Gran Canaria real estate for sale,
on an island of endless spring.

Most buyers begin in the south. Maspalomas and Meloneras offer space and gardens, while Mogán and Arguineguín keep harbour life on a gentler scale.

If you are looking for luxury property for sale, Gran Canaria rewards a patient search. Tell us the area, the kind of home, the floor area and the budget you have in mind.

Maspalomas and Meloneras, beside the dunes

Maspalomas real estate sits around one of the island's great landscapes: a protected sweep of dunes running to the sea, with the lighthouse at its western edge.

• Low, wide villas with south-facing terraces
• Private pools and gardens planted for shade rather than show
• The dunes and the lighthouse as your daily landscape

Meloneras, the calmer neighbour

Meloneras adds a seafront promenade you can walk at dusk, restaurants within reach and a quieter rhythm than the resort streets further east. For a villa that feels private yet close to everything, many searches settle here.

Mogán, Arguineguín and the southwest coast

West of Maspalomas the coast turns steeper and sunnier. Arguineguín keeps its working harbour and its local character, and the hillsides above Amadores and Tauro hold modern homes with long views over the water.

Puerto de Mogán and its canals

Further west, Puerto de Mogán gathers whitewashed houses around a small marina and a web of canals. Real estate in Mogán has its own page.

Las Palmas and the green north

The capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, has its own page too. The old quarter of Vegueta and the long city beach of Las Canteras give it a life the resorts cannot offer.

Above the city, the hills around Tafira and Santa Brígida are cooler and greener than the coast, with gardens and quiet roads.

Finding your home on the island

The right home here depends less on floor area than on where it sits. Weigh a few things before you fall for a view.

• Orientation: the south and southwest are drier and sunnier, the north-facing slopes greener
• Wind: a sheltered terrace matters on an island shaped by the trade winds
• Access: hillside roads can be steep and narrow, so drive them yourself
• Views: ask whether the land in front of the house could be built on later
• Community rules: in shared settings, read them before you commit
