Villa Maraja, Tijarafe

Villa Maraja is a peaceful base in Tijarafe, Spain, set at Aguatavar, 1 where the island’s scenery does most of the talking. Guests describe the stay as calm and comfortable, with a small group feel that suits people who want privacy rather than busy hotel corridors. The heated pool and the air conditioning help smooth out day-to-day comfort, while the terrace and BBQ facilities are a practical touch for evenings when you want to eat at home.

The villa’s location works especially well for families and road-trip travelers: you can reach the coast at Playa de Tijarafe in about 3 km, then swap beach time for inland scenery. For hiking and viewpoints, Caldera de Taburiente National Park is roughly 10 km away, and Roque de los Muchachos sits around 17 km from the property for high-altitude panoramas. If you like planning your days around short drives, the area around Tijarafe also makes it easy to build a route without backtracking.

Reviewers who have stayed here note the non-smoking environment and the convenience of free wired internet for checking maps or booking tickets. Free parking is another plus for drivers, and the safety deposit box adds reassurance for passports and small valuables. Check-in runs from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM and check-out is at 10:00 AM, so it’s best to plan arrival and departures around those times.
