Fodor's Expert Review Princesa Yaiza Suite Hotel Resort
Av. de Papagayo s/n, Playa Blanca, Canary Islands, 35580, Spain
It might be big, but this sprawling white hotel still manages to do luxury with a capital L. From the glass of cava served at check-in to the exceptional ocean views and manicured tropical gardens, a stay here is a first-class experience. Spaciousness rules here: there's a lofty and verdant lobby, six massive pools, and generous rooms, most of which are suites. Dining is also big—choose from one of the eight restaurants, including Isla de Lobos, which serves award-winning and organic "slow food."
