A Canopy of Stars
Under the Andalusian Night Sky
At Casa Bella, the magic doesn’t end when the sun sets over the red canyons—it’s only just beginning. Located in one of Europe’s premier "Starlight Regions," our sanctuary in the Granada Geopark offers some of the darkest, clearest skies on the continent.
The Ultimate Stargazing Sanctuary Thanks to our unique desert-like microclimate and near-zero light pollution, the Altiplano is a pilgrimage site for astronomers and dreamers alike. Here, the night is a deep, velvet canvas where the stars feel close enough to touch.
Witness the Milky Way Step outside your boutique teepee and look up. The Milky Way stretches across the sky in a breathtaking, luminescent band of light, flowing through the constellation Cygnus. It is a humbling, magnificent sight that connects us to the "Tribe" of stargazers who have looked at these same skies for centuries.
Whether you are a dedicated astronomer or simply a soul seeking a moment of wonder, a night at Casa Bella is an invitation to reconnect with the universe—all from the comfort of your boho-luxe retreat.
Your Guide to a Night Under the Stars
To make the most of our incredible Altiplano skies, follow this simple guide for a truly magical experience:
-
Step 1: Embrace the Dark Turn off your teepee’s interior lights and dim your outdoor lanterns. To see the faintest stars and the Milky Way, your eyes need about 15 to 20 minutes to fully adjust to the darkness.
-
Step 2: Get "Boho-Cozy" Grab the plush throws from your bed and head to your private deck. Even on warm Spanish nights, the desert air turns crisp under the stars—comfort is key!
-
Step 3: Locate the "Swan" Look directly overhead for the brightest part of the Milky Way. You are looking for Cygnus (The Swan)—a large cross-shape of stars that appears to be flying down the "river" of light.
-
Step 4: Catch a Falling Star Because we have so little light pollution, you are almost guaranteed to see a shooting star if you watch for 10 minutes. Make a wish—it’s a Casa Bella tradition!
