Thomas Handrick was found guilty of killing his victims with a rock and was given the maximum penalty.
The Court of Santa Cruz de Tenerife sentenced him to "permanent and revisable imprisonment" on Thursday.
The bodies of a 39-year-old German woman and her 10-year-old son were found dead in a cave near Adeje on the Spanish Canary Island in April 2019.
Authorities were alerted when another of the couple's children - a seven-year-old boy - fled the mountainous area and raised the alarm.
Handrick was also convicted of trying to kill his other son, who had survived after "walking for a long time in a remote and uninhabited area".
The killings sent shockwaves across Spain and were condemned by prime minister Pedro Sanchez.
