This is the 7th visit to this hotel and last year was very disappointing through worn out sunbeds, rooms getting little shabby. I did sent email of concern and they replied positively. This visit was much better. All the sunbeds have been changed and they are upgrading 200 of the rooms. We had one of the pilot upgraded rooms and... More

We stayed here last year as a couple and really enjoyed the hotel, on arrival this year we did have to wait for our room but this was not a problem as we just strolled to the beach bar and took in the breathtaking views. Our stay was special to us as it was our 10th wedding anniversary, 'Joshua' who... More

Just returned from a very relaxing holiday at the Playa Dorada. Everything good that had been described in other reviews. We had a lovely welcome and as we arrived and dinner was being served, the receptionist arranged for our luggage to be taken straight to the room while we went to the restaurant. Perfect location due to being only ten... More

So near to a perfect beach and only a few minutes to the town. Quiet area and lots of parking places. Super hotel on a lovely island. Great place for a week in the sun. Much better price than the 5 star hotel next door and just as good!

Just returned from a week's holiday at this hotel having also stayed here five years ago. My husband and myself had a fantastic time, made all the more enjoyable as the weather was gorgeous. The hotel is undergoing room refurbishments at present, but this didn't interfere with our time there at all! The pool area is great and had good... More

The main thing going for this hotel is it's prime location almost on the excellent beach and about 5 minutes walk to the resort centre one way, and the Marina in the oppposite direction. It is a large hotel offering all the facilities one would expect where the majority of visitors (like us) are package tourists. The staff here are... More

The hotel is in a good location very near the beach of Playa Dorada and the promenade. The beach is lovely sand and safe bathing for children. Not far from bars and restaurants and the Marina which has restaurants and is nice at night. We went to Jungle Bar which has singers most nights. Good pool area and when we... More

Having booked this hotel I was a little bit concerned after viewing some rather scathing reviews on here, then when I received an email from Thomas Cook 3 days before travelling explaining that there were renovations taking place that could cause some noise annoyance I was extremely concerned. I am pleased to say both worries we're completely unfounded. Granted we... More

Just arrived back from the Playa Dorada Hotel, had a great time. Hotel is not the prettiest on the island but other than that is is great. Food is brilliant, with a theme each night, e.g. Italian, Mexican, Canarian etc, all public areas are spotless as are the rooms, but these do need a refurb, which is being done now,... More

I stayed at this hotel with my brother, sister and nephew and we had a fabulous holiday. My sister and her son upgraded to a junior suite and my brother had a ground floor room with an ocean view.
