Where to Stay in Gran Canaria: Handpicked Holiday Rentals

Owning a little bolthole on Gran Canaria, the island of a thousand landscapes, is many people’s dream. Some have made it happen – and when they’re not staying there themselves, they’re happy to share it with people like you who are looking for somewhere to stay on holiday.

Forget the big online rental platforms and hosts you can barely communicate with. As one of Crazy Canary’s favourite sayings goes: “You’re not on an e-commerce site – you’re at the start of a great encounter.”

That’s why I’ve picked out a few owners I’ve met along the way and got on well with. We agreed that I’d share their places on my site, because we believe in the same things: friendliness and simplicity.

And once you’ve found your perfect spot, you can treat yourself to some of the activities I offer, like dolphin trips, buggy tours, diving, jet skiing and much more… Click here to see everything you can do.

Thierry’s apartment:

Thierry discovered Gran Canaria in 2019 and fell for this beautiful island straight away. And who could blame him? With the amount of sunshine in the south and such a variety of landscapes – sea and mountains, modern and traditional – how could anyone resist?

Work means he can only enjoy his little slice of paradise a few times a year, so the rest of the time his apartment is available… for you!

No doubt this Gran Canaria fan will be just as keen to explore the other islands when he gets the chance.

Bernard’s apartment:

This gorgeous apartment belongs to Bernard, who’s also Belgian.

Things didn’t get off to an easy start: he bought it just before the first Covid lockdown… But he’s not the type to give up.

After all, you don’t find a place like this without a lot of searching, patience and perseverance.

He fell in love with it immediately, as well as with its tropical garden and the peace and quiet all around.

On top of that, you’ll be right next to the beach and the famous Maspalomas dunes.
