Heerlijke carnavalsvakantie

We hebben enorm genoten van ons verblijf in deze mooie villa. Het huis heeft alles dat nodig is voor een ontspannen vakantie. Een fantastisch zwembad, heerlijke bedden, pingpongtafel, complete keuken en met de auto perfect bereikbaar. Het huis was schoon en voorzien van eerste benodigdheden bij aankomst. Ook het contact met de eigenaar verliep vlot. De perfecte plek om te genieten van zon en rust!

Great villa

The villa was very spacious and clean. It had everything we needed as a family with a 13 and 10 year old. We found the location perfect; peaceful at the villa and a short drive (15-20mins) to numerous beaches and restaurants. The kids enjoyed Puerto Rico beach mainly because they could jump off the small platforms. Mogan is really pretty and with a good beach. We found the nicest restaurants in Mogan. Definitely need a hire car (cicar is good). Michael is really helpful and quick to respond to messages. Would happily recommend this villa and book again. Thank you Michael for a lovely holiday.

Nice house in quiet village.

This house was great for us with our older son and his girlfriend holidaying with us. The bedroom and bathroom space allowed for us all to be separate when we wanted to be. The games room was great fun as was the pool. Be prepared for a 20 minute drive to get to the main motorway. This house is in a village in the Arguiniguin ravine so is surrounded by mountains. We went to the rustic, welcoming and good value restaurant at El Pinello at least 3 times. This is only a 5 min drive away. Lovely staff there! The house was very clean overall, however the shower cubicles did need scrubbing down as there was orange body fat build up in places. The upstairs shower also has low pressure but we made do and coped ok. The manager Michae, was very responsive when we had to contact him. When we arrived, expecting a welcome pack of basic items -as stated in the house notes- we arrived to an empty fridge. In our experience of staying in private villas, at the least, one bottle of water is provided on arrival. Michael did get in touch with the local contact who did bring a few basic staples later in on the day. We also had to contact Michael because the pool filter wasn’t running. Again his local agent did come and sort this out. These were minor niggles and did not impact on our overall experience. A lovely house in a Canarian village, with a small local shop, far away from the hustle bustle of tourist areas. You definitely need a car but if you don’t mind lots of driving you’ll have a great break in El Horno!

Holiday Home away from Home.

Gorgeous property. Photos don't do it justice. Everything you need and more. Very spacious with lots of rooms so great when everyone wants their own space (especially when you have teenagers) pool can only be described as a slightly warm bath. Couldn't get the rest of the family out to go sight seeing. Clean, well equipped and Michael was on stand by via email to answer any questions. Fantastic property would most definitely recommend.

Delightfully peaceful mountain retreat

A lovely stay in villa Fortuna with our 4 year old son. The location is quiet and peaceful, away from the hustle and bustle, nestled in a valley with stunning 360 degree mountain views. The villa is well appointed, spacious and comfortable and the private pool a godsend. A car is essential, in my opinion, as there is little in walking distance, but this just encouraged us to explore more of the island than we otherwise would have done. The owner was excellent at responding to queries quickly and very flexible with our checkout time, which we appreciated. A lovely, restorative stay.

Familienurlaub

Wir waren zu 4. In diesem Anwesen und waren rundum zufrieden. Die in den vorgängigen Kommentaren bemängelten Hunde und den Hahn empfanden wir nicht als störend, geschweige denn schlafraubend. Alles in Allem ein liebevoll gestaltetes und eingerichtetes Anwesen. Den einen Stern Abzug bei der Sauberkeit sind nur den verkalkten Duschköpfen und Leitungen geschuldet, worüber man aber getrost hinwegschauen kann. Kommen gerne wieder.

Tolles Ferienhaus in ländlicher Umgebung

Dieses Haus ist der Wahnsinn, wenn man nicht unbedingt direkt am Meer sein muss, sondern auch die Berge und das Hinterland von Gran Canaria genießen will. Trotzdem ist man in 15 Minuten mit dem Auto auch am Meer. Das Haus ist sehr geräumig, sauber, schön eingerichtet und sehr gut ausgestattet. Toller beheizter und beleuchteter Salzwasser-Pool zur perfekten Entspannung. Gaming Room mit Pool Billiard, Tischtennisplatte und Fitnessgeräten - alles bestens in Schuss. Wohnzimmer und alle Schlafzimmer mit Klimaanlage und/oder Deckenventilator. Auch in der Küche (außen und innen) findet man alles was man braucht. Fazit: ein Ferienhaus in wunderschöner Lage mit bester Ausstattung, das ganz viele Möglichkeiten bietet. Sehr weiterzuempfehlen!

Beautiful Villa in the mountains

We had a fantastic week at Villa Fortuna. The sun rose over the mountains as we ate breakfast. Spectacular. The villa is huge and was perfect for the 6 of us. We spent most of the daytime exploring but it was always nice to come home to the house and sit outside on the terrace and drink wine and relax. I have only one criticism of the Villa and that it is in need of a little TLC in some areas. Possibly the owners have not been able to visit recently because of situation in the Canaries. Overall we had a wonderful holiday. Communication and contact with the owner was great and the information and welcome pack much appreciated.

Por otra parte, había una rotura en una pieza en la piscina, qur no dependía del señor de mantenimiento que por cierto es todo un profesional.

Tolles Haus, toller Gastgeber

Das Haus von Michael liegt in den Bergen von Gran Canaria und bietet wirklich alles, was man erwarten kann. Es hat einen tollen sauberen Pool, darum sind schöne Liegen, ein Grill und eine Kochplatte und sogar eine kleine Bar. Außerdem gibt es eine ganz neue Tischtennisplatte, Pool-Billard und jede Menge anderer Spiele. Alles ist schön sauber und gemütlich eingerichtet. Schön fand ich auch die Betten und Bettwäsche. Es gibt eine ausführliche Anleitung und viele Empfehlungen, die man vor Ankommen zugeschickt bekommt. Alles in Allem: nur zu empfehlen. Vielen Dank Michael für alles.

Excellent

Stayed here in February with my family of 4 and two friends, the photos on the listing do not do the property justice. Plenty of room and very well equipped. The outside space was fine and we all enjoyed the pool which was warm even in February ! nice to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the coastal resorts however these are easy to reach by car within 20 to 30 mins. Very easy booking and Micheal the owner communicating throughout the process, I did not need to chase anything, Micheal even offered some help when we were grounded at the airport being closed due to the Calima. Thank you Micheal, Excellent holiday at the Villa and was enjoyed by all and would have no hesitation in booking this villa again.

Schöne Zeit

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit in diesem tollen Haus, an dem es nichts auszusetzen gibt. Leider war unsere Zeit zu kurz um das ganze Angebot (Pool, Fitnessgeräte, Tischtennis, Billard)zu nutzen. Ich würde von der Lage nach auf jeden Fall einen Mietwagen empfehlen. Das einzige was wirklich "anstrengend" war, ist die Vielzahl der Hunde in der Umgebung, die gerne auf sich aufmerksam machen.

Fabulous holiday, superb house and excellent communication

Firstly I must apologise for taking so long in leaving our review! We stayed here in March (2019 (I'm not *that* slow!)) but leaving a review has been on my list of "things to do" ever since... but better late than never as they say! We stayed here with two adults and two kids and there was ample room for all of us without feeling cramped. The kids (and adults!) loved the pool and the games room. Everything was clean, well kept, modern and very much up to standard seen on the photos on here. Parking on the street outside was an absolute breeze (you never know how busy somewhere might be for parking but trust me, you'll NOT have a problem getting parked!) We literally only have two 'negative' things to say and they're really not big issues and one is certainly not within the owners control but as I always like to read reviews that are fair and written well, here goes: 1) The pool was a teeny tiny bit chilly come later afternoon/evening but that didn't stop us enjoying it - it WAS heated but we're all wimps and would have preferred it a smidge warmer(!) 2) That blooming cockeral that lives somewhere on the mountain side near-ish the house needs cooking up for Sunday dinner(!) (I'm a huge animal lover, I do say this in jest, but in all honesty, it did wake me up a few mornings - you can tell its a long way off and it's echoing between the hills and I certainly appreciate it isn't the property owners' fault or anything within their control but I did think I'd write about it in my review as it starts its morning wake up call as soon as the sun starts rising right through til 10am ish so if you're a fellow light sleeper (like myself and my daughter) you might well be woken up quite early BUT, like I say, no detriment to the holiday because frankly, sitting outside waiting for the sun to appear over the mountain, while listening to the cockeral, with a cup of tea in your hands, in the lovely warm climate = bliss! Would we go back? 100% definitely! Highly recommended!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Franklin

I live in England with my partner Maria and 3 children. We run our own business and holiday in Gran Canaria to take time out.

Why they chose this property

Having been to Gran Canaria on numerous occasions a number of factors stand out:

- great all year round weather
- beaches to the south of the island, mountain scenery, and city facilities in Las Palmas - there's something for everyone
- day-to-day life runs at a slower pace than back in England
- 4 hour flight time - important if you have young children!

What makes this property unique

The villa is a 12 minute drive off the main GC-1/Arguineguin. You have easy access to all the main shops and tourist areas but without the hustle & bustle of a tourist quarter. The view when you wake up and the sun rises over the mountains is out of this world.

The villa was recently built in 2007 and therefore provides modern accommodation. It comes loaded with all modern facilities such as Wifi, Air-conditioning, dishwasher etc. Also, there is a games room with a pool table, table tennis and gym equipment to keep you amused when not in the sun.

The villa has a new heated swimming pool that helps refresh you during those sunny days or under a star lit night.
