Its location in a natural setting, in the municipality of Antigua, is ideal for enjoying the Nature of Fuerteventura with its volcanoes, in an open space, sunny during daytime, inviting you to enjoy an unforgettable vacation. The municipality of Antigua is located in the center-east part of the Island, with a population of about 8.000 inhabitants.
The Caleta de Fuste, in the town of Antigua, is one of the most important tourist spot of the Island.
Among its assets, on the outskirts of the town, is the Protected Landscape of Malpaís Grande, where the oldest Aboriginal remains known in the Canary Islands can be found, where a former town was built on the slopes of the volcano.
In addition, this municipality has natural monuments, the Salinas del Carmen, more than two centuries old, and the Castle of Caleta de Fuste.

Regarding the cultural monuments in Fuerteventura, we must mention two very important ones, both from a tourism point of view and from a cultural point of view, besides the Caleta de Fuste, symbol of this resort: the Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Antigua (the Church Our Lady of Antigua) and the Windmill Cultural Tourist Center of Antigua named Molino de Antigua.
Places of interest:
It is important to mention that La Apañada takes place here, an apañada is a typical pastoral practice of Fuerteventura, where herds of goats are usually let loose in the mountains, thus once a year or more, the goats are grouped in a special farmyard called Gambuesa to identify the newborns with their mothers. The gathering of the cattle is also a meeting place for all people who come to see and help with managing the goats, while celebrating the event in a big party.
As the island is so wide, the holiday cottage is ideally located to enjoy the paradise beaches, the caldera of los Arrabales, the aborigen town of la Atalayita, the Cueva valley, and the sailor’s town of Jacomar, among others.
