Villa Adaya | 3-Bedroom Villa in San Bartolome de Tirajana

A luxury villa rental in Gran Canaria at Salobre Golf Resort places you 15 kilometres south of Maspalomas, where volcanic fairways meet Atlantic views and the southern coast unfolds with equal measures of tranquility and adventure. Villa Adaya sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, making it an intelligent choice for multi-generational families or small groups seeking space without the sprawl of a resort hotel.

Inside Villa Adaya

The ground floor anchors the villa around a kitchen that functions as the intellectual heart of family holidays. Modern cabinetry in glass and natural wood lines the walls; a full-size dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, kettle and toaster sit ready for use. This is the kind of kitchen that turns reluctant cooks into willing volunteers. The dining area flows seamlessly into the living room, where oversized sofas dressed in tactile scatter cushions face a smart television. Step through glass doors and you arrive at a private terrace with an outdoor dining table, positioned to capture southern light for most of the day.

The principal bedroom occupies the ground floor and features twin beds that can be pushed together to form a double, plus an ensuite bathroom. A private terrace with sun loungers extends from this room, offering unobstructed views across the Salobre Golf Course fairways toward the ocean beyond.

The first floor holds two additional bedrooms, each furnished with twin beds and private ensuite bathrooms. These rooms suit children or adults preferring separate sleeping arrangements, with windows that frame the golf course landscape.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The property commands a private grass garden studded with sun loungers—the kind of space where afternoon light pools golden on the lawn while the sound of distant fairway sprinklers creates a rhythmic backdrop. Multiple terraces wrap the villa’s perimeter, each angled to capture different views of the resort’s volcanic topography and, beyond it, the Atlantic horizon.

A barbecue facility anchors the outdoor entertaining area. Villa Adaya shares access to the resort’s communal heated swimming pools, an arrangement that removes the burden of private pool maintenance while retaining intimate outdoor space. Parking is secured on-site.

Air conditioning runs throughout the property. Wi-Fi connectivity is included. A washing machine and dryer handle laundry without fuss. The property also supplies a hairdryer, iron and ironing board, and a wall safe for securing valuables.

Location: Salobre Golf Resort and the Surrounding Area

Villa Adaya sits within Salobre Golf Resort, approximately 15 kilometres from Maspalomas town centre and roughly 30 kilometres from Gran Canaria’s Las Palmas airport. The location balances resort privacy with strategic proximity to Gran Canaria’s primary southern attractions.

Playa del Inglés lies 15 minutes’ drive north—a wide, sandy beach with golden sand, lined with bars, restaurants and retail shops that cater to international visitors. Meloneras Beach, situated near the iconic Maspalomas Lighthouse (constructed in 1890), offers a different character: a upscale promenade anchored by boutique retailers and fine dining establishments, quieter and more refined than its northern neighbour.

The Maspalomas Dunes form a protected natural reserve immediately adjacent to the resort area—essentially a Saharan landscape transplanted to the Canary Islands. Walking trails wind through these dunes, where the light changes dramatically between dawn and dusk. The reserve is roughly 10 kilometres from Villa Adaya.

Salobre Golf Resort itself operates two championship 18-hole courses. The fairways wind through volcanic terrain, creating a golfing experience distinct from European mainland courses. The on-site Sheraton Gran Canaria Salobre Golf Resort provides additional amenities including a spa facility and wellness centre, accessible to villa guests seeking massage treatments or other spa services.

For groceries and everyday provisions, supermarkets operate within the resort vicinity and in nearby Maspalomas. Local markets in Maspalomas showcase regional produce and prepared foods; papas arrugadas (wrinkled potatoes) with mojo sauce appear on nearly every menu as a regional staple. Traditional market stalls operate in surrounding villages, where local festivals and cultural events occur seasonally.

The town of San Bartolomé de Tirajana, roughly 20 kilometres inland, preserves traditional Canarian architecture and hosts a weekly market (Saturdays) that attracts both locals and visitors seeking authentic island crafts and agricultural products.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Multigenerational family groups benefit most from Villa Adaya’s layout: grandparents occupy the master bedroom with its private terrace, while children sleep upstairs with equal privacy and ensuite bathrooms. Three separate bathrooms eliminate morning congestion.

Golf enthusiasts will appreciate immediate access to championship fairways; the villa’s terrace views of the courses mean you can track play from your lounger. Groups of friends seeking shared space for cooking and dining—rather than separate apartments—find the open-plan living and dining arrangement conducive to group dynamics.

Families with younger children benefit from the heated communal pools (safer for group supervision) and proximity to child-friendly beaches like Playa del Inglés, where shallow waters and lifeguard stations are standard. The villa’s maid service and available chef service appeal to families prioritizing relaxation over domestic tasks.
