Lopesan Baobab Resort

A large African-themed resort on the Meloneras coast in Gran Canaria, set in landscaped gardens with a baobab tree and many pools. It has a lazy river, a buffet and attentive staff, but rooms are dated, children make it noisy and sunbeds are crowded.

  • African-themed gardens and waterfalls
  • Akara and Pili Pili restaurants

Good to know

  • Many children, so noise is common
  • Sunbeds often reserved with towels early
  • Drink prices are high
