Villa Dragon – Luxurious 5-Bed Retreat in Tauro, Gran Canaria

We were extremely pleased with our choice of holiday villa for our family group. The property itself was fantastically furnished and had a modern feel to it with the gymnasium on the upper floor being a real bonus for our fitness fanatics. Although we had good sunny weather the heated pool was brilliant and we were all able to easily sit around the pool during the day. The Welsh dragon on the pool bottom was one of the aspects that drew us to this villa! We made good use of the Barbecue, the Welcome pack and the free beer! We had hired transport to get from the airport to Tauro so travelling into Puerto Rico itself (5 x mins) wasn’t an issue but the taxi fare was no more than €9.00 one way which meant we could have a drink in town as well. There is a small but well-stocked Spar supermarket in Tauro which is next to the Tauro Grill where we were made to feel very welcome when we ventured out for a meal. I would certainly recommend this villa for any large family group looking for somewhere clean and well maintained. We are already planning our next visit.

This is a modern building, impeccably clean and extremely well appointed with everything you could need for a fantastic holiday, Outdoor dining area and barbeque was great the bar had a barrel of beer and was enjoyed by all, the pool was perfect and a great addition to the property. Lots of space indoors, comfortable furniture and very well equipped. The host made us very welcome and had provided lots of little extras to make us comfortable, everything thought of for the holiday maker’s comfort. The location of the property is amongst a wonderful backdrop of the mountains and convenient for visiting all the popular resorts of the island. Local super market with a good selection of products within easy walking distance. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and would not hesitate to go back.

We arrived and was met by the host, what a great guy nothing was too much trouble, the villa is luxury, we stayed here for a week and did not want to leave, if you want pure relaxation then I would recommend this, the place is so big and discreet, we found our own pool to be great with our own outside bar, it’s a stunning place and Puerto Rico is 5 min in a taxi 5 euros which was great, looking to book later in year…would highly recommend.

When we arrived the first thing that we noticed was the lovely pool side and how quiet and relaxed the area is so we could enjoy the days sat poolside enjoying the sun. Once inside there was a fridge full of goodies for us to enjoy, then came the arguments over which room each of us were going to have. Each of the rooms were spotless and very nicely decorated and very modern on-suite. Once unpacked we went for a walk around to see what is to be found in the area, you can’t miss the 5 star golf course 500 yards away. Just by the golf course there was a shop and a lovely restaurant and standing by the first tee of the course there is a great view of the beach. When we ventured down to the beach we found a lovely little bar where you can sit and watch the sun go down and on a Sunday afternoon listen to live music whilst enjoying the sun. Just a short taxi ride away was the resort of Puerto Rico where there are numerous bars and restaurants to enjoy. I would really recommend this property to anyone that likes to relax in the sun and enjoy the luxury – and did I mention the free beer !!

The villa is amazing!!! Pool area fab, built in bar and plenty of room for large family get togethers, the pool is stunning with the tiled Welsh Dragon at the bottom. The living area and kitchen is very spacious bright and comfortable . Every bedroom is clean and airy and bathroom facilities are in abundance. Also for the keep fit fanatics there is a gym, everything you need is here to enjoy a fabulous holiday!!!
