Completed in 1974, it is located at the end of Maritime Avenue of Arrecife by the sea and Playa de El Reducto.[3] The building functions as a 5-star hotel and its height also makes it the tallest building in the Canary Islands outside of Tenerife and Gran Canaria.

In November of 1994, the building suffered a fire which caused no fatalities because it was empty.[4] The fire originated at 6 pm on the ground floor of the building and quickly spread to the upper floors. Although the structure of the building was not damaged, some time later the façade was restored and modernized with a steel and glass roof.
