Meloneras
Possibly the most attractive area in the south of Gran Canaria, an exclusive area where luxury and privacy define the space. Meloneras has a quiet beach with golden sand away from the mass of urbanizations that occur in other tourist enclaves. The golf course, exclusive shops, spas with thalassotherapy centers and gourmet restaurants make the luxury villas with private pools in Meloneras highly coveted by those seeking wellness in their life above all else.
Monte León
One of the most exclusive destinations in the south of the island, an area of contrasts where the landscape is formed by cliffs and crags. Just 10 minutes drive from Playa del Inglés, it has become a place where luxury houses dominate the entire space. Access-controlled developments, homes with stunning views of the mountains, dunes, and ocean. A unique enclave for homes designed by the most reputable architects. An area of luxury and exclusivity where every detail contributes quality of life.
Loma Dos (Arguineguín)
An area of high demand, especially in those homes facing the sea. A residential area, away from the demand for tourism, the noise and the hustle it generates. Loma Dos is very close to the center of Arguineguín and traffic is very light.
Las Raquetas de Campo Internacional
One of the most popular areas for those seeking rest on their vacations or a quiet life as if they were on vacation. Here you can find from exclusive bungalows to luxury villas with swimming pools and a large plot. Being on an exclusive golf course the restaurants in the area will satisfy the most exquisite palates.
Sonnenland
An area in Maspalomas that was born to accommodate tourists but has become a residential area in the last 15 years. There are hotels left but among the residents, European and national mix. Living in Sonnenland takes you away from the most touristic areas and many of the communities are closed, thus maintaining the much sought after access control and privacy. Numerous office businesses also congregate here.
