Shimmering Atlantic

Shimmering Atlantic: Canary Islands

In the quiet coastal resort of Callao Salvaje, this villa is just a fifteen-minute walk from the black sand of Ajabo beach. Here, you’ll find plenty of restaurants, bars and places to hire windsurfing equipment. Within the back garden, a terrace lined with columns is a classy spot for alfresco lunches and you’ve got a sea view in the distance from poolside loungers. It’s surprisingly flashy inside, with a marble-clad lounge perfect for those that like to entertain in style and ornate archways leading from the lounge, to the grand dining room, to the kitchen and out onto the terrace.

Home truths:
*There are shops and restaurants within walking distance, so a car is not necessary but there is private parking if you wish to hire one
*Your host can provide a complimentary cot and high chair – this must be requested at the time of booking, and you’ll need to bring your own cot linen
*For those with reduced mobility, this home is entirely on the ground floor
*This home does not have air conditioning, but there are fans in all of the bedrooms
*The swimming pool isn't fenced, so children will need to be supervised at all times
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*The swimming pool can be heated on request for free
