Fun fact...
Back in the 18th century, the rich and fertile land of Canyamel was used to grow sugar cane. And that’s how it gained its name – ‘canyamel’ is Catalan for ‘cane’. It’s now often affectionately known as ‘caramel’ by the locals, who get to live the sweet life here and enjoy all the resort’s delightful benefits.
