Hotel Coronas Playa

19th visit to this hotel which says a lot. Thanks to wonderful staff Caroline Sarah and all reception staff, Nati and all wonderful resturant staff, bar staff and room cleaning staff a big thank you to you all. It's like a second home to us and will be back next year, highly recommend to anyone looking for a lovely relaxing break.

We went end august first week September room was big we went for select room sunbeds on balcony we had sunin the afternoon didn't find any fault with food pools were cold but once in it was fine they are heating bottom pool which will be ready in November has for ages of people there were younger than us there it's only 20 minute walk into Costa teguise or taxi 3 euro

Got back Thursday 5th September after staying in this hotel for 2 weeks since 22nd August, This was our 3rd visit in 3 years to this hotel. Check in was faultless, very smooth and a welcome drink was given. We got the same room as we did 2 years ago and found no issues with the room other than what people have been saying about the shower, where it goes very hot at times unexpectedly. Plenty of room and balcony had the sun all day. The reps were excellent at the entertainment side of things, Alex has a tremendous voice and Mary is also very good, A big shout out to Chloe and Eleanor too who always joined in the activities. Graham, who oversees the reps is very easy to get on with and very helpful. Chris, well, absolutely superb, funny and very knowledgeable. The only downside I would say regarding a couple of the reps is that they seemed to choose who to talk to and wouldn't always chat. I was once chating to them outside the pavillion and while in the middle of a conversation they just walked off and started chatting to someone else which I found very rude. The resident Duo, Night Magic, well all I can say about them is that Jane was a superb singer and Steve kept himself in the backgroud, singing the odd song. They have now finished their term there and a new duo were due last week. The food in the restaurant was always varied and was always hot. I am a very fussy eater myself but always managed to find something to eat. The breakfast was also a massive choice, but I did find some of the breakfast food was not as hot as evening meals. I would possibly sugest they put a few microwave ovens around the reataurant so clients can warm food up if required. On to the Pavillion where the duo and other acts performed every night. There was always a quiz around 9pm and the winner goes on stage and receives a bottle of bubbly. Do not miss The Millsy Brothers if they are scheduled to perform when you are there, as they are tremendous. The way you get your drink is you sit down and you will be served at your table. I found again this year the service was ok, but could be improved. I found I was waiting a while for my glass to be re-filled on quite a few occasions. The Monkey bar service was however excellent, but the only down side to that was sometimes you were given the wrong drink, maybe lost in translation as there appeared to be new staff catering for you there. Just a side not on the lager, it is not the best. Can't remember the name of it, but last year there was Tropical and was much nicer. We only spent time at the bottom pool, which was not absolutely freezing when you got in, is was slightly chilly, but after around 10 seconds you acclimatised to the temperature and was fine after that. I played water polo and volleyball, but the polo was way more fun. The bars at the pools were very good and the snacks just what you need. The pizza that the top pool does is large, therefore best to share one if you are a couple, as 2 will be far too much. There are plenty of sun beds to go around, some are not covered though. If you try to reserve your beds before 10am there is a good chance your towels wil not be there when you go back, as the lifeguard removes them if you are not there before this time. There was a big mix of young and old the 1st week we were there, but someone must have pushed a button the 2nd week, as it was very much the older generation who arrived then and ahardly a youngster to be seen! We are looking to return again next year, as overall the hotel was excellent, the windy conditions are no fault of the hotels, nor is the lack of sun at times. I have seen this mentioned by others numerous times when really there is no need for it.
