King Hussein of Jordan had La Mareta built in the late 1970s based on a design by the Canarian artist César Manrique and the architect Fernando Higueras. In 1989, the Jordanian king donated the residence to King Juan Carlos I, who transferred La Mareta to the state as a "National Treasure". The property has its own helicopter landing pad and still serves as accommodation for the Spanish governor, but also for foreign state guests.
