Labranda Golden Beach Only Adults

The best thing about the hotel is Daniel, the yoga instructor. He offers a range of activities and entertainment every day of the week apart from Monday & Tuesday. Entertainment such as water aerobics, yoga and even bachata lessons! He’s so fun and approachable. Offers competitions to win cool prizes and has an amazing six pack so easy on the eye ladies haha! I would say as a standard the hotel is nice, lacks food options because it’s pretty much the same for lunch and dinner. Expected tapas or other options. But on the hold never went hungry. Daniel you’re the reason I’d come back.

We stayed at this hotel recently for a couples trip. Good points: - nice staff: Dagmar on reception was helpful, restaurant and bar staff were efficient - hotel is very clean throughout - quiet at night so we slept well - good sized room (swim up) - pool was nice and warm and there were plenty sunbeds - Costa calma has some gorgeous beaches and walks, it’s a lovely area Bad points: - food was poor, not much choice (I expect this as a vegan at a buffet …. but this was the worst I’ve had). My husband said all meat was very overcooked, no variation day to day. The soup had no stock in it. It’s mostly German clientele so I think the food is more geared towards their requirements, however even then, it was the same food every meal. - the room lacked a few basics I’d expect - there was no full length mirror, only a face mirror in the bathroom - shower tray is flat so shower kept flooding the room

Stayed in the swim up rooms which was on ground level . Sunbeds table and chairs all provided. It was lovely to have our own pool to dip in and out. Service was faultless , nothing was too much trouble. Food was very good . Quite a steep climb back up from the beach So be aware. Hotel was very clean, beds comfortable and showers nice and hot 2 negatives 1 lift for whole hotel No English to and wi fi hit and miss and entertainment was very poor. This may be due to early in the year. Will definatley come again Thank you to the staff for making our stay enjoyable and stress free

The room was OK. We appreciated the safe and the fridge, and the walk-in shower (no bath, sadly). Being on the ground floor afforded us an AstroTurf patio with two private sunbeds and parasol, which were very handy. Other ground floor rooms had private plunge pools too! Unfortunately, whilst the room looked recently decorated, it also looked like it had been done cheaply and in a hurry: our wardrobe was chipped where a screw was poking out, and the doorframe to the bathroom had been glued on back to front. Our toilet also continually dripped. None of these were dealbreakers, just snags you'd get in a 3-star hotel as opposed to a 4. The food was good but not exceptional. Evening meals are themed (e.g. Italian, Mexican, Asia, Spanish) are there was a decent amount of choice. Perhaps a little too salty and grisly at time but overall not bad. The allergy labels are effectively pointless as most dishes are labelled as containing nuts when in reality they're only 'may contain'. Had my partner and I both heeded these warnings rigidly, we'd basically have lived off aubergines and watermelon the entire trip. We're fortunate that we can do taste tests and, thankfully, neither of us experienced any reactions at all. Breakfast was better, with a choice of continental meats, cheeses, cereals, yoghurts, pastries, donuts, churros, bacon, sausage, a made-to-order Spanish omelette station and more. The public spaces are spacious and clean. The pool is fine; missing the occasional tile but not dangerous and - for once - not overly chlorine-d. It's unlikely you'll need to get up at 6am to secure a sunbed BUT you might want to secure a parasol if you're not in a ground floor room as there's a severe lack of them around the pool area. I suspect many of them had been broken in the gusty winds that blew through almost every day whilst we were there (apparently Fuerteventura is known for being windy?). Evening entertainment ranged from the bizarre (an Avatar-themed gymnastics show complete with inflatable whale puppet the audience has to stroke) to the genuinely impressive (the dances of the world show and the 3-piece band being our favourites). Special shout out to 'Mr Sax' who put on an impressive hour long afternoon set around by the pool once a week, followed by a show in the evening. All good fun, and we appreciated that this wasn't the only pool-side entertainment; two afternoons there was a DJ mixing chilled house by the pool. However, the best entertainment (and significantly tastier drinks) can be found at the nearby Rapa Nui surf bar, a 10 minute walk away (it's 100% worth a stop). The staff were all lovely and very welcoming. A word on the location. Costa Calma is pretty quiet as far as resorts go. There's a few restaurants and bars, a couple of small shopping arcades selling touristy things, and several supermarkets. We found the one nearest the hotel (HyperDino) the best stocked and slightly cheaper than the nearby Spar. Beach-goers will appreciate th

We had amazing time here, spotless hotel, beautiful pool area. Staff on reception were lovely and so helpful and polite. Food was good always something nice to eat. Only fault was the entertainment was only on hour or 2, could have done with bit more music for the rest of the night. Perfect hotel for a quiet relaxing stay. The highlight of the holiday was Diana doing the pool dancing, she was absolutely brilliant and made everyone happy and get involved even from side of the pool.

Me and my friend booked a 5 night stay and it was horrible to say the least. I will say the rooms are nice and clean, very modern and the gentleman in the gift shop within the hotel was very lovely well mannered but that’s the only positive feedback I can give . As for the staff .. a small handful were nice and welcoming meanwhile the rest of the staff not so much very rude and dismissive (especially one worker who had red hair and facial piercings didn’t catch her name ) which unfortunately out weighed the good .The food there was horrible so don’t bother going all inclusive food is appalling I’m not a fussy eater at all but that was inedible. One night we saw bugs crawling on the bread !! from that point on we ate out . Me and my friend paid a lot of money for this short stay however how we were treated you’d think we snuck in and was not ment to be there! . We are both brown girls so the looks we were given from locals (which was expected)and staff made us feel very uncomfortable . I was quite disappointed with staff as you would think working in a hotel they would be used to seeing different ethnic groups of people . I was in the early stages of pregnancy so all I wanted was to enjoy my holiday & last bits of being able to relax with nothing to worry about. Few other negative interactions happened that left us quite emotional and distressed . I’m a very respectful and an opened minded individual but there is no excuse for some things we experienced . I’m very well travelled and have stayed at a lot of resort and by far this has been the worst holiday I have ever been on don’t bother booking this place waste of money .
