The beautiful village of Los Gigantes is set on the South West coast of Tenerife. Majestic cliffs and the blue Atlantic ocean dominate the vista. The apartment boasts spectacular views over the sea to view the entire island of La Gomera and is an easy, almost horizontal, walk of some 300 metres from the village where most daily necessities can be found. This includes a supermarket and the bus stop where buses take you to a number of other destinations on the island. There is a lovely marina, good shopping and first class cuisine specialising in locally caught fish. Nearby are Puerto de Santiago and the Blue-Flag beach of Playa de la Arena, both within a short distance of each other. They are just south of the famous cliffs of Los Gigantes (The Giants), and about 20 miles (30 kilometres) north west of Los Cristianos. It is generally acknowledged that the year-round climate in this, the island's most westerly region, is among the best in the Canaries.

Further details for this vacation apartment rental in Los Gigantes, Canary Islands

The village: The commercial centre of Los Gigantes is a hundred metres or so inland from the marina, and although it isn't particularly large, it does have a fair selection of bars and restaurants, along with a pedestrian zone centred around the old church. It is here in the central plaza, where the majority of the events take place during the town's annual carnival, which by tradition is always during the week after Ash Wednesday. The three resorts of Los Gigantes, Puerto Santiago and Playa Arena, have now virtually all merged into one. For most people, despite the hilly nature of this part of the island, moving between the three resorts centres is fairly easy and relaxed. Once you know the route, Puerto Santiago is an enjoyable 20 minute walk away over the cliffs, and Playa Arena then a further 10 minutes or so to the south. If for whatever reason the prospect of a 30 minute walk over the cliffs isn't appealing a taxi ride is only some €3-€4 and there are regular buses.

The Marina: The marina at Los Gigantes is also the departure point for numerous boat trips out to see the dolphin and whale colonies which live between the west coast of Tenerife and the neighbouring island of La Gomera. These trips offer superb value for money compared to those offered by the large tour operators, and you will be almost guaranteed a free child place along with the offer of a free trip next day if you don't see anything. The full details of the range of trips and services available at Los Gigantes Marina can also be found at their web site www.losgigantesmarina.com

Review Submitted: July 21, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Visited Tennerife for the first time in July of this year, and had the pleasure of staying in this appartment. Was clean, newly furnished with sky tv and plenty of music and books to choose from.
The balcony was a nice size with a barbeque ready to use for the more adventurous, and the views were quite simply stunning!
The town was about a five minute walk from the appt and had plenty of small shops and supermarkets, there were also many restaurants all serving quality fresh food.
We enjoyed our stay so much we have already booked a return visit early next year and would reccommend this appartment to anyone thinking of visiting Tennerife.

Great Apartment!

Review Submitted: July 7, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We loved this apartment and were very sad leaving!! It's perfect for two people, really clean, comfortable, well equipped and feels like home from home. The sea views from the terrace are stunning – a great place to watch the sun go down and eat dinner or have a drink.

We spent our days between Oasis swimming pool and Los Gigantes beach - both a reasonably short distance away. There is also a new waterpark called Siam Park which is amazing!! Its near Las Americas so if you have access to a car is well worth a visit. At night there are lots of great restaurants, we ate in Little Italy (towards the beach) and El Pescador (near the square) a few times but there are many more to choose from too...

The walk to the centre of Los Gigantes is short and easy as its downhill all the way... the walk back to the apartment does have an upward slope but isnt too strenuous! There is parking available straight outside the apartment too...

All in all, we would definetly return to this apartment and would recommend to friends and family.

Review Submitted: June 9, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Lovely apartment with wonderful view over the ocean. Very comfortable, clean and everything you need for a relaxing holiday.

Plenty of bars, restaurants, shops etc within short walking distance. Good swimming pools nearby. Night club music could be heard but did stop at midnight so not a problem.

Will hope to visit again in the near future.

Review Submitted: February 4, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
We stayed at this property for 10 days from Jan 14 – Jan 24 2009.
It was our first visit to Tenerife and first January ‘winter sun’ break.
The apartment was perfect for two people, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The sea views from the terrace were stunning – a great place to watch the sun go down with a pre-dinner drink!
The walk to the centre of Los Gigantes only takes a few minutes and is relatively easy, especially heading outwards. There is a bit of an upward walk on the way back but nothing too onerous.
There are some good local pool areas within a short walking distance. We went to the Oasis pool/bathing area which also has a great bar overlooking the sea and the dramatic cliffs.
There is a good choice of local supermarkets/shops as well as a good selection of restaurants to suit various tastes and budgets.
The apartment is in a quiet residential road. You do get some sound from a central music venue from around 10.00pm – 11.30pm – but it is not too loud, only lasts a short time and certainly nothing after midnight. Overall though, it was a peaceful and relaxing apartment and we wouldn’t hesitate to return. It is worth getting a car to explore this lovely part of Tenerife but Los Gigantes is sufficiently self contained if you don’t want to drive anywhere.

Charming & Highly equipped apartment

Review Submitted: January 15, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
We stayed at this apartment during the holiday season for a week and loved it. It is located on a hill with a stunning view. And although the apt. is in Los Gigantes it is well shielded and peaceful. Inside, we found the apartment very tidy, everything in the apartment looks very new and clean. Very cute terrasse where one can grill, sunbathe and enjoy meals on. We would definitely recommend this place to our friends and would choose this apartment to stay at if we come back to Tenerife.
