Villa Margarita, Santa Lucía Overview
Villa Margarita is located in Santa Lucía, Spain. Rated 6.9 out of 10 based on 11 guest reviews.
Villa Margarita in Santa Lucía, ES, is a countryside-leaning base for travelers who want a quieter rhythm while still reaching Gran Canaria’s sights. The property sits at Lugar la Rueda, 3, and the setting suits guests who prefer outdoor time over constant city movement. A seasonal swimming pool, a terrace for downtime, and BBQ facilities give you practical ways to spend the day without leaving the grounds. For stays that run a little longer, luggage storage and a tour desk help you plan routes around the island. Air conditioning is available, which matters in warmer months when you want a reliable retreat between excursions.
Guest feedback is mixed: the hotel holds a 6.9/10 rating from 11 reviews, so it’s best approached with realistic expectations. Some guests have mentioned that the overall experience can feel more straightforward than polished, while others value the calm atmosphere and the chance to connect with the local landscape. The hotel also provides guest education on local ecosystems and culture, which can be a meaningful touch if you’re the type who likes to understand what you’re seeing rather than just ticking off viewpoints.
If you’re planning day trips, you can pair Santa Lucía with major landmarks such as the Caldera de Bandama natural area (around 20 km), Roque Nublo viewpoints (about 45 km), and Playa de Las Canteras in Las Palmas (roughly 20 km). This is best for couples, small groups, and solo explorers who prioritize outdoor facilities and island touring, and who don’t need a dense, walk-everywhere city address.

Should You Book Villa Margarita?
Worth considering if you want a quieter, countryside-style base and will drive to sights; the guest rating of 6.9/10 from 11 reviews suggests a mixed but workable experience. It’s a good fit for travelers who value outdoor time and on-site relaxation more than consistently high review scores.
Best For
- Travelers seeking a quieter, countryside rhythm rather than constant city movement
- Guests who plan to rent a car or use transport to reach major sights like Bandama and Las Canteras (20 km)
- Couples or small groups who want outdoor downtime with a seasonal pool, terrace, and BBQ facilities
- Nature- and culture-interested travelers who will use the tour desk and appreciate local ecosystem/culture education
Not Ideal For
- Travelers expecting consistently strong guest feedback, given the 6.9/10 score from only 11 reviews
- Guests who need very convenient access to the beach and major attractions without relying on transport, since key sights are 20 km+ away
- Light sleepers or anyone sensitive to limited on-site services, since the provided details don’t indicate anything beyond the listed amenities
What to Expect
You arrive to a calm, countryside-leaning setting at Lugar la Rueda, 3, where the pace feels slower and more outdoors-focused. Days tend to revolve around pool time and relaxing on the terrace, with the option to use BBQ facilities when the weather suits. With a tour desk and local ecosystem/culture education available, you can structure trips to nearby natural highlights like the Caldera de Bandama and, farther out, Roque Nublo and Maspalomas dunes. Based on the 11-review average of 6.9/10, expect a stay that works well for the right priorities, but isn’t universally praised.
Location Intelligence
Santa Lucía here is positioned as a quieter base while still keeping major Gran Canaria sights within reach by car, including Monumento Natural de la Caldera de Bandama (20 km) and Playa de Las Canteras (20 km). If you’re aiming for Roque Nublo (area, 45 km) or Las Dunas de Maspalomas (area, 33 km), plan on transport rather than relying on walkability. The closest airport is Gran Canaria Airport (LPA) at 33 km, which is the most practical arrival point.
