Sol y Playa Rooftop, San Bartolomé De Tirajana Overview
Sol y Playa Rooftop is a practical, comfort-focused base in San Bartolomé de Tirajana, Spain, with a rooftop setting that suits guests who want a quieter stay while still reaching the beach area. Located on Calle Marruecos, 15, the hotel is a good match for travellers who like to start the day with fresh air on the terrace and then head out for Playa del Inglés Beach (about 4 km) or the Yumbo Centre (about 5 km). Guests commonly mention the value of having air conditioning for warmer days and the convenience of a lift for easy access to upper levels. Reviews also tend to highlight the calm, non-smoking approach and the helpfulness of private check-in/check-out, which reduces waiting on arrival.
On-site, the rooftop and solarium spaces are where many visitors spend downtime between excursions, especially when the weather turns pleasant in the evenings. For a slower routine, the public bath option adds variety when you don’t want to go straight back out. If you’re planning day trips or want flexibility around arrival times, the hotel can arrange car hire and offers shuttle service for an additional charge, which helps when you’re not travelling with your own transport.
In the wider area, you’re well placed for Playa de las Burras (around 6 km) and the Maspalomas Dunes (about 12 km), so nature lovers can pair beach time with desert landscapes. Sol y Playa Rooftop is best for couples, solo explorers, and small groups who prefer a straightforward stay with outdoor spaces, easy logistics, and quick access to the most popular attractions in Gran Canaria.

Should You Book Sol y Playa Rooftop?
Worth considering if you want a quieter base in San Bartolomé de Tirajana with practical comfort and a rooftop setup. It’s a good fit for beach and Maspalomas day-trippers, but it’s not the most convenient option if you need to be right next to the main nightlife hubs.
Best For
- Quiet-stay travelers who prefer a calmer area while still reaching Playa del Inglés Beach and nearby attractions by car or shuttle
- Beach and nature day-trippers planning trips to Playa de las Burras and the Maspalomas Dunes (Parque Natural de Maspalomas)
- Couples or small groups who like starting the day with a rooftop routine and then heading out for dining at local spots like El Chiringuito or Restaurante La Palmera
- Guests who value practical logistics such as air conditioning, lift access, private check-in/check-out, and car hire or shuttle service (additional charge)
Not Ideal For
- Travelers who want to walk to the beach or Yumbo Centre frequently, since the closest major attractions listed are several kilometers away
- Light sleepers or anyone sensitive to noise from the surrounding area, since the only provided location context is a street address and a “quieter stay” positioning (not a guarantee of silence)
- Guests who need immediate access to the airport by the shortest route, given Gran Canaria Airport is 30 km away and the other listed airports are much farther
What to Expect
You arrive at Calle Marruecos, 15 and settle into a comfort-focused stay designed for a quieter rhythm.

The surrounding dining options make it easy to mix casual and local meals, from seafood at El Chiringuito to Canarian flavors at Restaurante La Palmera. If you’re the type to plan day trips, the Maspalomas Dunes and Aqualand Maspalomas are within reach for a full day out before returning to a calmer base.
