Photos and Description of the Gran Canaria vacation house rental quiet terrace with barbecue amidst plants, few minutes to the beach

My “Finca Monica” seems to be located all alone in the mountains but it´s only a 5 min. drive to the nearest small shopping center at Playa del Cura and the beach. The nearby little town Puerto Rico offers more shops, restaurants of all kinds, pubs and discos and a lot of different  leisure activities such a tennis, squash,  large trampolines, gym and golf (nearby). If you are ready to go a little bit further still (ca. 20 km) you can share the nightlife of Playa del Inglés – that is the absolute contrast to Barranco del Cura – you´ll see... Therefore, it is recommendable but not urgently necessary to hire a car   – when contacting a “Rent a car” I´m very happy to help you if you like.

Details for Finca Monica 1 Studio, Sleeps 3, 1 Bathroom

The studio size with about 50 square meters is ideal for 2-3 people. The kitchen is well equipped with a 4-plate ceramic hob, oven, toaster, coffee maker and a washing machine. It is optically separated from the living/sleeping area by a narrow wooden room divider. In the living area you can use a 2 seat sofa and a wicker chair if you like to stay inside the studio. On the opposite side there is a double bed and there is a lot of space in wardrobes and shelves. But the weather will most certainly lure you outside where you are awaited by a large terrace that invites you to have a glass of wine bathed by moonlight, or maybe an afternoon barbecue under the shade of the palm trees... Looking down from your terrace you’ll see two horses, black and white. Do you want to learn horse riding? There I can help you, please contact me. Also there are two cats, a large very loving black dog, and of course a nice neighbour – me! – I can supply you with all kind of tips and information.

The Barranco del Cura (Barranco means 'rocky valley') where the 'Finca Monica' is situated offers total relax and silence with fantastic formation of the mountains, hiker paths and interesting views all over there. This site invites you to stroll along and hike within the mountains or to have a ride - more informations you´ll get elsewhere. If you are interested in the art of painting, you can join the lessons of a German lady artist who lives here in the barranco, in picturesque surrounding with an excellent view to the ocean and the mountains.

Further details for this vacation house rental in Gran Canaria, Canary Islands

How to go to Finca Monica and adress: From the airport take the motorway South, past Playa del Inglés, further on to Arguineguin and finally to Puerto Rico to the end of the motorway. – At the roundabout go to the right towards Mogán. – Following the street about 800 meters, you will arrive at another roundabout with a sign post leading you to the right at “Barranco del Cura”. – You´ll have to go straight on at the lightly ascending way that after about 500 m will turn into a somewhat bumpy lane. Carry on straight, on reaching a big iron gate I will meet you and guide you on your last meters to your vacation home. Now you are only 8 min away from Puerto Rico, at your destination – Finca Monica in the midst of charming mountains, so quiet that during the night you can hear crickets chirp – something for individualists. Adress : Mona Janke - Barranco del Cura - C/Pardela, n. 28 - 35138 Mogán, Gran Canaria, Spain - Tel.: +34 928 153059 - mobile +34 619 710027

Transfer and sightseeing / excursions: If you need a transfer from or to the airport please inform me. For a small fee I`ll be very happy to arrange it for you. Maybe you are interested in tours or excursions to the surrounding areas, or all over the island? I can help you find the best with my island experience, of almost 14 years! Maybe an interesting example is a folklore event that takes place at every Sunday in Las Palmas in the North of the island. There is also an open tourist bus to see the sights of the city. Inland, you may visit caves where people still live almost under conditions of ancient times – only the antenna outside testifies to modern inventions such as television.

Spanish lessons and hiking: Finally something totally different: If you like you can have a bit of education and additional knowledge. Although I´m not an examined teacher I have intense and long experience with tutoring and beginner lessons in English and Spanish. Perhaps you´ll discover an hitherto hidden talent of foreign languages then – please tell me if you´re interested in this… If you feel like exploring the area on foot all over in the barranco (engl.: rocky valley) you can discover something new. Also dogs (by appointment please) can sport about nearly everywhere. This idyllic part at the southwest of Gran Canaria is situated quite near to the main tourist centers but right here you´ll find only hikers, some animals and those few residents of this Barranco, all of us nice people of all ages.

Other Activities: Deep sea fishing, beach volley, large trampoline, Squash, Gym

Wir konnten eine wunderschöne Woche auf der Finca genießen und uns super erholen. Mona hat uns viele gute Tips gegeben, wo man am besten Essen gehen kann und wann der nächste Flohmarkt ist!
Vielen Dank an dich Mona für die tolle Zeit!!!

Liebe Grüße

Ein Paradies für Kinder .....

Las Palmeras Tijarafe
Review Submitted: September 26, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
.... ist diese wunderbare Oase. Wer Ruhe und Natur liebt, ist hier genau richtig. Alles war sauber und gut gepflegt. Rafaela, 8 Jahre alt, fühlte sich gleich wie zu Hause und schloss Freundschaft mit Karto, Chico und den Pferden. Sie lässt die Tiere herzlich grüßen!
Ich genoss es, zwei Nächte im Freien zu schlafen.
Mona war sehr hilfsbereit und stand uns mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Wir freuen uns schon auf Ihren Besuch bei uns auf La Palma. Bis bald!

Wer die Ruhe sucht...

Review Submitted: August 16, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
..ist genau hier richtig aufgehoben!

Direkt im Barranco del Cura und unweit vom Meer liegt in einer bizarren und idyllischen Lage diese kleine Finca.

Wie beschrieben sind die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten nicht weit entfernt.

Die Finca ist sauber und die hübsche Terasse läd zum grillen, sonnen oder zum Sterne beobachten ein.

Die Vermieterin Mona ist sehr freundlich und kümmert sich schnell bei Problemen.

Vielen Dank Mona, wir bedanken uns für den schönen Aufenthalt vom 21.07. bis zum 06.08.2009 ... Küsschen an Chico und Karto,

die Dresdner :-)

Eine kleine Oase, mal etwas ganz anderes!

Rosemarie + Karl Delbrück
Review Submitted: June 4, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
3 Wochen entspannten Urlaub haben wir im April - Mai 2009
in Finka Monica 2 verbracht.
Sehr erholsam lebt es sich im Barranco del Cura in dem individuell im eigenen Stil ausgestatteten Domizil. Fern von jeglichem Touristenrumel mit Aussicht auf die sonnenbeschienenen Berge, und im Hintergrund, den Ozean.
Und das Highlight: Wunderbar ausgeglichene und warme Temperaturen. Schnell hatten sich unsere Bedenken, spät abends im Dunkeln das etwas versteckte Quartier zu finden, aufgelöst.
Mutter Inge bestätigte sich gekonnt als unser Lotse auf den letzten Kilometern. Mit unseren Vermietern haben wir uns ausgezeichnet verstanden und kommen gern 2010 zurück.

Idylle im Süden Gran Canarias

Thosa Aschaffenburg
Review Submitted: April 5, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Wir verbrachten 9 Tage in der Finca und waren sehr zufrieden: Schönes und gut ausgestattetes Studio mit Terrasse. Absolut ruhige Lage mit direkter Wandermöglichkeit am Haus durch den Barranco. Zwei sehr nette, unaufdringliche Hunde und eine sehr nette Vermieterin. Sehr geeignet für Reisende, die in der Nähe der großen Touristenzentren sein wollen (z.B. für Ausflüge), aber dort nicht wohnen wollen. Zum ruhigen und schönen Strand der Playa de Cura sind es knapp 2 km und zum gut sortierten Supermarkt 1,5 km. Bushaltestelle am Supermarkt. Urlaub also auch ohne Auto möglich, wenn man gut zu Fuß ist oder ein Fahrrad hat...
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und werden Finca Monica 1 weiter empfehlen.
Sabine und Thomas
