| Villas to rent in the Canary Islands. Book direct with owners. The Islands and tiny Islets which make up the Canary archipelago are the tips of underwater volcanoes, claimed for the Spanish in the 14th Century. The Canary Islands are now divided into two provinces; the western islands are mountainous, dominated by Tenerife’s Mount Teide whereas the eastern islands like Lanzorote are flat and boast beautiful and uncrowded beaches. |
