Visiting Puerto Rico in Gran Canaria for two weeks, is there much for us to do?

Question

Is it easy to visit other nearby resorts? What is Puerto Rico like? Will I be bored by the end of it? Oh and finally...I hear Gran Canaria is bad for cockroaches...is this true? Will they be all over our accommodation?

Answer 4

it is fab!!  i had a great time and saw no cockroaches!!!  its very nice commercial centre is the best place to go at night lots of bars!!  there is a lovely beach not far away from puerto rico, think it was called amazores beach, u will have a great time!!

Answer 5

Its certainly very hilly, no doubt about that!!  As I recall, Puerto Rico seems to be in something of a cove in the hillside, sloping down to the beach, in Gran Canaria, but I think other towns/resorts are not too far away.  A taxi ride at night, probably.  

When we were there, we were either half or full board, I cant remember - so we tended to stay within our resort.  We explored during the day, and stayed in for the entertainment during the evenings.  

There are some interesting tours to do during the day - an island tour is good, taking you to the north of the island, and inland, to explore volcanic looking landscapes!!

I think you will enjoy it!  We did!  We are off to Tenerife on Tuesday, so we will wave to you!!!!

Answer 6
