HOTEL EMBLEMÁTICO DUQUE DE LA TORRE Cactus 6

Emblematic Hotel Duque de la Torre
The Soul of the 18th Century in the Historic Heart of Arona Village

Discover the essence of authentic Canarian nobility at the Emblematic Hotel Duque de la Torre. Located on the iconic Calle Duque de la Torre, our 18th-century manor house (built in 1700) stands as a living monument to traditional architecture and a haven of history in the charming historic center of Arona.

The Legend and the Legacy

Our location is no coincidence. The hotel’s name pays tribute to Francisco Serrano y Domínguez, the legendary Duke of la Torre, an influential military leader and Regent of Spain.

Local tradition tells that the Duke, captivated by the purity of the air and the serenity of Arona, chose this very house for his summer stays in Tenerife, finding here the peace that political life could not offer him.
