Meloneras, Gran Canaria, Spain
Atlantic infinity pool and winter-heated pools in Meloneras.
Why it made the list
The pool
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 open all year, and in winter three of the pools and the kids' pool are heated. Loungers and umbrellas are free, and the Azotea pool bar keeps things easy through the afternoon. For a warmer, slower swim, the Corallium Thalasso spa on the sea front adds a flotation pool and a hydrothermal circuit at extra cost. Not every pool is heated, though: in January, head for the heated ones.

The stay
Lopesan Villa del Conde is laid out like a Canarian village, with stone streets, courtyards and its own church, by the sea in Meloneras in the south of Gran Canaria. The Maspalomas dunes nature reserve starts about 800 m away, and the Meloneras shops and convention centre are a short walk.
This is a big resort: 561 rooms, each with a balcony or terrace. Dining runs from the La Plaza buffet to the Alpendre grill, OVO and an Italian restaurant, with the Patio Café for cakes and crêpes, and there's a kids' club and evening entertainment. The 1,200 m² Corallium Thalasso spa sits on the sea front with Turkish baths and a sauna.
Worth knowing: cots and extra beds aren't available, and children from 13 pay the adult rate.
Good to know
Three of the pools and the kids' pool are heated in winter. The others are not, so pick the heated ones for a warm swim from December to February.
Yes. The resort and its main pool operate all year round.
The flotation pool and hydrothermal circuit are part of the Corallium Thalasso spa and cost extra, except for one circuit per person included with the resort's Unique rooms.

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.
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.
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.
