Overview

 
Set among palm trees and flower-filled gardens, Maspalomas Resort By Dunas is a relaxed, low-rise haven made up entirely of bungalow-style suites.

Think whitewashed bungalows, swaying palms and meandering pools: Maspalomas Resort By Dunas feels more like a Canarian village than a hotel. Families get roomy, well-equipped bungalows with kitchenettes, hotel-style All Inclusive dining, and a choice of pools plus a splash park – all in a peaceful spot that’s still just a short hop from Maspalomas dunes, Holiday World and Meloneras’ seafront promenade.

Set in a calm corner of Maspalomas yet handy for the dunes, golf and Meloneras, it’s around 35 minutes from Gran Canaria Airport (LPA). See more Canary Islands holidays.

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Water babies are spoilt for choice: the resort has three outdoor freshwater pools, including a children’s pool and a main pool with an integrated kids’ section. In the cooler months, the pools are usually heated (normally from 1 November to 30 April), and all come with loungers and parasols in dedicated sunbathing areas.

A colourful splash park keeps younger guests entertained with a tipping water bucket, water cannons, water dome, buckets and spouts, typically open between 10:00 and 18:00 (age/height restrictions may apply). Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit.

The sweeping sands and Sahara-style dunes of Maspalomas are around 2km away – close enough for easy beach days, but far enough to keep the resort peaceful.

Spa, sports & wellness


Stay active in the on-site gym (minimum age 16), equipped with cardio machines and a free-weights area and typically open 08:00–20:00. The entertainment team runs activities like aerobics, aqua aerobics, darts, pétanque, table tennis and small team games. There’s also a pool table for a small local charge.

Cyclists are well catered for with dedicated cycle services including bike hire, route information, secure storage, cleaning area and repair/maintenance facilities – a great base if you’re exploring Gran Canaria on two wheels.

Elsewhere, you’ll find a handy on-site mini-market for essentials, plus a 24-hour reception offering concierge-style assistance, luggage storage and hire of useful items such as kettles, fans, bottle warmers, pushchairs and wheelchairs (local charges may apply).

Food & drink

All meals are taken in the main buffet restaurant, where you’ll find a relaxed, family-friendly set-up and show-cooking stations at breakfast, lunch and dinner. Expect an international mix with Canarian touches and plenty of choice for children, plus highchairs and microwaves to make family mealtimes easier. A smart-casual dress code applies in the evenings (no beachwear; long trousers requested for gentlemen).

For drinks, there are two bars: the Tropical Pool Bar for daytime refreshments and snacks by the water, and the “El Faro Night Club” disco bar, open into the evening for cocktails and entertainment. Availability, opening times, supplements and reservation requirements can vary by season and board basis – always check the latest details on arrival. What All Inclusive typically includes.
