We got back from our week in Gran Caneria on the 1st October. Had one of the best holidays ever in the Vista Dorada.

The food was excellent with a large variety every night.

Maid service was also very good.

Location was not very good especially if you have children but we hired a car at a very cheap rate.

Hotel staff were lovely and very friendily. But the one thing that made our holiday was the reps and the entertainment they were excellent, especially Paul and Alex. I put my little girl in the kids group were Alex was and she had a ball.

I would most definitely visit this hotel again and I'm sure I will.

We have just come back 31 of august from a two week holiday here and can't praise the place enough! it was fantastic! the rooms were spotless, and have been refurbished, to a really nice standard and is a really family friendly place. There were only 2 cockroaches (which were dead outside) which we saw, (having read the really bad reports on the rooms and Cockroaches)the reps are fantastic!! and on the theft report, we left our video camera in the dineing room and someone handed it in. the food is excellent and has a different theme each night. One of the best holidays we have ever been on!!!

Arrived at the hotel as part of a destination on arrival deal and was very disappointed. The location was no good for three young girls it was more of a family place.

The room smelt like damp and had not been aired and there was a dead cockroach on the floor the night we arrived. We did not spend a lot of time in the room as we kept finding cockroaches so spent most of the time travelling into Playa.

The pool area was unclean and not very welcoming.

This is definitely not a resort for young people looking for a fun holiday more suitable to families.

The hotel was also a bus ride away from the nearest beach

just back today 19th june from my 2 weeks here and i have to give it a big thumbs up.i was dreading going here after the reports i had read on here but an excellent holiday was had by all the family.

Accomadation:apartments are quite basic,i had a duplex style apartment,2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms a large living area and a kitchen with a hob,toaster,kettle and fridge freezer,upstairs main bedroom had a balcony and we had a large garden mainly slabbed,table and chairs and also 4 sunloungers for our own use.The beds are quite firm and i didnt get a full nights sleep over the 2 weeks but im always like that on holiday(prefer my own bed),the bedding had seen better days,quite old fashioned but clean,same goes for the towels but the maid was in 5 days out of seven so i didnt have any cause for complaint over its cleanliness.
Hotel staff:very helpfull,special mention to luci on reception she is wonderful,always willing to help,we had originally gone s.c but upgraded to half board after a few days which cost us 401 euros for 5 of us,which we thought was a great price.

Food:1st week we couldnt fault it ,bbq night on wednesdays is very good,and they do different themes each night,but word of warning they use pork every single night by end of 2nd week we were quite sick looking at it,2nd week we didnt think the meals were as good as 1st but maybe thats because we were getting a bit fed up with it ,but on a whole it was fine and we never heard of anyone with sickness after eating in restaurant.

Reps:cant rate them highly enough,they worked so hard especially the 2 lauras on entertainment,we had a really good laugh with them and we all had a tear in our eyes when we had to leave,london laura included,alex and elle are the creche reps and they are so nice,my 3 boys went to childrens club and loved it, they work really hard for so little and they deserve a bit of praise.

Pool: now here is my only complaint...there is a blue surround around the pool which is very slippy ,i dont know how many people i witnessed slipping and falling on it,my husband included,he slipped and banged his head on it,complained to mike the airtours rep and he faxed off an incident report to head office,but was the entertainment reps who said they were reporting it to there own health and safety officers (wait and see if anything comes of it) as they werent too happy about it either.but apart from that we had a great time round the pool most days,kids loved it.

Cockroachs: and onto the dreaded roaches.........can honestly say we only seen 1 and that was in our apartment(must state it was very dead lol),friends we had went with were on a lower level and they had seen a few on there patio and had 1 in there room ,didnt hear to many horror storys round the pool cant have been too bad in other rooms.

So all in all i can say we loved it there and wouldnt hesitate to go back but would book direct with hotel as you can ask for a certain room to be reserved(in my case it would be 56b as it is one of best there).So anyone going please dont be put off with reports as i was dreading it and im petrified of anything smaller than a yorkshire terrier so roaches had me in cold sweats but ended up not being a problem.

I love the Vista Dorada Apartments, fantastic.

My first stay was in December 2002, it was named on arrival, and I'm so glad I got to hear about this place.

The food is fantastic, the staff are great, infact that good thatI made a new friend out of it all! Anyone who goes just ask for Mario, the best waiter in the resort!!!

The apartments are clean and spacious and the view from the balcony is top class.

I went back in June the following year, bringing with me my mum and Aunt for the week, as I went on so much about the place and the people I met who worked there, they had to see for themselves, and they loved it!! They enjoyed the Entertainment at night and while they were watching the shows, I got to go downstairs to the late bar and have a drink or two with my pals!!
