Apartments | Rentals

Los Balos, El Médano is developed in an enclosed landscaped plot with direct access to the wooden promenade and is adjacent to the nearby natural park, Montaña Roja. The design is extremely modern, built in concrete, natural stone and steel. The architect, Miguel Blázquez and Los Balos were selected finalists to The Architecture Award Tenerife 2008 and the project is developed in various publications on “Arquitectura Blanca”.

Our 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments are built on a terraced ground. Enormous balconies facing the sea offer great panoramic views of the unique surroundings and communicate to the interior through large windows.

Bookings and reservations are directly managed through the property. Don´t be shy, send us an email to losbaloselmedano@gmail or hit the button down below. Catch us if you can!

Los Balos | El Medano

El Medano is a small coastal village in southern Tenerife, township of Granadilla de Abona. Encased between two bays, its natural beach of fine sand is the biggest on the island. It is also 10km from a regional road that communicates the south with the north, crossing the volcano.

We wish, through this description, to support a political and environmental initiative, “Granadilla Litoral”, and all of those who helped develop the project: Tomás Cruz Simó, Juanmi Alemany, and of course, Antonio Cabrera and Pedro Díaz.

‘We invite you to take on this journey. An incursion into this littoral to discover its natural and ecological value. To experience and appreciate its environment. Feel and embrace the energy that flows and transmits singularity in El Medano.’

‘The journey begins with the following dynamic: east-borne, of a sunrise with wind, waves and currents. Leeward and seaward sculpt the imprint, the form and the silhouette. The sand grain originates and travels in the air, “en volandas”, a continuous come-and-go (…)’

‘The protected natural areas, the illuminated depths, the algae colouring, the whitened “blanquizal” and the Lesser Neptune Grass nurseries considered the island’s most important sea prairies. The geological singularities: the sandstone, the coastal bench and shelf, caves and sedimentary formations known as “burreras” (…)’

Los Balos is immersed in this magnificent and magical littoral of El Medano that spans throughout more than 20kms of the island’s coast. From the mouth of El Rio to the ravine-gorge of La Orchila. A small arid paradise, which in the winter months of January, February and March, turns into a rich oasis. A green low forest of “tabaibas”, “aulagas” and wild daisies… An endless world of possibilities for nature, ocean and adventure sport lovers.

It would be impossible not to cite El Teide and invite the traveller to get lost in its valleys and silent mountain tops Its dark nights lit only by an impressive starry sky. A unique astronomic observatory so damn close that you wouldn’t believe it.

Los Balos

The Beach House was first built in 1935, it’s been a family summer house since then, although today it has evolved into a small residential.
The property is located at the end of El Medano ´s main bay and literally walks out onto the beach.
Things have changed, we have gone modern and we’re many more but we try to keep it cool and windy.
We are quite a few and varied: families, toddlers, teenagers, barefooters, mothers, windsurfers, runners, fathers, lovers, kiters, climbers, friends, babies, us, softsteppers and maybe you…
