It is one of the most desired hotels of the moment due to its spectacular location and uniqueness.

On a ledge on the shores of the Atlantic, in a paradisiacal area on the edge of the Galician Coast of Death, the

Hotel Faro de Lariño

is the ideal place to disconnect and live a holiday in nature, without crowds or stress and in tune with the sea .

Located in the coastal municipality of Carnota, southwest of La Coruña, the unique building, also known as the Punta Ínsua Lighthouse, was built between 1913 and 1921 in this dangerous area of ​​the Galician coast. From its 14 m high tower, crowned with a metal weather vane, which shows the year of its inauguration (1920), even today a white and red light is emitted that reaches a distance of 20 miles and serves as a guide to ships. Attached to the tower, the spacious building, built in stone, the work of the engineer Salvador López Miño, and painted white, was the

residence of the lighthouse keeper and his family until the late 1980s

.

Today, the huge estancia is a minimalist hotel in which all its common spaces recreate the historic lighthouse and the life of the lighthouse keeper, and refer to the sea in general, thanks to the presence of a multitude of details and ornaments. Its

nine different rooms

, each one with a theme that symbolizes the states of the sea (With mist, Dawn, Storm, Choppy Sea ...), have a careful decoration and have spectacular views of the Atlantic and, especially, of the incredible sunsets, which give way to its starry nights (warning for lovers of astronomy and the Perseid rain in August). Guests will also find a pillow menu and a hydromassage bath, among other services, in their room (from 250 euros).

The hotel includes the

Taberna el Ariete

, a gastronomic space that takes the name of the ship that was wrecked in 1966 on the Lariño coast, where you can taste a selection of the flavors of this part of the Costa de la Muerte accompanied by incredible panoramic views. from the beach and the Atlantic.

The environment

The charms of the Lariño Lighthouse extend beyond its facilities. Located in a privileged natural environment, the excursions are presented as obligatory plans for the most restless. The municipality of Carnota is located between the spectacular town of Muros and the mystical Fisterra. About 20 km away is

Mount Pindo

, a beautiful place formed by granite rocks that is accessed through marked trails. Those who make it to the top will find one of the best views of the coast. Nearby is also the well-known

Ézaro waterfall

, one of the few rivers in Europe that flow into the sea in the form of a waterfall. Next to it is

the beach of Carnota

.

Shaped like a half moon, it is a seven-kilometer-long sandy area (the longest in Galicia), full of dunes and marshes and with an interior lagoon of great environmental importance and of ornotological interest, since it is home to plant and animal communities. and it serves as a refuge for a multitude of species in their migratory movements.

Those who prefer a quieter plan (if time permits), on the other side of the Lariño Lighthouse is the paradisiac (and huge)

Lariño beach

, with fine white sand, ideal for water sports and to enjoy a day of tranquility , for being almost deserted.
