A great family-friendly hotel is the Hotel Paradise Lago Taurito in Playa Taurito on the island of Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands, Spain. It has a wonderful beachfront location and there is a fun waterpark located nearby. Some say this hotel has one of the best spots in town. For those looking to explore further the centre of Puerto Rico is a short taxi ride away. There are lots of restaurants, shops and another wonderful beach plus a choice of boat trips. The hotel is in a quiet setting with just a handful of elegant hotels stacked up the sides of rugged volcanic cliffs.
Highlights
Located between the hotel and the beach is the hotel’s pool. It is flanked by palm trees and a sun terrace with sunbeds and parasols. Right next to this pool is a kid’s pool and a pirate ship and the nearby saltwater waterpark has multiple slides, some of which have height restrictions.
