We went for 12 nights and the villa was great the host was very helpful and the property was very clean would recommend the area was nice walking distance to everthing is possible but a taxi is only about 5 euros i would definitely recommend
Great location and well positioned for all that Gran Canaria has to offer. The property is as advertised, well equipped and it was fantastic having the private pool! Colin and Beverly were great to deal with and we’d certainly recommend this villa to other families. Go, you’ll have a fantastic time!
Everything we could have ever asked for. Colin and Bev were so helpful and accommodating which made it feel like a home away from home. The villa has everything you could want, both pools were clean and so handy to have and we used them everyday. The whole Villa was spotless. It’s in a great location, you can walk to the beach and the shops.
We had a great holiday, thank you!
We have just spent 10 nights in the villa and had a wonderful time. Inside is a little tired in places, but that didn’t bother us as it had a well-equipped kitchen and felt really homely. The outdoor seating area is fab for relaxing and socialising with the added bonus of the pool to take a dip in whenever you wanted. We also used the communal pool which was very quiet so we often had it to ourselves.
The area is generally quiet and peaceful which is just what we were looking for. We had a car and would recommend having one so you can get around easily. Overall a great place to stay and we would definitely recommend it..

Fantastic villa with pool
This villa has everything for a prefect stay, I'd say it was over stocked with wonderful books and dad's as well as a well stocked kitchen. The neighbourhood was quiet and there are a couple of food shops and restaurants close by. The villa pool has a jacuzzi option and the main pool can be reached through the back door of the property. Found the water scalding hot in the shower room, might need to run it for a while to get the right temperature. But a real gem of a place and wished we'd booked it for longer.

Great Location with all the amenities.
My family of 5 enjoyed our stay, the villa had everything we needed and was ideally located near restaurants, shops and the beach. The only reason not a 5 star is the pool never got above 65 degrees so we did not use it. The pool is solar powered and we had great weather so was expecting it to be warmer. Beverly was very friendly and knowledgeable and even adjusted her schedule to greet us, after I got myself lost locating the villa ( directions provided were spot on) my poor sense of direction caused the delay:) .
We all enjoyed our week at Villa Paraiso. Excellently equipped villa, especially the kitchen, if you like cooking. It was great to have 2 bathrooms too & we loved the outside covered area, where we spent most of our time outside. The solar heated pool isn't huge but was big enough for us, 3 adults.
The villa is in a quiet location, close to a supermarket which was very useful.
We hired a car & ventured into Playa del Ingles, 5 mins away, most evenings where there's a good selection of restaurants. I'd recommend Lola & Wapa Tapa but do book in advance as they're very popular.
We haven't been to Maspalomas for 20 years, so it was nice to get reacquainted with the resort.
I would definitely recommend staying at Villa Paraiso as a base to explore the area.
very clean well maintained home away from home villa
There's everything you need at the villa in perfect working order. A cooker , Hob, microwave, washing machine, air con, TV, sun beds, swimming pool... plenty of cups, plates bowls, glasses for your needs, with a large fridge freezer, unlike many other villas.
Compared to all the other villas ive stayed in, in Maspalomas this was by far the cleanest and most well presented with all the facilities advertised there and working. It is a very good size for 6 people, and we were more than comfortable there. The pool is lovely, just the right temperature and well maintained by a very thorough pool guy 2 days a week. He takes his time to ensure he's cleaned both the pool and the gardens on every visit and is really polite.
We were given a warm greeting to the villa despite a very late night arrival, and she was available for assistance throughout the duration of our stay.
I would definitely recommend this villa to anyone wanting a 4-6 person villa in central Maspalomas, excellent value for money. Thank you to the host.
Overall we enjoyed our stay. Communication was great with an easy check in process via the local agent.
The villa is showing signs of age with some plugs damaged or not working and a few patches of mould in the ensuite.
The Aircon in the bedrooms was excellent and well needed in a very hot August. The kitchen was well equipped but hot to cook in.
Outside area was nice but the pool is salty as doesn't use chlorine. The community pool is 30 seconds walk and was large and empty. The kids loved it.
30 min walk to the promenade of Mespalomas where there are lots of nice restaurants. We got several taxis which were really easy to use and only 5-7 euro. Local area was generally quiet although you could hear the local resort discos in the evening but it was silent from 10:30ish. Shop is 5 mins walk.
We did struggle with insects inside the villa but it was very hot when we stayed. We used a can of insect killer spray to try and kill them each night. I imagine this is common in this area.
Excellent communication from Colin during the booking experience and from Bev during our stay.
Overall the villa was great. Pool although a little small is warm and the jacuzzi feature is fab. And is complemented by the communal pool which is rarely used by others!
Great modern kitchen with all appliances and crockery that you will need. We had some lovely lunches and meals out on the veranda in the sunshine surrounded by a lush garden. We even picked some limes from the tree for our evening gin! And were given some mango from the neighbour.
The only negatives were that there was no WiFi available until day 8 of our 14 day holiday - fine for the adults but not so for our 11 year old. It would have been good to have been told in advance of this since we understood that it’s been an issue for months. However when it was fitted it was super fast and great. The other negative and not a fault was the lack of BBQ due to the wild fires. This is something we of course love on holiday and missed it - again it would have been nice to be told before we arrived but understand (even though the neighbours next door had regular bbq’s!).
All in all a wonderful stay in a very well located villa. Thanks Colin and Bev. Hopefully see you again.
My wife and I stayed with 3 children aged 11,12 and 13. We all had a great, relaxing time at the villa. We found it all to be fully equipped with everything we needed. My wife particularly liked the well stocked library and made use of borrowing a couple of good reads to enjoy by the pool. Kids loved the pool, it wasn't huge but perfectly adequate for us and held the heat well, which was a nice added bonus.
There were a few things that could probably do with some updating and some bits were a little worn and overused. However in the main this dod not interrupt our stay and the good points to the villa by far out weighed any negative ones, it is really well stocked with everything we needed..
The neighbourhood was generally very quiet. There isn't a huge amount locally, there is a reasonably priced supermarket however and a restaurant. For a bit of entertainment there is a place called holiday world 10 minutes walk. There is also a large supermarket 25 minutes walk away, which was a pleasurable walk we done a few times to stock up. We also walked to play del ingles in 45 minutes. Again a pleasurable walk but if you didn't want to walk either of them, taxis are quite cheap.
Beverley was brilliant, arranging our pick up and drop off very informative and quick to respond to any queries we had.
Overall a very enjoyable stay, if we went back to gran canaria we would have no hesitation in staying at this villa again.
die Lage des Objekts ist sehr ruhig und daher super. Das Objekt selbst ist schön. Der Pool ein Traum. Im großen und ganzen haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
The villa was ideally located, with a local supermarket about 5 minutes walk away, that stocked everything you'd need, and also within walking distance to the Yumbo Centre and the Beach both were approximately 25 minutes walk away. The villa itself was clean and very well equipped, and the outdoor space with the heated pool was very private and a great area to relax. The communication with Colin was excellent and the booking in process with Beverly was very smooth. We all loved the villa and hope to book again soon.
We have just come back from a 9 night stay, villa was lovely, it’s was mega hot so the air conditioning was a must. Some of the plates, bowels etc were dirty when we got them out to use but that’s nothing to do with the cleanliness of the villa, that’s the people before us!
The little pool in the front garden was lovely but we also had access to a bigger one out the back which is used by other villas but hardly anyone else used it, the kids thought it was great. Beach is about a 20 min walk, bit longer for us as it was so hot. There are plenty of buses that we used regularly to explore the island and these were fab and a good price and the stop by the villa is about a 2 min walk so it was perfect.
Beverly collected us from the airport was lovely and even stopped at the supermarket on route so we could get some supplies for that evening.
We used the local HiperDino supermarket which catered for all our needs. If there was one thing that could be improved it would just be a local map showing where to go for everything, we founds things quite easily but a local map would of helped. Fab time had by all.
Insgesamt ist das Objekt etwas "in die Jahre gekommen". Die Küchenausstattung ist überholt (Glasteller etc.). Die Lage ist schön und ruhig und hat vieles ausgeglichen was den Preis auch "einigermaßen" rechtfertigt.
We enjoyed our stay in this house a lot.
It is very cozy, clean and has a nice atmosphere. We enjoyed the heated pool in the garden and the big community pool just around the corner.
The contact with Beverly was very nice and welcoming and she helped us wherever she could. Thanks a lot, Beverly!
We would definitely recommend this house to our family and friends!
Es handelt sich um ein schönes Haus mit sehr guter Ausstattung in einer tollen Umgebung.
Die Beschreibung trifft es sehr gut. Lediglich Winzigkeiten sind aufgefallen, wie z.B.:
Die abgebildete Kaffeemaschine war zunächst nicht vorhanden und das WLAN war in manchen Räumen grenzwertig schwach. Das hat aber nicht wirklich gestört.
Zu unserer großen Freude war aber doch ein Grill vorhanden. Der Pool war sogar etwas größer, als er auf den Bildern wirkt. Für einen großen Badespaß am Nachmittag ist er absolut ausreichend.
Die Haushälterin war sehr nett, flexibel und pünktlich. Das Haus machte zu jeder Zeit einen sehr sauberen Eindruck.
Die Umgebung war trotz der anwesenden Nachbarn fast immer angenehm ruhig.
Wir kommen bestimmt wieder :-)
