This English Tudor-style palace was designed in 1888 by architect Selden Wornum of England but was completed by Benito Olasagasti. Surrounded by beautiful grounds overlooking the sea, the palace was built as a vacation home for the Spanish royal family.
Several Spanish Queens favored this location for their summer holiday. The building is distinguished by its octagonal tower and half-timbered details. Notice the coat of arms of the Habsburg dynasty on the facade.
The relatively simple but elegant home has two floors for the private residence and a third floor that was used by the servants. Beautifully manicured gardens with gorgeous ocean views lead down to a seafront promenade along the Bahía de la Concha.
