This is the form to download to join ALOTCA, the “illegal letting” lobbying asociación. Please print off, fill in, scan and email back to me at help@janetanscombe.com –
- Please note this is not the petition, which will be available as a website in due course.
- Please also note that this form has been designed by the lawyers to comply with the provisions of asociación laws: all the boxes need to be completed. The direccion/domicile box needs your address – if you have a Tenerife property then it needs to be that, otherwise your British address will do.

Favourite venues:
Auditorio Infanta Leonor for international-level concerts and cultural programmes of all descriptions in the centre of Los Cristianos.
Loro Parque a superb day out while contributing to an environmental foundation that does perhaps more good than any other in Tenerife.
Tenerife Museums a range of museums to cater for all cultural tastes, whether science, anthropological, historical, human. Click on the British flag for a full translation of each of the museums, which are listed by abbreviations across the header.
Rutas del Vino a choice of days and half days out to various grape regions to sample local wines as well as landscapes and cultures.
Pirámides de Güímar an “ethnographic park” with an eye to the history, nature and geography of Tenerife. It has a lovely atmosphere, different sections, gardens, a museum, as well as those “pyramids”.
Teide astounding geography, incredible views. The link is to the Teleférico website, with information about the national park, the cable car, getting a permit to go to the very top, the Refugio Altavista where one can stay overnight. Whether it’s a drive into the crater or a climb to the summit, Mt Teide is an absolutely essential visit.
