Casa Tauro Spain

For a truly magical holiday to remember, Casa Tauro has got it all. A traditional four-bedroom finca located in Tauro, just minutes from beaches, restaurants, bars and shops, this stylish and modern property offers guests an idyllic and peaceful retreat a stone’s throw away from the island’s bustling tourist scene.
It’s going to be love at first sight when you clap your eyes on Casa Tauro, which is visually stunning both inside and out, from the white-washed exterior walls and wooden shutters to the bright and fresh interior bursting with luxurious high-end features. The villa’s decor is neutral and light throughout, with white walls and accents of grey and cream. The living area is both spacious yet cosy, with sumptuous grey sofas and armchairs, stylish wooden furnishings and a large flat screen TV that has access to streaming services such as Netflix for those moments when you just want to unwind.
The well-equipped kitchen is equally spacious, with plenty of room to prepare meals for the whole family, and comes complete with all of the appliances and utensils you’ll need to cater to you and your guests during your stay, including a fridge-freezer, oven, toaster, coffee machine, and a dishwasher – so there’ll be no arguments over who has to wash up after dinner!
Casa Tauro is ideal for larger families or friendship groups with three double bedrooms and an ample-sized twin – perfect for the kids. Each bedroom is decorated in a neutral colour palette and features plenty of wardrobe space. There are three modern and stylish bathrooms with shower facilities – one of which is accessible from the outside; extra convenient if you are all spending a day in the garden and want to avoid traipsing through the whole villa.
The villa’s grounds are extensive and beautiful, and you’re sure to spend the majority of your time enjoying dining and relaxing in the wide open spaces. There are a covered and fully furnished outside dining terrace and barbecue, which is perfect for alfresco dining or pre-dinner drinks, and loungers for sunning yourself by the pool or reclining with a good book. Casa Tauro’s pool is large at 10 m x 4.5 m and is accessible by ladder rather than Roman steps, which could make it a bit more challenging for younger guests. Having said that, well-supervised children will enjoy splashing about in the cool water and swimming to their hearts’ content, while parents can enjoy the peace of mind that the area is totally secluded and private.Casa Tauro is ideally located for anyone looking to enjoy a sunny beach holiday, with three of the most popular in the area; Playa del Cura, Playa de Tauro, and Playa de Amadores, just a few minutes drive away from the villa.
Meaning, ‘The Lovers Beach’, nearby Playa de Amadores, looks like a tropical paradise straight out of a movie, with its crescent-shaped shoreline, white sands, palm trees and turquoise waters. Set in a cove and featuring coral sand that never gets too hot, the bay is calm and well-protected from the rougher waves of the open sea. This makes Amadores beach an excellent choice for those who want to swim and paddle, although parents should be aware that as this beach is man-made shallow areas that are safe to walk on are limited.
The area is popular for scuba diving and snorkelling, and it’s no wonder as the clear waters are full of breathtaking beauty. However, we highly recommend heading to the east end of the beach to rent pedalos if you prefer to stay above the water! After a day on the beach, head along the promenade for a leisurely walk and enjoy the stunning views of the cliffs and shimmering blue waters. A morning stroll along the boardwalk will see people jogging or engaging in yoga and other sports, while an evening walk as the sun sets offers a more romantic and laid-back atmosphere.  
Playa del Cura is often referred to as one of Gran Canaria’s more undiscovered gems and is notably a lot less crowded than many of the other beaches in the region. This is largely down to its dark, volcanic sands and its lack of a beachfront bar, but this pretty beach more than makes up for it with its convenient location within walking distance of cafes, restaurants, souvenir shops and supermarkets.
You’ll be pleased to know that there is no shortage of incredible restaurants in the region, and whichever type of cuisine you’re craving, you’re almost guaranteed to find it! From traditional Spanish dishes and seafood to European delicacies, burgers, steaks, pizza and vegan and vegetarian options, you’re sure to discover something to suit every palate. Webers restaurant, nestled right on the beach, is the place to go for tapas, ribs and burgers, and for pizza lovers, VIP Pizza always becomes a firm favourite. We recommend making a reservation, as this popular restaurant gets booked up quite quickly, but they do offer a take-out service if you fancy heading back to the villa and enjoying a bite under the stars.   At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
