Villa Majanos

This modern villa in the pretty town of Santa Lucia de Tirijana puts you close to many of Gran Canaria’s natural wonders, from the Roque Nublo and Pico de las Nieves to the stunning eastern coast. With room for up to 12 guests, it’s ideal for a special occasion or large-scale get-together, offering spacious rooms and a beautiful pool and terrace.

Villa Majanos gives you some lovely outdoor spaces to enjoy all day long. You have a covered dining area with barbecue, a lawn with seating area, another dining area (uncovered), plenty of sun loungers, and the gorgeous swimming pool which can be heated if required. For the children, there is also a playground.

Inside, the living room has a comfortable seating area with chunky sofas and armchairs, satellite TV, DVD player and music system, plus an indoor dining area. The kitchen forms part of the same open-plan space, where you have an oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer.

Covering three levels, the house has five bedrooms, including two doubles and two twin rooms. The fifth bedroom also has a double bed, as well as a pull-out bed suitable for a child. In addition to a large family bathroom, there is also a playroom where children can enjoy TV, toys and games.

Santa Lucia de Tirijana is located around 30km inland, and is in the region of 40 minutes’ drive from Gran Canaria Airport. The town is situated south of the spectacular peaks of Roque Nublo and Pico de las Nieves, which are landmarks every visitor to the island should experience at least once.

Head south and you have some attractions the children won’t want to miss, including aquatic Aqualand, the dolphinarium of Palmitos Park, and Cocodrilo with its zoo and animal-themed exhibits. Adults may like to explore the beautiful beaches of Maspalomas, or the luxurious fashion, food and general good living which Meloneras – on Gran Canaria’s southern coast – does so well.
