Axel Beach Hotel

An LGBTQ+ community fave, the 3-Star, Adults Only Axel Beach Maspalomas is the place to be for pool partying and lounge garden lazing.

AxelBeach Maspalomas: Sun, Style and a Splash of Sass

Axel Beach isn’t your typical resort hotel. It’s cool, confident, and gloriously inclusive. A place where poolside gossip, golden tans, and good cocktails mingle beneath swaying palms.

The Axel ethos is simple, everyone’s welcome, but expect a decidedly LGBTQ+ heartbeat. The vibe is urban chic meets beach holiday, think simple, minimalist guestrooms, whitewashed walls, and a pool area that could double as a fashion shoot backdrop.

By day, life revolves around the Sky Bar pool. It’s all floaty loungers, upbeat tunes, and staff who mix mojitos like they mean it. Sunworshippers soak up the rays while striking up conversations with fellow guests, half of whom seem to have arrived for a weekend and stayed a week. The crowd is an effortless mix, couples, solo travellers, and groups of friends who come for the relaxed freedom the Axel brand promises. You’ll hear accents from across Europe all swapping stories between dips in the turquoise water.

When you need a break from the sun (or the flirting), the wellness centre offers a sauna, steam room and massages, while the compact gym provides the chance to work-off all that sangria.

As the sun sets, the pool glows in neon blues and purples, the bar shakes up another round, and laughter spills into the balmy night. From here, it’s a ten-minute wander to the Yumbo - the island’s glittering nightlife centre - or a short taxi to the dunes of Maspalomas for a moonlit stroll.

But what really makes AxelBeach stand out is the atmosphere. There’s a sense of ease, of belonging, of being exactly who you want to be, in board shorts, heels, or nothing much at all. It’s sexy without being seedy, relaxed without ever feeling dull.

Whether you come to party, to tan, or simply to feel a little bit fabulous, AxelBeach Maspalomas serves up sunshine with attitude, and a smile that says, ‘you’re home.’
