Why a holiday villa in Canary Islands

The Canary Islands are a treasure trove of natural wonders and captivating landscapes, making them the perfect destination for a dreamy villa holiday. Located off the northwest coast of Africa, this Spanish archipelago boasts year-round subtropical climate, volcanic mountains, and stunning beaches that will leave you in awe. Whether you're looking to relax on golden sand, explore lush forests, or marvel at breathtaking sunsets, the Canary Islands have something for everyone.

Imagine waking up each morning in a spacious villa with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, surrounded by palm trees and fragrant tropical flowers. Spend your days lounging by the pool, snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, or hiking through volcanic landscapes. As the sun sets, enjoy delicious local cuisine and wines at one of the many excellent restaurants that dot the islands. With a villa holiday in the Canary Islands, you'll experience the ultimate combination of relaxation, adventure, and tranquility in a beautiful setting.

When to rent a villa in Canary Islands

The Canary Islands boast a subtropical climate, with temperatures ranging from 17°C to 25°C throughout the year. This makes it an ideal destination for a villa holiday any time of the year. However, if you're looking for the best weather conditions, the islands' peak tourist season runs from June to September. During this period, the sun shines brightly, and the sea temperatures are warm, making it perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and water sports. The months of July and August are the driest, with an average of 10 hours of sunshine per day.

If you prefer milder weather and smaller crowds, consider visiting during the shoulder season, which falls in April, May, September, or October. These periods offer pleasant temperatures, gentle breezes, and fewer tourists, making it ideal for couples or families seeking a more relaxed atmosphere. The winter months (December to February) are the best time to spot whales and dolphins, while also enjoying lower prices for villas and activities. Whatever time of year you choose, the Canary Islands guarantee a warm and welcoming climate for your villa holiday.

Where to go in Canary Islands

The Canary Islands offer a diverse range of destinations to suit every taste and style. For a lively villa holiday experience, head to Tenerife's Costa Adeje or Playa de las Americas on the south coast. These vibrant resorts are known for their bustling promenades, excellent restaurants, and nightclubs that pulse into the early hours. On the other hand, if you're seeking a more relaxed atmosphere, consider Lanzarote's Famara Beach or Fuerteventura's Corralejo village. These tranquil spots offer pristine beaches, gentle trade winds, and picturesque villages to explore.

For a more authentic island experience, venture to Gran Canaria's Maspalomas resort on the south coast. This charming area boasts golden sand dunes, a vibrant marina, and a range of local eateries serving fresh seafood. Alternatively, visit La Palma, often referred to as the most natural of the Canary Islands. This lesser-known gem offers a tranquil atmosphere, stunning hiking trails, and breathtaking sunsets that will leave you in awe. With its rich volcanic landscapes and crystal-clear waters, La Palma is an ideal destination for those seeking an off-the-beaten-path villa holiday experience.
