We chose Sol Barbacán because of its excellent reviews, especially about the entertainment team—and they are absolutely deserved! The hotel has a wonderful atmosphere and beautiful swimming pools, making it a great place to relax and enjoy your holiday. Carlos, Naira, and Miriam are fantastic entertainers: friendly, energetic, and incredibly enthusiastic. They organize fun activities for all ages, involve everyone without being pushy, and create a warm, lively atmosphere every day. The hotel is also in a great location, close to the city, with plenty of things to do and discover nearby. There is always something to enjoy! Taxis to the beach are also very affordable, costing around €6–7. Their passion and positive energy have made our holiday even more enjoyable. We highly recommend Sol Barbacán, especially for its outstanding entertainment team! We would definitely come back.

We have just arrived back home from a lovely stay at Sol Barbican (28th June - 9th July), we were on the 3rd floor and had the 1 bedroom apartment, it was spacious and clean, the aircon is fab, great sized balcony with 2 sunbeds, 4 chairs & table and 2 good sized clothes racks for dry towels and swimwear. All the staff were fabulous! A special mention to Carlos and Max for the entertainment around the pool, the fitness classes were hilarious, usually ending up with Carlos in the pool. 😂 Sunbeds are not allowed to be reserved until 10am and you could still take your pick of locations at 11am. The pool was a nice temperature when you entered, you didn’t get the shock of cold water. It’s an 18 minute down hill walk to the seafront for a large selection of restaurants including Hard Rock Cafe, less than €5 for a taxi ride to get back to the hotel after you have had your fill of food and drink. 😉 Maspalomas is a 50 minute walk or less than €10 in a taxi for another large selection of shops & restaurants/bars. Brilliant hotel, lovely staff. Thanks to you all for making our holiday great. 😊 👍

We stayed at the hotel from February 11th to February 18th and had a spacious double room with a terrace. The room itself was very large and comfortable. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed, and every detail of our stay was carefully explained. The breakfast buffet was impressive, and the service staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional. It was immediately noticeable how much the hospitality here differs positively from what we are used to in Germany. Everyone we encountered was polite, attentive, and genuinely kind. The hotel’s entertainment and programs were outstanding, and we felt very comfortable throughout our stay. The housekeeping was excellent, and every request we had was fulfilled promptly and with care. We can only highly recommend this hotel. The combination of spacious rooms, exceptional breakfast, and outstanding service staff makes it an unforgettable experience. If you are planning a stay in Gran Canaria, this hotel is an excellent choice!

Best place i have ever stayed. The Bungalow apartments are beautiful and really nice. I wish there was a small pool outside on every porch though. And the cleaning wasn't great. I had to ask for cleaners just a couple of hours after we arrived because it was lots of dust, hair and even nails!!! Someone has been cutting their toenails in the sofa. Eeewww. But otherwise beautiful hotel.

Location was great. Everything was near. 2/3 pools were warm, which was nice. Rooms were cleaned every day. Only thing that slightly bothered was the sewer smell from the toilet. Other thing was, beacause our room faced the busy road and loungebar, the noice was quite loud. But luckily, when you closed the bedroom door, you couldnt here anything. Overall expirience was really nice and could go to this hotel again.
