We arrived at Lajares on the 28th of June 2014. Philippe picked us up in front of the “farmacia” in Lajares, a nice small village in the north of Fuerteventura. When we arrived at the house we were astonished by the beauty of the garden, the swimming pool and the house itself. It has every thing, with a very calming atmosphere, beautiful paintings of Philippe himself... and the beautiful cat “Saphire” completes the picture.
It’s a house with a soul in the middle of an oasis of palmtrees.
The owner Philippe is a very nice person, who speaks French, English and German.
As you know Fuerteventura is a volcanic island, so there’s not a lot of green. But climbing the volcano’s, walking in the dunes at Grandes Playas (Corralejo) and swimming in the Ocean makes up 100% for the lack of green.
In El Cotillo, we were surprised by the view and the excellent food in Restaurant “La Vaca Azul”! It’s worth to visit, yum, yum
In short ... we surely will come back to Casa Rockstones, maybe in 4 years when there’s another World Championship Football, which we followed this year on the big screens in Bar Return (excellent food at a small price, nice ambiance), only a 15 minutes walk from Casa Rockstones.
Hasta luego!
