★ My name is Juan Betancor. I am the owner of LIVING ARTENARA. Back in 2010, I first founded LIVING LAS CANTERAS, a short-and-medium-term rental management service that was founded with the aim of offering a high-quality alternative solution to vacational rentals in Las Canteras Beach. The success obtained during all these years and our desire to offer an alternative to the rather typical 'sun and beach' stay in the Canary Islands, led us, in March 2021, to found LIVING ARTENARA. ★ Experiencing nature, respecting and living in harmony with the environment is part of the DNA of every inhabitant of Artenara. Those are the principles that also sustain the vision of our company. Nowadays, LIVING ARTENARA consists of 2 cave houses and 2 apartments, all located in the same building. ★ We encourage you to visit our own websites Livinglascanteras and Livingartenara, as well as our social media pages! We inform you of the latest news, offers, new releases and the experiences that our guests share with us during their stay in the apartments. ★ Don't forget that my team and I are available for you 24/7. Should you have any doubt or question, do not hesitate to contact us!

★ Important: Artenara is the municipality located at the highest altitude in Gran Canaria. The roads that reach the town are tortuous, so we advise against driving on them after the sunset. ★ Artenara is about 57 kms by road from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. It is the island's head of municipality located at the HIGHEST ALTITUDE, as well as Gran Canaria's LEAST POPULATED municipality. ★ Artenara means 'place hidden among rocks' in the Aboriginal language. It is a privileged viewpoint of the 2 most impressive geological elements of Gran Canaria: Roque Nublo and Roque Bentayga. It is a sought-after destination for those who go hiking, trail running, or biking. The town is surrounded by PERFECTLY MARKED walking trails. ★ The municipality is one of the greatest exponents of the CAVE HOUSES tradition in Gran Canaria. Their use dates back to the first aborigines and was common until the middle of the last century. We recommend you visit the Artenara Cave Houses Ethnographic Museum, right next to LIVING ARTENARA. ★ Artenara is not a nightlife destination. Restaurants are closed for dinner from Sunday to Thursday most of the year. Buy local products in the supermarkets of the village! Several of them remain open 7 days a week; They are well stocked and offer very competitive prices! In addition, our accommodations have a perfectly EQUIPPED KITCHEN to cook comfortably. In any case, near Artenara you will find Tejeda (about 15 minutes by car), where you will find a wide range of restaurants, for lunch or dinner. ★ Artenara is part of Gran Canaria BIOSPHERE RESERVE. It is a recognition of the effort and work of its inhabitants in demonstrating their respect and good work for generations in areas such as gastronomy, crafts, archeology, etc.
