ISLAND
OF LA GOMERA
This
Parador, with typical island architecture, invites the guest to enjoy its
paradisiacal setting and to contemplate unsurpassable views of the ocean,
with the island of Tenerife and the Teide in the background.
The
interior is filled with marine references and navigational instruments
which recall the ships of Columbus, which left the island for America.
In the living rooms, the furniture combines Castilian and Isabelline styles,
although a very personal, elegant and distinguished Canary Islands air
is also conserved. The welcoming bedrooms, the swimming pool and the garden,
exuberant and filled with subtropical species, are some of the attractions
which complete the interior.
The
gastronomic display is represented by 'cazuela de pescados gomeros' (Gomera
fish in a clay pot), 'lomos de conejo rellenos' (stuffed rabbit loin) and
'potaje de berros' (watercress stew).
