The areas of Puerto Rico and Playa Amadores are the most popular destinations in Gran Canaria for 2014. In recent years, they have been considered one of the most exclusive areas on the island as they provide an incredible natural location (between 3 beautiful valleys overlooking the Atlantic Ocean) and some luxury tourist services that have managed to attract, mainly, tourists from Nordic countries, that travel every year to this corner of Gran Canaria.
Finding a hotel in Playa de Amadores or in Puerto Rico is not an easy task. The large demand and the limited existing offer in the area means that during the high season all accommodations are sold out, and that the possibility of finding a budget hotel in the area of Gran Canaria, is almost impossible. To avoid this, the best option is to take advantage of the early booking campaigns that can offer discounts between 20 and 30% over the price set for the summer season in the area of Playa Amadores.
The current situation of these destinations does not only reflect the good occupation all year round and the purchasing power of many of its visitors, but in the constant increase of its quality complementary offer that includes gourmet restaurants, luxury boutiques, beach clubs, chill outs and cocktail bars with amazing terraces. You can also find a water park, 2 marinas, yachting clubs and shopping centres.
The pull factor generated by the marina situated between the beaches of Puerto Rico and Playa de Amadores is another key element that has led both destinations to top the ranking of the most popular holiday spots in Gran Canaria. Some of the best boats and yachts that sail across the Atlantic can be seen mooring in its waters.
The quality of the water of the beaches, the minimum swell of the bay of Amadores, protected from the different tides that are present in the Atlantic, are the perfect compliment for one of the most exclusive spots of the moment for sun and beach tourism. An irresistible plan for this 2014.
