Excellent vacation in Gran Canaria
Pros:

Newly renovated hotel just 1 minute from the ocean. Our room was spacious, modern and cleaned every day. The bed was really comfortable. The food was with huge variety, freshly made and delicious. The cocktails were also excellent in the all in clusive. The staff is also very kind and help you with all your questions like car renting, tickets to Palmitos Park etc. They also organise evening shows and animation team during the day. We will definitely come back to Hotel Sahara Playa!❤️

Good holiday with some inconveniences
Pros:

Great location in close proximity to Maspalomas beach and dunes. The superior rooms are really specious and modern. The dining area was good with a wide selection of food. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The hotel is undergoing a massive renovation which means noisy work throughout the day, making it hard to relax at the pool or on the balcony. This was not mentioned to us at the check-in.The hotel claims to be a 4-star even though facilities are basic: no gym on site, majority of facilities still under construction (jacuzzi, second pool etc.)

Vi kommer helt sikkert igen.
Pros:

Vi boede i "hovedbygningen" og den var rigtig fin. Vi kunne have døren til terrassen stående åben og det var fint. Fin buffet, lækkert område hvor kokke tilbereder dagens kød. Den kinesiske buffet var super lækker. Lokationen er perfekt og når hotellet er bygget færdigt, bliver det super lækkert.

Cons:

Hotellet var under ombygning, da vi var dernede i første uge af Marts, ingen airconditioning, da den ikke var færdig, men det var ikke et problem da der ikke var meget varmt om natten. Lidt musik og fest tæt på, men ikke noget der generet os. SPA og træningsrum var ikke klar ( under ombygning ) - det kunne man godt have informeret om på forhånd.
