It Comes in Waves Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Canary Islands

Holiday Rental Description

A sophisticated studio in the heart of Las Palmas, this flat may be pocket-sized, but it's packed with style. Modern artwork, crisp cream walls, glossy wood floors – you definitely won't find any seaside kitsch here.

Start the day with a cup of coffee and a Spanish omelette prepared in the fully-equipped kitchen. If you need to attend to a few pesky work emails, pull up a chair and get down to business at the desk. Come evening, sprawl out on the white leather sofa with a glass of sangria and rest your feet after a day in the sunshine.

And speaking of the weather, you won't find a sweeter spot to bask in the Gran Canaria rays than on Las Canteras Beach. And, even better, it's mere moments from your doorstep – about a minute's walk, in fact. The go-to place for surfing, sunbathing, swimming and snorkelling, chances are, you'll spend every moment with your toes in the sand. There's also an excellent selection of cocktail bars, beachfront restaurants and ice cream parlours nearby for those nights when you don't fancy cooking. What can be dreamier than that?
