Royal Dragon Hotel

I loved this hotel. It was so beautiful and the decor was amazing. Side note: (We went Aug 2023 not Sept. Wrote review late and Aug 2023 was not showing for me to select). The pool was great. It was like a curvy lagoon shape all throughout. There are plenty of sunbeds and plenty on the beach when you get to the top. A waterpark and fairground on site. Our kids loved this. Ages 4, 13, and 18. We did not use kids' clubs, our choice. We never do going abroad. There was also music, pool arobics which I really enjoyed, one day there was a huge party with a dj and a white party which was on a Wednesday. This I read in someone's elses review, which I'm glad I did otherwise I would not have known. The white part was amazing. They went all out. The setup was pretty cool. The lunchtime buffet had a good variety, and the evening food was so well presented and lots to choose from. Mcdonlads was a walk down the road, lots of shops and little bars, etc. We booked a pirate adventure cruise when we were out in the evening. Little stands with booklets to choose what you want to do. On the cruise, we had food included. You do have to pay for drinks and ice cream. They came around with a beautiful, kind parrot and took pics of us all. We bought them all and on printed plates too. Music throughout and a foam party, too. I think they were very entertaining. We did stop off at a sandy area where you can jetski, £20 pp for half hr. You could ride a camel, too. The hotel was offering jetski experience at £90 pp for half hr. We definitely got our moneys worth doing this trip. You go past the side ruins, than you park up, and you can jump off in the sea and swim. If you want to see a little video of the hotel see my tiktok page: sj_mummamoo

Absolutely amazing hotel, from the moment I arrived nothing was to much trouble. The staff are attentive but not intrusive and always will to help Don't be put off by the negative comments about the staff only speaking German, this not the case everyone spoke English.

My family and I went to this hotel for a holiday in August, the first abroad we’d had in 8 years. We arrived and had four very nice days. To start on a positive the hotel is vast and well maintained and the entertainment is brilliant (that which we got to see) It is a lovely hotel on the face of it. Then all the illness started. Gastroenteritis both bacterial (severe diarrhoea and cramping) or viral (vomitting) in three of the four of us. Two of us ended up in hospital for a whole day. We ate nowhere other than the hotel buffet restaurant, pool bar or beach bar. We swam only in the pool at the hotel. We did not pick up any of these sicknesses from anywhere else. I believe the beach bar was the food that gave me bad bacteria and the pool that gave the kids sickness. There was another person with chronic diarrhoea also taken to the hospital from this hotel in the same transport at the time we were taken so we were not alone in suffering at the hands of this hotel. A 10 day holiday and 6 of our 10 days ruined - it was a complete disaster. Neither TUI nor the hotel are taking any responsibility in terms of compensation What should have been a wonderful family holiday was ruined. Devastated is an understatement I will never holiday with TUI again or return to this hotel nor would I recommend this hotel to anyone.

The hotel was beautiful.The rooms were lovely. The bathroom catered for a wheelchair disabled person. The bedroom itself did not. We found the bed too high for a disabled person to get on and off, hence slipping off the bed. The hotel manager was brilliant and came up with idea of taking the six legs off the bed. Which made a big difference The rooms were spotless.The beds were very comfortable. The hotel staff were friendly enough but we found they catered more for the Germans.They have a lot of German tourists.Most of the hotel staff spoke mainly German Christmas Eve and New Year Eve were brilliant.The staff put on a Gala night. Christmas Day was a bit of a letdown as not much going on there until late in the evening. Overall though it was a good holiday
