Arrived on a Tuesday afternoon, reception very clean and very helpful and friendly staff.



Had to pay £80.00 deposit on room which was expected anyway. We were put on the 21st floor which again was ok.

I’ve just got back from Benidorm today and was looking at the comments people had left on the Flamingo Playa apartments. As most of you thought it was naff as well, I thought I’d leave my comments for you.

When me and my partner went to Flamingo in 2003 and 2004, we enjoyed it very much.

I must say for the price I paid it was the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Why are some many people writing bad reviews about petty things like air con? Pay more if you want more! Excellent service from staff and reps, they were much better than the... read more

I thought this hotel was fantastic. It was ideal for myself, brother and friend. Everybody had a smile on their faces. You get what you pay for. People know the rating of the hotel before they go. Don’t moan if its not superb.
