Dorotea Apartments 2 stars

The Dorotea Apartments are located in a great spot, just a short walk to the stunning golden sandy beach and the main attractions that the resort of Playa de ingles is known for.

Guests that are keen golfers have a choice of three golf courses that are just a short taxi ride away and also offer shoes and golf clubs for a small hire fee.

The beach is close by where the whole family can enjoy their day; whether taking part in the fun watersports or just relaxing on one of the many sun loungers that are scattered along the beach.

The local bus stops close by and there are a number of different bus routes that run through the resort to take you across the other side of the island to resorts such as Puerto Rico and the island's capital Las Palmas.

The complex has a spacious reception lobby with comfortable seating and the multilingual staff are available at limited times throughout the day and evening offering assistance in services such as currency exchange, luggage storage, tourist information and excursion ticket sales for organised tours around the island and fun family days out to places such as the aqua park and city shopping trips.

There is a large swimming pool with a surrounding sun terrace with many sun loungers that are spaciously placed and ample parasols are included.

The poolside bar offers a friendly service and is available for guests to enjoy a large variety of drinks and snacks at the patio area or maybe a cocktail or two whilst the children are having fun in the kid's pool, the playground or having a game of pool at the patio area.

Because of its great location, guests do not need to go too far to enjoy the large selection of bars and restaurants as well as the many family entertainment establishments that welcome all age groups for a fun evening of live music, cabaret shows and karaoke.

The apartments are spacious and bright with lots of storage option. Each apartment has a lounge area with a sofa bed, TV, kitchen, private bathroom, a bedroom with a double or twin beds and a furnished balcony or terrace with fabulous views.

The Dorotea Apartments offer basic accommodation and would ideally suit holidaymakers on a budget or anyone just looking for a base for their lively holiday in Gran Canaria.
