“Lovely family holiday”

Stayed at the miraflor suites in one of the older bungalows.

Stayed at the miraflor suites in one of the older bungalows. Can't fault the staff on reception, they extended our room a few hours after check out due to a family member with medical issues, check out is 11am and we were able to keep the room til 1pm, pick up to airport was 5pm, reception has a shower and luggage storage for those with later pick ups. (They had 22 people checking in so couldn't extend any longer than 1pm) Room cleaned everyday, clean towels everyday if we needed them, restaurant staff great, food was ok, great selection at breakfast, although no honey for the yoghurt. Snack bar is burgers, hotdogs and pizza, lunch and dinner selection was ok. Soft drinks, Amstel beer and wine on tap, didn't try the cocktails so can't comment on that. You can tell the spirits are either not very strong or watered down. 3 pools 1 of which is the kids pool, lots of sun loungers available, you have to be quick though to get a brolly. The pool area on one of the days was quite dirty, there were empty cups, fag buts and spilt drinks , but overall pool area was good. The only con I have is the older bungalows need a good update - there were cracks on the ceiling, the tiles in our shower were cracked, the seal around the shower screen was dirty, the lock on our bathroom door was broke, I'd recommend upgrading to one of the newer bungalows for anyone coming. If we come again we'll be booking the adults only area with swim up pool. Yumbo centre is a 7 min walk away, playa del ingles beach about a 10 mins walk away. The lucky lucky men don't really bother you too much, once you've said "no thank you" they walk off. I wouldn't class this as 4* due to the older bungalows being so dated, overall though, a good hotel. The grounds are lovely, some peahens and a few cats about. There are safes in the older bungalows, pay a deposit at reception. The sockets in the older bungalows are the 2 pin ones, not sure about the newer ones.

“A hidden gem”

Read quite a few mixed reviews of this hotel but I have to say its been the best holiday we've been on so far. Rooms - we stayed in a standard bungalow with a family of 3 and it was perfect size for us. Two large single beds (pushed together) in a separate bedroom and a sofa bed in the living room for the child. This was perfect as the AC unit was in the living room keeping the kid nice and cool during the heat. Full kitchen set up as well - hob, fridge, coffee machine so if you were half board you could easily cook a meal with pots/pans included. The space outside the bungalow was a fantastic addition, having somewhere semi private to chill out. Theres 3 pools here Kids pool - very good with a slide and a massive splash bucket. Kid loved this pool Middle pool - most activities with the animation team were held here and was big enough to fit everyone but can become abit crowded during peak times Main pool - part of this pool was closed during the first few days of visit but didnt affect our stay whatsoever. All in all, If one pool was abit crowded just move into the next and back and forth. We love having the option of all 3! Best thing about the entire holiday was there was NO SUNBED WARS!!! A very quiet resort with plenty of space for everyone. Every single day we found 3 beds with a parasol. The food was good, abit repetitive as expected but every day there was always something to eat - fresh chicken or fish served. All was very nice Drinks for AI were great, self serve taps for sodas / Amstel Beer / sangria/ red& white wine This meant no queing at the bar for ages! We opted for Sangria mostly every day. When we did fancy a cocktail or spirit we just went to the bar and there was rarely a que (only after entertainment for the evening ended which was expected) Animation team were amazing. They try to get you to join but aren't pushy in the slightest which we've found on other holidays. If you join theyre delighted but if youre not up for it theyre not offended which was so nice! Special shoutout to Paloma who made our daughter feel so welcome at Kids Club! Ady and Nacho were so much fun as well! Entertainment was fab, some nights was live singing or dancing but other nights was the World Cup matches but the team gave out flags and face paints to help everyone enjoy. All in all, a fab holiday with great staff, decent food and unreal vibes!

“2 adults staying in bungalow”

We stayed in a Superior Bungalow, which was excellent. It was very spacious, located right next to the two pools, and cleaned daily to an acceptable standard. The only downside was that the room wasn't cleaned on the first full day after arrival. The bar was amazing. It felt like a normal bar rather than the long queues you often get at all-inclusive hotels. The bar staff were very friendly and worked incredibly hard. The dining hall is quite small, and while the food was okay, there wasn't a huge variety to choose from. That said, there was always something to eat. The entertainment team were fantastic. They were friendly, enthusiastic, and really tried to get everyone involved. If you join in, it's great fun! The Jumbo Centre is about a 10-minute walk away, and the beach is around 25 minutes on foot. Alternatively, a taxi to the beach costs only around €4. You can ask the hotel to call one, or walk about five minutes to the taxi rank outside the Don Miguel Hotel. Sunbeds were always available during our stay. We usually went to the pool after 9am and still had plenty to choose from, even though only one pool was open. Overall, we had a fantastic holiday and left as a very happy couple. The hotel guests were roughly a 50/50 mix of English and German visitors, which created a nice atmosphere.
