El Diamante — the name says it all: a rough diamond turned into a sparkling gem
El Diamante offers a detached location with a spectacular panoramic view and is situated near the small village of Tigalate, close to Fuencaliente, in the south of La Palma.
The surrounding area is sparsely populated, so that you enjoy peace and quiet there as well as fantastic views of the Atlantic Ocean and the lusty, harsh volcanic landscape. It is a place where the formation history of the island is unfolded in front of your eyes.
There are also a variety of destinations for trips and hiking tours. Those who go for this region certainly won't be disappointed.
Originally on this property there were only the formation walls of the living room. With loving attention to the detail the owners created a dreamlike country-style Holiday Home, which was finished in 2013.
The Holiday House is a perfect choice for a relaxing holiday for only one or two befriended couples.
The Holiday House was built and furnished in the traditional style
The rooms feature the Canary wood gabled ceilings as well as the typical window benches.
The furnishing is very tasteful and sophisticated blending perfectly with the Canary stylish elements.
Both wings of the 118 m² Holiday Home are laid out in a L-shape comprising two levels. There is a large south-east faced terrace front.
One wing features the kitchen and dining area as well as a bedroom with an ensuite bathroom.
The living room and the other bedroom with an ensuite bathroom are located in the other wing of the Holiday House. Between them there is a guest toilet, which is accessible from the kitchen, the living room and the terrace.
Living Area
The living room is spacious and light due to the glass doors providing access to the terrace.
Make yourself comfortable on the large sofa and enjoy an unspoilt view of the nature and the sea.
On a clear day you can actually see Tenerife.
There is a satellite TV for evenings you prefer the cosy atmosphere inside the Holiday House to the terrace.
Bedroom
One bedroom is directly attached to the living room and therefore located on the lower level of the Holiday House.
The bathroom is very tastefully equipped in the country-style and has a small bath tub with a shower facility, a wash basin and a toilet.
There is also a storage area for your personal things.
The bedroom next to the kitchen also provides an access to the terrace.
The window recess features a beautiful seating bench, which is perfect to make yourself comfortable and enjoy a good book.
The en-suite bathroom is like the other bathroom furnished with a small bath tub and shower facility, a wash basin and a toilet.
Kitchen
The separate kitchen is very well equipped and offers plenty of storage space and worktops.
Below the masonry worktop there is a storage space for your provisions and the kitchen utensils.
The kitchen also provides access to the terrace.
You can enjoy your meals on the dining table in the kitchen (seats 6) and have breakfast in the morning sun on the terrace.
Outdoor Area
Between the two wings of the Holiday House there is a terrace which is accessible from almost every room with wooden benches and a table with chairs.
It is a nice place to enjoy a dreamlike view of the mountains and the volcanic landscape in the south, the unspoilt nature and the deep blue Atlantic Ocean as far as the horizon.
On clear days you can actually see the neighbouring islands Tenerife, La Gomera amd El Hierro.
There is another beautiful view point on the Aljibe, a masonry water storage tank.
In a separate small house there is a utility room with a washing machine. Next to it there is a terrace sheltered from the wind and not visible from outside - a perfect place for your sun loungers.
Behind the house a nice green, terraced area with trees extends uphill.
In the evening the outdoor area is illuminated with lanterns, giving the country house an almost stately appearance.
