A small spa resort: this one? (3,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

las palmas

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'this one?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'a small spa resort' is the wordplay.
'resort' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'small'+'spa'='asmallspa'
'asmallspa' with letters rearranged gives 'LAS PALMAS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for las palmas that I've seen before include "somewhere in the Canaries" , "City in the Canary Islands" , "Gran Canaria's capital" , "port" , "Capital of Gran Canaria" .)
