Gran Canaria hotel guide. Barcelo hotel in Gran Canaria, Canary Islands

"I have stayed at Sanom Beach before, so knew that I was returning to somewhere special. It's beautiful, the rooms are well-appointed, the shower is great, everything works well. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's a little haven of tranquilty, but very close to the Yumbo Centre with its restaurants, bars, drag shows, and venues catering to the wilder side. The pool is great, and it never got too busy. There are two outdoor jacuzzis and a number of canopied double sun beds in white leather. The bar is stylish with a good range of excellent cocktails. There is even a gym. It's tiny, but enough. I was fortunate in that I had that place to myself on my visits, but I noticed three people managing to work out at the same time in it on the day I was leaving, and it saved me from the time and effort (and expense) of signing up for a week at one of the nearby gyms. I would definitely consider visiting again."

"Staff were very friendly and helpful, view was amazing, hotel nice and clean, spacious rooms, variety of foods and amazing pool overlooking the beach. Very nice holiday"

"Handy location for beach and good bus service nearby. Rooms clean and quirky with glasd bathroom . Bed very comy. Could be a bit noisy with traffic. Rooftop area nice to relax. Shame bar not open."
