Club Primavera Playa del Ingles Canary Islands

If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing break from the norm set along a sub-tropical beach close to all amenities, a week at Club Primavera won’t disappoint. Set in the heart of the popular tourism resort of Playa del Ingles, yet untroubled by late-night, noisy revels, this small resort offers 16 one-bedroom bungalows prettily set just a stone’s throw from the beach and the magnificent sand dunes at Maspalomas.

Lovely landscaped gardens enclose the units with their roof terraces, a small, salt-water swimming pool and an onsite restaurant, and there’s a choice of more beachside eateries a step away along the sands. Each timeshare unit sleeps up to four persons, and a babysitting service ensures parents have time to themselves.

Online reviews from regular and first-time visitors stress the peacefulness of the little complex and its security at night. Puerto Rico harbour with its local eateries gets a positive mention, and the world-famous golden Maspalomas sand dunes just outside the complex are a major plus.

For lively nightlife and shopping opportunities, the centre of Playa del Ingles is a short drive or bus trip away. It’s Spain’s largest tourism complex, offering extra-wide beaches, English pubs, fish ‘n chip restaurants, dance clubs and an endless selection of bars and other all-night entertainment haunts. Street bazaars are the fun places to shop, and the two malls are crammed with fashion boutiques.
