Holiday houses in Gáldar

We had a great stay at the old pump house. It's is located on a beautiful spot with a large garden surrounding the house. The house is equipped with everything you need. The road to the house is narrow and windy, but you will get used to it. This means it takes a short drive to get to places to visit, but it is totally worthwhile the amazing relaxed atmosphere.

Absolutely beautiful apartment in a very quiet area in the north of Gran Canaria, located directly on a smooth pebble beach which is very popular for surfing - so if that's what you're here for, this apartment is unbeatable! There's not much around the local area in terms of town to walk to - shops etc. So if you like being in the "bustle" this isn't for you, but supermarkets are about a 20 minute drive away, and both Agaete and Las Palmas for example are 25-30 minutes away in either direction. Please also be aware that the north of the island can be a bit more cloudy and not as warm as the south etc... we were surprised by the difference! But it's very dramatic and beautiful. The apartment itself was spotlessly clean with plenty of towels etc... nice kitchen, although the dishwasher didn't work - we were told it would be repaired the next day, or day after, but this was not done in the end unfortunately. The views from the apartment are absolutely fantastic - plus great host.

We are very comfortable in the house. It is set apart from the urban core and in full contact with nature. The house is energy self-sufficient. It's very pretty, just like it appears in the photos of the ad. It gives you a lot of peace of mind. Sunrises from bed are amazing. On the farm, there was a hen with her chicks that came to the door of the house. On the day of arrival, there was a bottle of wine for the guests.

I'll make it short: Simply a dream. The place was easy to find. Valentina simply described the check-in instructions to us before arrival and sent us a lot of tips for restaurants and attractions nearby. Messages were responded to quickly. The place was a dream to be in. It made you feel right at home. There were many things for daily needs. The accommodation corresponded exactly to the pictures and was worth every cent. The accommodation is in the north, but you can reach all tourist areas within a maximum of one hour's drive. If we fly to Gran Canaria again, we will definitely stay with Valentina again :)

Great space to relax, the constant reminder from the ocean that you are right beside her. Far from the maddening crowds, a couple of bars and restaurants within a walk if you fancy watching the sun rest while the waves kick up a dance.

We (couple, 63 years old) spent a total of 11 nights in Maria's "paradise" in May 2025 and felt very comfortable. The small apartment is very tastefully furnished and offers complete amenities. From the towels to the bed linen to the coffee machine, everything was there and in really good quality. Particularly noteworthy is the comfortable (albeit rather narrow) bed and the excellent pillows. The absolute highlight is of course the huge roof terrace with a phenomenal view of the mountains and the sea. There, too, everything you could wish for was available in furniture...including comfortable upholstery.

Travelled with my 5 year old grandson - Heaven for a 5 year old boy who loves to fish, rock pool and play in the sand. Also very tranquil watching the sea from the balcony of an evening. We used the sea pools to swim in - just be careful the volcanic rock can be very slippery! Area used by the Spanish - didn’t speak english all week! Popular for body boarding and surfing. Lovely bar walking distance overlooking the sea and near the sandy beach. you will need to shop at a supermarket as Spar in village was closed during our stay and we would recommend a hire car to explore other beaches. We were welcomed by the local neighbours who took time to chat to us daily and felt very at home. if you want a non touristy break we would thoroughly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay in this peaceful and quiet spot in Agaete, in the north of Gran Canaria. The house is located in a valley surrounded by beautiful mountains and nature, a perfect escape from the touristy areas. You can really disconnect here and enjoy watching the weather shift throughout the day, which adds to the charm. The house itself is very spacious. If you’re just with four people, it honestly feels like a palace. It’s beautifully decorated, with each part having its own unique style and character. The pool was a hit with the kids, and I loved being able to do a trail run and walk straight into the mountains from the property. A truly special place that we’d definitely love to come back to!
