Luxury holidays in Puerto Mogan

Puerto Mogan isn't considered one of Gran Canaria's prettiest towns for nothing. Sheltered by craggy cliffs and fronted by a striking dark-sand beach, it's certainly not short on good looks. And, if you're after a luxury holiday to Puerto Mogan that comes with plenty of peace and quiet, you're in luck – the vibe here is sleepy and laid-back.

Take the old town, for instance. Luxury holidays in Puerto Mogan are all about exploring its twisting backstreets and sampling some of the best authentic dishes on the island. Flora-smothered tavernas churn out local specialities like 'papas arrugadas' – wrinkly-skinned potatoes baked with salt. Down by the palm-lined harbour, meanwhile, it's all about seafood plucked fresh from the net. As for the new town, it's been dubbed 'Little Venice' by locals. It's centred around a canal that's spanned by Italian-esque footbridges, so it's easy to see where it gets its nickname.

In terms of where to stay on a luxury holiday to Puerto Mogan, the Cordial Mogan Playa is the big hitter. It's surrounded by tranquil gardens, and comes with a sleek spa where you can choose from a long list of treatments. Plus, it's in a great spot, less than a ten-minute walk from the shops, restaurants and bars of Puerto Mogan's harbour.
