Vivienda Vacacional El Retiro con Piscina Tijarafe, Tijarafe Overview
Vivienda Vacacional El Retiro con Piscina Tijarafe is a family-run country base in Tijarafe, Spain, set along Casa Palo nº7 on the Camino el Jesús a la costa. The layout suits groups who want privacy and quiet, with soundproof rooms helping you settle after a day on the island roads. Air conditioning is a practical touch for warmer afternoons, and the outdoor space is where many guests spend their time, especially around the swimming pool with a shallow end that works well for children. Reviews from previous visitors commonly mention the calm atmosphere and the sense of space, with people appreciating that the property feels removed from the bustle yet still reachable by car.
Inside, the stay is geared toward day-to-day comfort: family rooms make it easier to keep everyone together, and a safety deposit box adds peace of mind for small valuables. For active downtime, guests often reference playing table tennis on-site, while pet bowls are available if you’re travelling with a dog or cat.
If you’re planning excursions, you’re within a reasonable drive of standout north-and-west landmarks such as Roque de los Muchachos (around 43 km), Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos (about 44 km), and the Cueva Bonita area (roughly 41 km). For a more local outing, Tijarafe’s town centre is typically reached in about 7 km, making it easy to pick up supplies and dine out without long detours.
This home is best for families and road-trip travellers who want a quiet base with a pool, easy parking, and the flexibility to explore La Palma’s viewpoints and coastal scenery.

Should You Book Vivienda Vacacional El Retiro con Piscina Tijarafe?
Worth booking if you want a quiet, private family base in Tijarafe with a pool and air conditioning, especially for groups who value soundproof comfort. It’s less ideal if you need to be close to major sights without driving, since the key viewpoints and observatory are tens of kilometers away.
Best For
- Families traveling with children who want a calm country setting and family rooms
- Groups seeking privacy and a quieter stay, with soundproof rooms to help everyone rest
- Travelers who plan day trips to Roque de los Muchachos and the Observatorio, using the property as a peaceful base
- Pet owners who want pet-friendly touches like pet bowls and a self-contained holiday setup
Not Ideal For
- Travelers who rely on walking to restaurants and major attractions, since the provided nearby dining options are limited and most major sights are far by distance
- Light schedulers who need frequent airport transfers without a car, given La Palma Airport is 32 km away and Tenerife North is much farther
- Guests who prefer being in a more central, lively town rather than a country-style base along the Camino el Jesús a la costa
What to Expect
