The gardens and pool The main garden patio, with its delightful covered area and many plants and flowers, is just the beginning of the very special gardens at Finca Los Arcos. The pool sits centrally, with an unusual shape and an incorporated jacuzzi at one end, as well as a viewpoint terrace just above the pool. To the side and rear of the pool are two separate walled garden areas, meaning that guests and friends can choose individual areas to enjoy. Each has its own character, with quality sunbeds and other outdoor garden furniture. Guests enjoy the total peace, with just the sound of the birds or the bubbling of the water in the pool and these are excellent places to watch both the sunrise and the sunset.

A short path, close to the guest apartment, leads to a hillside garden, with a path and terraces cut into the land and planted with a variety of beautiful plants. There is also a vegetable garden, should the owners wish to grow their own vegetables.
