Club Caleta Dorada

We booked as a last minute sunny holiday and the photos of the resort is what sold it to us. In the past we have been disappointed by the actual hotel based on the photos they advertise with but we were met with exactly the same beautifully refurbished rooms and clean pools. However the shower was not very warm in the room. The all-inclusive food in buffet style was much better than we have experienced before and there was always a large selection of freshly prepared food. The only downside was that there were no pint glasses for the tap beer so had to use wine glasses. The activities around the pool were great as well and got everyone involved and were well organised. The staff were so helpful and polite as well and you can hire beach towels for €10 each which I would recommend as it saves room in the suitcase and also cash on the last day paid for our taxi back to the airport. I would recommend not using the shuttle transfer from airport as this resort it only a 10/15 min drive away and cost under €20 each way. We also booked the Oasis Park Safari through the rep in the hotel and the coach did a return journey outside the hotel for €5. I would recommend the camel ride as well which you pay for separately. We wished that we had booked for longer!!

I am in love with this island. As a single mum traveling with three kids (16, 8 and 5), for the first time abroad, I was slightly apprehensive given some reviews. In reality the holiday was wonderful. The restaurant staff are amazing. One waiter in particular was very lovely and deserves recognition by the hotel manager (particularly for putting up with me and the kids practicing our Spanish). Unfortunately, I never got his name to be able to mention him directly and he left for a 33 day vacation half way through our stay 😞. However, it is fair to say it was not the same after he left. The food is excellent and even as vegetarians, me and the kids were not stuck for choice. The location is glorious and it is convenient for accessing the beach. I personally found the accommodation to be perfectly located and peaceful too. My daughter has sensory needs and can easily be overwhelmed by noise and that was not the case here. I think she only had one meltdown the entire holiday. The choice of pools is great but the poolside is slippery and my eldest hit her head, so be careful. Pools are clean and toilets, bar snacks and drinks are easily accessible. The accommodation was comfortable and fresh, it was cleaned twice during the stay to a very high standard. The cleaners even arranged the kids toys beautifully on their beds which made their day. There was a smell of drains in the bathroom but this was nothing major. Also, the hotel accommodation is not spread out as far as some reviews make out. I found it quick and convenient to access pools/bars/restaurant. I also felt 100% safe on my own with three children, both in the accommodation and walking around site. I would love to return here again soon as I know we would be guaranteed a great holiday. I did thank staff at reception in person before leaving too. The only drawback to this holiday was the minority of other rude British holidaymakers who showed little respect to staff who work hard.

We arrived here on Tuesday evening the little bungalows are basic and cleanish.The floor is filthy. Needs a good mop with CLEAN hot water. Had to plug kettle in on the floor as no plug socket, get sachets of coffee from canteen as none in room.Breakfast is OK but dinner is not so good. Only 1 meat choice, 1 fish choice, plenty of veg and salad and bread. Entertainment not our cup of tea. The quiz was so hard everyone was using their phones for the answers . Would we come again? No. If you have walking issues you may have problems as its quite hilly. On the plus side the pool area is nice and the sun is shining, it's nice and warm

Me and my partner on holiday were seriously worried after looking at the reviews before went about the break ins and uncleanliness. On that we didn’t hear on any break ins while we was there our room was clean but some rooms look new and some looked run down. We didn’t hear multiple people complaining about there room and how there were cockroaches in there room we didn’t have one. The location was really close to town 5-10 minutes good location. All staff friendly the jet2 rep Carl was amazing with the things he offers. The restaurant looked like it was newly done owt and the food was good not many options but enough to choose from and that’s coming from a picky eater. But I will say be careful when picking up plates because nearly every time I got a plate I had to put it down to get a clean one. One thing that didn’t sit well with us is there are roads in between the rooms so anyone can just walk around your hotel rooms and you would never know. And also at c there was a disgusting smell near the drinks section

Not what we expected. No welcome drink. Room waited nearly 4 hours and only got a room when hubby got angry. Lots of un kept pavements and roads bar in complex b best part staff amazing not a lot of food choice in main restaurant. A long walk to area c for entertainment and not good if you have walking difficulties. Bars and restaurants nearby very good. Love this resort but won't be back in a hurry not to this hotel
