Marina Bayview

Nestled on a hillside overlooking the marina of Puerto Rico – a bustling resort town on Gran Canaria’s south coast – this stylish adults-only hotel is ideally suited to couples and friends seeking a sophisticated and laid-back escape on one of Spain’s sunniest islands.

If the idea of spending leisurely days cooling off in the outdoor pool and relaxing on Balinese beds on the sun deck with views overlooking the Atlantic Ocean sounds like your idea of holiday bliss, you’ll be in your element here. You needn’t walk far to get to the nearest beach, Playa de Puerto Rico, which is accessible via a series of steps and a short stroll. The water here is typically calm, clear and perfect for swimming, thanks to its secluded location within a crescent-shaped bay.
