More from Spain and a hip hotel in Meloneras

Here is som more photos from the elegant hotel Lopesan Baobab resort and spa in Meloneras in Gran Canaria in Spain.

This is one of the elegant and hip, designed chairs that you could find in the hotel.

And as I wrote about last time the hotel have an african theme, this is one of the bars.

It is also a lot of green plants and lush gardens everywhere.

At Lopesan Baobab

If you want to stay in a hotel that reminds you of Africa without leaving Europe, this is the answer: Hotel and resort Lopesan Baobab in Gran Canaria.

It is an amazing place, really well done and beautiful, day and night.

This is a big, big resort in the upmarket "town" of Meloneras, just outside Malspalomas.

And here you can choose from a lot of big pools, not that I used them thou. I am just to cold to swim in 22 degrees, when it is a freezing wind, sorry!

But there is water all over the place, both ponds and pools so I did enyoy them!

And one thing I really loved about this place was the morning yoga at one of the pools.

Training again, this time in Spain

Just came back from a week in Lanzarote in Spain, at the Canary islands. Stayed at the HD beach resort in Costa Teguise.

It was a training week, filled with exercise in various forms, like Yoga, Tai Chi and at the gym. Combined with a lot of walks.

This is just outside the hotel, filled with a lot of flowers in the black lava sand.

I had a really relaxing week, exactly was I needed as I am not feeling well.

The hotel was close to the sea, so you could take a walk at the seaside. Sunny but also very windy when I was there.

The sand and at the beach just outside the hotel.

The tiny village of Las Playitas

Just close to the resort of Las Playitas you can find a little fishing villiage with the same name, Las Playitas.

Here, in the withe washed villiage the time stays still, not much happens here and thankfully not much tourists is coming here either.

One of the resturants in Las Playitas, just by the sea. It is La Rampa and here I ate one evening, really good food too.

But it is really beautiful and ha an amazing view over the sea.

Here is one pic from the beach, you can see the resort in the back ground. Here you can read about what I have to say - in another blog entry - about the amazing hotel/resort of Las Playitas. 

Training at Las Playitas

Have been in Spain, in the Canary Island of Fuerteventura. I stayed at the training and sport resort of Las Playitas, just close to the old fishing village of Las Playitas.

Here in one photo of the resort, from a hill. You can see one part of the resort - the hotel part - in the left of the picture, the old town on the left.

This photo show you the apart hotel where I stayed, and the lovely pool. The resort had many moore pools.

I had my own kitchen. So I made my own breakfast, like in the pic, lunch and dinner and ate it all on my balcony, with a sea view.

In the morning, at 8 you started the day with a sun salutation. While we watched the sun rise. Here you can se a part of the out door gym.

During the day you had all sorts of training, here is a session with zumba, always outdoor and of course included in the prize.

Close by you have a tiny village - read more about it here››
