What is the most popular resort in Gran Canaria for families?

• Location 1- Gran Canaria for kids in Playa de Amadores and Playa Puerto Rico.

I guess the nightlife does not particularly interest those who travel with the family, however many people like to stay in a lively place with shops, restaurants... in this case Puerto Rico (Playa de Amadores is a fraction of it) is the choice best for you.

If yes, consider staying in this residence: Holiday Club Playa Amadores

If you prefere stay in apartment near the beach, choose this:

⇒   Apartamentos Río Piedras near the beach.

Location 2 - Gran Canaria best for families in Puerto de Mogan

Puerto de Mogan is a more characteristic and human-sized resort than Puerto Rico. The village is made up of a central nucleus that rises around the Marina and the beach made of small white houses while the new resorts and the most beautiful tourist villages of Gran Canaria are located on the second line of the sea.
All the beaches listed below are surrounded by showers, restaurants, ice cream parlors, markets, public toilets...

In spite of Puerto Rico and Amadores, this area is completely flat so it is to be favored for those with walking problems or difficulties with the stroller.

I recommend booking this residence in Puerto de Mogan for 👉  Apartamentos Cordial Mogán Valle  perfect for welcoming children, babies, newborn, infant, kids.

Location 3 - Gran Canaria with children in Anfi del Mar

Anfi del Mar is an area where it is difficult to find accommodation because, essentially, it is a beach surrounded by timeshare apartments therefore not available for rent. 

The beach is very suitable for children: the water is transparent and the sea slopes gently, the sand is white.

If you want to stay close to this area there are 2 solutions:

Staying at the Radisson hotel a stone's throw from Anfi beach.
Reaching Anfi by car from Puerto Rico: it is only 3 km.

Location 4 - Gran Canaria with families in Taurito

Taurito does NOT have a great beach, the least attractive of the listed. However, this small town has an aquatic park, with seawater pools, right in the center of the village. Taurito is enclosed in the warmest area of ​​Gran Canaria.

Taurito is frequented by many families with children, best hotel entertainment for kids, while mom and dad can enjoy the carefree holiday. In the image below an overview of the beach.
