Sunwing 阿爾吉內金海濱

We visited Sunwing in May 2025. We had the most amazing holiday! The hotel is SPOTLESSLY clean! We were located on the 7th Floor. Had a lovely room with double bed, and then 2 sofas that converted into very comfy beds for the children. Good sized balcony looking out onto fantastic views of the hotel area and out to sea. Check in was efficient and simple, we didn't have to wait around at all. We selected the Bed & Breakfast option for this holiday (usually go all inclusive but find it restricts you to the hotel). The breakfast buffet was great, fab selection of foods with live cooking stations. The only issue I would say were the pigeons but staff would “shoo” them away. Always plenty of tables for you to choose from either inside or out. On the first evening, we used the A la Carte restaurant in the hotel “Miguel’s”. The menu was easily located using a QR code. The food was then prepared and served to you at your table. We could not fault a single meal we had in Miguel’s, and did opt to eat there most nights although bed and breakfast as the price was ridiculously cheap. You could pick up a delicious smash burger for €13 including chips. They also had other meals such as steak, fish dishes and plenty of pizza and pasta dishes. The deal was for every paying adult you got a child’s meal completely free!! Our full meals would come to €30-€40 each time which was crazy for the quality of food and service. Again fantastic range of children’s meals available and they also offered some adult meals in a smaller portion! One member of staff in particular who was on the bar most evenings went above and beyond during our stay! He was super friendly and fantastic with the children!! Again drinking was relatively cheap, with good range of wines, spirits and cocktails available. We watched the entertainment most nights it was on. Our children loved the mascots Lollo and Bernie. They would walk around the pool also during the day offering children hi5s and cuddles which was super cute! The pools were fantastic. All heated which was great as you didn’t get the shock you normally do when entering a cold pool. Location is right on the sea front so occasionally would get a sea breeze which was welcoming as it helped to cool down a little. We had some really good days out. Hotel is fantastic location for Gran Canaria’s amazing bus service. Buses are coaches and very frequent. You are able to go to most places on the island from the stops. We visited Puerto Rico, maspalomas, and playa del ingles using the coach service. Prices were very reasonable again for a family of 4! We used the passenger boat which went from Argenguin to Anfi del mar, Puerto Rico and then Puerto Mogan. Worth a visit to all these places. Puerto Mogan has a fantastic market on a Friday and most of the store holders are also at the market in argenguin on a Tuesday! Worth a visit. Anfi and Mogan were our favourite places we vistited. Both picture perfect towns with plenty of eateries and things

MEALS We did not choose all inclusive, but instead cooked every meal except one lunch and two dinners in the tiny kitchen in our room. Since we had a 1,5 year-old we felt that meals at the restaurant would be difficult and not worth the cost. I would make the same decision again although if the children were older I would probably go with the “inclusive” option with 5 out of 7 days of meals. We did eat at Miguel’s Kitchen once and food was ok, not great. MAIN POSITIVES 1. AMAZING STAFF taking care of the children and performing shows five out of seven days. Our 5 year old loved the activities ranging from mystery solving to t-shirt painting. He also spent a lot of time in the play area, although not very big it was fun. Many activities were for 3 years and older and the age limit was very strict (children 2 years and 10 months weren’t allowed. 2. ROOMS WERE CLEAN and well looked after. Room cleaning was great and the hotel was generally in a good state. Make sure to book seafront view, it was very nice to have. I didn’t experience the same issues with the sound coming from stage in the evenings as some others seem to have had. Sure, you could hear the sound clearly in the room, but my kids had no trouble going to sleep. The kitchen in the room was well equipped and even had a coffee filter for multiple use! 3. GREAT FACILITIES with gym that was well enough equipped as well as yoga/pilates classes. The swimming pools were big and heated and with a lot of sunbeds. We also spent some time at the big chess board next to the swimming pool and in the game room. MAIN NEGATIVES 1. THE KITCHEN WAS TINY although it was well equipped. It was difficult to cook any sort of meal, which is maybe the whole point. 2. THE DISTANCE TO SHOPS and restaurants were not far for an adult, but going there with kids was a bit of a challenge. If you do not have all inclusive, make sure to plan your shopping ahead of time! 3. The mini-shop was VERY EXPENSIVE, prices generally double that of any little shop in Arguineguin 600 metres away.
