Seaside Palm Beach

"Discovered this jewel of a hotel with my wife Irmgard one year, and have been returning annually ever since, it feels like returning to family, and old world comforts, in a modern setting!!"

"We booked through Tui for the October half term, its not a TUI hotel but the main thing we wanted was heated swimming pools. The hotel is really close to the beach if you want sand and sea, we stayed by the pool and took advantage of the really good all inclusive. Immaculately clean in all areas, rooms are well equipped and the mini bar was stocked daily with loads of selections soft and alcoholic. Pools are REALLY clean which is no mean feat with this many people, only about 350 rooms so not a massive hotel which again we like. The food, every second night its a set menu with very fancy food, no good for fussy eaters so a couple of us struggled. The alternate nights are a buffet but again limited choices for children. It feels wrong talking bad about the food because its really high quality, the house Rose is Whispering Angel to give you a clue. Very few organised activities that we saw like in a normal TUI hotel (no rep) but that's fine for us. Evenings - we played the obligatory UNO and Pass The Pigs with drinks in reception and went to bed about 2230 - 2245 but the music downstairs plays till about 2330 not a problem for us as we don't have small children this could be an issue for others. Overall lovely place and great food (just not to our taste) just caters more for the Europeans than British. Would we come back, no probably not but our choice not a reflection on the hotel."

"Never been to Gran Canaria before but we certainly hit the jackpot with this hotel in Maspalomas. Can't wait to go back. A wonderful holiday."
