If you’re planning a Gran Canaria holiday from the UK, you might be wondering: should you stay in a hotel or book a self-catering apartment? While hotels offer convenience, self-catering apartments are fast becoming the favourite for savvy travellers who want more space, freedom and value for money.
Here’s why booking a self-catering apartment in Gran Canaria might be the smartest move for your next sunny escape.
1. 🏡 More Space, More Privacy
Unlike hotel rooms, self-catering apartments offer separate living, dining and sleeping areas. That means no awkward meal balancing on your lap or whispering after the kids fall asleep. You can relax, cook, watch TV or sip wine on the balcony – just like you would at home.
At Casa Serenity, you’ll enjoy a spacious one-bedroom apartment with a private sea-view balcony and modern comforts.
2. 🍳 Cook What You Like, When You Like
Why stick to set meal times or limited menus? Self-catering means you can eat when it suits you – whether it’s a full English breakfast, quick lunch, or sunset tapas. You’ll save money on eating out every day and enjoy local market produce at your own pace.
Casa Serenity comes with a fully equipped kitchen with 2 plate induction hob, mini oven, microwave, toaster, coffee machine & kettle
3. 💸 Better Value for Longer Stays
Travelling as a couple, solo or with family? Self-catering apartments often work out much cheaper per night – especially if you’re staying for a week or more. No room service charges, mini bar costs or tipping. Just your own fridge and freedom.
Casa Serenity also offers discounts for longer stays – get in touch to find out more.
4. 😌 Feel at Home Abroad
Self-catering is perfect for those who want a quieter, more authentic experience. You’re not tied to busy hotel corridors, scheduled housekeeping or crowded breakfast buffets. Instead, you can enjoy a peaceful morning coffee with sea views or unwind in the pool bar without the hustle.
The Canaima complex, where Casa Serenity is located, is privately owned – giving you a calm and friendly atmosphere.
5. 🚶♀️ Great Location, Walk to Everything
Many self-catering apartments are centrally located – Casa Serenity is just a 7-minute walk to the Puerto Rico Commercial Centre (restaurants, shops, bars) and a 12-minute walk to the beach. You don’t need to rely on taxis or feel isolated.
Want to explore more? The coastal path to Amadores Beach and nearby excursions are right on your doorstep.
