The best way to get a sense of Gran Meliá Palacio de Isora is to swim a length of its infinity pool – the longest in Europe.
The 400-metre long saltwater haven is set between Tenerife’s famous volcano Mount Teide and the Atlantic Ocean and spans the entire length of the resort, so you can take a swimming tour of the hotel’s various poolside restaurants, gardens and Clarins spa as you get your daily workout. Cocktail breaks very much encouraged – just use the ‘press for service’ buttons dotted around the water’s edge.
