The resort’s palm-shaded pool area is designed for every kind of swimmer. There are five outdoor pools in total, including:

– A large heated freshwater main pool with plenty of loungers and parasols

– A separate heated adults-only saltwater pool with whirlpool, also at the spa centre
– Two heated children’s pools, one featuring small slides, both with nearby baby-changing facilities

Complimentary pool towels are provided, and each sunbathing area is well laid out for space and comfort.

Step outside the gardens and you’re around 50m from Maspalomas Beach, a long, golden sweep backed by the dramatic Maspalomas Sand Dunes. Designated paths through the dunes allow you to explore this Sahara-style landscape safely and responsibly before cooling off in the Atlantic.
