Gran Canaria is an island with a varied landscape. The coast is lined with long white beaches while the interior is rugged with green and cacti-covered mountains. Sleepy towns with pastel-coloured buildings lay between vibrant cities and modern resorts while in southern parts of the island desert dunes await. Luxury Gran Canaria holidays offer a tranquil escape.
‘An Oasis in the City Centre’
Royal Hideaway Santa Catalina is a 5 star luxury hotel with both rooms and suites to choose from and many have a private balcony for views across the gardens. There is an outdoor pool, three restaurants, a rooftop bar and an extensive wellness centre featuring spa and gym facilities. There is lots to see and do close by and you can explore the nearby Marina, which is just a five minute walk from your hotel.
‘Tropical Gardens, Close to Beach and Golf Course’
Located in the south of Gran Canaria, the Seaside Grand Hotel Residencia is set within tropical gardens, just minutes from the beach. The hotel has rooms and suites with private wooden balconies and sea, garden or dune views. Leisure facilities include an outdoor swimming pool, spa and wellness centre. The Meloneras Golf course is just over a mile away. The Grand Hotel Residencia has an a la carte restaurant with an open-air terrace as well as a piano and pool bar.
‘Relaxed Ambience; Retro Allure’
Seaside Palm Beach is the first Design Hotel in the Canary Islands, joining a collection of boutique retreats known for their well-thought out design. This is reflected throughout the resort, where a unique retro theme sees bold and colourful interiors, from the 1970’s-inspired Bar Salon to the vibrant, eye-catching guest rooms. There are three restaurants and an additional bar to choose from, with a particular focus on premium, quality ingredients. Families are more than welcome here, children enjoying their own pool and kid’s club. Other leisure options include two outdoor pools, one saltwater and one heated, a floodlit tennis court and a relaxing spa
