Suite Hotel Jardin Dorado

I wouldn’t say it’s a 4 star hotel. Rather 3 stars tops. The cleaning ladies were amazing. Everyday they were cleaning the rooms, changing towels and even the patio next to each bungalow. The room was specious, there was a fridge and when asked, the kettle was provided. Regarding the room itself - very simple, the beds were shaking, the window in the bathroom was broken and we couldn’t open it. The breakfast is more like a 1 star hotel. No salads, you can have sliced tomatoes or cucumbers. Luckily there was someone preparing fried eggs and omelette otherwise we would be starving. We only had breakfast there, I must say I’m happy we didn’t have all inclusive option. The waiters were kind to us. The area around the hotel does not encourage for a walk. We had a car so it wasn’t a problem for us, but take this into consideration if you want to have a walk around. You’ll need to walk a lot in order to get out from this area where there are only hotels and streets and nothing else. Overall for the price we paid 860€ for 2 people for 6 nights it’s okay, but I wouldn’t stay there again.

Just returned from a very relaxing stay here. The staff were very friendly and attentive. There was lots of choice of food and drinks on the all inclusive option. It was not just our suitcases overweight in the way back! The rooms were as expected, a little tired but huge. The key code for our room was soooo long though. Location wise, it’s a bit of a walk to get anywhere but there is a shuttle bus from the hotel (occasionally) and the local busses are super easy. There are some really lovely places to visit not too far away. We had a fabulous view of the golf course from our room. In the evenings we walked to Holiday World a few times to keep the teenage kids amused, they also loved the bingo nights at the hotel 😂 It really was a peaceful and relaxing stay.

Not somewhere I would stay again. It’s very tatty please see pictures. Shower head covered in mould, plastic scabby chairs on the terrace, broken parasol and just really run down. The pool is ok but very very cold and the breakfast offering is awful. The sausage are like grey hot dog sausages and its too far out of the way from anything.

A very good hotel with top facilities and incredibly nice people. As a vegan, I have also become full there. Delicious food and excellent service. If I should come back to Maspalomas, then here! Muchas Gracias

I am writing this with a couple of days left, on our first family holiday to Suite Hotel Jardin Dorado. It has been a great holiday experience here. The resort is 1.7 miles from Maspolamas and there is a free shuttle bus to take you there, the beach and the sand dunes (all the same stop). Suite Hotel Jardin Dorado is a resort with individual bungalows set in an arc around the swimming pool and restaurant/bar facilities. There are plenty of sun-beds and less parasols. No real tussle to get a bed before 10am but can be busier in the afternoon. There are 5 family/large beds which get taken early. The pool has a lifeguard from 10am-6pm & a young lady offers aqua aerobics at 12.30pm 5 days a week. Music she plays is quite loud & off putting for some! She offers children’s activities colouring, card and ball games etc More catered for young children. Pool is in 3 sections with jacuzzi and various fountains. The food selection. Is good, with hot and cold dishes, fruit and deserts and selection of alcoholic and soft drinks. There is also a snack menu if you get hungry between set meal times. We ordered (paid) for a pizza once. Opposite the resort is a well stocked supermarket. We bought lilos from here, my advice spend a bit more as the cheapest ones only last 3-4 days. The rooms are good, open plan with 2 singles (put together for a double) a sofa bed & tv that swings from the sitting area to the bed area. The bathroom includes a twin basin, toilet and walk in shower with rainfall & standard shower. Shower gel, shampoo & soap provided and clean towels daily. Bed linen changed every few days. We only discovered the small courtyard area on the back of the property after a few days. The lock was a touch stiff but it was great to find a clothes drying rack here, which also benefits from the air-con unit giving off heat. Ie drying clothes even quicker. The air-con is very noisy & can be loud through the night, my advice is switch it off or bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Free WiFi all round the complex but a very temperamental signal. Staff are amazing. Samuel (cream waistcoat) the restaurant manger is an amazing people person. Makes you feel welcome and can offer great insight on places to go. The restaurant/bar staff all want to make your time here a good experience. At night (8pm) the young lady offers a 30-40 minutes children’s dance (baby Shark etc). Again a bit loud for us as we liked to sit outside to eat but as far away from the music/speaker. Then there is live music (covers of old and not so old songs). We didn’t feel pressured to move on from our table, after eating. It seemed more guests wanted to eat inside the air conditioned restaurant areas. Beach towels can be hired from reception and safe deposit key for the safe deposit box in the rooms. Room locks are PIN code entrance which saved having to carry a key but you do need to memorise the code or like me, refer to your phone/picture. There is a small gym & treatment rooms, we didn’t use these on our stay. Didn’t see any launderette facility & there wasn’t a kettle in our room. There is a hair dryer in the bathroom though! We only went into Maspolmas once to the shops & for lunch. The restaurants have the manager stood outside trying to draw you in, I’ve always found this off putting. This time, I just pointed to my all inclusive wristband, imitated I’m already full, smiled and walked on, this made them leave us alone. Nice shops with designer clothes and perfumes etc. There’s also the beach, sand dunes and bird sanctuary nearby. I ran to the town & back a few times, it was very hot but be careful of the very poor tiled pavements & high kerbs. We really enjoyed a trip to Puerto de Mogán, a pretty fishing village/town with harbour and beach. Decided to get a taxi there and back €40 each way. Friday is market day & apparently very busy, we went on a Tuesday. Finally we would return to this resort, we met two other families that were returning for the second time. This speaks volumes. We had an amazing relaxing holiday here.
