Description: With its sprawling grounds, pavilions, and towers, Gran Melia Palacio de Isora is often mistaken for Atlantis. "Nay," the staff say, "Atlantis was merely legend; where as we here in Tenerife are very much corporeal."
After rubbing your eyes and coming to grips with your new reality, you may begin to notice a few key things. One: the temperature is perfect, averaging 21o year round. Two: The main pool is gargantuan. Will you need GPS? Three: some designer has really gone to town with the interiors. From the overall vision, down to microscopic detail, you'll see that everything has been measured, considered, and perfected.
A whopping 591 rooms await you, each featuring garden or ocean views. WiFi flows through the rooms, as does the interior design scheme, which is colorful, contemporary, and somewhat bohemian. On the Red Level, the "hotel-within-a-hotel" concept, you'll have access to a private lounge and pool, plus breakfast, butler, and bar service.
Sail, dive, and golf until your heart's content. When it's time for some more stationary leisure, prepare for option paralysis, as Gran Melia Palacio de Isora offers a plethora of dining haunts. Nami Asian Bistro channels the spirit of the Far East, while Pangea offers a stark and sexy glimpse into a modern International marketplace. French and Italian grace is on display at the white and light Ocean Club, and the Oasis Pool Grill will serve you no matter how skimpy your suit.
