Vista Bonita is an exclusive gay and lesbian complex, which offers a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. This small complex is in Sonnenland, which is a short distance from the bustling main resort of Playa del Ingles.

The apartments are big and offer everything you would need while on holiday, including a large terrace. There is a good-sized pool and jacuzzi, which is perfect for relaxing in while enjoying the glorious weather.
In the Area
Sonnenland is far quieter than other areas; however, it is the perfect place to stay if you want to simply lie back and relax. There are shops, bars and restaurants nearby, and the beach is a short taxi journey.
You can easily get to the main resort by taxi, and enjoy the livelier atmosphere; however, many people that stay in these apartments are simply after a peaceful holiday.
Good Points
You will find that the complex is spotless and well-maintained which, for the price, is a surprise. There are organised barbecues to make sure that all the guests feel at home.
From the moment you arrive you will feel welcome, and all of the people who work here speak several languages which is handy. There is a pool bar, and it closes early so there is very little noise.
Bad Points
You’ll have to taxi everywhere, which can be a bit expensive after a while, but walking is an option as everywhere is flat. Towels can be a bit sparse, and if you miss the cleaner there is no way of getting any until she returns.
There are limited people who work in Vista Bonita, which is fine until you need someone urgently.
Overall
If you are looking for a friendly gay resort or lesbian resort in Gran Canaria, this one is highly recommended. As long as you don’t mind a bit of walking (or taxi trips) to get around, this one is ideal.
