The pool
Why this pool made the list
High on the hillside above Puerto Rico, the rooftop pool's infinity edge lines up with the Atlantic, and from the loungers you look straight down on the marina and the bay. Water spouts pour from the stone wall at the back into the pool. It's heated and open all year, with a pool bar for drinks and light lunches.
This is a small place, 33 suites in all. If you want water to yourself, the Elite suites come with their own heated plunge pool on the terrace, and others have a private hot tub. One thing to know before you book: the resort has a designated naturist sunbathing zone.

The stay
Beyond the pool
Grand Horizon is on Avenida Roque del Este, high on the hillside above Puerto Rico de Gran Canaria. Playa de Puerto Rico is about 300 m away as the crow flies, but around a 15-minute walk, and the way back is uphill: a lot of guests take a taxi for the return.
Every suite has a private terrace, most of them facing the ocean, and a full kitchen with an oven, a dishwasher and a washing machine. A buffet breakfast is served daily. There's also an outdoor gym looking over the bay, a massage area and free parking.
It's built for couples and quiet stays rather than families: children over 5 are welcome, but the resort describes itself as adults-focused. Check-in is self-service, with reception handled by WhatsApp or phone. Small pets up to 5 kg are allowed (charges may apply), and Gran Canaria Airport is 45 km away.

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.
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.
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.
