Holiday Watchdog: Meloneras Reviews
Major plans for this new area located to the west of Maspalomas. The lighthouse at Faro splits Meloneras from Maspalomas but the two are side-by-side. Definitely THE posh part of Maspalomas and neighbour to Playa del Ingles, lots of hotels, bungalows and villas already here with lots more on the way and all tend to be 4 or 5 star. The Costa Meloneras is a good example, 4 star, 1,500 rooms and everything you'd expect to find in a town back home you'll find in the grounds here, including it's very own beach within the complex itself.
There's a main commercial centre already finished with a nice choice of stylish restaurants, bars, cafes. The shopping here is the designer-label type. More shops are almost finished in various buildings around the area. Of course, being that close to Maspalomas you're walking distance from 8km of golden-sand beach and there's several smaller coves and another of those endless promenades here too.
The funny looking huge building that looks like the roof is sliding off is the Maspalomas Congress centre. Pretty boring stuff, business meetings and so on for the most part but watch out for the odd, public exhibition and better still, every month or two there's a very good club night on there, invited guest DJs and space for a couple of thousand.
Over the next several months, lots more top-class complexes will appear along with a second golf course for the area, a new beach with marina, plenty of shopping, residential areas, restaurants and lots of more dead posh stuff.
