Meloneras, Playa del inglés, Maspalomas and San Agustin are all villages within the larger town of San Bartolomé. They’re all connected by beach. When you pass the lighthouse it’s the beginning of Maspalomas Beach. Meloneras is only about 15 years old and hence physically nicer, but it’s all hotels and not many apartments and bungalows.
Hi Linz, yuppers I could see you fitting in well there but 2 weeks would be a bit much unless you hired a car or liked bus/taxi to get you out and about, oh and deep pockets 😎 Cheers DougT
@@douglasthompson296 Hi again Doug, thanks for the info. Yes, I used to like hiring a car for the duration of a holiday and then I could get out and about exploring other areas, but I’ve heard the rental prices now are ridiculous.
Been coming here simce 2007..love it..its alot quietier than other resorts and tenerife etc..but if you just have a week of work amd want to chill its great!
Another lovely video wee Caoimhin and think most holiday destinations have their high end areas to go with usual spots that have never been updated but you give us that exact information so a credit to you. I knew perfectly what you meant by mobbed being jammed but you could also mobbed by their prices 😀😀 until this evening have a lovely day
Two weeks in Maspalomas for me in December! If you go back in December, make sure to visit the Christmas sand sculptures on Las Canteras beach in Las Palmas, they are outstanding. ( And it’s MelonEras😂)
Well wee Kev.I.N, I have to say I'm surprised how the Meloneras area has developed into a resort of its own. I now realise why some friends have now started to visit there. Cheers DougT
Hi Kev. Great to see this went here first time at Easter!! Done a few videos myself on my channel and of Caybeach Hotel which is always one of cheapest on Jet2!!! Get to Jim's camping chairs against wall on beach at the end!!👍
The palocortado outside area to the right of the main restaurant is family friendly and the food is really good (for a treat). You can walk into both the Lopesan Melonares and the Riu Melonares (the 5 star one) and sit to enjoy the live entertainment without getting stopped by security. The Riu has a touch-screen board in reception which shows you all the weeks live shows. The best live entertainment is inside the Riu 4-star but you can't walk in as its AI. The live cabaret show outside Cafe Del Mar is visible after dark from outside the venue and well worth a quick film.
I would rather go to Carribean than 4/5 star in Meloneras. Not much difference in price. Kevin my sister wants to know if you have plans to make videos in Turkey? Thanx
Good stuff, my sis had disappointing experience her first time in Turkey- Side, said she wont be back. This put me off, I've never been to Turkey. Look forward to your videos. Thanx
Get a wee huwai dongle. You be shocked how good they are everywhere. Size of a small bar of soap. 1/4 of the wieght.just needs youre simm and youre sorted

@@ScotsmaninTenerife Gutted I missed you was there this time last week. Off to Tenerife in 5 weeks though so theres light at the end of the tunnel Kev. Will be hitting all the Irish bars big style lol 🤣🍺🍺🍺🍺
