Gran Canaria Vacation Rental apartment: Puerto Rico

Absolutely perfect. The sun shone every day and it was consistent at around 28 degrees. The apartment is on a small residential complex with great views all round. It's in a very quiet location but close enough to explore the nightlife if you feel the need. It's very well fitted out with all the comforts of home. A 5 Euro taxi ride takes you into Puerto Rico. I went one evening but it's a bit too busy and 'in your face' for me. The Europa centre is an easy 10 minute walk away and is full of bars, restaurants and shops which are, sometimes, a little pushy but not as bad as Puert Rico. Amadores, on the other hand, was great. Great white sand beach and the restaurants in the evenings catered for all tastes. Further afield is Mogan which is very pretty and well worth a visit. There are boats from P. Rico regularly. Another must is the dolphin boat from P. Rico. They guarantee you will see dolphins and if not, then you get a free trip. We must have seen fifty! This was my first trip to G. Canaria and I count my blessings I booked 13 Vista Golf. I will definitely be back. It was so laid back compared to Playa del Ingles and Maspalomas. If I were to offer one word of warning it would be that G.Can is VERY hilly and so a car is a must for me. Although there were some Norwegians who seemed to delight in walking up and down. To sum up then I thoroughly recommend Gran Canaria and particularly Vista Golf.

There is not a lot more I can add to what has already been said of this appartment, location; brilliant, Facilities;outstanding, a great place to relax and a good base to explore the island from. Already thinking about when to book a return visit. p.s. great service from Ian the owner.

We stayed here for 1 week in April 2009, a quiet relaxing break without the kids - it was wonderful! The apartment is very well furnished, spotlessly clean and has everything you need. Nice to have a double bed! The views of Amadores Beach from the Balcony are stunning. We picked up a car at the airport which we used the whole week, it worked out really reasonable and would definitely recommend. We had the pool to ourselves the whole week. Plenty of nice places to eat nearby, would recommend Oscars del Puerto at Puerto Rico Harbour and the Harbour at Puerto de Mogan also has some lovely restaurants. We picked up our weekly supply of drinks & nibbles from the 24 hour supermarket at the Atlantico Shopping Centre which isn't far from the Airport, worth a visit if you have a car.
