November holiday

Everything was great except the entertainment, we have stayed here on numerous occasions mainly for the exceptional and professional entertainment but this time it fell very short of that ,I except it’s been a very trying time and hope that has things get better your entertainment will also return to its usual professional standard

Entertainment? What entertainment?

I have been returning to the Flamingo Oasis regularly for the last 10 years and was a little apprehensive returning for the first time after the pandemic following some of the reviews posted. There is definitely one thing that requires urgent attention the lack of entertainment but on the whole the hotel didn’t disappoint. Check in was quick and efficient and we were greeted by the same friendly staff. The main bar area ran as efficiently as usual and the place was up to its high standards of cleanliness and good service. It was also nice to see how much lighter the bar area looked as a result of a fresh coat of paint and the addition of new chairs, with the added bonus that you no longer had to worry about catching your clothes! The addition of the gold wristband meant we could have premium spirits and bottled lager which was definitely welcomed. However, no amount of friendly staff and efficient service can make up for the negatives that require attention. In Benidorm there are lots of hotels that have had massive makeovers and become modernised and I am afraid this is where the Flamingo Oasis is beginning to look tired. The chairs by the televisions look dated - which is a bit of a prequel for the state of the rooms. There is nothing wrong with the rooms, they are spacious and practical but the bathroom we had was definitely in need of some TLC. Rust on the side of the bath, dirty mastic and a general sense that they have served their purpose. A revamp is a must for this hotel to continue to be competitive and keep its 4 star rating. The food is the same and of a very good standard and continues to be efficient and well managed but as a result of less footfall in the hotel, the food sits around more under the lights and consequently is dried up and often cold. This was notable on the cavery - the same excellent selection of meat but was often precut and sitting under the lights for too long so that, along with the gravy and the potatoes, was cold and dry. Often the meat was cut far too thick making it very difficult to chew, which was such a shame. Finally, my greatest bone of contention was entertainment or lack of. There used to be plenty of entertainment , a mini disco I understand if there are not the children it is not viable but it was October half term and the hotel was filling up, a quiz or play your cards, a Med Playa show and often an entertainment act afterwards. Sadly to call cocktail making which used to happen on an afternoon the main feature of the hotels entertainment is a sad reflection of the direction this hotel is heading . The entertainment managers head should roll for this. In addition, in the ‘Derby and Joan suite,’ which used to be packed to the rafters, sat poor Pepe entertaining 4 people of which my party made up 2! Why is such a talent still confined to an empty room? Surely putting the piano in the main bar area and having him entertain, or rigging up a different keyboard in the Fiesta suite, would prove better than sitting with 4 people. It really isnt rocket science! I’m sure people are paid a lot of money to sort out the entertainment and clearly COVID is still being used as an excuse! I do not consider a game of Kahoot entertainment. Please encourage those who are paid the big bucks to visit the town, the bars are awash with entertainers doing what they do, providing hard working holiday makers with some light hearted respite as they while away their time. What is more worrying is that if this is your first time at the hotel , you may think this standard of entertainment is the norm. What are you thinking of Flamingo Oasis??? In short, sack the entertainment team, those that cannot lead should just go, modernise the rooms and heat up the food and the hotel will return to a winning formula for decades ahead.

Great family hotel

Enjoyed a 7 night stay at Flamingo Oasis hotel with my daughter and her family. We had previously had our booking cancelled 3 times due to the pandemic but it was well worth the wait. Despite the hotel feeling very under occupied, most of the facilities were available. There was always something all of our party could find to eat at all meal times. The all inclusive drinks package had plenty of choice. We all felt the entertainment both during the day and each evening was the best we had experienced, the team and particularly Jeanette the evening compare worked tirelessly to keep the entertainment coming. The Halloween performance was exceptional, a standard I would not have expected unless on a West End Broadway theatre. Closing it off with the Tunnel of Terror was the icing on the cake. Worth booking the holiday just for that night. BRAVO!

Séjour nov 2021

Séjour très agréable avec un personnel très à lécoute quelquesoit la fonction accueil, animateur, salle de repas et dame dentretien. Seul bémol à mes yeux : le protocole covid est mis en place et clairement affiché mais certains touristes nen ont cure...

Pleased this time around

After having a previously negative experience in august we returned in October to give the hotel a second chance was glad we did. There have been a lot of improvements since august, the entertainment is getting better though still not at pre covid standard and the food is much better. We really enjoyed the Halloween night event, the staff were brilliant and the decorations and costume were fantastic. The tunnel of terror was a great end to the evening. In general we still struggled with overall entertainment, especially for children. It did get better once half term started especially during the day but at night it was games like Kahoot! or guess the age and the children were not involved. One night they had pablo bloom on and we really enjoyed this. It would be better if the hotel had more artists like before covid. I believe they had professional shows back then such as musicals, I hope these come back. In particular the upstairs bar at night was a little depressing and nothing to do if you wanted to escape from Kahoot!. During our stay we had an ongoing issue with our door lock, I want to say how efficient the repair team were, straight up there every time fixing it. We got a new lock in the end but I do praise their hard work. We were gold band this visit, we enjoyed the drinks. The food had good choices especially the gala night. Something we were disappointed in was the snack area- In the summer they had snacks by the outdoor pool in the bar. In winter they move them inside however they were nowhere near as good as during the summer and children were not allowed to go and get their own unless accompanied by an adult. Things like the burgers had to be made yourself whereas over the summer they are made by a chef at the bar. I think it’s unfair on the children that they can no longer go to the snack bar and just get some nuggets or a burger. It’s also a pain that we have to leave our sunbed to take a 10 year old to grab some chips. This aside we generally enjoyed the food on offer. Our rooms were nice and the tv had plenty of English channels which was a bonus as we had rainy days. It was nice to see management walking around the hotel and checking on everything- you can tell they take their role seriously and do want the best customer service. Overall a lovely stay and we will definitely return in the future.
