Villa Emilio

About this property

This contemporary 2-bedroom holiday home on Gran Canaria’s south coast enjoys a stunning view across the Salobre Golf Resort near Maspalomas. Its elevated terrace with seating area is perhaps the best place of all to experience it, and you also have your own private pool at Villa Emilio too.

Suitable for up to four guests, Villa Emilio is modern and comfortable, offering a seamless combination of indoor and outdoor living. Beside the swimming pool, which is available all year round, you have sun loungers and a covered dining area. You can then go straight inside to the living area with TV and internet access, as well as a DVD player and music system.

There is a large seating area in this open-plan space, which also includes the kitchen with oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer. You have two bedrooms, a double and a twin, and a bathroom with a shower and WC.

The house has a sunny position and is very quiet. Of course, it’s perfect for golf lovers with the course so close, but even if you’re not, Villa Emilio has plenty to enjoy within a short distance. You are around 3km from the sandy beaches of Maspalomas, and there’s no shortage of excellent restaurants, bars and cafés to eat in around town. There’s even a restaurant just 100m from the house.

Looking out to the sea and mountains, the view from Villa Emilio will give you a hint of Gran Canaria’s magnificent natural beauty. It will be worth your while hiring a car to explore it all – from the sublime Roque Nublo near Tejada, a volcanic rock formation some 67m high, to the atmospheric sand dunes of Maspalomas itself, there is always something worth seeing. Children will love a trip to Palmitos Park or Cocodrilo Park, a pair of zoos with a huge range of species, both within a 20-30 minute drive

Gran Canaria is an island which has it all. Exquisite landscapes, beautiful beaches, entertainment when you want it, and peace and quiet when you don’t. Its irresistible mix of nature, culture and a warm welcome to visitors brings people back time and again.

The capital, Las Palmas, sits in the far north-eastern corner of the island. Among its highlights are the huge marina, Muelle Deportivo, and the beautifully designed park, Parque Doramas. Also, look out for the eye-catching Alfredo Klaus Auditorium which itself looks out on Las Canteras beach. You may even see a show or a concert there.

There is lots more of architectural interest in the town. Many of the most interesting buildings are found in the Vegueta area, including Santa Ana Cathedral. You will also find a Christopher Columbus museum and a modern art gallery in this district.

Away from Las Palmas, Gran Canaria has many more highlights. The Cueva Pintada archaeological site is a must for history lovers, while the cloud-filled views at the island’s peak near the town of Tejada are definitely worth the journey. On the southern coast, you have the sand dunes of the extensive beaches at Maspalomas, while charming spots like Puerto de las Nieves and Agaete in the north west, will simply make you feel good with their unspoilt natural beauty.

As one of Europe’s most gay-friendly destinations, Gran Canaria has no shortage of welcoming bars and clubs, while the regular carnivals and fiestas provide good fun for all. Whatever you plan on doing, you can be sure Gran Canaria has the weather for it, with the sun shining pretty much continuously all year round.
