The Village Playa Paraiso

Playa Paraiso is a holiday resort right before the well-known coastal village of Callao Salvaje at the coastal road towards Los Gigantes. Although Playa Paraiso is a tourists hot spot, many locals have settled there in the meantime, too. Also for long-term visitors the place has to offer quite a lot. Here, you will find many little shops, bars, restaurants and a Spa centre. Right next to Playa Paraiso new 2-level residences have been built. That part of the town is a lot more beautiful than the older parts of town and almost reaches up to La Caleta.
