Climate whilst you rent holiday villas Spain

So if you are looking for an idyllic climate for your villas to rent in Spain, look no further.
Location of your holiday rentals Spain
Varying factors alter the climate you experience, so the location of your Spanish villas depending on the temperature and wind levels you would like is rather important. For example, the mountain ranges (up to nearly 2,000 metres high), the wind, the ocean currents and of course geographical latitude determine the climate of Gran Canaria. Therefore where you are situated on your beach or forest holidays could affect the climate you experience. If you are based by the mountains, the ocean air could encounter the range, forming clouds and sometimes rain.
