Reclaim your nights: How the Tempo Programme in Gran Canaria transforms your rest
Februar 23 2026
Rest & Wellbeing None 
Tossing and turning in bed, staring at the clock in the early hours, and feeling the frustration of not being able to sleep is a reality that is physically and mentally exhausting. If you feel like your rest has become a daily battle, you are not alone.
Lack of sleep is the silent epidemic of our time. In fact, between 5.4 and 6.4 million Spaniards suffer from chronic insomnia, which represents about 14% of the population. Despite society instilling in us the false belief that sleeping little is a trait of productive and successful people , the reality is that we live in a society against sleep. This has led Spain to be the country in the world where the most anti-anxiety medications and sleeping pills are consumed.
But what if the solution wasn't in a pill, but in re-learning how to rest?
Sleep wellness has become a new status symbol. However, the real solution requires going beyond quick fixes. We must restore the lost prestige of sleep.
To achieve this, the Salobre Hotel in Gran Canaria has designed the Tempo Programme, a holistic experience that tackles rest from its roots. It is not just about offering a comfortable bed, but creating a complete sleep ecosystem.
To understand the true impact of this programme, there is nothing better than knowing the experience of real guests. John Fanning arrived at Salobre Hotel seeking help for a long-standing unpredictable and disruptive sleep issue. His nights used to be marked by interruptions, night sweats, and an overactive mind that prevented him from going back to sleep for over an hour.
After reading about the programme in a newspaper in October 2025, John decided to combine a winter sun holiday with the Tempo Programme. His goal was to improve his sleep on holiday and take home tools to feel with more energy and less stress.
The pillars of his transformation during the programme were very clear. The holistic approach of Tempo was fundamental, as it interdependently combines sport, nutrition, and rest, rather than focusing on a single aspect. Furthermore, the breathing and meditation tools provided by Mateo were one of the most useful elements to improve his sleep.
On the other hand, understanding the great importance of nutrition in sleep wellness made a huge difference. All of this, coupled with the assessments and results obtained through the Fitbit device, proved to be extremely helpful to measure his progress.
Today, the first major change John applies in his daily routine is focusing on the breath in all kinds of situations, not just at bedtime. For him, the Tempo Programme is not just a temporary experience, but a significant investment that benefits multiple aspects of life, for life!.
The anxiety of not being able to rest generates more stress, creating a black circle of insomnia. Breaking that cycle requires taking the first step with the right guidance. As John points out, the programme shows you how to improve your life, helping you take the hardest step through the encouragement and guidance of the staff.
The programme provides tools that go beyond sleep, helping participants to eat better, focus, be calmer, and deal with stress. It is an opportunity to be kind to yourself and be guided in multiple aspects that improve the quality of life and sleep.
Do not book a room. Book your reconciliation with rest.
