The Playground of the English, or so it's been called. It's a real tourist attraction, mainly for British and Irish holiday makers. The resort of Playa del Ingles is more suited to younger holiday makers who like to live it up and party. Booze cruises, Foam parties, night clubs galore, and shopping in the Kasbah Center.
If you're looking for a quiet getaway for your family, or for older, more relaxed couples/singles, then the resort of Maspalomas is better for you.
