Townhouse
Casa Holmston is set in the exclusive Anfi Tauro resort - this Duplex property has been completely renovated to a high spec and is beautifully decorated, it offers the perfect place to relax and unwind. We recently added a new hot tub in the terrace.
Stunning views from the living area and upper balcony terrace. Plenty of space for the whole family and the real standout feature of the property is the amazing kitchen with double door fridge.
There is a large communal heated pool just 2 minutes walk from the property and there is plenty of sun loungers,deck chairs and bean bags. Set right beside the excellent Tauro Grill restaurant and large Spar supermarket - basically you have all you need on your doorstep. It's just a few minutes more to walk to the local Tauro beach.

The interior of the property is all done to the highest level and the kitchen is fantastic and has everything you will need to cook up a storm - or you can use the Webber BBQ on the terrace and enjoy the views..
We highly recommend for families. We can provide cot, high chair, stroller and we even have a kids play box with loads of toys.
We also have an IPTV system which has all European channels, cartoons, sports, including live TV and boxsets. We also have Chromecast.
We recommend hiring a car so you can explore the island but many people get by with taxis and buses and it's also really popular with cyclists. You can park right outside the front door.

Property is set in a quiet and peaceful development so it is perfect for people looking to relax and unwind. If you are looking to party there are much better locations to go to.
Cannot fault this villa. So spacious and clean. Views are gorgeous as is the proximity to beautiful warm beaches. Ger was faultless with his communication. By far the best place we have stayed in Gran Canaria. We very much hope to return.

Perfect for three generations
We have just returned from a fabulous week here and agree with other reviewers' positive comments on location, cleanliness and comfort. With ages ranging from 18 months to 75 years we especially appreciated the full size dishwasher, fridge freezer and washing machine, the huge choice of UK TV channels including Sky Sports, TNT and cartoons, and the heavy curtains that kept the early morning sun out of the bedrooms. Finally thanks to Gerard for being and excellent host.

Excellent
We had a wonderful stay at Casa Holmston, thank you Gerard for excellent hospitality- communication prior to and during our stay with a thorough welcome/ guest pack and arrival essentials which were all very much appreciated and made the holiday very easy and relaxed.
The duplex is very spacious and clean and well furnished. Location was excellent- lovely views over the golf course, shared swimming pool and excellent restaurant on the complex. We loved Amadores which is walkable but only a 5 minute drive away.
We have recommended Gerard’s accommodation to our friends and would very much like to return.

A great holiday at Casa Holmston
Just returned from our holiday at Casa Holmston. A modern comfortable and clean duplex. With great views of the mountains local driving range and a par 3 golf course, so if you play golf it is on your doorstep which we did what a lovely course. It is a quiet area with a spar and grill restaurant which are good. The duplex has a full uk tv package and a bbq on the sun terrace, with the use of a swimming pool by the spar. We did not hire a car we had local taxi's which are good Gerard was great with keeping us up to date with information and his management team who helped with the running of the property where friendly and helpful. Thank you for making our holiday a good one,

Great apartment offering space, tranquillity and great views
Our family of 4 (2 late teenage daughters) stayed at this duplex for 10 nights. There is a great deal to enjoy about the place including the huge amount of space, tranquillity, views and easy access to the pool and beach. It's also a terrific location to investigate the local area either in the car, on a bike or on foot. 10 days flew by and after a fun day out it was a great place to retire to to relax and cool down in the pool. I'm sure we'll return.

Rick Thanks for the fantastic review and happy to hear that you enjoyed your holiday and even better that you are planning to return (like most of our guests). The golfing is great - practice on the range, play the Par3 course and work up to the championship course - it is difficult but some amazing views as you go around. Hope to welcome you back soon.

Another fabulous week
We have stayed in this rental before and so was not surprised by it's clean, well equipped, comfortable and totally fabulous duplex. All that you need for a great holiday is right here. The kitchen is equipped with everything you may need - we even made waffles one night !
It is a spacious family sized duplex with great views over the golf driving range to the hills beyond and a short walk to the pool and the Spar shop that has most of the things you would need from fresh croissants and bread to duty free and Ice creams for refreshing you when lazying by the pool.
Just a lovely relaxing week.

We loved Anfi Tauro!
We've just returned from a fabulous week at Casa Hotmston. Great communication, information and instructions from the owner, a beautifully appointed duplex with a fantastic outlook over the driving range, great facilities (pool, restaurant, and Spar supermarket) within a couple of minute walk made this the ideal place for us. The boys really enjoyed both the 18 hole golf course and the par 3. We will definitely return!

Vi bodde i leiligheten i perioden fra 27.02 til 10.03 og hadde en fantastisk opplevelse av leiligheten. Rent og pent samt at bildene som var oppgitt på nettet var riktige i forhold til opplevelsen når vi kom fram. Leiligheten var fullt utstyrt med alle hjelpemidler, spesielt på kjøkkenet slik at vi kunne benytte dette på samme måte som hjemme. Gerard hadde også et fantastisk team som stod til tjeneste når vi ved et par anledninger hadde behov for det, de var på pletten stort sett med en gang. Både i forkant og underveis i oppholdet hadde vi god kontakt med Gerard som fulgte oss opp som gjester på en meget god måte.
Hele leiligheten framstod som prikkfri under oppholdet.
Vi har vært på reise mange steder rundt om i verden, men denne leiligheten har vært noe av det beste vi har opplevd å leie. Kan anbefales på det sterkeste.
Mvh Sture og Rita Hellesvik

Tauro is based in the middle of the municipality of Mogan , which is primarily dedicated to tourism.
· The main six tourist areas are all within a short drive and comprise Arguineguin, Patalavaca, Anfi del Mar, Puerto Rico, Amadores, Tauro, Playa del Curator, Taurito and Puerto de Mogan. They all feature a range of restaurants and bars along the avenues and walkways that lead to the end of the beaches.
· Amadores beach with its 5 star beach club and numerous bars and restaurants is less than 5 minutes from the villa.
Swimming here is very popular as the beach is designed to cut off large waves from the Atlantic Ocean.
There is so much more to Gran Canaria than sun and beaches - explore the centre and the North. Amazing.
Getting around
We recommend hiring a car but taxis and buses are easy to use.
