Once upon a time...

On the island of Fuerteventura a house recognized as the oldest rural house, which preserves and treasures much of the original architecture of the eighteenth and nineteenth century houses of the time.

Its owners...

Juan Tomás is the owner of this old house, as he says, he is a former professional in the hotel business, he takes care of everything to make sure that everything is perfect for you. He loves to leave you flowers, fruit or local details whenever he has them.

In that house everything is, as it was, everything remains as it was and you will even find his grandmother's words written, when you open the wardrobe in the ground floor bedroom from the early 20th century.

The uniqueness of the space...

Built with stone and mud in the year 1800, Casa Andresito was restored in 2002 and re-equipped in 2006 for a better quality of rural tourist service on the island.

The rooms with their traditional stone walls, lintels and wooden ceilings, keep the perfect temperature and acoustics during the day and night and are decorated and dotted with historical objects that Juan Tomás will be happy to explain to you.

A courtyard paved with Canarian stone, walled and sheltered, with a view through its wooden gate to village life, protects a shady wooden pergola to a large table for sitting, lunch or dinner.

A space that is ideal for achieving a feeling of absolute privacy behind the walls of the house.

The kitchen, the bathroom, the bedrooms... are spacious, and whitewashed in the traditional way as it has always been in the past.
