Right on the beachfront at La Canteras, this home has a fabulous spot. Take in the fantastic Atlantic and La Canteras Beach views from this home’s sunny and dazzling whitewashed terrace. You can even spot Mount Teide in Tenerife in the distance. We love this outdoor space, it's ideal for an alfresco breakfast (whizz up a drink in the juicer to accompany some churros). Later, do some sunbathing on the sun loungers. Inside, there are more of those fabulous vistas through the large sliding doors.

In the afternoon, perhaps head to La Canteras  Beach, under a minute stroll away. It’s one of the best urban beaches in the world, and there are plenty of cafes and restaurants to sample in the vicinity too. Or, for a bit of culture, Las Palmas Cathedral is a ten-minute ride away. It’s a couple of minutes more to Casa-Museo de Colón, which documents Columbus’ voyages.

Ideal for couples, this Gran Canaria apartment puts you in the heart of Las Palmas. The popular Las Canteras beach is just a few minutes away by car, and it’s also close to the old town and the shops. If you fancy renting a bike, you can easily whizz around to explore. The apartment is bright and bohemian, with a delightful terrace – where we’d be spending most of our time. There’s even an outdoor shower for cooling off, and a lovely home office.

A sophisticated studio in the heart of Las Palmas, this flat may be pocket-sized, but it's packed with style. Modern artwork, crisp cream walls, glossy wood floors – you definitely won't find any seaside kitsch here.

Start the day with a cup of coffee and a Spanish omelette prepared in the fully-equipped kitchen. If you need to attend to a few pesky work emails, pull up a chair and get down to business at the desk. Come evening, sprawl out on the white leather sofa with a glass of sangria and rest your feet after a day in the sunshine. 

And speaking of the weather, you won't find a sweeter spot to bask in the Gran Canaria rays than on Las Canteras Beach. And, even better, it's mere moments from your doorstep – about a minute's walk, in fact. The go-to place for surfing, sunbathing, swimming and snorkelling, chances are, you'll spend every moment with your toes in the sand. There's also an excellent selection of cocktail bars, beachfront restaurants and ice cream parlours nearby for those nights when you don't fancy cooking. What can be dreamier than that?

Outdoor Pool

Perched high above the shores of Las Palmas' famous Las Canteras Beach, this apartment's terrace is a seaside show-stopper. Whether you're lolling about on the sun loungers with a cocktail and a good book, sharing alfresco tapas around the outdoor table or chilling out in the stylish living area with the windows wide open, the rolling tides and clear blue skies paint a postcard-worthy backdrop. 

It's downright dreamy – you can hear the waves crashing below you and feel the salt kiss your skin. And it's no surprise that the sunsets are unmissable. Better still, the communal swimming pool provides a refreshing place to relax when you don't fancy a dip in the sea – and it's got stunning panoramas to match.

When you're ready to venture out, the golden sands are a mere one-minute stroll away – spend your days lounging in the sand and splashing in the sea. Grab dinner and drinks at one of the waterfront restaurants or pick up some local produce and rustle up something tasty back at home. For a change of scenery (though who would want to leave that view behind?), Catedral de Santa Ana de Canarias in the historic district is a sixteen-minute taxi ride away.

Sapphire Horizon

Access to Beach

This eco-friendly studio apartment is situated just moments away from the Las Canteras beach, making it a good base for a couple or a solo traveller. Thanks to the central location, a car is not essential here, as you’ll have plenty of shopping and dining options to choose from within walking distance. Public transport options are also excellent if you want to explore further afield. The pad may be compact in size but there’s enough space here for two guests to be comfortable, and with good internet speed, you can also catch up on work during your stay – although you'll have to set-up shop around the dining table since there isn't a desk.

Sailing for Sights

In the centre of Las Palmas, this sleek studio apartment puts trendy restaurants, pavement cafes, buzzing bars and endless shops on your doorstep. It’s a city packed with things to do, from exploring the 15th-century cathedral to spotting sharks at the aquarium and wandering the botanic gardens. What's more, Las Canteras Beach with its impossibly blue water and long sweep of sand is just a five-minute stroll away.

Retreating back to your apartment is a delight as sunlight streams in through the big corner windows – just what you want in the land of sunshine. The palette of turquoise and white is refreshing and bright, embracing the holiday vibe. Although it’s a studio, there’s plenty of space with a sofa to relax and a full kitchen for meals at home. That’s if you’re not too busy exploring the myriad eateries on your doorstep.  

Tropical Fish

Paid Parking On Street

Walk just metres from your apartment complex and you'll be on one of the most beautiful beaches in Gran Canaria. For those of you who love a beach holiday, this is the perfect place.

Waking up to the sprawling, golden sands of Las Canteras Beach is the perfect way to start your day. Sit out on the balcony with a coffee and a pastry, feeling the sea breeze kiss your skin and the salty air greet your nose. 

Wander down from the balcony and you'll find a neutral colour palette, brightened by colourful furniture and artwork. Flooded with natural light, it's a pleasant spot to share tapas, a bottle of wine or just to chill on the sofas with a film.

When the sea air tempts you outside, visit the plethora of vibrant bars and restaurants lining the shoreline. Head inland and you'll find a few lush, green parks and there's a top-class golf course just a few minutes away in the car.

The Changing Beach

Courtyard

Pets Allowed

Pets

You'll find this stylish flat just seven minutes on foot from the famous Las Canteras Beach. Whether you fancy sunbathing all day, swimming in the pristine waters or trying your hand at surfing and snorkelling, it's perfectly positioned for a day by the seaside. 

After a dip in the ocean, stroll along the waterfront promenade packed full of boutique shops and delicious eateries and grab an ice cream or papas arrugadas. If you're in the mood to cook, swing by Mercado del Puerto (a six-minute stroll away) and pick up some fresh parrotfish, local cheese and a bottle of vino. 

Head back to your Las Palmas pad and rustle up a dinner to remember in the sleek kitchen. As home chefs get down to business, others can wind down with a glass of wine or a refreshing lemonade in the internal courtyard and plan the next's days adventures. When it's time to tuck in, gather around the white dining table for tasty tapas, sweet sangria and good conversation. We love how the breezy, open-plan layout encourages socialising, while the calm atmosphere and unfussy design sets you up perfectly for a laid-back holiday in the sun.

Let the Tide Roll

Looking for a smart bolthole in the heart of the capital that’s just footsteps from the beach? This fresh and contemporary apartment ticks the right boxes. Despite its studio set-up, the kitchen is well equipped to rustle up meals. Although, with the seafront tavernas close by for tapas in the evening sunshine, we suspect you might be eating out a lot. And while there’s no outdoor space to speak of, we don’t think you’ll mind with the famous Las Canteras Beach just 20 metres from your door.

Casa Maravillosa

Admire the incredible views of La Canteras Beach from this home in Las Palmas. We love the enclosed balcony with its sea vistas. Inside, large windows allow light to flood in – take a seat on the comfy grey sofa and plan your day. Then, whip up an orange juice with the juicer and prepare a tortilla de patatas for breakfast before heading out to the beach.

Considered one of the best urban beaches in the world, the golden sands of La Canteras are under a two-minute stroll. Rent some sun loungers and spend the day here – there are plenty of cafes and restaurants to sample in the vicinity too. Or, for a bit of culture, Las Palmas Cathedral is a ten-minute ride away.

Sandy Shores Hideaway

Enjoy ice cream by the palm trees, as this ideally located apartment is only 300 metres away from the sandy shores of  Las Canteras Beach. 

With such a convenient location for discovering Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the apartment space invites guests to chill out between days out on the beach, afternoons spent dotting in and out of the local boutiques and evenings of dining by the sea. 

Inside, a modern aesthetic creates a comfortable and practical retreat, and we think the small street-side balcony is a lovely little finishing touch too. Soak up beautiful views of the quay, where you may see the cruise pass by as they come in to dock in the distance. So what are you waiting for? This break by the sea is ready for your arrival with open arms. 


Ice Cream by the Palm Trees

Bathtub

Access to Gym / Spa

Accessible Parking

A convenient home directly in front of the beach, this apartment makes for a great base in Gran Canaria. It’s a stylish apartment with everything you might need for a beach break. In the morning, sip coffee at the breakfast bar or take a seat on the cosy balcony. There’s a dining table too, so family breakfasts can be enjoyed before you head out for the day. 

Playa de Las Canteras is a two-minute walk from the apartment. Pack up your towels and bucket and spade, and settle onto the beach. Whether you’re a keen sea swimmer or prefer to paddle in the shallows, you’re sure to revel in being so close to the water.

The apartment is perfectly located among a wealth of restaurants and bars. After a day in the sunshine, is there a better feeling than sitting alfresco and taking that first sip of something chilled? Tuck into tapas, then return to the apartment for a comfortable night's sleep.

Sea Breeze Hideaway

Set just a few steps from the capital’s stunning Las Canteras Beach, the location of this modern studio apartment is bang on. When thoughts turn to food, there are heaps of tapas bars and restaurants in the buzzy streets below. Or rustle something up back at the apartment – despite its studio set-up, the kitchen is well-equipped for cosy evening meals. The lack of outdoor space might not appeal to some, but we can let that slide with the beach and seafront bars so close to serenade the evening sun. 

Waterfront Walkin' Shoes

This is one of those apartments that just makes you alive. Vivid colours brighten the open-plan living space, which perfectly marries a cosy sofa area with beach bar vibes at the kitchen stools. It's a decor that makes you appreciate that you're really on holiday. 

The bright blue stools of the kitchen are the ideal spot to eat breakfast in the morning or share a bottle of wine in the evening. For snug nights in, curl up on the sofa with a book or relax with a film in the background. 

Whilst the living space is a chill haven to spend your days, you didn't come to Las Palmas to stay inside. If you're visiting during the warmer months, you're just an eight-minute walk to the gorgeous Las Canteras Beach. On your way there, you'll pass Parque de Santa Catalina – the home of live performances, cultural activities and festivals.

If that's not your vibe, visit the cute restaurants and bars along the harbour, watching the ships pass through. For the golfing fanatics, the lush greens of Las Palmeras Golf are just a five-minute drive away.

The Carnival

Safe

This charming beachside accommodation is the perfect place to relax and enjoy your holiday. Located just steps from the sandy shores, this cozy retreat offers the perfect blend of coastal living and modern convenience. The open layout seamlessly connects the living room with a fully equipped kitchen, creating a welcoming environment to relax and socialize. The highlight of this beach paradise is undoubtedly the private balcony, where you can sip your morning coffee or relax with a glass of wine while taking in the stunning views of the ocean. Feel the gentle sea breeze on your face as you take in the sights and sounds of the coastal surroundings.

Seaside Sunset

Morning strolls along Las Canteras Beach become part of the new routine at this smart studio apartment perched just 20 metres from the capital’s sandy shores. Part of a newly built apartment complex, this contemporary home has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the studio space. Floor-to-ceiling windows reveal a glimpse of the sea, and the bedroom area is cleverly zoned to give a little separation. The only thing this place doesn’t offer is outdoor space. But with the beach, seafront bars, and restaurants so close, don’t let that be the deal breaker. 

The Tides of Time

Cafetiere

There's something utterly relaxing about this seventh-floor flat, perched right next to La Puntilla. Between the seaside-inspired design, luminous living space and floor-to-ceiling windows boasting panoramas of the rolling waves, you'll have that beachy keen feeling from the moment you walk through the door. And trust us, with the Atlantic Ocean sparkling in the distance, you'll want to spend all day basking in that view.

Perfect for a couple, this pad has plenty of places to kick back and get comfortable. Plop down in the yellow chair with a good book and a refreshing drink, watching the ebb and flow of the tide. Stretch out on the sun-loungers or curl up on the plush sofa for an afternoon siesta before heading out for a night on the town – with a bevvy of bars and restaurants nearby, we think you'll need a mid-day pick-me-up. 

As far as locations go, you can't ask for better. Las Palmas' sweeping Playa las Canteras is mere steps from your flat, so take advantage and while away your days snorkelling, surfing and swimming in the water. Shops, markets and eateries are also close at hand – as are options for hiking (Isleta Nature Reserve is a six-minute drive) and sightseeing (Plaza Santa Ana is thirteen minutes by car).

Sunburst Sepia

This comfortable, functional apartment is nestled between two of Gran Canaria's beautiful black sand beaches in the eastern region of Telde. The amenities may be more basic than refined, but everything is all in order, with the living area making room for a dining table and flowing into a well-equipped kitchen. The sleeping areas are cosy and agreeable, as is the bathroom, while the private balcony is a pleasant addition catching plenty of sun. You'll be moments from the neighbourhood's popular bars and restaurants, while you'll also have the choice of Melenara to the north and Salineta to the south for a relaxing and unique day at the beach.

The Green Mirror

This practical studio apartment boasts sea views and is just steps from the capital's stunning Las Canteras Beach. The crisp, contemporary interiors of the home and building would perfectly suit guests visiting the city for work or couples looking for a fuss-free stay. Don't let its studio apartment set-up put you off – the space is well-equipped with a modern kitchen and obligatory coffee pod machine for morning brews. The only downside for some would be the lack of outdoor space, but we can forgive that when the sandy shores are so close.

With the Sea on My Heart

Single-Level Home

This cute studio apartment, just a ten-minute walk away from Las Canteras Beach, offers the perfect base for lapping up the sandy shores, bars, restaurants and shops of Las Palmas. 

Located on the second floor, the space reveals stylish designs and modern home comforts throughout. We particularly love the floral wallpapers decorating the space, while further pops of blue and green reflect the natural environment and make relaxing here oh so easy. 

With little need to rent a car here, you'll be within easy walking distance from La Luz park, supermarkets and a wealth of wining and dining opportunities. Head to Las Canteras for an afternoon of sunbathing, swimming or paddleboarding, before catching the sunset with a cocktail at your beach bar of choice. 

Floral Breeze

This stylish studio apartment's central location more than makes up for the lack of space. You're just a thirteen-minute walk from Las Canteras, Las Palmas' famous urban beach dotted with colourful wooden boats and lively waterfront eateries. It's an excellent spot for snorkelling, sunbathing and swimming in the Atlantic Ocean – we bet you'll spend every afternoon stretched out on the sand, watching the waves. If you fancy a bit of sightseeing, take a three-minute stroll over to Castillo de la Luz – a 16th-century fortress that now exhibits artwork – followed by a meal at one of the fantastic restaurants on your doorstep.

When you've had your fill of exploring, we think this light-filled flat is the perfect space to relax. Don't let the size fool you – it has everything you'll need and plenty of stylish features to boot. There's a modern kitchen with plenty of room to rustle up Spanish omelettes for breakfast and tapas for dinner, a lavish walk-in shower with a rainfall feature and a cosy turquoise sofa where you can kick off your shoes and unwind with a glass of Spanish vino. We also like the layout –wood panelling around the bed cleverly separates the living space from the bedroom, so although it's all-in-one, there are defined spaces to eat, chill out and sleep. 

Tides Made of Turquoise

With the capital’s sandy shores just 20 metres from your door, there are no prizes for guessing this smart studio apartment’s biggest draw. Perfect for business travellers or couples looking for a fuss-free central base, you can take your pick from the various dining options and seafront bars dotted about the neighbourhood. Back home, while this newbuild apartment may be a studio, it offers all the creature comforts, including a well-equipped kitchen with a coffee pod machine for those obligatory morning brews. If we were being picky, it’s a shame not to have any outdoor space to call your own. But with the sandy beach just a flip-flop away, we’ll forgive that. 

Casa Abierta

Paid Parking On Premises

Just a two-minute stroll from the sprawling Las Canteras Beach, this sleek flat promises plenty of fun in the sun. Wake up, grab your towel and dip your toes in the Atlantic Ocean in just a few moments. Afternoons call for lounging in the sand, snorkelling in the crystal-clear waters and surfing the waves. When you grow peckish after a long swim, head to one of the beachfront restaurants in this neighbourhood – whether you fancy burgers or tapas, there's something within walking distance to whet everyone's appetite.

Come nightfall, make your way back to this stylish flat and unwind with a digestif on the soft blue sofa. It's bright, breezy and serene, with an open-plan living space just perfect for coming together. If you prefer your own cooking, the glossy white kitchen should have everything you need to rustle up something tasty, while the dining table can also double as a workspace if needed. We think the bedroom is equal parts comfortable and chic – an ideal respite after the hustle and bustle outside your door. 

Sun & Surf

Enjoy chilled-out mornings with a coffee on the balcony and laid-back evenings looking over the rooftops with something a little stronger – as from this central Las Palmas apartment, you'll get to do just that. 

An open-plan living space dressed in contemporary interiors, colourful artworks and tasteful finishing touches invite guests to completely let go and relax here. While the space is laid out as a studio, the layout of the room ensures the kitchen, living and bedroom areas are very much kept separate for easy transitional living. 

And with the sandy beach of Las Canteras only a ten-minute walk away, you'll always be within easy reach of soaking up some sunshine during the daytime and catching the sunset come evening. The convenient location of this central spot also means you'll have an array of bars and dining delights within walking distance.

Go off-grid for a while at this swoon-worthy casa perched amidst the hills of the charming town of Tejeda. Outside, this home may look like a traditional Finca. But step inside, and there’s nothing twee about this stylish abode. Creative types will love the boho feel about this place. Rustic, natural hues provide a subtle backdrop to those architectural picture windows, revealing blue skies and far-reaching mountains landscapes. Pad out across the cool wooden floors onto the sun terrace with your morning coffee. Come together for alfresco lunches beneath the dappled sun peeking through the bougainvillea vines. Cool off from the midday sun in the shared infinity pool. Or feel anew beneath the outdoor shower. Wherever you choose to while away the time, those views will be right there. As night draws in and the lights of nearby Tejeda begin to twinkle, take a seat beside the outdoor fire pit and prepare to be dazzled as a blanket of stars engulf the sky. And despite its tranquil setting, you’re closer to the action than you think. The charming town of Tejeda is just ten minutes on foot, with its traditional restaurants and the sublime pastry shop, Dulceria Nublo (prepare to join a queue). Or for something a little more adrenaline-pumping, there’s ecotours and rock climbing aplenty close by. Though it’s highly likely, you may never want to leave this place.

It's in the Stars

Sound System

Found only 180 meters away from the sandy shores of the famous Las Canteras Beach, this Canarian Duplex is one for beach lovers. It's worth noting the curved staircase might be tricky for little ones, and though it isn't the most soulful home, it's bright, comfortable and fantastic location-wise. Find your way to golf courses, waterparks, and other tourist attractions in minutes when you're not at the beach. The intelligent lighting system that adjusts to the time of day to save energy is a nice touch.

On the warm, sunny afternoons, the pool is an idyllic spot to bask under the gentle rays. Grab a drink from the fridge to cool down, or immerse in a sunbathing session on the sun beds. Come the evening, share tapas, paella and a bottle of wine on the outdoor dining table. 

When the sun sets on the colourful outdoors, snuggle up in a cushioned seat to watch the sky turn a dusty red. You can even head to the beach for sunset – or any time you fancy – for a dreamy summer setting. And of course, there's a world-class golf-course on the resort that's waiting to be discovered.

Oceanview Hideaway

Welcome to the 'Victoria de los Dioses' holiday home building. Let us introduce you to our amazing holiday accommodation in a paradisiacal setting. If you are looking for a dream place to relax and enjoy an unforgettable holiday, this is the ideal destination for you. The building located in Gran Canaria, one of the most beautiful islands of the Canary archipelago, opened in July 2023 and belongs to the municipality of Telde, between the beaches of Melenara (140 metres away) and Salinetas (250 metres away). Sustainability has been taken into account and it is equipped with intelligent locks so that you can forget about the possible problems that keys can cause. Melenara Beach is 350 metres long and 30 metres wide, with black volcanic sand and a wide range of restaurants that allow you to enjoy the rich and varied local gastronomy.

Azure Tranquility

Heated Pool

24-Hour Security

Situated within a villa complex less than ten minutes' drive from Maspolamas, this recently renovated home will sing to those fond of contemporary design.

Large windows and glass doors bring plenty of natural light into the interior and this asset works particularly well with the wealth of reflective surfaces and stark white walls. There's a preference for minimalism in everything from the sleek kitchen to the pared-back approach to decoration, and we think the host has nailed it.

Besides, you might not actually be spending all that much time indoors, what with the swimming pool out in the garden, along with the barbecue and covered terrace complete with a lounge and alfresco dining table. Here, it's welcomingly easy to make the most of Gran Canaria's year-round warmth.

Elsewhere in the complex, there's a golf course 200m away from the home, as well as entertainment for children and a couple of shops and restaurants. You can also reach many of the beaches that run along the southern coastline of the island in under ten minutes' drive, while the Dunes of Maspalomas don't take much longer, either. 

Joy & Jubilance

Situated on a golfing resort and just a short drive to the beach, this cosy villa satisfies every style of holiday. Golf fanatics can hit the lush greens in the day time, whilst the beach-lovers can lay their towels on the golden sand. It's a location that caters to every vibe.

In between swinging from the tee and swimming in the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea, you'll probably need some down time at the villa. The dreamy outdoor space is where you'll spend most of your time, whether it's taking a dip in the pool or lounging on the sun beds.

A cute outdoor table is tucked under the veranda, perfect for sharing freshly made tapas and a crisp glass of Rioja wine. There's also a table inside, sheltered from the scorching rays of the sun, for the snug nights in.

When the orange hues of sunset illuminate the villa, make your way to the balcony on the second floor. Bring a camera to capture the romance of the moment with your favourite people. 

Birdies & Canaries

Hit rest and reset with Gran Canaria's year-round sunshine and vast golden shores at this smart townhouse offering up direct access to the sheltered beaches of Playa Pasito Blanco in a quiet residential complex.

Spend lazy, hazy mornings by the sandy beach, then beat the heat with a cooling dip in the complex's palm-fringed shared pool. There are sea view cabanas if the urge for a cheeky siesta takes over. Or head home for drinks on your private terrace overlooking the shared pool. 

Inside, you'll love the crisp, contemporary interiors that unite this three-storey townhouse. The place dazzles from top to toe in crisp white, while nautical stripes remind you the deep blue sea is never far away. Over in the pared-back, light-filled bedrooms, kids will love the novelty of the ground-floor bedroom with bunkbeds. While grown-ups can have that top floor suite with a private terrace all to themselves – the perfect spot for peaceful morning coffees to kickstart your day.

If little ones are still full of beans after a day at the beach, the shared playground will keep them happy. Then mosey down to the marina (a five-minute stroll) to gawp at the superyachts before dinner at one of the complex's restaurants. Or, for something a little buzzier, jump in the car for an evening in Meloneras (a five-minute drive). The beach bars and grill restaurants lining the Paseo de las Meloneras waterfront are just the spot for soaking up the sunsets.

Say a Little Playa

Board Games

Ping Pong Table

This sparkling villa is tailor-made for large families or groups of friends looking for private luxury in rural Gran Canaria. Blessed with tranquility and boasting a fun-filled games room, it has the vibe of a five-star hotel that's reserved just for you. 

A huge open-plan living space – decorated in white walls and with tinges of colour on the furniture – is perfect for spending time as one group. However, when the sun sets on the terracotta tiles, you probably want to spend time outdoors. 

The huge terrace is adorned by intimate seating areas, comfy sun beds and, of course, the glistening pool. Every member of the group can fit in the pool, making it an idyllic spot for games of volleyball or water polo. Continuing the competitive side, get the rallies going during table tennis or practice your shooing at table football. 

Come the peace of the evening, there are two cute dining tables on the terrace, perfect for sharing tapas and a bottle of Cava. If you wanted to get out and discover the island, the charming restaurants and bars of Maspalomas are just a short drive away.

Yellow Stars

You've got the best of both worlds at this contemporary villa, set within one of Gran Canaria's most exclusive golf retreats and just an eight-minute drive from expansive golden sands and rolling dunes of Maspalomas beach and Playa del Inglés.

Friends getting together for a holiday will love how spacious this home feels, with two bedrooms spaced apart across the two-storey villa and offering up private shower rooms and direct access to suntrap verandas. But it's that outdoor terrace downstairs with a private heated pool and views of the fairways and mountains beyond that's caught our attention – it's the perfect spot to toast the day with drinks and a barbecue.

When it's time to hit the fairways of the resort's 18-hole golf course, it's just a 200-metre shot away. However, you don't need to be a dab hand with the clubs to enjoy the perks of this resort. Located on the grounds of a luxurious hotel complex, there are plenty of activities to keep the kids entertained (for an additional fee) – think playroom, playground, and kids club. And a spa and shared sunset infinity pool and bar for post-game relaxation. When thoughts turn to food, book yourself a table at the resort's renowned brasserie or mooch into Maspalomas for the evening at one of its smart seafront tavernas.

Sands Dunes & Salty Air 

Rooftop Terrace

Outdoor Kitchen

Overlooking the picturesque and family-friendly fishing village of Puerto de Mogán and set just metres from its 200m-long beach, this top floor apartment enjoys an enviable location in one of the sunniest spots on Earth. 

With an average of 320 days of sun per year, this tranquil southern section of the Gran Canaria coast as good as guarantees great weather, meaning you're free to make the most of the stunning rooftop terrace, soak up some rays on the nearby beach, and explore the nearby canals – the source of the town's nickname, 'Venice of the Canaries'.

However, there's more to Puerto de Mogán than simply sun, sea and sand, with a bustling Friday market attracting visitors from all over the island, plus Instagrammable houses that back the yacht-lined marina.

Back at the apartment, there's an open-plan living area that leads directly out onto an east-facing balcony – perfect for that early morning cup of coffee in the sunshine. Meanwhile, the rooftop terrace some equipped with plenty of comfy seating and a basic outdoor kitchen, so you're free to tuck into alfresco feasts with views out over the town.

Elsewhere, the island has plenty of natural wonders to discover, including the stunning Maspalomas dunes (26km) and the jaw-dropping mountain landscapes that lead towards Pico de las Nieves (45km), while you only need to travel a short distance from shore to find pods of dolphins and whales that call these waters home.


Little Venice Dawn

If you want to be in the heart of Playa del Inglés, then this home could be for you. The Yumbo Centre, with its LGBT bars, clubs, restaurants, and supermarkets, is just 250 metres away. The beach, on the other hand, is 950 metres away. Or you could take a dip in this home's private above-ground plunge pool (there's a fee if you want it heated). There's a larger communal pool in the development, too, if you want to swim some lengths. This home is ideal for friends or a family looking for a central location. 

The Brightest Day

Throws

Overlooking a lush green golf course and the sparkling Atlantic Ocean, this nectarine-coloured villa is the definition of a tropical escape. We could spend all day here lolling about on the terrace, admiring those views – all that's missing is a refreshing cocktail and a magazine. For catnaps in the fresh air, there's no better spot than the Balinese bed, while the heated swimming pool is the perfect place to cool off on sweltering summer afternoons. The whole villa faces west to make the most of the sunshine – as such, it's no surprise that the sunsets here are pretty spectacular. We think they pair best with grilled seafood (locally sourced, of course) and a bottle of Gran Canarian white wine, all enjoyed alfresco as the night rolls in.

When you're ready for adventure, you won't need to travel far. Enjoy a day on the links at the complex's golf course – you'll receive a special discount – or treat yourself to dinner and drinks at the restaurants on-site. Fancy a beach day? Playa de Maspalomas is a sixteen-minute drive away and famous for its vast sand dunes – it's a can't-miss while you're in town.
