The location was brilliant too, with everything within easy reach. We hired a car for the week, which made getting around Gran Canaria really easy, and there was plenty to explore nearby.

"We previously stayed at this hotel last year and enjoyed it so much that we decided to return again this year. The hotel offers nice self-catering apartments that are comfortable, well equipped and ideal for a relaxing stay. There is also an onsite SPAR shop, which is very convenient for picking up daily essentials fresh pastries and ice cream. I would happily return again in the future. It’s a nice stroll down the road to the beach or bus stops to take you conveniently to Puerto Rico and Mogan towards the west or Playa de Ingles, Maspalomas, or Las Palmas towards the East. Highly recommended for those looking for a comfortable and relaxing place to stay."
