About this villa rental

This classic-style Canarian manor house is located in the northwest of La Palma and has a 180° panoramic view across the Atlantic Ocean to the horizon. The exclusive property with its park-like gardens and extensive terraces offers absolute peace and tranquillity in a completely secluded location. Perched on a hill, you can enjoy the view over the lush vegetation and a plot of 20,000 square meters, surrounded by fig and olive trees, succulents and countless palm trees. A long cypress driveway leads to the house - past the Mediterranean gardens and the surrounding untouched subtropical nature. The light-flooded villa with various architectural elements from the 1930s is surrounded by terraces that extend over several levels and invite you to relax with a variety of seating options. The spectacular pool terrace with a crescent-shaped infinity pool and the pool house designed in the Moorish style of the 1930s has the atmosphere of a movie set, perfect for enjoying the unique sunsets in the sea and the endless starry sky. A romantic water lily pond with blue water lilies is integrated into the dreamlike natural backdrop. Modern and classic sculptures by various artists can be found throughout the grounds. The adjoining picturesque panoramic terrace is the ideal place for a sundowner.

High-quality materials also define the interior design of the house, where whitewashed walls contrast with the warm wooden frames of the doors and windows. The stylish interior design is complemented by bright primary colors that provide a fitting backdrop for the design classics and Bauhaus furniture. The antique terracotta floors from France harmonize with Le Corbusier and modern accents. Wall tiles from Morocco, hand-picked North African art and carefully selected furnishing elements complete the ambience with great attention to detail. The silver-plated washbasins in the bathrooms were handmade in Marrakech.
The villa has 3 double bedrooms on two floors, 3 bathrooms and a large living and dining area in the basement with adjoining covered outdoor terrace. Indoor and outdoor areas seem to merge into the unique surrounding vegetation and the endless blue of the ocean. The thick, partly natural stone walls keep the house warm in winter and cool in summer. The central heating and solar-heated pool also make it possible to stay all year round. A very personal and private paradise for your stay.
Good to know...
Villa Botánica is located in Puntagorda, a picturesque village in the northwest of La Palma, a heart-shaped island with secluded beaches, volcanoes and dense forests. Located between the ravines of Garome and Izcagua, Puntagorda is surrounded by pine and almond trees and is famous for its almond blossom in January and February. Visit the Almendro en Flor festival in February with music, dancing and free almond and palm wine or the patron saint festival in August in honor of San Mauro Abad.
The Barranco de Izcagua and the forest of El Fayal are highly recommended excursion destinations nearby. A popular market, the Mercadillo, is held in the village at weekends, selling local produce, wine and cheese as well as handicrafts. Hiking trails lead directly from the villa into the unspoiled nature of the greenest island in the Canary Islands. The unique biodiversity of vegetation and fauna of “Europe's
Galapagos” are a unique natural spectacle.
La Palma is famous for its clear night skies with minimal light pollution, so you can experience a sky full of stars. The observatory on the Roque de Los Muchacho is one of the largest in the world and can be visited by prior reservation.

We said before we arrived at the villa we would be happy if it was 50% as good as the photographs. What we didn’t expect was it was so much bigger, better, and more beautiful than we could possibly imagine. The gardens are absolutely stunning, the house and interior design are just perfect. The attention to detail and quality is exceptional. Everywhere you look offers a feast for the eyes. The pool provides the most amazing view at all times, although particularly spectacular at sunset. The entire property is designed with comfort, relaxation and appreciation of the beautiful surroundings. The house manager Tina was so very helpful, especially when we had a minor road accident and she came with her husband to give us a tow! We loved every moment of staying at this unique property and are planning a return visit next year. No hesitation in recommending HIGHL!

Memorable week in a special place of natural beauty
Memorable week in a special place of natural beauty
Our brief stay in Villa Botanico turned out to be the hoped-for "all-purpose remedy" after a challenging winter and spring in central Europe. The villa and the surrounding property are exactly as described -- a paradise for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty, with an extra dose of Moroccan touch. We particularly loved the exquisite and lush garden area, providing several shaded places with small tables and chairs. The extensive pool terrace is equally terrific -- the site of many attempts to capture the daily manifestations of each stunning sunset. The views towards the ocean are completely unobstructed and the immediate environment is very quiet. We wished that we could stay longer!

Absolut ruhige Laage, toller Atlantikblick, sensationeller Garten

Das Objekt hat unsere Erwartungen in jeder Hinsicht erfüllt, solide sanierte Kanarenvilla mit viel Platz zum gemeinsamen Verweilen und auch Rückzugsgebiete. Der Blick auf den Atlantik war traumhaft. Die Außenanlagen war sehr aufwändig angelegt und gut gepflegt. In 5 Min zum Spar nebst frischen Brötchen, Bioladen und zum Pizzabäcker. Einige sehr gute Lokale waren in 10 bis 30 Minuten mit dem PkW zu erreichen. Gern ein zweites Mal. Rolf 52 Jahre

Wenn man drei Wochen in der Villa Botanic verweilt, hat man Gelegenheit alle Nuancen, die La Palma ausmachen, intensiv zu erleben. Sonne relativ kalt, bei circa 10 Grad, Regen, Sturm Nebel, bei circa 15 Grad, Sonne, bei Temperaturen um 25 Grad Celsius. Egal welches Wetter vorherrschte, die Villa hat sich immer wieder als wunderbares Domizil erwiesen. Als erstes wäre die Kombination von Kunst, Handwerk und Natur zu nennen. Um mit dem letzteren zu beginnen: diesen Garten muss man erlebt haben, erinnert an wunderbare alte Gärten in Italien. Immer wieder neue Eindrücke durch Formen, Farben, Flora, Fauna, der Atlantik. Man fühlt sich berührt, von dieser hörbaren Sille, von Bildung. Das Haus: von Aussen: sehenswert,besonders. Seine Architektur harmoniert in Farbe und Form mit den Nebengebäuden, den umfangreichen Terrassen, der Poolanlage. Da war jemand am Werk mit der Hand für das Detail. Bei kaltem Wetter ist die Villa passabel heizbar, Holzöfen, Heizung. In der Jahreszeit gehört ein wohliges Frösteln mitunter dazu. Die Betten, die Küche, die Bäder, alles perfekt. Fazit: Wir sind sehr dankbar, dass wir die Villa nutzen konnten, Ausstattung mit Kunstwerken , Kunsthandwerk und Gartenkunst vollkommen aussergewöhnlich, eventuell sogar sehr selten unter solchen Bedingungen mietbar.

J'ai beaucoup hésité à écrire cet évaluation, car j'aimerai garder cette location secrète... L'endroit est superbe, à couper le souffle! Nous avons fait plein de randonnées suivies par une détente dans la piscine. Bon contact avec le propriétaire et la dame qui nous accueillait sur place.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Botanico. The villa is in a fantastic location with gorgeous views over the Atlantic. The gardens are beautiful and very well presented and there are numerous areas to sit outside. Overall, the property is well secluded in very peaceful surroundings, yet only a few minutes from the centre of Puntagorda where there is a good shop which has all the food and drink we needed. The garden has a lovely pond which attracted dragonflies and there are lots of lizards that bask on the rocks in the afternoon sun. We would love to stay here again, and can thoroughly recommend the property!
