Review title: "Well Worth The Cost"
Travel date: June 2009
Arrived at the Playa Dorada late at night to fresh food in fridge. All inclusive drinks great. Unlimited self serve beer, wine, soft drinks and water. Two flavours of slush and four flavours of ice cream available all day long. We went with our kids aged five and six and they loved it.

Food pretty average for all inclusive in Spain but plentiful, hot and fresh. Lovely desserts and soups. Always found something to eat. Pizza and cakes on bar at 5 p.m. each day and despite no snack bar, it was never a problem as the restaurant is open for nine hours per day.

Had a great one bedroom apartment. Very clean and fresh towels and cleaning five days per week. Massive balcony, great pool and sea view and loads of space.

Staff very friendly and helpful, especially the bar staff. Entertainment poor but kids' disco each night for half hour. Couple of good nights of entertainment - bowling tournament weekly and excellent magic show and variety show by the entertainment staff. Other nights were always a quiz which got a bit repetitive.

Pool fantastic. Kids' club open four hours per day and kids free to come and go as they pleased. Infrequent daytime activities - seemed to be cancelled a lot of the time but a great location right next to the beach and shops.

If you have kids, try the magic fun park around the corner in an evening - trampolines, bouncy castle, mini golf, train, rides, bungees etc. all very reasonably priced and it has its own bar which served drinks and snacks very reasonable in price.

If you want to eat out, try 'Fawlty Towers' in s'Illot or the 'Britannia' pub in Sa Coma. All in all a fantastic holiday had by all.
