Located on the south side of the island of Tenerife, in the heart of Candelaria, this villa’s fantastic location offers convenience and proximity to all the local amenities. Candelaria is a lovely, seaside town with a rich and interesting history that draws visitors of all kinds to it every year. The old village has been home to the patron saint of all the Canary Islands, Virgen de Candelaria, since the 1300s.
Its spiritual importance has led to Candelaria becoming a place of annual pilgrimage for thousands of religious travellers. A long, black sand and pebble beach fronts the town, where large rocks hold back the powerful Atlantic waves creating lagoon areas; perfect for a relaxing swim. The beach is lined with a wide promenade, which links the larger town of Candelaria with the smaller, tourist town of Las Caletillas.
The villa is just 20 minutes away from Santa Cruz de Tenerife, and 30 minutes away from the island’s capital, La Laguna and north of the island. Within a 10 minute walk, guests can be in the old town of Candelaria, where there is the Basilica of the patron saint of the Canary Islands, the Virgin of Candelaria, which can be seen in the distance from the top floor of the villa. In the opposite direction, there are multiple bars, cafes and restaurants that guests will love.
Just outside Villa Gitesh is everything guests will need: a supermarket, pharmacy, shops, restaurants, bars, etc. A short walk away there is the Punta Larga Mall, a large shopping centre with shops, cafes and even a cinema.
