The 10 best hotels in Playa del Ingles, Spain

August 20, 2022 Myesha Cogley

LGBT travelers, families with kids, au naturel sunbathers, honeymooners, groups of young singles… there’s a spot for everybody on the beach here (and a hotel or apartment for every budget).

Excellent staff

Reviewed By adnan117

I always have an excellent time at this place. Good location near the Yumbo. There is a great vibe in the hotel and at the poolside, and the new weekly pool party with DJ Lucky is a fantastic addition. The hotel gym is good enough for a week stay. Some cardio equipment, a Smith's machine, a bench, some free weights. Everything you might need to prevent gym withdrawal! The breakfast might seem basic compared to some bigger hotels but I have always found it to suffice. The snacks that are available during the day / light lunch menu are ok if you really can't manage going out anywhere or cooking anything yourself. The staff are absolutely amazing and seem to remember returning faces. Carmen at the front desk has always been a delight, so friendly and helpful. Dani who is a fairly recent addition is equally as helpful and friendly. They all make you feel really at ease. There was a new recruit Dayana who I hope becomes a permanent member too. Prices do go up significantly during pride. For some people this may not be worth it but I stayed the whole week and the whole experience seemed worth it. Definitely more cost-effective to stay here outside of pride weeks.

Perfect Holiday In A Perfect Hotel

Reviewed By Getaway783017

Always a pleasure to return for a stay at the well run Corillium Dunamar Hotel by Lopesan. From the friendly welcome at reception to the restaurant service and room maids I enjoyed the perfect holiday in a perfect hotel. Particular praise must go out to Yurena the 12th floor room maid who with her friendly smiling face was always very efficent doing a job which I'm sure cannot be easy but well done Yurena because such hotel's like Corillium Dunamar need Staff like you. I stayed on a half board basis and was very satisfied with the buffet fare on offer, okay it must be said that at times hot food was near cold but a microwave was at hand for reheating the plate if required. The restaurant Staff were very efficent in (sometimes to efficient) in clearing the tables even when still sat at them for an empty plate, bowl, glass etc were soon taken away for cleaning. If I have one negative thing to mention though not concerning the hotel itself, was the very loud music which seemed to be coming from one or bars just 50m opposite situated in the annexco II center. But such a problem was in no way the fault of the Corillium Dunamar for which I was informed regularly ask the local Police visit the bars concerned for getting thez music turned down. So wrapping up this avis for my stay I can honestly say I enjoyed a Perfect Holiday in a Perfect Hotel anbd I look forwarded to returning very soon. I should also point out that the Hotel is disabled friendly allowing Wheelchair acces to the rooms & restaurant area etc

Good hotel. Not blown away, though. The sun loungers need replacing - you can feel the metal frame through the sagging material. The food is excellent although no filter coffee was available after breakfast. The room was great but the air conditioning did not go below 20 degrees. We also had to pay €30 extra to stay past 12pm on our last day!

Lovely Stay - needs a few tweaks

Reviewed By rhinocheeks

We booked our holiday through Jet 2 Holidays originally for 2 people. 3 weeks before the holiday we tagged on our 18 year old son at considerable cost (£800+ for one week) on the understanding that he would have a sofa bed. On arrival – we arrived very late on the Sunday evening we were disappointed to find that there was no bed /sofa bed in the small lounge area. On ringing reception the host was very apologetic but as the resort was fully booked could not give us another bungalow. On first impression the bungalow was quite dark and dingy, and the furnishings in dire need of upgrading – lots of chips/damage on tables, chairs, units etc. To be honest at this point I wanted to leave as felt that we had been pushed to the back of the resort in the worst bungalow, no bed for our son only a few sheets left on the sofa. As were were tired we rested up to tackle in the morning. The next day first thing staff were sent to the bungalow and they did everything they could to make sure my son had a comfortable sleeping are with mattress toppers and pillows etc for the remainder of the stay. Despite the furnishings being under par the place was immaculately clean, the bedroom and bathroom area was very good. The kitchen was basic with microwave, fridge, hobs etc – which we didn’t use. The outside terrace was ok but we did not get sun at any point during the day. The grounds and pool area were well kept and we enjoyed most days round the pool it was very quiet just how we like it. The Yumbo centre was around 5 minutes walk from the front of the property – we were at the back of the property and it would have been good to have a gate at the rear of the resort to get in and out as I have a few mobility problems it was ‘double distance’. Yumbo is full of bars and restaurants and shops geared very much to the gay community. Lots of drag type caberet etc. We found a lovely little place on our last couple of days ‘the English bakery’ which served up a fabulous breakfast and looking at the menu had some great items on there different to the usual. We also walked a bit further up past the Yumbo to the RedCow/Shenanigans which hosted entertainment every night in form of family quiz, karaoke etc – great fun! The staff were great - happy/polite and accommodating, and overall the complex was really nice. We would stay again but I would request a different bungalow with more sun and closer to the pool. The issues we had with the bed situation I will be taking up with Jet 2 as it was not explained on adding my son that a bed (fit for purpose) was not provided.
