Aparthotel Playa Dorada

The hotel is perfect at first glance. Great service, clean rooms, the morning sunrise view from the balcony is indescribable. There is a kettle and cups in the room, but there is no coffee or tea, which you have to bring from downstairs. The food is a huge minus, frozen food and frozen food. Unfortunately, my child ate French fries for a week. Maybe it was better because the quality of frozen products was not that great either. Only the cakes were ok. Moldy fruit on a tray... The biggest minus and why I will never come back to this hotel is that we went for a mini breakfast at 4 a.m. before departure. I wanted to make toast because there was nothing else, but there were cockroaches everywhere! Food should be secured if there is such a problem. It's an unpleasant situation when you pick up bread and there is a cockroach on it. There were more of them on the countertops. If it weren't for this early breakfast, I probably wouldn't even know about them. Oh, and I was there at the end of the season and unfortunately most of the alcohols were not available in the bar during the last few days.

The location is perfect,loads of things to do around the local area,the beach to the left of the hotel is one the best I have seen.our room was gorgeous all modern and a check out on the last day 12pm the all inclusive drinks 5* the entertainment was great live bands 3 times a week the only negatives food bit repetitive and no snack bar would definitely return again.

Im on my 3rd day here. Got a 4 day holiday with loveholidays for £250pp all inclusive flights and transfers. The value of this holiday is outstanding. The hotel is kept very clean. Staff very helpful and polite. Our room as pictured. For me and two teenage sons is great however the sofa bed is not comfy its hard. Apart from that the room is perfect. Clean and shower nice and hot. Balcony looks over pool and sea its beautiful. Other balconies are very close so u can meet your neighbours lol. The location of this hotel is perfect. There is a locked door you use your room key from the pool area directly onto the beach. To the right of that there is a cycle hire shop. We have used this twice now. The red cycle path is 12km in total will take you on a lovely safe ride passing many bars and resturants. The first part takes you away from the beach then you come back onto ride along the beach. The beaches are stunning light sand and clear water. Back at the hotel i have found the pool becomes shaded in the afternoon from the hotel. This could be a blessing if boiling hot. However if you want full sun just step onto the beach. The food is adequate and i wouldnt want to eat here for a week just because the only meat i eat is chicken. Its a shame the mixed salads and pizza has ham on them as for vegetarians it is limited. Lunch time i quite often eat poatoes and salad. Its all lovely and fresh. For the price ive paid im happy to eat out aswell. The all inclusive is great for two teenage boys that can eat 2 or 3 plates full and still go out for a pizza 🤣. The bar drinks are great you only get plastics around the pool. Otherwise served in a glass. They have 4 cocktails on tap. Ive tried 3. Love on the beach was strong. Pina colada tequila sunrise delicious. Soft drinks on tap help yourself. They also offer you more than 1 drink at a time. Theres a cute little dance routine about 8.30pm which is good for under 7s they get the kids running about and the outside entertainment area is nice and clean overlooking the pool and beach you can also dine out here. The hotel has a good a**osphere. Plenty of people. Ive not seen any party ***** or liveliness so if your young wanting to party i do not recommend you would be disappointed. For young familys and couples wanting a relaxing time its great.

Very nice hotel especially for a 3 star. Room was lovely, big and clean. beds were comfortable. Room had a fridge, hair dryer, and plenty of plug sockets. good amount of storage. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Pool area is nice but shady in the early afternoon, Sun beds need updating as they are fixed in position and are not adjustable, but there appeared to be plenty for all. Bar area is nice but not enough seating for everyone to sit outside which was a little disappointing if you want to sit outside in the evening to have a drink and relax and enjoy the weather. Nice beach and shops near by. Food was okay, but a bit repetitive and unimaginative after a few days, but well cooked, and plentiful. Evening entertainment was awful to be honest, out of a 9 night stay they had one parrot show which was boring, and three bands (2 of which were okay) other than that it was bingo. Who ever books the entertainment needs sacking as it was very bad. The hotel next door had much better entertainment and all appeared to be really enjoying it, up dancing and singing etc. Hotel had free wifi in the main reception / bar area but you have to pay to use it in your room (don't bother paying for it as it is rubbish and not worth paying for as it doesn't work efficiently, and your wasting your money). Would I return - YES!

We left the hotel after we saw the room that we booked: everywhere was mold, many parts of the rooms needed urgent renovation. The smell in the room was unbearable. People at the reception are rude, absolutely do not want to help. I would like to mention Melanie from the reception: I never saw such an aggressive person who does not like people and does not want to help people at all. Pilar at the reception was also very passive and does not show any willingness to change the room. The hotel is in a and condition, and a very, very old one.

Payed £1600 for two adults all inclusive for ten nights ,booked with on the beach which included flights and transfers. All of the staff were very polite and the hotel was very clean. The rooms were very good and we had a great sea view.Food and drinks were what to expect for a 3 star.soft drinks self serving which is a good idea.Around the pool needs attention some of the floor need levelling as there is some bad trip hazards and the sun beds could need replacing.All in all a good hotel for a 3 star.
