Flamingo Oasis Benidorm Hotel Reviews
" Great Entertainment Staff "
Submitted By: The-ChattsTeesside
We've just arrived back yesterday and we had a good time. The best part was the evening entertainment, really enjoyed El Divo and the hotel staff shows like Grease, Mamma Mia and Musical Medley. Same guys do the daytime games as well.
The food was good somedays, and other days not so good. You could see all the fat on the meat dishes. I know they like to put a good choice of dishes out, but when we saw a slice of toast with a pineapple ring in the middle covered by melted cheese this didn't appeal to us at all. And as for the breakfasts, next to the eggs, bacon and sausages were trays of sweetcorn, cauliflower and carrots. We were told that the original chef had just left the Flamingo Oasis to go and work at the Flamingo Benidorm. Let's hope the new chef offers better choices soon.
The rooms were great, very spacious and clean, great size bathroom. My advice for future guests is to pull the telephones out at bedtime, there is one in the room and one next to the toilet. The first two nights of our holiday someone was ringing our extension around 3am and then they would hang up. So I just pulled them out of the socket.
The pool looks great, but no sun on it until about 3.30pm every day. Plenty of sunbeds piled up because everyone went to the beach. Poolside bar closed so had to walk up the many steps to the only bar open during the day, dress code at this bar as well, you had to wear t-shirts and footwear, definately not wet straight from pool.
My daughter said it was the best holiday she'd ever had. She met up with other kids and they hung out in the games room every evening. We only saw her at mealtimes, bedtimes or when she wanted some euros for the machines.
Apart from these issues it was a good holiday, even though the weather was poor until our last day. And yes it does need a bit or refurbishment, but this does not not spoil your enjoyment of the hotel.

" terrible "
Submitted By: cathy1
I stayed at his hotel from 12/09/2009 to 26/09/2009 with friends and there family and children. The hotel was good for children and the entertainment staff were brill but as for everything else it was terrible.
Brocken mirrors in the wardrobe, rust round bath. furniture seen better days.
The pool bar was closed after first week and when guests complained we were advised end of season there was nothing in any brochure or internet sight that said any of this. and there winter season does not start until nov,
The food in the restaurant was always just warm unless you were there for the food just being put out and it was very repetative. The bar staff were not friendly what so ever.
The rooftop pool which was advertised as being available to adults only is now only available to gold club guests. chairs and beds at pool area are needing replaced as a lot of them are broken.
The pool is only cleaned with a small net and we did not see anyone doing water tests on pool. would not recommend this as 4star as i have been to better 3star costs an arm and a leg. definately not worth the money.

This is the best hotel in Benidorm!
I have stayed at this hotel on three seperate occasions with and without children and would recommend to anyone. This hotel caters for the younger children through to the older traveller. Any one who says the food is like slop are "idiots" and people who say the workers within the hotel don't like you having children are again "idiots". The waitors are always welcoming to children (aged 3 & 4) and always seem to have time for you even though they work long days. The pool area is clean and looked after and the rooms are cleaned daily and in excellent condition. Never had problems with rubbish being removed from my room , the cleaner did everything that was asked , so people would complain at perfection. If you want to go to Benidorm , choose this hotel has everything , entertainment A* , food A* , staff A* and room A* cannot wait to go back August 2009.
Saw a few hen & stag groups but they kept themselves to themselves then walked into the town , some people like to be among the living dead when on holiday , your on holiday your going to get some NOISE ! ! !

Submitted By: mrsricksen
Just arrived home today from the Flamingo Oasis, Beautiful Hotel! Rooms spotless, cleaned every day, Bathroom huge, Food lovely, only one lunch time we didnt like anything, but made do with Chips! Reception is beautiful and so clean, plenty lifts as we were on the 16th floor and didnt need to wait long!
Pools great, the only thing that didnt give this hotel a 10 is there is no tables round the pool, not everyone likes sunbeds, this is the only complaint I had with this Hotel.
Entertainment Staff are superb, and do all there own Shows, "We Will Rock You" Queen, "Grease" & "Dirty Dancing" to name a few, they were fantastic and so friendly! Especially Andy!!!! He was so good with the kids!
Only Hotel that ive been to that theres no noise in the coridors, doors slamming, kids running about is unheard of upstairs. Mostly a Family Hotel.
Id recommend this Hotel to anyone, but beware Spain is costly now, eat before you go to airport as we got charged £4 for a sandwich and £3.50 for a small coke as flight was before Breakfast!
8/10 for this Hotel, please get some Tables & Chairs round the pool!!!!!!

" Amazing "
Submitted By: RachaelG
After reading some of the horrible reviews before I went, I thought the holiday was going to be a nightmare, How wrong they were. This hotel was fantastic and the staff and entertainment staff were really good. I went with my husband and 2 children aged 7 & 3 and I think it was the best holiday we have had in a while. The rooms are clean and spacious the food was great, different choice every night and for the children day and night entertainment was great. The pool and pool area was cleaned everynight and day before it opened. The beach was a 10 min walk and was clean, the sand was a bit hot to walk on but once you got in to the sea it was fine. You get ripped off of you buy any drinks off the men on the beach as there charge 2 euros for a coke but you can get it from the shop at the top of the beach for 50 cents. The shops were nice and the market was massive. All in all fantastic holiday will be going again next year but for 2 weeks.
I dont know why people were conplaining about the stag and hen groups coming in to the hotel as I saw 3 groups and there did not once make any noise to loud to annoy you just sat had a drink watched entertainment and went down the town. I think some people just want a very quiet holiday with no noise but if thats what you want book a villa.

Submitted By: xxplayxboy
I think this hotel is amazing and we are deff going again. I have 3 children of 15,14 and 5 and think it was amazing for them. The entertainment throughout the day and evening was great. And so what if you have to get up a bit earlier to put towels on your sunbeds if u want a specific spot then you dont have a choice. Its a holiday the point of it is to be up and about not laying in bed. Go to this hotel i highly recommend it :). The food was amazing my kids loved eating all the food. Throughout the day there was food all the time which was great.
What i would say is if you have young children i would ask for a low floor seeing as the lifts can be a nightmare when you have to wait. My daughter who is 15 doesnt like heights and is claustraphobic so was using the stairs all the time which was a nightmare expecially for her.
The shops are brilliant just outside
and we found no need to go to the beach as the hotel and swimming pool was fantastic.
I really would go there if you like this sort of thing.
The staff were friendly and it was very clean.
I wouldnt recommend terra mitica the theme park.
it really wasnt the best and it looked like it needed a major update.
My children really didnt enjoy it and hardly anyone spoke english which was tricky.
Overall it was fantastic and i would recommend if you have children
My older two a boy and a girl enjoyed it and theyr teenagers so it was great.

" hell yeah "
Submitted By: val carter
Hello there anyone considering a stay at the flamingo oasis, is in for a treat! The rooms are fantastic spacious and really clean! Food really nice especially the desserts wow! There are a couple of things to consider though. One really irritating thing is the tv,s in the rooms they are set too high in volume and people dont turn them down! Also think this hotel makes no provisions for small children, regarding food and amenities! Also if you are a poor walker like me you will find the location of this hotel difficult! Plenty of public transport and taxis though, this is the reason i awarded a nine! Other than that cannot fault this hotel! would definatly return to this hotel! I previously stayed at the orange and castilla 3 times flamingo oasis knocks the socks off them! give it a go you wont regret it, it is definatly value for money, its around 15 mins walk to beach! The thomson reps are helpful and interested also reception staff are very helpful and polite! All staff are nice! The entertainment is good at hotel too! Plenty of well organised trips from the hotel and a full range of activities well organised! One draw back about benidorm though is the smoking in all the bars! Absolutly disgusting this put me off benidorm! For future holidays, but guess we will be back at some point!knowing us because the entertainment in benidorm is amazing! Enjoy if you go!!!!!!
Advice: Benidorm has a lot more to offer than just clubs and bars get out and see the scenery its amazing
Activities: guedalest is wonderful, so are the citrus groves, go see them for yourself

" Great Time "
Submitted By: Kaka
This was one of the best hotels i have ever took my family to and i have been all over the world. The entertainment was fantastic, so good that we never left the hotel at nights as we have seen benidorm before loads of times, the food was excellent and always a great selection and dinning room was always clean. Rooms were big and well equipped. i especially liked the way that we recieved picture key crads that weorked as your all inclusive ticket. The safe was expensive at 20e per week. The indoor swimming pool was a treat and the Thomas Cook's reps were very helpful and were always askin if there was anything else they could do for us. Finally there is nothing bad that i could say about this accomadation i was very impressed.
Advice: Very Busy
Activities: The beach is nice and i would highly recomend Terra Natura

" Good Value "
Submitted By: Jetter
We visited this hotel from 3rd March / 10 March. Check in was quick and efficient, in fact we found all the staff to be polite and friendly and very helpful should you need it. The rooms are large and clean,the maid changed the towels every day and the bed once. The bar offered a good A/I selection , with free bottles of water and bottles of wine if you wanted to go and sit on the balcony and enjoy the view. The food in the restaurant was very good ,with a carved meat every day as well as a good selection of meats ,veg,salad and all the rest to suit most peoples taste,at dinner the cake selection was wonderful and if you are watching your weight the best thing to do is don't go and look or you will be tempted!!!!! The hotel is a bit back from the front,but it''s a pleasant walk when the weathers nice, we had a stormy day with high winds and this made walking unpleasant and should it rain, that walk seems a long way back. This hotel offers good value for money, although why some people bother flying to Benidorm when they can sit in the bar all day and night drinking at home beats me, also there was quite a few hen parties in and lots of young people , at this time of year I expected people of a similar age to us or even older.

if you hire a mobility scooter other than the on they recomend then they charge you 3 euro's a day for electricity.the beer is flat and tastless the foods not to bad but could be better.
entertanment was rubish mostly for the kids, not a lot to do in this hotel but to go out
