LIVVO Lago Taurito & Waterpark

Nestled on a hillside on the southwest coast of Gran Canaria, just a few steps away from the beach, this hotel ticks all the boxes for a family-friendly getaway with a balance of leisure and relaxation.

As well as having the beach right on your doorstep and an outdoor pool to cool off in, you’ll have access to the aqua park, which features an array of exhilarating slides for adults and children alike. Little ones will also be in their element at the kids’ club, where they can get involved in a whole host of activities, and there’s plenty of daily entertainment on offer for grown ups, too. 

Yearning for some peace and quiet? Why not treat yourself to some pampering time over at the spa (extra charge), where you’ll find a sauna, a Jacuzzi, a Turkish bath and treatment rooms where you can indulge in reinvigorating massages. If you’re in the mood for a workout, meanwhile, be sure to check out the well-equipped on-site gym. 

Expect a varied selection of dishes at the buffet restaurant, which hosts themed nights throughout the week and has live cooking stations where you can watch the chefs in action. The poolside bar and the night bar keep the drinks flowing throughout the day – so whether you’re after a morning coffee or an afternoon cocktail, you won’t have to venture far.
