1Seaside Palm Beach
Gran Canaria, Spain
Food & restaurants: 8 of 9 mentions positive · Service & staff: 8 of 9 mentions positive
Seaside Palm Beach sits a hundred metres from the beach at Maspalomas, beside the dunes and a palm grove, with retro interiors by Alberto Pinto and a spa with a heated saltwater pool.
All Inclusive Premium covers meals, the minibar and a premium beverage package with wine and French champagne by the glass. On the other hand: the à la carte dinner is only included on stays of seven nights or more, and dinner carries a dress code.
Champagne by the glass is served after noon. Premium covers selected drinks during opening hours; Exclusive Beverage Selection items are discounted, not freely included.
Why this rank: Four of six concept criteria confirmed from the hotel's own pages: premium drinks, champagne by the glass and à la carte from seven nights. Eight of nine food mentions in our analyses are positive.
2Paradisus Gran Canaria - All Inclusive
Gran Canaria, Spain
Service & staff: 10 of 10 mentions positive · Condition & cleanliness: 6 of 6 mentions positive
Paradisus Gran Canaria sits on the beach in San Agustín and is run by Meliá as an all-inclusive resort with the TARO spa, several pools and separate spaces for children, teenagers and adults.
The hotel markets Destination Inclusive excursions off the property. What is covered in food and drink beyond the meals is not written on the site.
Why this rank: The second-highest Booking score among the verified hotels and a five-star all-inclusive concept from Meliá's own pages. The hotel publishes no terms for à la carte or drinks, which holds the coverage down.
3Don Gregory by Dunas - Adults Only
Gran Canaria, Spain
The rooms: 15 of 16 mentions positive · Location: 13 of 13 mentions positive
Don Gregory by Dunas is an adults-only hotel (16+) right on the beach in San Agustín, with an infinity pool, pools heated through the winter and a spa.
All Inclusive Select covers buffet meals and à la carte lunch at Greg’s Bar from 12:30 to 17:45. Selected national and international branded drinks bearing the All Inclusive symbol are included; the whole drinks list is not covered. The package runs from 14:00 on arrival day until 12:00 on departure day.
The summer 2026 and winter 2026/27 fact sheets specify one lunch or dinner per week at Las Burras Beachouse from four nights on all-inclusive: a set menu with selected drinks, booking the previous day and subject to availability. Dunas’ general All Inclusive page instead says seven nights, so confirm the condition for your booking. One spa entry per person per stay is included from seven nights. The summer sheet gives Greg’s Bar hours as 10:30–24:00; the winter sheet says 10:00–23:45 but also states that package drinks are available until 24:00. Check the winter closing time locally. This is not round-the-clock service.
Why this rank: All Inclusive Select has published terms for à la carte lunch and selected international branded drinks. All nine food mentions in our analyses are positive. Service has fixed hours, and the Las Burras meal has specific stay conditions.
4H10 Playa Meloneras Horizons Collection
Gran Canaria, Spain
Food & restaurants: 21 of 22 mentions positive · Service & staff: 19 of 19 mentions positive
H10 Playa Meloneras Horizons Collection sits on the seafront in Meloneras with an infinity pool, a chill-out terrace and the Despacio Spa.
All-inclusive covers branded drinks, cocktails and snacks, and a buffet dinner can be swapped for à la carte at La Brasserie, Il Trastevere or Sakura for every seven nights, booked in advance.
The dinner exchange requires advance booking and availability. Sakura admits guests aged 12 and over; extra à la carte visits are discounted, not unlimited.
Why this rank: Both premium drinks and à la carte confirmed from the hotel's own site, and 21 of 22 food mentions in our analyses are positive. The buffet-for-à la carte swap applies once per seven nights.
5Hotel Riu Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria, Spain
Hotel Riu Gran Canaria sits directly on the beach in Maspalomas with six pools, one of them an adults-only infinity pool, a spa and RIU Land for children.
The concept is 24-hour all-inclusive, and the hotel's own site lists both buffet and à la carte restaurants inside the package. It is a big, lively resort with RIU Party and entertainment every evening.
Why this rank: Riu confirms snacks and drinks around the clock and à la carte within the package. Our own review base for the hotel is still empty, so the guest score rests on Booking and Google.
6Seaside Sandy Beach
Gran Canaria, Spain
Service & staff: 9 of 9 mentions positive · The rooms: 8 of 9 mentions positive
Seaside Sandy Beach sits in Playa del Inglés, a short walk from the beach, run by the same chain as Palm Beach with a spa, tennis and bike hire.
All-inclusive runs from eleven to eleven, twelve hours a day, and the hotel lists every meal and serving time on its own page — breakfast 8 to 10.30, lunch 1 to 3.30, dinner 6 to 9.45.
Why this rank: The hotel publishes the whole package with opening times, which is unusually clear, but eleven to eleven leaves the night outside. All seven food mentions in our analyses are positive.
7Bull Costa Canaria & Spa - Only Adults
Gran Canaria, Spain
Food & restaurants: 6 of 6 mentions positive · Location: 6 of 6 mentions positive
Bull Costa Canaria & Spa is an adults-only hotel in San Agustín, steps from the beach and the promenade.
The hotel’s own site says Don Miguel, serving à la carte dishes by the pool, and Don Pepe pizzeria are included at no extra charge for all-inclusive guests. These are two different dining venues; this does not mean two unlimited à la carte dinners. The reviewed pages do not specify reservation requirements, opening hours or visit allowances.
Why this rank: The spa is included even on half board, and the hotel includes Don Miguel and Don Pepe pizzeria for all-inclusive guests. All six food mentions in our analyses are positive, although its Booking review sample is smaller than several others in the selection.
8Hotel Riu Palace Palmeras - All Inclusive
Gran Canaria, Spain
Service & staff: 14 of 14 mentions positive · Condition & cleanliness: 9 of 9 mentions positive
Hotel Riu Palace Palmeras sits a few hundred metres from the beach in Playa del Inglés, surrounded by gardens, and belongs to Riu's Palace tier.
Riu advertises 24-hour all-inclusive. The hotel page reviewed does not specify which food options are available overnight.
Why this rank: Round-the-clock service confirmed from Riu's own site, and all eight food mentions in our analyses are positive. Terms for à la carte and premium drinks are not published.
9Gloria Palace Amadores Thalasso & Hotel
Gran Canaria, Spain
Service & staff: 84 of 85 mentions positive · The rooms: 67 of 67 mentions positive
Gloria Palace Amadores sits on the cliff above Amadores beach in Mogán, with a thalasso centre and views over the Atlantic.
All-Inclusive Premium includes selected premium drinks from 10:00 to 01:00 in designated hotel bars. Table service follows restaurant and bar opening hours; meals have separate times and snack service ends at 18:30. The position means lifts and slopes down to the beach.
Why this rank: Premium drinks and the package's exact hours confirmed from the hotel's own site. All-inclusive ending at one in the morning and no published à la carte terms hold the score down, despite a broad review base.
10Gloria Palace Royal Hotel & Spa
Gran Canaria, Spain
Gloria Palace Royal Hotel & Spa sits in Amadores in Mogán, with a spa and pools terraced down towards the sea.
All-Inclusive Premium includes selected premium drinks from 10:00 to 01:00 in designated hotel bars. Table service follows restaurant and bar opening hours; meals have separate times and snack service ends at 18:30. The à la carte restaurant Kaia is not included, but guests get a 20 per cent discount there — the hotel states both on its own page.
Why this rank: The most clearly published concept in the selection: the hotel lists drinks, hours, discounts and what falls outside. That the à la carte restaurant Kaia sits outside the package is stated openly.
11Barceló Margaritas Royal Level - Adults Only
Gran Canaria, Spain
Service & staff: 10 of 11 mentions positive · Food & restaurants: 7 of 8 mentions positive
Barceló Margaritas Royal Level is the adults-only wing of a larger family hotel in Playa del Inglés, with its own rooms, pool and buffet restaurant.
The all-inclusive programme covers meals, snacks, soft drinks and entertainment. Guests mention an à la carte lunch and branded drinks, and a free bus runs down to the beach.
Why this rank: The adults-only wing has its own pool and restaurant, and guests describe an à la carte lunch inside the package. The hotel's published terms say nothing about drinks or hours.
12HL Suitehotel Playa del Inglés - Adults Only
Gran Canaria, Spain
Service & staff: 15 of 17 mentions positive · Food & restaurants: 11 of 12 mentions positive
HL Suitehotel Playa del Inglés is an adults-only hotel with split-level suites, a couple of blocks from the Yumbo Centre.
It is sold with all-inclusive as a board basis, but publishes neither hours nor contents. The setting is the town rather than the beach: the sand is a walk away.
Why this rank: All-inclusive can be confirmed as a board basis, but the hotel publishes no terms at all, which gives it the lowest coverage among the verified hotels. Eleven of twelve food mentions in our analyses are positive.
13Servatur Puerto Azul
Gran Canaria, Spain
Food & restaurants: 9 of 9 mentions positive · Service & staff: 7 of 9 mentions positive
Servatur Puerto Azul sits on the cliff between Amadores and Puerto Rico, fully renovated, with 493 rooms, five pools, an adults-only area and a splash zone with slides.
All Inclusive+ includes premium drinks. Cold snacks and ice cream are included around the clock. Standard all-inclusive has self-service drinks 24/7; lobby-bar alcohol service is listed as 18:30–23:00.
Why this rank: The hotel’s own site confirms All Inclusive+ with premium drinks. Cold snacks and ice cream are included around the clock. The Google rating of 4.2 pulls the guest score down clearly.
14MUR Hotel Neptuno - Adults Only
Gran Canaria, Spain
Service & staff: 11 of 11 mentions positive · Food & restaurants: 9 of 10 mentions positive
MUR Hotel Neptuno is an adults-only hotel (16+) next to the Yumbo Centre, with 166 refurbished rooms, a spa with a Turkish bath and a gym open around the clock.
The pool is heated from October to April, and the hotel makes a point of serving all-inclusive without a wristband. The beach is about 900 metres away.
Why this rank: All-inclusive confirmed from the hotel's own site, which also states that the package is served without a wristband. No other terms are published, and the beach is a walk away.
15Grupotel Orquidea
Gran Canaria, Spain
Food & restaurants: 9 of 9 mentions positive · Service & staff: 7 of 7 mentions positive
Grupotel Orquidea sits on the sea in Bahía Feliz, ten minutes from the airport, with an indoor pool, an outdoor pool, a spa and a tennis court.
Rooms can be booked with breakfast, half board or all-inclusive. The area is windy — which is why the surfers gather here — and the beach is rocky rather than sandy.
Why this rank: All-inclusive is one of three board options according to the hotel's own site, and all nine food mentions in our analyses are positive. No terms beyond the board basis are published.
16Gloria Palace San Agustin
Gran Canaria, Spain
Food & restaurants: 45 of 48 mentions positive · The rooms: 41 of 42 mentions positive
Gloria Palace San Agustín Thalasso & Hotel sits above the beach in San Agustín with what the chain calls Europe's largest thalasso centre, and a rooftop restaurant with sea views.
All-Inclusive Premium includes selected premium drinks from 10:00 to 01:00 in designated hotel bars. Table service follows restaurant and bar opening hours; meals have separate times and snack service ends at 18:30. The Gorbea restaurant sits outside the package but carries a 20 per cent discount.
Why this rank: The same clearly published Gloria concept as its sister hotels, but the lowest Google rating in the selection (4.2 from more than 7,000 reviews) pulls the guest score down the furthest.
How we ranked the hotels
This ranking belongs to the theme and is separate from the general luxury order on the destination page. It rests on three parts. The guest rating on Booking and Google counts 55 per cent, weighted by how many reviews sit behind it, so a score from a handful of guests is pulled towards the island average. Verified concept facts count 30 per cent: is all-inclusive sold at all, is à la carte included, are premium drinks included, is there a stated ultra or premium tier, is food or drink available around the clock within the package, and do guests praise the food in our own review analyses. Star class counts 15 per cent.
Unconfirmed facts receive a small share of the points for a confirmed yes; a confirmed no earns no points. Coverage shows how much of the criteria could be substantiated. The score is used for sorting and is not shown as a guest rating.
Two things are worth knowing about the ratings here. Gran Canaria's hotels score consistently lower on Google than on Booking, and that gap feeds through into the guest score. And the hotels we added most recently have a narrower review base in our own analyses, because those analyses rest on reviews we harvest ourselves.
We have read the hotels' own concept pages, noted the exact wording and the date we checked, and counted the guest reviews.
This time we started outside our own database: we screened Booking's full list of four- and five-star hotels on Gran Canaria that sell all-inclusive, and added the strongest candidates we were missing. Sixteen hotels meet three conditions at once: at least 8.5 on Booking from at least 100 reviews, four or five stars, and an all-inclusive concept we could verify. The threshold is lower than in our Turkish and Greek lists for a simple reason: Gran Canaria's all-inclusive field sits lower. Only two of the hotels reach 9.0 on Booking.
Maspalomas, Playa del Inglés or Puerto Rico — where should you stay?
Maspalomas and Meloneras (Seaside Palm Beach, H10 Playa Meloneras Horizons, Riu Gran Canaria) sit by the dunes and the island's widest beach, with golf courses and a quieter promenade. It is the most expensive part of the south and the one with the most five-star hotels.
Playa del Inglés (Riu Palace Palmeras, Seaside Sandy Beach, Barceló Margaritas Royal Level, HL Suitehotel, MUR Neptuno) is the busiest area on the island, built around the Yumbo Centre with its bars, shops and nightlife. It holds the most adults-only hotels and the shortest walks between hotel and restaurant.
San Agustín and Bahía Feliz (Paradisus, Don Gregory, Gloria Palace San Agustín, Grupotel Orquidea) lie east of Playa del Inglés, closer to the airport and windier. The beaches are smaller and darker in colour, and the atmosphere is calmer.
Puerto Rico, Amadores and Mogán (Servatur Puerto Azul, Gloria Palace Amadores) sit furthest south-west, on cliffs above small bays. This is the sunniest corner of the island and the steepest to walk, and the airport is 45 to 60 minutes away.
Hotels we reviewed but left out
Several of Gran Canaria's best-known hotels are missing from this selection. An unverified all-inclusive package is not the same as a confirmed absence of one.
- Lopesan Costa Meloneras, Villa del Conde and Baobab — Lopesan's three large resorts in Meloneras run half-board concepts. They belong in our luxury selection. They do not, however, belong in this list.
- Riu Palace Maspalomas — Booking 9.1 from 1,520 reviews. This is an adults-only hotel; RIU's official description specifies half-board.
- Club Maspalomas Suites & Spa — Booking 9.4. An all-inclusive package was not confirmed for this selection.
- Santa Catalina, Bohemia Suites & Spa and Grand Hotel Residencia — the island's three most lavish houses sell breakfast or half board. Grand Hotel Residencia also has only 63 Booking reviews, well under our threshold of 100.
- Cordial Mogán Playa, Hotel Faro, Corallium Beach and Bull Vital Suites — all above 8.5 on Booking, but none of them publishes an all-inclusive concept on its own site.
A hotel's absence is not a judgment of its quality. Inclusion in this list requires a verified all-inclusive package and the stated rating and review-count thresholds.
