. Theme pubs with good beer and a cabaret etc would suit.
OK so Me and SWMBO are thinking about this years hols and we're fancying Gran Canaria. As you lot are well travelled I wondered if you'd
give me some of the valuable info you've gleaned over the years. We're looking at Maspalomas (at the moment) possibly All Inclusive (never
done it before and sceptical about not being happy with the grub) and having to eat elsewhere (Yeah I know we can complain as well) but sometimes the
problem is not always resolved to your satisfaction till you get back. Ideally we're looking for somewhere not to busy/bustling for through the
day but not like a morgue at night either. Lets hear your thoughts. Oh and I'm a young 40ish and SWMBO doesn't look a day over her
age. Theme pubs with good beer and a cabaret etc would suit.
just make sure you stay in a princess hotel and you'll be fine.
i went to gran canaria, posted a thread about it in advance:

was bloody good fun in the end. I did particularily enjoy the swimming pool/bar combo. 
do watch out for the rip off culture out there, the touts will lie through their teeth to sell beer/tickets etc. It might be a spanish territory but
it is NOT european standards.
ie a glass bottomed boat 'swim with dolphins' and jetskis for 15 euros, became a booze cruise on a flithy barge, and 25 euros for the
jetski. And the dolphins were laughing far away...
