More low key and relaxed than its lively neighbour, Playa Del Ingles, Maspalomas is a resort renowned for its spectacular scenery and relaxing atmosphere.

The majority of the buildings are quite spread out, which gives the whole area a scenic quality. The quiet nature of the resort makes it ideals for people who are after a relaxing break away. Families are particularly well catered for as the resort has two separate water parks.

Maspalomas is well known for its famous sand dunes which set it apart from the other resorts. These are rarely crowded which make them ideal to take a day exploring on camelback.

This resort also offers a great deal of sporting facilities with water sports being very popular on the beach. There is also an 18 hole golf course in the center of the resort.

The nightlife here is fairly low key, with only a few bars and clubs. Playa Del Ingles is only a short taxi ride away for those seeking a big night out.

Transfer time from the airport: approx 35 mins
