Enjoyed a great week at this lovely hotel. Our ‘Reserve’ room was very well equipped and exceedingly quiet. The hotel is situated on a large spacious plot on the seafront. The extensive walkway in front of the hotel is a great way to burn off some calories. A wide range of eating options are on offer. We particularly the relaxing breakfast in the ‘Reserve’ area. A wonderful tranquil location to start the day. The meal at Pesata was truly outstanding particularly when accompanied by the wine pairing, which is certainly worth the addition charge. Only disappointment as far as food is concerned was the Gastro Hall where the hot food was often tepid at best! On three nights of our stay there was live music at Lemon Fish, firstly a saxophonist and the other two times guitarists. All were very good and it’s a great venue to enjoy music whilst watching the sunset. An additional bonus was the inclusion of Destination Experiences. The only other slight downside was that it was rather difficult to convince the sales staff that we were in no way intrusted in attending a Melia Circle presentation. Sad that staff at this first class establishment have to undertake this rather demeaning activity. Apart from this the staff were excellent and did everything to ensure our stay was memorable.

“Paradise in Gran Canaria”

This resort was absolutely beautiful. It has access to the beach, but also has beautiful large pools. The entertainment was first class. The food was wonderful as was the service.

We’ve just got home after a wonderful week at Paradisus by Meliá, Gran Canaria. As anxious first time parents, nervous about travelling with a 15 week old baby, our nerves were quickly put to rest as soon as we arrived. The staff at the hotel were so welcoming and had everything we needed to hand too, including a baby bath, travel cot, and bottle sterilising machine (it saved us packing more things!) As well as beautiful clean rooms and an all round stunning hotel, we are also both vegan and were well catered for. The guest experience team and waiting staff did everything they could to make sure we were well fed for the week, which we were, a little too much if anything! There are however, a few things that would have been nice. • Drinks service at the pool, to save us going up to the bar every time. • Better sea view in the premium ocean view bedrooms (we were on the second floor, so palm trees and the hotel grounds were blocking the sea) • More creativity when it came to our meals. Although the chefs provided us with most things we asked for, some dishes could have been better. For example, we asked for tofu bao buns, we which got, but it would have been nice if they added some grated carrot, spring onions, even sauce. It very much felt like we had to request our food for the week, but it would have been nice to have some of the chefs recommendations on occasions too! Apart from that, I would whole heartedly recommend staying at this hotel and we look forward to visiting again in the future.
