Playa Del Ingles Reviews
|
Playa del Ingles, Gran Canaria's is the island's largest holiday resort, the second largest resort of its kind in Europe in fact (after Benidorm). It's a place to get lost in, an ideal resort for you if you're travelling with a group of friends perhaps, or a couple looking for plenty of action by night after days lazing on the beach or by the pool. During the summer holiday period of July and August it's very much the ideal place for "young fun" or "18-30" style holidays. Known for its beach and nightlife, it proves ideal for the younger crowd during the summer. For the rest of the year it proves popular with everyone, all ages and all nationalities. The mix of people is mainly made up of German and English but the mix of Scandinavian, Dutch and other European nationalities is very much present too.
Unlike Puerto Rico, there's no mountains to conquer in Playa del Ingles. Very much built on one level with major bus routes passing through town, it's an easy place to get around. Maybe the hardest journey you'll have to make is from your apartment or hotel to the beach. The bus or cab only goes so far and from there, a large part of the resort is a one mile walk from the sea. Doesn't sound too bad?, well it's across sand dunes. Obviously, choose your footwear wisely before you set off on what's more of a daily pilgrimage for hundreds of people staying in Playa. Hundreds go the longer way round, walking down to the nearest part of beach and then along the seafront until they've found their favourite spot.
