Glamping in Gran Canaria – Nature, Comfort, and a Little Bit of Style

If you love the idea of camping but want a dash of comfort (and maybe Wi-Fi!), glamping is your new best friend. Think cosy beds, hot showers, and dreamy views, all without giving up the wild beauty of the outdoors. Here are two of Gran Canaria’s best glamping sites for adventure-seekers in search of some inspiration:

El Garañón – Glamping in the Heart of Gran Canaria’s Pine Forests

If your idea of a getaway includes fresh mountain air, star-filled skies, and the scent of pine all around you, El Garañón needs to be on your radar. Tucked away in the island’s highlands, this glamping site blends adventure, comfort, and nature – all just a short drive from the city’s buzz.

Sleep under the stars, minus the hassle

El Garañón is a forest camp like no other. Imagine wooden cabins and cosy bungalows among ancient pine trees. Wake up to birdsong, lace up your boots, and hit the trails! The area is crisscrossed with some of the island’s best hiking routes, including access to Roque Nublo.

The vibe? Rustic yet comfy. You’ve got hot showers, communal dining areas, a swimming pool, and wide-open green spaces for group activities, or just lounging with a good book. For digital nomads who crave off-grid days but need to stay connected, there’s reliable Wi-Fi in common areas too. Work in the morning, explore in the afternoon!

What to do:

One place, endless adventures

Whether you’re solo, with friends, or part of a remote team, El Garañón makes it easy to reconnect with nature.

Blue Ocean Camp – Wake Up to Waves in Tasartico Beach

Sunrise surf sessions, eco-friendly cabins, and ocean views for days: say hello to Blue Ocean Camp, your new favourite spot in Gran Canaria. If you dream of falling asleep to the sound of waves and waking up steps away from the beach, you’re in the right place.

Eco vibes meet coastal cool

This laid-back glamping site is located in Tasartico Beach close to Gui Gui beach, on the wild west coast. Expect wooden eco-domes, tiny houses, and camping pitches, all designed with sustainability in mind. Solar power, local materials and a strong community spirit make this place feel good, in every sense.

The best part? It’s a digital nomad’s dream. Work remotely with an ocean backdrop thanks to solid Wi-Fi, then grab your board and hit the waves. There’s even a saltwater pool if you’re more float-and-chill than surf-and-shred.

What to do:

Slow down, tune in

At Blue Ocean Camp, life is all about balance. Take a digital detox or keep your laptop handy, there’s space for both! From pine forests to wild beaches, Gran Canaria’s glamping spots give you the best of the island without filters. So pack your laptop, your hiking boots, or your surfboard and discover a different side of remote working. Nature’s waiting!

    A least half of the appeal of Las Palmas for remote workers and digital nomads is rooted in this community. It’s the best I’ve seen so far in terms of how well it is organised, structured and nurtured. It offers excellent opportunities to meet new people and explore the island.
