"The Grand Hotel Residencia enjoys a prime location on the coast of Gran Canaria, sitting under leafy palms just a few minutes’ walk away from the sandy beach of Maspalomas. Attractive rooms come in sky blue shades with a mix of prints and textiles, dark wood four poster beds, and the highlight, balconies surrounded by lush greenery. The restaurant serves a Mediterranean-inspired menu with a particular focus on local ingredients; the fruit and vegetables for instance come from a nearby finca on the island. There’s also a pool bar for tapas, and in the evening, a piano bar for live music and aperitifs. The slow living, seaside experience is enhanced with some spa time, or for a more serious approach to wellbeing, the hotel can even organize physiotherapy and medical check-ups for a complete reset. Golfers will also find three of the island’s six courses close by the hotel, and plenty of other sports take place on property, including tennis, yoga, and Tai Chi." - Tablet Hotels
