It is 2 mins walk from the golf course at Maspalomas and 5 mins walk to the shopping center Faro II. At Faro II there are 2 supermarkets, shops, bars and restaurants. It is easy to get taxis from the road outside the golf club. Maspalomas has a stunning beach (and the world famous sand dunes) - you can walk there in about 20 mins or hop in a taxi. Nearby is the area of Meloneras which has many classy bars, restaurants and shops. Go the other way and you can enjoy the nightlife of Playa del Inglés. If you have a hire car then you can reach the GC-1 motorway in about 4 mins making it easy to get to the city of Las Palmas, shopping in Vecindario or days out in Puerto Rico or Mogan. Gran Canaria has stunning mountain scenery and a drive up into the centre of the island to see the fantastic views is recommended.

Accessibility
The bungalow is over 2 levels, however 1 of the bedrooms (with full bath) is on the ground floor and so is suitable for the elderly or infirm. The garden is mainly tiled so is flat - there is one step up. There are 2 steps down to the street. The roof terrace is accessed via a staircase.
Outside
Private solar heated pool - 4.0m x 2.5m (1.4m deep).
Dining and entertaining area with seating for 8.
Roof terrace with mountain views. Fully tiled sun bathing areas. 8 sun-loungers.
Coast/Beach
The famous beach at Maspalomas is a pleasant 20 minute walk away. The walk to the beach is flat and so is suitable for wheelchairs, buggies etc. At this beach it is easy to get away from the crouds if you wish, but there is also easy access to cafés, restaurants and bars at the beginning of the beach. Additionally there are some kiosks along the beach selling snacks and drinks. It is usually safe to swim in the sea. Sun loungers and "unbrellas" are available at very reasonable daily rental.
Golf
The "Club de Golf de Maspalomas" is 2 mins walk away.
At present, there are 8 golf courses in total throughout Gran Canaria, 3 of which are in the South. The golf courses have been designed by the most prestigious international golf course designers and they all boast exceptional features. The golf courses on Gran Canaria have another important competitive advantage, namely their price, which is well below the average in other areas. The 18-hole courses on the island charge a green fee of around 50 Euros during the off-season (from May to September) and around 70 Euros during the rest of the year, which make them even more appealing when you take into account the quality of the facilities and installations they offer.
Special interest holidays
I addition to the golf, Gran Canaria is famous for its cycling and wind surfing. Shopaholics will also be delighted with the excellent prices of many goods (e.g. electronics) here due to our low VAT rate of 2% to 6%.
Travel
The nearest airport is "Gran Canaria" - code LPA. You may also see the airport referred to by its old name of "Las Palmas". The airport is about a 25 minute drive from the bungalow.
