Perchel Beach Club turns a hot Gran Canaria day into slow time by the Atlantic. You get access to the infinity pool and the hammock solarium, plus a lunch built around rice and local products. One thing to keep in mind is the club keeps a tight line on outside food and drinks, so plan around that before you arrive.

What I like most is the setup for an easy day: your adult ticket includes an individual hammock, parasol, and towel, so you can park yourself and forget the logistics. Add in the welcome drink, and the pace feels instantly vacation-like.

The main drawback is practical, not personal: service can mean a bit of waiting when staff has to reach you through the club’s interactive system, and there are also rules that can be stressful if you are traveling with kids.

Key highlights to know before you go

• Infinity pool with a visual merge toward the Atlantic, great for cooling off and late-day views
• Hammock solarium included for adults, with parasol and towel for real sun comfort
• Lunch that centers on rice, with multiple rice choices and a dessert included
• Welcome snack drink with cava or juice to start the day without scrambling
• Clear no-outside-drinks rule, with a small exception for baby food only
• Good overall value for a full-day plan, even with drinks priced separately

Perchel Beach Club Day Pass: what kind of day this is

This is a full-day ticket for Gran Canaria that feels closer to a resort day than a typical beach visit. You are paying for time, comfort, and a set meal plan, with the big payoff being how easy it is once you are there. If you want a day that is mostly sun, swim, and lunch with minimal decision-making, this works.

Perchel Beach Club positions itself as a family-friendly luxury hangout, so you can expect a mix of ages and a relaxed atmosphere. The vibe is built around staying put: hammocks in a solarium area, then the pool as your main loop. It is the kind of place where you spend more time noticing the view and the light than bouncing between stops.

You should also know what this is not. It is not a traditional beach with sand you can spread out on. One review points out that there is not a beach in the usual sense, and the front desk experience can vary. If you are craving sand, bring different expectations and plan to focus on the pool and deck.

The included lunch: rice choices, starter, and dessert

Lunch is a big part of the value here, and it is structured enough that you can relax even if you are hungry at a specific time. Your ticket includes:

• A starter you choose: Canary salad, croquettes, or smoked cheese with tomato jam
• A rice main you choose: Lord, meloso de Vegetables, Iberian, Valencian, or Black of Chipirón
• Dessert included

That rice menu matters because the club is very clear about being a rice-specialist. It is also tied to their emphasis on higher-quality products and local sourcing, including kilometer zero items. Even if rice is not your usual go-to, you will probably find at least one option that fits your mood, especially if you like comforting, filling meals.

Here is my practical take on choosing your rice. If you want something familiar, the Iberian or Valencian styles are usually the safest bets. If you prefer something lighter-feeling, meloso de Vegetables can be a good direction, since it is explicitly vegetable-focused. If you like seafood flavors, Black of Chipirón is the one to look at.

One caution: lunch portions and satisfaction can be very individual. One feedback note says the lunch setup could be more than they expected and they could not finish everything. That does not mean it is a bad lunch, just that you should avoid planning a second big meal after. Also keep in mind menu components can change for alternatives of equal or greater value.

Infinity pool and solarium comfort: where the day actually happens

If you are shopping for a hot-day escape, the infinity pool is the headline. Reviews repeatedly mention the pool and comfort, including comments about perfect water temperature and the feel of the space. The visual effect, with the water appearing to line up with the ocean horizon, makes it easier to sink into “vacation mode.”

But the pool is not the only comfort upgrade. The ticket includes an individual hammock, parasol, and towel for each adult. That combination changes the day. Without it, many beach clubs turn into a scramble for shade and a guessing game about where to put your stuff. Here, you can unpack and settle.

My best advice is to think of the day in two phases:

• First phase: use the pool as your temperature reset, then move to the hammock area and stay there
• Second phase: return to the pool in the later afternoon, when the light and the setting feel extra special

One review highlights the sunset view, and that matches what you can expect when a club is designed around ocean-facing relaxation. Even if you are not a sunset person, the last hour before closing tends to be the nicest time to stop rushing.

Drinks and the snack welcome: what is included versus what costs extra

Your ticket includes a welcome drink snack, either cava or juice. That is a nice touch because it gives you a small start without making you search for the bar immediately.

Drinks beyond that are not included. So if you are imagining cocktails all day, you will need to budget. Reviews mention cocktails and pool food being available, but they also align with the idea that you should expect to pay for adult drinks during your stay.

This is one of the most important value checks. The base ticket price covers the pool, the adult comfort kit, and lunch. It does not cover a full day of beverages. If you tend to order a lot, the total cost can creep up quickly.

Tip for planning: if you are a steady drinker, set a drink budget before you arrive. Then you can enjoy the place without thinking about money every time someone brings a menu.

Timing, length of stay, and how to make the most of 3 to 8 hours

The experience is listed as about 3 to 8 hours, which tells you something: this is a flexible “choose your pace” day. If you show up and immediately claim your hammock spot, you can stretch the day without feeling like you must constantly move.

The club opening hours are 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Monday through Sunday. The service window is also listed across a date range from 09/10/2025 to 06/20/2026. Practically, that means you are planning your visit around daytime sun and a long late-afternoon window.

When I’m picking a day-pass like this, I look for two things: a time window that matches the weather, and a meal that anchors the day. Here, lunch is your anchor, and the pool plus hammock rhythm supports a long stay.

One small operational note from feedback: there can be waiting times for staff to reach you using the interactive system. If you are the type who hates delays, plan for a slower pace. If you are okay with downtime, this becomes part of the relaxing rhythm rather than an annoyance.

Family rules and outside food: the no-outsides boundary

This is where a lot of day-pass experiences get tricky, and Perchel Beach Club is pretty firm about it. Food and beverages are not allowed outside, with exceptions for baby purees and compotes. There is also a hammock detail for kids: children under 12 do not have a hammock included, and the guidance is to share a hammock for each adult.

If you are traveling with children, read that carefully. It affects comfort and also what you bring. One piece of feedback notes a problem with kids being unable to eat outside snacks like cookies, which created frustration. The bigger message for you is simple: do not plan on bringing casual snacks or drinks for kids unless it fits the baby food exception.

Also remember you are paying for a very specific comfort setup. If a hammock is part of the plan, it matters for how your family will relax. If you are traveling with a mixed group, think ahead about who gets the included hammock per adult and how the kids will handle waiting between meals and pool time.

Location and getting there without stress

The club is near public transportation, which helps if you do not want to coordinate car parking. The ticket is a mobile ticket, and you get confirmation at booking time, so you can usually manage this without last-minute printing.

Because there is no separate meeting point description beyond the club context, I suggest treating arrival time like part of your plan. Arrive early enough to settle into your hammock area before the day warms up. When the club is busy, the relaxing part depends on you getting in, unpacking, and settling.

Price and value: what $91.34 per person is buying you

At $91.34 per person, this is not a bargain. But it also is not just “pool access.” You are buying a package:

• Infinity pool access
• An adult comfort kit: hammock, parasol, and towel
• A structured lunch with starter, rice choice, and dessert
• A welcome drink snack (cava or juice)
• A full day window that can last up to 8 hours

So the real value question is: do you plan to use the pool time and lunch as your main activities? If yes, the price starts to make sense because you are not paying separately for shade, a lounge setup, and a multi-course meal plan.

If you only want a quick swim and you are the type who eats elsewhere, you will probably feel the cost more. And if you plan to drink a lot, remember beverages are not included.

For families, the price may feel easier to justify when the included comfort kit reduces the need to buy extras on site. For couples, it often hits best when you want a controlled, easy day with a good view and a meal that is handled for you.

The service experience: friendly, with one common friction point

The tone of the place comes through in feedback: staff are described as friendly and attentive. Many comments focus on treatment quality and how comfortable the areas are. You can also use the interactive system to request service, and there is praise for drinks and food being served to your bed or hammock area.

The downside is that this system can create waiting times. So if you are the kind of person who wants to place orders and get served instantly, you might get impatient. If you can handle a few minutes while you enjoy the setting, it feels like part of the slow-day design.

One small name detail that may interest you: a responsible person named Eugenio is singled out as super friendly and attentive. If that staff member is working when you go, you can expect a calm, helpful style.

Should you book this Perchel Beach Club full-day ticket?

Book it if you want:

• A pool-centered day with real comfort included
• A lunch plan that does not require you to research menus on arrival
• A day that works for couples and families, with an emphasis on relaxation

Skip it or adjust expectations if:

• You expect a sandy beach experience. This is more pool and deck than beach walking
• You rely on outside snacks or drinks for kids, because the no-outside rule is strict
• You want unlimited included drinks, because cocktails and other beverages cost extra

If you are planning a Gran Canaria day built around heat-proof downtime, this is a strong choice. The biggest win is the combination of sea-facing pool, hammock setup, and a rice-focused lunch that keeps the day simple.
