Behind a white single-storey house in Ingenio, the garden is yours alone: a private saltwater pool, heated and open all year, set into a green lawn with the hills in view beyond the fence. Steps lead down into the water at one end, and after dark the underwater lights turn the tiles a bright turquoise.
The main pool is a big freshwater lagoon that curves through a garden of tall palms, heated through the cooler months. Alongside it sit two smaller adults-only pools in the spa: a 30°C saltwater pool with underwater massage jets and a brine pool kept at 30 to 33°C all year, with a hot tub corner. Children get their own pair: a shallow baby pool and a kids' pool with a slide, both heated.
Palm Oasis is built around water. Two outdoor pools wind through a tropical garden of palms and volcanic rock, with waterfalls, hot tubs tucked into the rocks and a slide for the kids. The pools are heated in winter, the main one is open all year with a shallow end for easing in, and there's a separate children's pool.
Two outdoor pools sit in the palm garden between the resort and the sea near Arguineguín: a large free-form freshwater pool and, right beside it, a smaller saltwater pool that's heated and open all year. A shallow end makes easing in simple, and children get their own pool area.
Two infinity pools sit at the sea end of the garden, their edges lined up with the Atlantic and their shallow ledges set with submerged loungers. Both are for adults only. Further back are three more outdoor pools, one with a curved shallow shelf, plus a children's pool, six in all, and the pools are heated in winter.
Every villa at Opal has its own pool, curved into a lawn right in front of floor-to-ceiling glass, so from the water you look straight back into the living room. Pale stone edges the pool, the villas are faced in dark volcanic stone and orange render, and bare hills rise behind the garden walls.
Stone terraces step down the cliff above Amadores Bay, and on one of them an infinity pool runs straight out towards the Atlantic. It's one of two adult pools, and the one that can be heated. Two freshwater children's pools sit on the terraces too, and a round whirlpool hides below the red rock of the cliff.
Six outdoor pools spread through the gardens of this resort by the sea in Meloneras. The one to find first is the infinity pool, its edge running out towards the Atlantic. Elsewhere there's a large lagoon-style main pool below the resort's twin church towers, a saltwater pool, a plunge pool and a kids' pool, plus a sandy beach area set among the palms.
Below the bare brown mountains of the Mogán valley, the resort wraps around its pool garden: two outdoor pools, each with a hot tub, and a separate children's pool. The main pool is saltwater, heated and open all year, with a shallow end for easing in.
Water runs right through Lopesan Baobab's tropical garden. Nine pools wind past palms, rock grottoes and wooden footbridges, two of them for children, and the biggest, Río & Mungo, covers more than 2,000 m². The kids' pool has a water slide and a shallow end, and the heated pool stays open all year, which counts in a Gran Canaria winter.
