The Macarena Turns 25
The Macarena officially turns 25 this year, and the original duo behind the song is celebrating in an unusual way.
Los del Rio wrote the Macarena and its Spanish Macarena song lyrics. The English verses most people sing came later from the Bayside Boys. The duo, Antonio Romero Monge and Rafael Ruiz Perdigones, will be creating their very own AirBnB where anyone can book in groups of four. The duo will be inviting a lucky group of four to the very beautiful and still stunning Andalusian villa that inspired the song.
About Andalusia
Andalusia is a large region located in South Spain. With an area of over 33,000 miles the region is large and expansive. It stretches from roughly the center of Spain to the very Southern Tip. While there, consider checking out the amazing medieval castle of Alcázar of Segovia, otherwise known as the “Segovia Fortress” in Seville, the capital city.
Additionally, you may want to see the stunning Córdoba’s Mezquita Mosque-Cathedral in Córdoba. The large 8th century Cathedral was built in 785 CE the capital of the then Muslim empire known as Al-Andalus. That assumes you are the first to book. If not, flights from the U.S. are fairly cheap.
What You Get If You Book
- An all-expense paid two-night stay in a beautiful Andalusian villa.
- A private Macarena dance lesson, taught by the duo themselves.
- An invitation to attend a cookery class where you can learn to cook authentic Spanish cuisine.
How to Book
It is not a giveaway. The duo are listing the villa on Airbnb, and anyone can book it.
