Playa de Maspalomas, Canary Islands, Spain
4.5 (8.619 reviews) Spent Ranking #2 in Gran Canaria Beaches
Lack of Kiosks and Toilets
With the nice new kiosks placed during lockdown it was a real disappointment to not have them open. Also a huge missed opportunity to have toilets installed in the middle of the beach as it's such a long walk to get back to either end to use facilities if you're spending the day there. For visitors please note that only card payments can be taken for sun loungers and parasols, they are no longer accepting cash and a lot of people were caught out by it. Again forcing customers to take their cards and phones down the beach it would be nice if there were some kind of locker facility by each kiosk for a small fee. Aside from this still a gorgeous clean beach and the attendants were lovely friendly people so heartily recommend a visit

Love this beach - as always.
Had 2 weeks of great relaxation on the "middle" section of the beach. Wasn't too windy, got quite hot, and was almost always blazing sun! I wish whatever battle is going on about the kiosks could be resolved; they are still closed. They are very handy, and are a focal point also. However, there is no shortage of vendors wandering the beach - though I don't think they're meant to. So, authorities, open the kiosks, or give the vendors a break! Also note; if you want to pay for sombreros/sunbeds you MUST PAY BY CARD - not cash. Great time though! :)
