We stayed here this week nearly 10 years after our first visit.The hotel has added an extra sun terrace and 2nd gym room. The staff are still fantastic. Overall good value and nice vibe. That said...do bring earplugs...a couple of new bars have opened in the previously near-derelict La Sandia centre next door, including one on the terrace above a swinger bar and the music was loud/bad/late on a couple of nights.

The room was very clean. The staff went out of their way to help. Breakfast was very good.

Excellent staff who couldn’t do enough to help. Great pool with no shortage of sun beds. Easy service at the bar with no queues.

Amazing hotel , ideal location , adults only pool space was amazing , food was fabulous for breakfast , lunch & dinner . Would recommended to anyone. Only fault is the twin beds were slightly uncomfortable and had wheels on .

The hotel was really nice, the rooms were very clean as was the pool area. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was great, so much to choose from every day.

Last minute holiday and so glad we picked GOLD. Perfect hotel with a nice vibe. Adults only so very chilled. We loved the long pool with the cabanas. Perfect sun trap for tanning and dipping in the shallow pool and when you wanted a bit of shade the cabanas provided just that. Breakfast was brilliant especially being available until 12. I am not usually one for breakfast but ate it everyday it was so good! The food outside of breakfast is also delicious. Loved the Pad Thai and Prawn Tacos. Conveniently close to the Yumbo and beach for dining and drinking options. Also close to bus stops for trips to other towns and beaches. Supermarket right next door with everything you need for you room or day trips. We stayed in a terrace room and was excellent being able to nip in and out from the pool and lounge around in the afternoon sun. Having never been to Gran Canaria I was really pleasantly surprised and will definitely book to stay again at this hotel. Many thanks to all the staff for a great stay!

Authentic Review: Stay between the 14th and 21st of June We stayed at this hotel during mid-June. Although the hotel classifies itself as four-star, I would personally rate it more as a three-star property. The staff were friendly. However, we requested a late checkout and were advised that we would need to pay €50 to stay longer. Breakfast was of good quality, with a decent selection. The hotel is extremely well located, especially for those wanting to enjoy the Benidorm experience—it’s within walking distance to the beach. I can only imagine that during peak season, the hotel would be very busy and it might be difficult to find available sunbeds. That said, it was refreshing during our stay to see no one reserving sunbeds with towels early in the morning. There was a good mix of age groups staying here. Fortunately, there was no loud music around the pool, allowing people to sunbathe and relax in peace. If you’re looking for a more upscale experience in the same general area, I would highly recommend checking out Lopesan Costa Meloneras Resort & Spa, which is a genuine five-star hotel. It’s about a 7–10 minute taxi ride away (€10). As for our current hotel, Golden by Marina markets itself as a freestyle experience but it’s not a full four-star as advertised. The room had a basic electric stove, fridge-freezer, and cooking utensils, making it more suitable for self-catering.

Friendly staff , upgraded room , clean , accesible , included breakfast , services

Will be back! Was a lovely stay thanks to all the amazing staff

Lovely quiet adults only hotel within easy walking distance of Yumbo Centre, Cita Centre and Playa del Inglés beach.

A delightful modern resort with amazing staff and close to the Yumbo

WOW .. .! this property is Excellent, it's a stylish, it's clean and fresh and the staff are wonderful. The location is perfect with easy access to the area either by foot or by transport. The rooms are spotless and well appointed. The breakfast offering is excellent and service is certainly with a smile.. Check it out.

Always stay at this hotel, great staff, great rooms

The staff were very welcoming and friendly. They were always happy to help with advice and suggestions. The room was comfortable and a great size. The breakfast was fantastic and the restaurant is well worth a visit.

Great adults only hotel, modern, clean and peaceful. Staff were all very friendly and helpful

I stayed as part of a group of friends and the hotel couldn’t be better. The staff were friendly from my check in to check out. The pool area had ample beds, plenty of pool towels and beautiful tasteful decor all around. The rooms were large and with own kitchenette area was great for catering for breakfasts/mid afternoon snacks. There was a few supermarkets just two minutes walk from the hotel so even better. Would come back to Gran Canaria to just stay at this hotel!

Such a lovely, serene, quiet hotel, right in the centre of town, not that you’d know it. Super close to the Yumbo and the beach. Great staff, fabulous breakfast, wonderful cocktails and our room had everything we needed. Highly recommend staying here.

very clean and tidy and the staff are very friendly and helpful

I’ve stayed at this hotel 4 times now and would never hesitate to stay here everytime I come back to the island, yes it is a little expensive but worth the money.
