Maspalomas Princess

Overview

Maspalomas Princess is the family Gran Canaria Princess hotel, a four-star in Campo Internacional with a water park, a Mini Club and a separate adults-only pool for when the grown-ups want an hour off.

Maspalomas beach and the dunes are a short drive or a long stroll, the golf course is on the doorstep, and the whole place is built around not having to go anywhere.

From a stunning outdoor pool area with snack bars and an exclusive sun terrace, to a choice of restaurants and extensive tropical gardens with towering palm trees, this hotel is the perfect pick for a sun-soaked break.

Rooms

A choice of rooms and suites are available, each boasting a light and airy interior with a neutral, soothing colour palette. You can choose from a Standard Room, Standard Family Room, Superior Family Room, Junior Suite, Suite or a Prestige Suite. General in-room amenities include air conditioning, FREE Wi-Fi, satellite TV, a telephone, safety deposit, a mini fridge and a furnished balcony.

Food & Drink

The hotel shares its dining with its sister hotel, Tabaiba Princess, so there is more choice here than the size of either would suggest. You will find a main buffet restaurant with live cooking stations, an Italian and an Asian restaurant, a poolside snack spot, a family snack bar and a late-night snack service for anyone still going at two in the morning.

The Italian and the Asian are dinner-only and each stay gets one free visit, so book them early rather than leaving it to the last night.

For drinks there is El Goloso by the pool, the Tropical Bar, La Terraza Chill Out in the reception area with live music, and El Teatro, which doubles as the venue for the evening shows and the kids' disco. The H2O Bar is the adults-only one.

Sports & Entertainment

The pool area is shared with the sister hotel and there is a lot of it, from sun loungers and a swim to yoga, Zumba, pilates, beach volley, table tennis, giant chess and live music through the week. Billiards costs extra.

For children there is a water park with two pools, one with slides and one a splash area, both heated through the winter, plus a Mini Club for four to twelve year olds, a playground, an entertainment programme and a mini disco.

Adults get their own corner of it. The 18-plus zone has a heated pool with massage jets and a counter-current section, a chill-out area and bar, and Balinese beds, which are chargeable and worth reserving in the morning rather than hoping at noon.

The spa is 18-plus as well, and it is a proper one: two Finnish saunas, a steam bath, an indoor wellness pool with hydromassage beds and a waterfall, a saline cabin and an ice fountain. There is an entry charge and it is worth booking a slot.
