring-summerlike weather as a result of the northeast trade winds.
This weather phenomenon is responsible for a pleasant subtropical climate and a rich green vegetation that prevails because of the humidity carried along in the trade winds. These moisture rich winds at certain times of the year also create a spectacular waterfall of clouds cascading down the central mountain faces and hence the nicknames Isla Verde – Green Island and Isla Bonita – Beautiful Island.
The unique geological structure of the island with its variety of vegetation zones and microclimates that are rarely found in the world on such a small area make this island a miniature universe. Each area of the island varies completely from another. In 1983 La Palma was declared a UNESCO biosphere reserve.
Another special feature of La Palma is the unique night sky. Due to its location in the Atlantic Ocean, sparse population, minimum light pollution and highest mountain peak Roque de los Muchachos 2.426m, the island was chosen as the location for one of the largest and modern observatories in the world.
The official population of the island is approximately 80,000 people. Traditional festivals such as the Bajada de la Virgen or Los Indianos carnival, famous far beyond the island’s borders, bear witness to the zest for life of the local people (Palmeros). Not only the geographical location, but also the numerous immigrants from Central and South America show a variety of Hispanic influences in island life, cuisine and cultural.
