Palmira Beach Club is on Avenida de Italia in Playa del Inglés, the main tourist strip in southern Gran Canaria. It runs as a restaurant, cocktail bar, and sunbed venue all at once, from early morning through late at night.
If it doesn't suit, the other beach clubs in Gran Canaria are laid out side by side in our city guide.
Music and cocktails are what guests talk about most. A DJ plays regularly, and the cocktails get consistent praise. The crowd is mostly tourists and groups. The place is openly LGBTQ+ friendly and a transgender safe space.
It takes reservations, it's fully wheelchair accessible, and dogs are welcome. Street parking on Avenida de Italia is free, but spaces are often hard to find.
Rated 4.5 from 307 reviews, with 81% giving five stars. Service gets repeated praise. A few reviews flag that food presentation doesn't always match the setting, but it doesn't pull the score down much.

Food & Drinks at Palmira Beach Club
The kitchen runs all day. Breakfast and brunch open things up in the morning, and the menu carries through lunch, dinner, and late-night bites. Pizza is the dish guests mention most. Vegan and vegetarian options appear across the menu too.
Cocktails are the clear highlight at the bar. Coffee also has a dedicated following, and the venue lists it as one of its own highlights. Beer, wine, and spirits are all available. Happy hour covers both drinks and food, which is worth knowing if prices are a concern.
