Villa Danica | 3-Bedroom Villa in Las Palmas Gran Canaria

A three-bedroom luxury villa rental in Las Palmas puts you at the heart of Gran Canaria’s most coveted resort destination. Villa Danica sits within the Salobre Golf Resort complex, where two championship eighteen-hole courses occupy the same sprawling grounds—a distinction unique to the Canary Islands. From your private terrace, the landscape unfolds: fairways, gardens, and the Atlantic horizon beyond.

Inside Villa Danica

Villa Danica sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, arranged across two floors with a ground-level master suite and two upper-floor twin rooms. Every space breathes light and air through floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors that frame the gardens outside.

The ground floor unfolds as a living sanctuary. A spacious open-plan lounge and dining zone anchors the social heart of the villa, fitted with contemporary seating, a flat-screen satellite television, and DVD player. Large sliding wooden doors—warm timber framing cool interior tones—lead into the kitchen. Here, white cabinetry and pale countertops are punctuated by warm wood accents and equipped with an American-style fridge-freezer, integrated oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee machine, and toaster. A compact glass dining table with triangular stools becomes the morning coffee station and pre-dinner drinks spot. A utility room houses both washing machine and tumble dryer. Two bathrooms serve the ground floor: one features a double washbasin, shower, bidet, and WC; the second is a separate guest cloakroom with single washbasin and WC.

The master bedroom occupies the ground floor with direct patio door access to the gardens. A double bed anchors the room, while an ensuite bathroom delivers a freestanding bathtub with overhead shower, single washbasin, hairdryer, bidet, and WC. Air conditioning maintains comfort year-round.

The first floor hosts two twin bedrooms, each with air conditioning, satellite television, and patio doors opening onto private balconies that overlook the pool area, gardens, and golf course beyond. Both rooms share a family bathroom equipped with bath, overhead shower, twin washbasin, bidet, and WC. Bedding in these rooms comprises double beds rather than traditional twin singles, offering flexible sleeping arrangements for groups or families.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The grounds of Villa Danica command as much attention as the interior. An 8 by 4 metre private swimming pool—heated throughout the year—sits at the heart of the outdoor living zone, bordered by generous terraced areas and mature gardens. Multiple sun loungers and garden furniture scatter across the landscape, inviting long afternoons of reading and relaxation.

A covered terrace frames the poolside, its built-in barbecue making outdoor cooking a daily ritual rather than an occasional event. The terrace catches morning light and offers afternoon shade, creating the ideal transition between interior and garden. Private parking sits discreetly away from the main entertainment areas, and Wi-Fi connectivity extends throughout the property, ensuring you remain connected to the world beyond whenever required.

Location: Las Palmas and the Surrounding Area

Villa Danica sits within the Salobre Golf Resort, approximately 8 kilometres south of the town of Maspalomas and just 15 kilometres from the coastal resort of Meloneras. This position places you within minutes of some of Gran Canaria’s most distinctive landscapes and attractions.

The Maspalomas Dunes Nature Reserve—a protected site spanning over 1,000 acres—surrounds the resort. These coastal dunes, with their Saharan character, can be explored on foot or by camel, a genuinely memorable way to experience the landscape. The Maspalomas Lagoon and lighthouse sit within this reserve, offering photographic subjects and peaceful walking routes. The Maspalomas Botanic Garden, positioned adjacent to the golf course itself, showcases cacti and flowering plants native to the Canary Islands and worth a morning visit before lunch.

Meloneras village, 15 kilometres away, lines the seafront with restaurants specialising in fresh seafood. Pulpo, grilled calamari, prawns, paella, and steaks dominate the menus here, with numerous establishments offering both excellent food and unobstructed sea views. The promenade extends for several kilometres, lined with bars serving cocktails, local wines, and tapas. Maspalomas town centre, 8 kilometres distant, contains outdoor markets operating weekdays and Saturdays, selling fresh produce, clothing, and locally-sourced aloe vera skincare products—the plant thrives in Gran Canaria’s climate. Boulevard Faro shopping precinct, within Maspalomas, stocks high-end brands including La Perla, Burberry, and Tommy Hilfiger. The Bellavista and El Varadero shopping centres provide additional retail and dining options within walking distance of the seafront.

The nearest beaches—Playa del Inglés and Playa de Maspalomas—lie 8–10 kilometres away, both accessible within a 12-minute drive. Playa del Inglés offers golden sand and consistent conditions for swimming and water sports. Playa de Maspalomas provides a quieter alternative with views of the dunes. Gran Canaria’s northeast coast, around the town of Agaete, 45 kilometres away, features dramatic volcanic cliffs, coastal pools, and seafood restaurants in a less developed setting.

Gran Canaria Airport, the island’s main gateway, sits 30 kilometres northeast of Villa Danica—approximately 45 minutes by car depending on traffic. The airport receives direct flights from most European capitals and connects to Madrid, Barcelona, and other Spanish hubs. Winter months (November to March) bring the warmest, most stable weather, with temperatures hovering around 20–24°C. Summer months (July to September) are significantly hotter and busier with tourists. Spring (April to May) and autumn (September to October) offer pleasant middle-ground conditions with fewer crowds.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Villa Danica accommodates families with children seeking a villa with pool, gardens, and flexibility—the ground-floor master bedroom suite means parents remain close to the action, whilst the two upper-floor twin bedrooms suit older children or extended family members. High chairs and travel cots are provided on request. The heated pool remains safe for supervised young swimmers, and Playa del Inglés family beach lies just 8 kilometres away with shallow, protected swimming areas.

Multi-generational groups benefit from the split-level layout, where grandparents occupy the private ensuite ground-floor bedroom whilst younger family members enjoy their own space upstairs. Golf-focused groups will find two eighteen-hole championship courses directly accessible from the villa gates—the only dual-course facility in the Canary Islands—alongside tuition facilities and varying difficulty levels for players of all abilities.

Couples seeking a quiet retreat will find the master bedroom’s private garden access and ensuite bathroom conducive to relaxation, whilst the private pool and heated water mean year-round swimming without resort crowds. Small groups of friends can comfortably occupy the twin bedrooms and use the expansive communal spaces for evening entertaining.
