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.

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.
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.
