" great holiday,great hotel "
Submitted By: pete hThe bar staff were very friendly and helpful as were all the staff,especially Derek,well liked and popular with adults and children.
The hotel is very clean and well maintained with very good swimming pools,bar,and sun lounge areas,it is literally a flight of steps away from a fantastic beach with clear clean sea,very safe for children and adults,surrounded by lovely scenary,town has a few shops and bars and restaurants and is very low key and quiet.a good bus service at a reasonable rate takes you to either Ibiza or St Eullia,or boat which is considerable dearer.
I would recommend this to families and people who want a relaxing holiday away from all the loud night life.

" Great Holiday "
Submitted By: CharCharxAnother great holiday - acept for the weather.
The hotel staff are lovley, exspecially Antonio in the reception bar
and the hotel entertainers, who would invite us down to the local bars with on a night.
Mainly Remo!
The only annoying thing this year was the photographers, who got bugging after a while, taking your pictures all the time.
The rooms are basic, but clean.
And gorgeous views, Unless your situated over the car park!
( if you've been more then once, ask for V.I.P and you can choose your room!)
as for the food, it is pretty much a mixture, but it is a buffet, and theres alot of choice to suit everyone.
I would reccomend going all inclusive, as theres not alot of restraunts in Cala Llonga anymore!
Boat trips to Es Cana, Ibiza Town e.c.t are worth going on!

Submitted By: Mr S E WilliamsOur room was quite small and the double bed we requested appeared to have been sawn in half upon our arrival, we also had a fabulous view of the car park. We arrived at around 6.00am and we were advised that a manager would be able to find us another room with a double bed the next day, however we decided to simply push the beds together and accept the room we were given for the week, as we did not plan to spend much time in our room. The weather then unfortunately dictated that we were to spend slightly more time in our room than we would have preferred, please consider in this circumstance that the T.V has only 2 English speaking channels ( BBCworld news and CBeebies/BBC3).
They are several very complimentary reviews about the food at this hotel on this website and we had hoped that the food would at least be OK. My wife in particular found the food overall very disappointing. At breakfast they were days when the food was cold, beans were not cooked, bread/croissants had mould, mushrooms did not resemble any mushrooms I have ever eaten and every day was the same. They did though have an omelette station. Dinner apart from the occasional nice piece of fish or pork at the carvery was of very poor quality and this experience of going half board for the first time means that we will only consider returning to a Spanish hotel on a self-catering basis. You can go All-Inclusive for £20.00 pppn, although in hindsight we were very pleased that we did not 'upgrade'.
The drinks in the hotel are reasonably priced given the poor conversion of the pound/euro. A bottle of San Miguel or a glass of house wine is about 2 euros and a generously served vodka and mixer is around 3-4 euros, certainly no more expensive than our local. The entertainment is hotel based and we enjoyed most of it, in particular it seems quite popular with children of all ages. Although not to our preference the hotel do also provide entertainment during the day and we agree with the positive reviews of the hotel entertainers, particularly Rene.
We went to the 'welcome meeting' on the morning of our arrival and we decided to go on the Sunset Cruise to experience what we were reliably informed was the second best sunset in the world. It rained on the Tuesday postponing the Sunset Cruise until the Thursday. The catamaran was more like a run-down ferry and we were not impressed. Due to cloud and light rain we did not really get to see much of a sunset, however we found the guide both informative and entertaining in the circumstances. After around 45-60 mins round trip of looking through the could and trying to imagine a beautiful sunset we tried to relax and drank our cava from a plastic cup whilst returning to the harbour. We were advised that our reps (2) would be taking us to a nearby family friendly bar. Conveniently, as we overheard the reps were wanting to celebrate a colleagues birthday we were informed upon returning that this bar was closed and they were going to go off somewhere else. They advised everyone to make their own arrangements and to meet by the waterfall in a couple of hours. This didn't impress anyone (particularly those with young children) and we got the impression that no-one enjoyed the rest of their evening. Rather than join the guests in interrogating the reps we went off together and managed to have a romantic drink or two at a nice bar near the harbour. We also thought that they must have been aware that the weather in San Antonio was not going to be good enough in evening for the cruise to go ahead, I would be very surprised if anyone would have gone in hindsight.
Overall we would consider going back to Ibiza sometime in the future, although we would not consider the Playa Dorada or a half board holiday. The nice food at most of the local restaurants and the choice available at local shops would be sufficient for a week or two self catering on what is a beautiful island. My wife also returned with food poisoning, although we are not sure if this is from the hotel breakfast on our last day or a nearby resort restaurant.

Submitted By: Miss Charlotte Gittens" Very disappointed in standard of food... "
Submitted By: Mrs J QuirkeArea around the childrens paddling pool were not kept as clean as they should have been, with litter and cigerette ends lying about for days.
Room we had on 5th floor was very noisy being near the lift and next to the cleaner's room where they seemed to stop overnight on some nights and if our bathroom door was open we could hear them very clearly talking.
Cala Llonga is very pretty but 10 mins and you have walked all round it. Trips on the boats to other resorts are worthwhile but expensive. Local bus service seemed to be a cheaper alternative.

Submitted By: Miss N ShahPlenty to do, there are a number of pools for kids and adults, and the beach is just at your doorstep. The rooms were extremely clean especially for my standards and the house keeping staff are very friendly. They could do with a few more parasols with the sunbeds. I found myself having to wake up early and lay my towel on sunbeds with a parasol as the midday sun is unrelenting and if you got stuck without one it wasnt great.
I wanted a sea view room but didnt get one sadly, however, I asked at reception and amazingly a day later when one became free we were moved and I can say the view was stunning. If you do get a non sea view room I recommend being extra nice to reception and im sure they will move you.
Food at the restaurant is great. The food does become more or less the same or similar things from day to day so dont go nuts on trying everything in the first couple of days or you might be a bit disappointed later on in the week. The variety is great though. Kids will find something they like.
Hotel provides entertainment every night which is good fun. You really dont need to leave the hotel. They provide things for kids to do during the day too so parents can relax kids free for a few hours.
One down side is that there are only two small lifts but i was happy to use the stairs for some exercise! if you have small kids you may find yourself waiting for a while specially during peak times like brekkie and dinner! restaurant , reception and rooms are all on differnt floors, so if you are on a low floor just use the stairs!!
the beach is OK by my standards. nothing like sri lanka anyway!! there are jelly fish so most days there is no swimming...or at your own risk while we were there anyway.
ADVICE....go all inclusive! food is expensive and so are drinks and icecream. do not go half board and then all inclusive when you get to the hotel because they will charge you 20 euros per day per person. 12 for kids. and this does not include drinks with evening meal - soft or alcoholic!
If you are looking for different beaches to go to, take a bus to Es Cana or Santa Euralia. they both have lovely beaches too. buses can add up to alot so you probably wouldnt want to do it every day.
PLEASE do not buy spanish chocolate from duty free or spanish biscuits for that matter . they are disgusting! i ended up wasting alot of money and all of it went in the bin.
Ok so over all the holiday was lovely and would go back to this hotel anyday. it was worth the money spent.
" We went to Cala Llonga for 1week, it... "
Submitted By: danny94The Playa Dorada hotel was excellent. They had lots of choice at meals and plenty for children. The rooms had a very good air-con system, We all enjoyed the stay and i would defernetly recomend it to familys with children. The staff are really friendly i would help you with everything. There is buses to Ibiza town,Bossa (which has a waterpark) and it goes lots of other places for really cheap. i would give it 9/10.
" 2 Adults and two children 15 and 12.... "
Submitted By: Mrs C BakerJust returned having spent 2 weeks at the hotel. It was absolutely fabulous. Even though we were on floor 7 our balcony more than compensated for such a high floor. The balcony was at the front of the hotel and was huge. Sun all day. You got a panoramic view of the bay.It was fab.
The rooms were very clean and they were cleaned frequently. The curtain came down one morning and we advised reception and they fixed it in no time at all which was good.
I can not comment on other peoples reports about hearing people in the next room due to the location of our room. It was beside the lift and we thought we would hear it all night which we did not which was great.
There was two pools and a part separated off for smaller children so they do not go out of there depth. There are plenty of sunbeds but if you wanted one right beside the pool you would have to get up early to reserve your place.
The food was nice and plenty to choose from. We did not have breakfast but this was mainly due to the fact we were all inclusive and chose to have lunch instead.
Plenty of activities to take part in and the water polo when down well with guests. there is air rifle shooting, yoga,pilates, darts, pool, table tennis and beach football. There was also aqua areobics. I was there during the olympics so they even had an olympic day on the beach which included a sack race. The entertainment staff came round shouting what activity was on so no one would miss out. The entertainment staff were great and very friendly. Remo in particualr was great with the kids, very friendly and full of energy and enthusiam. Joly was great as well.
Even though cala llonga is a quiet place there are plenty of bars and restaurants to go to. Mister Cairos showbar is worth a visit and open late. The hypnotist was great. The stand up bingo is fun as well.
Bus service frequent so a trip to ibiza town is worth a visit. Even took a trip to san antonio (bus to ibiza town and a connecting bus from there). You can even go to ibiza town by boat.
This hotel is aimed at families and couples who do not want the hustle and bustle of a larger place. Staff are friendly and reception staff were helpful. i would go back to this hotel and it is highly recommended.
