This coliving space was absolutely fantastic and it's by far the best one I've visited in Tenerife so far. I worked and lived here for a total of 2 weeks. The two owners (+ 1 volunteer) are amazing, lovely, proactively helpful, empathetic and regularly organise indoor and outdoor after-hours activities during the week and at weekends that you can optionally join: Brunch, dinners, yoga and meditation sessions, bar and concert outings, beach visits, hikes, sport activities and more if you want. And table tennis. Just sayin. The villa is quietly situated on a mountain. A car or a scooter is recommended. From the two large terraces (incl. pool and sunbeds) you have a phenomenal view over the distant villages and towns, the ocean, the Teide and of course the sunset. At night you can see the stars. It is dead quiet, there is no road traffic. There are 6 rooms in total, a large indoor social area with couch and cinema screen, games, reading corner, a music corner with instruments and a large dining area. The kitchen is very well equipped and there is also the possibility to do your laundry. You can also retreat outside your room. The indoor areas are very large and flooded with light. This also applies to the spacious work area with 8 workstations. Here you can also make video calls outside your room because it is so spacious. The Wi-Fi was stable and fast. There are ergonomic chairs (in case you don't want to work by the pool in bad weather). Don‘t forget your sun screen. Because it is such a large villa with a small number of rooms, there is privacy and no crowding. As a result, the relationship between the guests quickly becomes friendly with awesome vibes. I particularly liked that. I felt so comfortable here and was grateful that I could spend my time here so well. The owners have understood the coliving concept and offer something very special here. Unpretentious, lively, diverse and considerate. I can recommend Taoro without any reservations and would like to thank them from the bottom of my heart for a great experience. I will be back again.
