Map & location
San Agustin, Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain
Don Gregory By Dunas has a standout setting in San Agustin, one of Gran Canaria’s quieter resorts. The hotel sits directly on Las Burras beach, a sweeping dark-sand bay with calm waters ideal for relaxed swims and seaside strolls.
A palm-lined promenade runs from the hotel all the way towards Playa del Inglés, giving you traffic-free walking and jogging routes, plus easy access to cafés and seafood restaurants. San Agustin itself has a low-key, local feel, with a casino, seafront bars and a handy shopping centre just up the road, while the livelier nightlife and dunes of Playa del Inglés are a short taxi or bus ride away.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
With the Atlantic practically at your feet, pool time and beach time seamlessly blend together here.
The hotel offers two outdoor freshwater pools, both adults-only and both usually heated from 1 November to 30 April – a big plus for winter sun seekers. One of these is an impressive infinity-style pool edged by a spacious sun terrace, with loungers and parasols facing the ocean for uninterrupted views.
Complimentary pool towels are provided with a refundable deposit, so you can travel light.
Step through the gate and you’re directly on Las Burras beach, a dark-sand bay with gently shelving waters, ideal for swimming, paddling and relaxed seaside strolls. Follow the promenade to find additional bars and restaurants, or wander further towards Playa del Inglés if you fancy a longer walk.
