Apartment Lomo | 3-Bedroom Apartment with Spa in Mogan Mogan
Holiday Home Rental Description
Picture yourself stepping directly onto a Canarian beach from your holiday accommodation—this is the reality of renting a 3-bedroom beachfront apartment in Mogan, Gran Canaria. Apartment Lomo sits metres from the Atlantic, offering six guests the rare combination of seafront living with genuine village charm in one of Spain’s most picturesque coastal settlements. The marina district’s restaurants and fishing activity lie just two minutes’ walk away, yet the apartment delivers the quieter moments you came for.
Inside Apartment Lomo
Apartment Lomo sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The layout works efficiently for families and friend groups: a master bedroom contains a double bed with its own en-suite shower room, while two additional bedrooms each feature twin single beds, again with private en-suite facilities. This arrangement—three separate bathrooms for six people—removes morning scheduling conflicts entirely.
The open-plan living and dining area flows naturally from the kitchen, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing unobstructed ocean views. A substantial dining table seats six comfortably. The lounge area includes substantial sofas positioned to face both the sea vista and a flatscreen Smart TV. Free Wi-Fi keeps you connected if needed, while air conditioning maintains comfort during Mogan’s warmer months (June through September).
The kitchen strikes the balance between form and function. Modern fitted cabinetry houses everything required for self-catering: a full-size oven, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, and coffee machine. The counter space and drawer organisation suggest genuine thought went into the layout—not an afterthought squeezed into a corner. Cooking utensils, cookware, and crockery are provided in sufficient quantities for six people preparing multiple meals simultaneously.
Practical touches throughout include a lift (valuable when carrying luggage), iron and ironing board, hairdryer, and high chair and cot available on request for families with infants. These details matter when renting for extended stays.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
The 80-square-metre sun terrace dominates the apartment’s appeal. This space functions as an outdoor room rather than an afterthought—a covered lounge area with furnished seating, a dining table with chairs, and generous sun loungers positioned to capture morning and afternoon light without harsh midday glare. This is where breakfast happens, where sunset drinks occur, where conversations stretch into evening. The terrace faces across the Port of Mogán, so you watch fishing boats return, yachts shift with the tide, and light transform the water from silver to gold to violet.
A ground-floor garage and parking space address the practical concern of vehicle storage in a busy beachfront location—essential if you’re exploring Gran Canaria’s inland villages and national parks.
Location: Mogan and the Surrounding Area
Mogan occupies a distinctive position on Gran Canaria’s southwestern coast. The town centres on its fishing port—a working harbour where local boats still dock daily—transformed into a destination by waterfront restaurants, galleries, and the distinctive architecture of whitewashed buildings with blue and green shutters. This isn’t a tourist fabrication; it’s an authentic working village that happens to be extraordinarily attractive.
The nearest significant beaches lie within walking distance or a short drive: Playa de Mogan itself (the town beach, 500 metres away) offers sheltered swimming; Playa Puerto de las Nieves (8km northeast) provides a working fishing beach atmosphere; and Playa Arguineguin (12km south) stretches considerably longer for those seeking space. The water temperature ranges from 17°C in January to 21°C in August—cool enough to refresh, warm enough for comfortable swimming without a wetsuit in summer months.
The marina district contains El Peñol and La Tranca restaurants, where fresh catch appears on menus daily. These aren’t tourist traps; locals eat here. Colmado supermarkets stock fresh produce, imported goods, and local specialities like papas arrugadas and local cheeses. The nearby town of Arguineguin (15km south) hosts a substantial Friday market dealing in local agriculture and crafts.
Within 30km lies San Bartolome, known for its winemaking heritage and rural charm; Teror (25km) showcases traditional colonial architecture and Sunday craft markets; and the dramatic ravine and hiking destination of Barranco de Azuaje (18km) attracts walkers exploring Gran Canaria’s interior. For cultural context, the Christopher Columbus House Museum in Las Palmas (48km north, approximately one hour’s drive) documents the explorer’s connection to the island.
Water-based activities cluster around the port: boat rental operators offer half-day and full-day excursions along the coast; sport fishing for marlin and dorado departs regularly; and submarine tours descend to observe marine life in shallow waters offshore. Golf enthusiasts find Maspalomas Golf Club (50km south, 45 minutes’ drive) featuring championship-standard courses on the island’s southern coast.
Cycling routes radiate inland from Mogan toward the mountains; the coastal stretch eastward toward Arguineguin suits road cycling; and mountain biking trails traverse the interior toward Tejeda and the volcanic central plateau.
Seasonal patterns matter here: November through March brings cooler weather (highs of 20-22°C), fewer visitors, and the most comfortable conditions for exploring inland; April through June sees warming temperatures and spring wildflowers; July and August peak in heat and tourism; September through October offers autumn warmth before winter rains begin. December attracts visitors seeking genuine warmth while Europe freezes.

Frequently Asked Questions about Apartment Lomo
How many guests does Apartment Lomo sleep?
Apartment Lomo sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms: one master bedroom with a double bed, two additional bedrooms each with twin single beds. No sofa beds or rollaway options are available, so 6 represents the maximum occupancy. A high chair and cot are available on request for infants, meaning effectively 5-6 adult guests plus a small child can be accommodated.
What is the nearest airport to Apartment Lomo in Mogan?
Gran Canaria Airport (Las Palmas International Airport) serves Apartment Lomo, located approximately 50km northeast of Mogan. The drive takes approximately 45-55 minutes depending on motorway traffic—heaviest around midday during peak season. Car rental desks operate at the airport terminal; pre-arranging hire or arranging a private transfer is advisable during busy travel periods. Public buses connect the airport to central Las Palmas (50 minutes), from where onward transport to Mogan requires a secondary journey.
What is the best time of year to rent Apartment Lomo?
November through March offers the most comfortable conditions: daytime temperatures of 18-22°C, minimal rainfall, and quieter visitor numbers.

October delivers autumn warmth (23-26°C) with fewer visitors than summer. December attracts winter-escape visitors seeking genuine warmth while European weather deteriorates. Booking three to six months ahead secures preferred dates in November-December and Easter periods.
Is Apartment Lomo suitable for families with children?
Yes, with specific considerations. The beachfront location places Playa de Mogan (500 metres away) within walking distance—a sheltered, relatively calm swimming beach suitable for supervised children. Three separate bathrooms mean parents aren’t competing for shower time. The terrace is partially enclosed, providing containable outdoor space for children’s play with sea views visible. The lift simplifies moving luggage and equipment up from parking. High chair and cot availability supports families with infants. Conversely, the property lacks a private pool (though public beaches are immediately accessible) and has no kids’ clubs or entertainment facilities—families expecting resort-style activities should consider alternative arrangements.
