Vacation Home in Northern Tenerife, Icod de los Vinos, La Vega—Sea View and Ocean Breeze

Newly renovated, authentic Canarian 42-square-meter house built from stacked basalt volcanic stones. Some walls are left in their natural state (see photos). The ceilings are insulated and all systems are state-of-the-art; living-dining room with kitchenette, bedroom with a nostalgic double bed, bathroom, and rooftop terrace with a view of the sea and, at the back, the majestic Mount Teide (at 3,715 m above sea level, Spain’s highest mountain).

The house is located in the north on a finca in the small mountain village of La Vega, above Icod los Vinos, on a hillside about 580 m above sea level (lush and green, not quite as hot and dry as in the south). A small supermarket is about 200 m away, a small restaurant (bar, café) is within sight, and the bus stop is about 250 m away.

As seen in the pictures, on the 1,800 m² property at the entrance (carport) there is a huge, old palm tree, next to it are small Canary Island apricot trees, a mandarin tree, three fig trees, a laurel tree, man-sized cacti, and two bellflower trees.

Special rates and discounts are available for long-term renters staying 1 month or longer

It takes about 15 minutes to drive to the beaches (1,600 m as the crow flies), it’s about a 15-minute drive to Playa de San Marcos, one of the most beautiful beaches in the north, which isn’t too crowded. (There’s also a bus route from La Vega via Icod los Vinos.) It’s up to 20 minutes to Puerto de la Cruz, the second-largest city on Tenerife, and about 50 minutes to Tenerife South Airport or 30 minutes to Tenerife North Airport.

The finca is not far from Drago Park and other natural attractions, such as the Cueva del Viento (caves) and the Tide National Park. About 40 km away is the Bosque de la Esperanza, arguably the largest eucalyptus forest in Europe. Or the Masca Gorge, about 20 km away.... So it’s the perfect place to relax in nature
