An introduction to Casa La Oliva

How would you describe Casa La Oliva in a nutshell?

Casa La Oliva is located in the heart of Fuerteventura in the authentic Canarian village of La Oliva. This completely renovated, 19th-century property is an architectural gem, consisting of two exclusive suites that stand on the foundation of a former theatre and original “casa”.

What is the story behind Casa La Oliva, what was your inspiration to create it?

Casa La Oliva was once home to a bourgeois family with social and cultural ties to the area. On the back of an economy based on cochineal, orchilla and barilla stone, the family invested significant resources into the development of the village and its character today.

How would you describe the atmosphere and the interior design of Casa La Oliva?

In the suites, minimalism predominates. The clean lines, whitewashed walls and square windows overlooking the courtyard give a feeling of space and lightness while the colourful sofas, rattan chairs and wooden tables add a touch of warmth. 

To you personally, what is so special about Casa La Oliva?

I think it’s the architecture and the art that make Casa La Oliva so special. The property was designed by the Berlin-based architect, Néstor Pérez Batista, who was originally from Lanzarote. One of the goals was to establish a relationship between the patio and the interior, emphasising the sense of openness and transparency while making the outdoor spaces feel like another room. 

Casa La Oliva’s sculpture was envisioned by the Tenerife-based artist, Óscar Latuag, and is an ode to the island's natural heritage. It represents cochineal, orchilla and barilla stone, all of which were fundamental elements in the production of traditional pigments. Through the dynamic interaction with sunlight throughout the day, the work creates an ever-changing play of intricate shadows on the walls.

The location of Casa La Oliva

The villa is located in the historic town of La Oliva in northern Fuerteventura, which is the second-largest island of the Canary Islands. It’s around 15 minutes’ drive from the best beaches in the north of the island. Puerto del Rosario (the main ferry port) is around 20 minutes’ drive from the property while Fuerteventura Airport is 30 minutes away. 

There are some very good restaurants within a 15-minute walk of the property. Five minutes away is a little supermarket and there’s another one 15 minutes away. 

What I love most about the northern part of Fuerteventura is that it is so wild. The amazingly scenic roads take in desert landscapes and dunes while offering breathtaking views across the ocean. In this part of the island, you can park your car just a few steps from the beach, far from large crowds.

When is the best time to visit Fuerteventura?

Fuerteventura is a year-round destination, with something to offer visitors each season.
