La casita de Lala, Arico Viejo Overview
La casita de Lala is a holiday home in Arico Viejo, Spain, suited to travelers who want space, privacy, and a calmer pace away from the busiest resorts. On Calle la Degollada, the layout is built around everyday comfort: two bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen for real home-style meals, and a terrace where you can linger outdoors. Guests often mention the practical feel of the place, especially when traveling with children or staying for several days, because having a kitchen and room to spread out reduces the need to eat out for every meal. The home also works well for pet owners; pets are allowed, and there are pet bowls and a pet basket to make arrivals easier. For warmer days, air conditioning helps keep evenings comfortable, and non-smoking rooms support a cleaner indoor atmosphere.
Reviewers commonly highlight the outdoor living options, including the terrace and outdoor furniture for dining outside, along with the quieter moments around the outdoor fireplace. Families appreciate the straightforward setup for routines, while couples like the sense of separation between indoor and outdoor spaces. If you’re planning day trips, you can base yourself here for coastal time in the El Médano area (around 33 km) or for beach days at Playa de la Tejita (about 38 km). For a bigger outing, Teide National Park is reachable by car (roughly 55 km), making it a good base for hikers and viewpoint chasers. Many guests also value the private check-in/check-out process and the option for offsite parking with discounted rates, which helps when you’re coming and going frequently.
