Gran Canaria Hotels in March
Riu Palace Maspalomas
Since it only has four floors, tourists might expect the views from Riu Palace Maspalomas in Playa del Ingles to be less than ideal, but that is not so. In fact, the view from most rooms is actually very good. In addition to this pleasant surprise, the naturally occurring sand dunes are also visible from most rooms.
It's not incredibly well prepared for children and tends to suit older couples. Many people choose the half board option and report that it is excellent value, especially because of the breakfast buffet.
Atlantic Beach Club
For the best value in Gran Canaria, the Atlantic Beach Club is a modern and affordable resort on the Playa del Ingles. This resort has something for everyone, including quick access to the beach, balconies and a pool for guests to enjoy. One common compliment is that this hotel is close to nighttime festivities but removed enough so you can get restful sleep at night.
