Modernly designed vacation home on a 40000 m² finca in a secluded location

Wir haben uns Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Die Sonnenschutz am Fenster sollten repariert werden damit er nicht zu warm wird.

La casa estaba genial, pero la pena es que no pudimos disfrutarla estos días porque nos coincidió con la peor ola de calor de los últimos 50 años y estar en casa era imposible. Sólo íbamos a dormir. Tuvimos mala suerte porque la casa estaba en un entorno espectacular. La anfitriona también fue super amable. Volveremos.

Meine Frau und ich hatten eine wunderschöne Woche in diesem Haus. Obwohl das Haus nicht unbedingt groß ausfällt, ist alles vorhanden, was man benötigt und genügend Raum für alle und alles. Man hat hier nicht nur einen traumhaften Blick auf Landschaft und Sternenhimmel, sondern schläft auch auf den bequemen Bettmatratzen sehr gut. Die Lage des Hauses ist perfekt für alle, die Ruhe suchen und ungestört bleiben wollen. Kurz oberhalb des Hauses starten zwei Wanderwege und Puntagorda ist mit dem Auto nur einen Katzensprung entfernt. Dort findet man dann mehrere Bio- und Supermärkte mit allem, was man benötigt. Die Verwalterin des Hauses, Birgit, ist sehr nett, kompetent in allen Fragen und überaus hilfsbereit! Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Since most of the reviews are written in German (and the homeowners are German) I think its time to open up this gem to non-German speaking travelers to La Palma. Casa Primavista is located on the west side of the island, about 90 minutes away from the airport. The nature of the island is such that you wont find very many properties with immediate access to the sea--but in Casa Primavista you have a superb view of the ocean about 800 meter below and about 2 kilometers out, as the crow flies. We traveled to La Palma at the end of October/beginning of November 2017. During that time one can expect the wet season to have set in, but we lucked out and enjoyed sunshine and dry conditions every day. We were told that it was much too dry for this time of the year and that the normal rains havent arrived. The area surrounding Casa Primavista looked like a tinderbox, and coming from the US I had to think of our recent wildfires in California and other states. The pine trees surrounding the house were green, but the almond trees looked pretty dead and even the cactus were suffering. So, the view was not of a verdant emerald island as one might expect.We had breakfast daily on the porch, with the sun coming over the hill around 9 am. From then on, you will have sun for the remainder of the day. There are four chairs and a solid table to have breakfast and dinner (which we did outside on several evenings). Oddly enough, there was hardly any wind at this high elevation, in the middle of the Atlantic. Temperatures were such that we could use the two chaise lounges in the late afternoons and watch the sunset without getting chilled; one day it was a little cooler and we just used some of the comfy throw blankets that the house offers.Most evenings we cooked at home. The kitchen is fully equipped, theres a big refrigerator with freezer compartment, and there are plenty of dishes, pots, etc. I always travel with my own knives since I like to cook, and like pretty much every rental place that I have been to, Casa Primavista had dull knives that dont cut too well. I also travel with a spice kit, but that was really not needed as the kitchen had an assortment of spices.The house is totally quiet, with no road noise. It is isolated from neighbors, so you have total privacy. Nevertheless, in five minutes you can be in Puntagorda (by car) where there are several grocery stores. Access is via a super steep paved road to the main highway. Overall, AAA !
