El Aljibe

The bedroom and living room in El Aljibe are what make this villa truly unique. Restored from a 200 year old water reservoir, these two rooms sit inside a majestic atmosphere. Hand-crafted furnishings, atmospheric lighting, and remarkable paintings and sculptures by some of the island’s finest artists enhance the sheer rock walls, as well as a high definition surround-sound stereo system to make full use of the property’s extraordinary acoustics.

The master bedroom, located in a mezzanine floor, sits just below the exposed rock arches that have concealed El Aljibe for centuries, while a large window lights up the bedroom area and has lovely views of the garden. This villa is the ideal destination for a romantic vacation, or even a honeymoon, or perhaps just a once-in-a-lifetime indulgence and has been rated as one of the Top 100 places to stay by Grand Viajes magazine.

The villa’s top floor boasts a modern kitchen, ample bathroom and private terrace with a built-in Jacuzzi. In addition, guests of El Aljibe have access to a 4,500 m plot of land shared with Casa Catalina I & II, as well as a heated pool.

This section of the island is home to some of the most captivating scenery and spectacular views thanks to the history of volcanic eruptions in this area, and help from local artist César Manrique.
