Peaceful hillside stay in Gran Canaria
Pitched up on the outskirts of the equal parts lively and laid-back resort of Puerto Rico, Servatur Hartaguna is an adults-only (18+) getaway that’s perfect if you’re craving a bit of peace and quiet. You can expect some stellar sea views, too, thanks to its hillside setting.
The main attraction here is the outdoor pool, which has got pride of place on the terrace. Angled towards the sea, and with plenty of sun loungers, Bali beds, and even a whirlpool, it’s the ideal spot to while away an afternoon.
Snacks are available throughout the day from the pool bar (open 8am-4pm in winter, 9am-5pm in summer), while each studio here comes well-equipped with kitchen facilities, so you can always rustle something up when you're feeling peckish. If you don’t feel like cooking, wander down to the resort centre – just a 10-15 minute walk away – and you’ll find a great choice of cafés, bars, and restaurants.
Fancy a trip to the beach? It only takes 10-15 minutes or so to get to Playa de Puerto Rico – a crescent-shaped stretch of sand in a secluded bay.

Find out more about Puerto Rico
When you think of Puerto Rico, you may think of the Caribbean, but the other Puerto Rico – on Gran Canaria’s southwest coast – is just as delightful. Puerto Rico holidays benefit from year-round balmy temperatures and hours of sunshine – in fact, it’s the sunniest spot on Gran Canaria. A lively Canarian resort that’s relaxed enough for all the family, Puerto Rico is nestled at the bottom of a volcanic valley. Its crescent-shaped bay has two breakwaters, making the sea calm enough for children to swim in. A gentle breeze usually blows across the golden sands to help keep sunbathers cool even when temperatures soar.
