Found in an undisturbed location belonging to the tourist hotspot Maspalomas, this wide-stretching complex promises affordable holidays in Gran Canaria. The hotel has a traditional village feel with brightly coloured two-storey buildings surrounded by flower-filled gardens and lamp-lit pathways.

Among its colourful grounds, you’ll also find two pools inviting you in for a refreshing dip, one of which is designed for toddlers with its shallow depth. There’s also an extensive range of activities begging holidaymakers to get up off their sunlounger from yoga to ping pong and even giant chess. What’s more, the onsite restaurant and wine cellar are bound to excite your taste buds.

Upper-floor rooms

If there’s one thing you’re guaranteed when you come to Vistaflor Bungalows, it’s plenty of space. These two-storey stays will feel like you’ve bagged your very own villa with their living area, kitchenette, breakfast bar and outdoor terrace. Its largest options have two bedrooms and sleep a maximum of five guests, while others are ideally positioned for taking in vistas of the pool at sunset.

The design is authentic with green windows and doors alongside floral textiles and warm peach walls. Filled with homely essentials including a hairdryer, air conditioning and coffee making facilities – your comfort is a top priority.

Wine and dine

Whether you’re looking for breakfast only or prefer to go all in with the property’s All Inclusive concept, with four board types to choose from and mini market onsite, there’s bound to be something to suit your needs.

Vistaflor Buffet: Covering your breakfast, lunch and dinner for the duration of your stay, this help-yourself restaurant will keep your stomach full all day long. Early morning you’ll be lured in by the smell of fried eggs sizzling from its show-cooking stations, while lunch offers plenty of snack options. Expect traditional Spanish favourites come dinner alongside international classics including Chinese fare.

Wine Cellar: If you’re a lover of wine, the hotel also comes with its very own cellar housing a collection of bottles from full-bodied reds to dry whites and the island’s top must-trys.

Pool Bar: As you may have guessed this convenient bar is located right by the water and comes with an extensive snack menu. Featuring healthy tuna salads, a variety of pizzas and children’s favourites like fish fingers – all tastes are taken care of. It’s also the place to grab drinks with premium beverages available at an extra charge alongside non-branded beer, wine and spirits as part of the All Inclusive programme.

*Please note – some venues will incur a charge depending on your board type.

An animated complex

Pool days are certainly on the cards when you come to this sprawling property. The main option is perfect for early-morning swimming, while its surrounding loungers are the place to retire with a good book while catching some rays. Meanwhile, mini holidaymakers will love making a splash in the smaller alternative where you’re bound to see an inflatable or two floating in the waters. Back on dry land, there’s also a playground complete with a slide and swing set.

Over at the kids’ club, it’s all about storytimes, team-based activities as well as art and crafts. But this doesn’t mean there’s no fun to be had for adults from aqua aerobic sessions, giant games of chess and table tennis, while bike rental is also available should you fancy something a little more demanding. Come evening, expect holiday style entertainment including professional shows and a mini disco.

Close to Blue Flag-awarded sands

Although away from the main tourist drag which Maspolmas is known for, you couldn’t pick a better setting when it comes to visiting its Blue Flag-accredited coastline. This stunning area of natural beauty has become the star of the resort thanks to its golden sand dunes – and with a free shuttle bus service ready to take you, there’s no such thing as excuses. The centre is also a taxi ride away should you want to head out for a bite to eat.
