Lopesan Costa Meloneras Resort & Spa

With 1,136 rooms spread across sympathetically designed low-rise buildings, Lopesan Costa Meloneras manages to feel spacious despite its size. The resort sits right on the edge of Meloneras beach, with the famous lighthouse anchoring the skyline and the Atlantic stretching out beyond.

Every room is finished with marble bathrooms, air conditioning, satellite TV and either a balcony or terrace, giving you somewhere to sit with a coffee before heading out to the course or to dry off your gear after a round. The standard rooms cover the basics you want on a golf break, with enough space to store clubs without tripping over them and a layout that works well for couples or friends sharing.

For golfers travelling in groups or couples marking a milestone trip, the junior suites and full suites step things up with more space, upgraded furnishings and that VIP treatment you'd expect from a 5-star property. The extra room makes a difference on longer stays, particularly if you're the type who likes to spread out or if you've brought along non-golfing partners who want a bit more comfort while you're out playing.

The dining setup covers serious ground. Multiple restaurants and themed buffet stations mean you can mix things up across your stay, from local Canarian specialities to international dishes that cater to every taste. The buffet is particularly handy for golfers, especially if you've got early tee times and need a proper breakfast before heading out. Most dining areas look out over the resort's lush gardens or towards the ocean, so the setting matches the quality of the food.

For those with later starts or anyone who wants to make an evening of it, the à la carte options are there when you want to slow things down and enjoy a longer meal. The food is well executed, portions are generous, and there's enough variety to keep everyone happy across a week-long stay, even if you've got fussy eaters or specific dietary needs in the group.

When it comes to drinks, you've got two main bars, four pool bars and a dedicated beer bar to choose from, so you're never far from a cold one after 18 holes. The pool bars are dotted around the resort, which means you can grab a drink without trekking back to your room or the main lobby, and the beer bar is a relaxed spot to debrief the round with your group.

The resort's size means there's always something happening, whether that's live entertainment in the evenings or simply finding a quiet corner by the pool. It's a well-run, comfortable base that handles groups and couples equally well, with enough variety in dining and facilities to keep everyone happy. The walk to Meloneras Golf is genuinely short, so you can be on the first tee within minutes of leaving your room, and return transfers to Gran Canaria Airport (approximately 35km away) can be arranged as part of many packages.
