The resort prides itself on offering seven unique, experience-driven restaurants, each with its own distinct atmosphere, style, and cuisine. Ranging from the elegant and refined Sens Kitchen Patio Garden, where gourmet dinners are the order of the day, to the casual Sidecar, which delights guests with its creative tapas and cocktail pairings, there’s ample choice for every discerning palette.

What’s the neighbourhood scene like?

In stark contrast to the bustling night life of the larger cities in Gran Canaria, the surrounding environment of the resort offers a gentler, calmer aura that underscores its name. Enclaved by the majestic beauty of rolling hills, the resort provides a spectacular vista that many have likened to a watercolor painting coming alive each dawn.

Venturing out from this Gran Canaria resort, visitors often find intrigue in the sleepy village of Salobre. Its narrow serpentine lanes, quaint local cafes and the warm gestures of the local population indeed offer a severance from the mainstream. Only a short journey away lies the sweeping sandy Gran Canaria beaches of Maspalomas, famed for their iconic sand dunes as much as for the pulsating azure waves that wash up on their shores. The neighborhood gives a true taste of life on this beautiful island, presenting a perspective nuanced enough to be richly satisfying yet immersive.
