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.
Best Family Beach Resorts in the Canaries
Can you imagine your child playing on this beautiful beach? Scroll the cursor to see it in 360'.
If yes, consider staying in this residence: Holiday Club Playa Amadores


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

⇒   Apartamentos Rรญo 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 ๐Ÿ‘‰  Apartamentos Cordial Mogรกn 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. 
Which Canary Island is best for families
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.


 ๐Ÿ‘‰  Recommended residence in Taurito, spectacular view.

Well, that's it. I hope I have directed you to the best part of Gran Canaria to go with kids. If so, let me know by sharing the article on your favorite social network. Thanks!

    Which canary island is hottest in december?


    I stayed several time in December in Gran Canaria. I always choose the same area where my friends have a vacation apartment: Puerto Rico. I, usually, lay down on this beautiful beach: Playa de Amadores.

    Hottest Canary Island in December ๐ŸŒž

     – the short answer -

    In general, the Canary Islands have a mild climate in winter but not all the places are so warm. Over the years, I visited all the islands.

    For those who want to spend the Christmas and New Year's Eve in the beach, sunbathing, is the better to stay in Tenerife or Gran Canaria. NO DOUBT!

    • Warmest Canary Islands best for nightlife:
    I suggest you stay in Tenerife if you are looking for the warmest Canary Island that also have a lively nightlife
    • Sunniest Canary Islands in winter:
    Choose Gran Canaria (SOUTHWEST PART) if you prefer sea life, sunbathing, and a more stable and sunniest climate. 

    Trust me. Puerto Rico is the best area to stay in Gran Canaria in winter: you can easily move to the other beaches (Playa Amadores can be reached on foot, if you choose an accommodation on the West Hill, like this residence.)

    I'm sure, once you get here, and looking from the balcony, you'll thank me for the advice! ❤️ 

    Warmest canary island in january



    The warmest Canary island in January is Gran Canaria: the southwestern part.

    Due to its geography, this area remains protected by strong winds, beaches too, so it is a pleasure sunbathe and lying on the beach.

    So if you want to stay in the warmest area of Gran Canaria, in the peak season, it is better to book in advance otherwise, the best accommodation and cheap apartments, will no longer be available. 

    Best place to stay in Gran Canaria in february

    Best accommodation to stay in Gran Canaria near best beaches:

    ⇨ Holiday club vista Amadores: Amazing views. Close to the famous Amadores beach, great for autumn-winter stays. Ideal for couples. Romantic sunset.

    ⇨ Apartamentos Mayaguezonly for adults guests (no children) in Puerto Rico near the harbor.

    ⇨ Warmest Canary island in december - Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa - Beautiful resort located in Puerto de Mogan. Small but pretty beach surrounded by shops. A village made up of white houses with colorful flowers on the balconies. Intimate, full of restaurants, ideal for couples or for families with children.

    Hottest canary island in January

    Gran Canaria. Although the Canaries have a reputation for conserving the warmth of summer practically all year round, there are considerable differences from island to island in terms of climate. 

    Fuerteventura is one of the warmest of the Canary islands in January BUT is windy. I've been there a couple of times in January and February and the weather is very variable. When there is no wind, no cloudy, the sun is burning.

    However I prefer the more stable climate of Puerto Rico (Gran Canaria). The niche in which it is enclosed allows me to enjoy more days of sunshine, which is the main reason why I go to the Canaries in winter.

    However, if you find a cheap flight to Fuerteventura, accommodation is cheaper here. I recommend going to the south: to Morro del Jable, to enjoy the best climate. If you want a little more lively place, choose Caleta de Fuste (which is a blasphemy to say "lively place" in Fuerteventura, the land of relaxation).

    I hope that with my tips about warmest Canary Island, you will choose the perfect place for your holiday and you will come back to home very tanned.

    To know:

    Except for the period of hardship due to Covid, usually is difficult to find cheap apartments if you book in periods like Christmas, New Year's Eve, Carnival, Easter... because lots of tourists, from all over Europe, are wintering here.

    I have nothing more to add, except that the latitude of the Canary Islands allows for maximum absorption of vitamin D: usually deficient in people living in northern countries (vitamin D strengthens the immune system! We all need it!).

    Have a nice trip!
