RECOMMENDATIONS - Drinking mineral water is recommended throughout Gran Canaria. - The island of Gran Canaria is known as the "Miniature Continent", due to the great variation that temperatures can undergo according to altitude. Remember that if you want to tour our island, you must bring appropriate clothing for all weather conditions. - The terrain can be very rough. We recommend good boots and trekking gear. Guest access The whole house is available to guests, except for a laundry room. You can walk around the city, as there are many pedestrian areas. The distance to the capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, is about 15 km by highway. There is a free, 24-hour outdoor municipal parking lot about a three-minute walk from the house. Other things to note BEACHES: Although Arucas is located on the slopes of an ancient volcano, it is very close to beaches where you can surf and dive. A little further away, we can already find windsurfing, kite surfing and diving centers in world-renowned places.
