Great hotel, great staff, clean, as I had 2 single beds put together it was annoying that they slid apart almost instantly so I woke up several times each night a I was either sliding down between the beds or just became aware that I was partially off the bed. Breakfast was good. I’d recommend that there was a bar area inside as well as the one out by the pools. I was there during unseasonal bad weather and there wasn’t a good area to sit around inside having a drink but I do realize that in Gran Canaria you don’t normally have to cater to people wanting to gather indoors very often. I’d still happily recommend this hotel

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.

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.

Best hotel in Maspolomas

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!

Excellent, relaxing stay

I had a really relaxing stay over four nights in Dec 2022. The reception staff were excellent both at check in and check out. Cleaning was thorough each day. The pool areas are lovely and the location excellent for the beach.

The only small negative is being charged an extra 4 Euros per day for a room safe, which I've not experienced before. When you're paying 150 Euros per night for a \"Gold\" hotel it does feel like a budget hotel additional charge.

My flight was 5hrs after checkout, they made arrangement to keep my luggage whilst I went to beach , and gave me a room to shower and change before heading off for my flight.

The Highlight of my Trip

Incredible Boutique Hotel!
Terrace Double Room.

I had the great fortune to discover this amazing property on my recent trip to Gran Canaria, Spain. The Gold by Marina is an Adults Only hotel that is in the perfect location to all the happenings in Playa Del Ingleis, the hotbed for excitement in the southern end of the Island.

it's Proximity to all the shopping centers and to the famous Maspalomas naturist beach and sand dunes were the initial reasons I chose to stay here, however, after I arrived, I realized, that the highlight of my trip was not going to be the beach but the Hotel itself.

Great staff, impeccably friendly customer service all with a killer breakfast! The hotel capitalizes on its incredible pool by hosting daily themed events there, such as BBQ's, DJ's and Happy Hours.

My room was excellent and cleaned daily. The spacious waterfall shower was one of the two major highlights of the room, the other being the outdoor Terrace. Now, as is the case with most hotels in Spain, each room came with a balcony but the ground floor terrace, to me, was another spacious element that elevated this property in my mind

The hotel on the whole is the perfect size. Not too large as to be overwhelming or generic and not to small as to be lacking in amenities. I truly enjoyed my time with the Gold by Marina family and I look forward to booking my excursion to GC (Gran Canaria) and PDI (Playa Del Ingleis) with them again!

Hotel is very good, nice layout. Staff are amazing, very warm and welcoming and eager to help. The problem is the cleanliness. I have stayed here several times and this was the worst so far. Hairs on the sheets, on the shelf in the shower and on the shower floor. Clearly it wasn’t cleaned properly from the previous occupant. The day beds were covered in bird faeces most mornings, and when they weren’t; it was bits of food that were scattered over the beds from the day before. I’m not sure why these aren’t cleaned in the morning before people use them?

The breakfast was brilliant anything you could want they had including a chef to cook any extra items. The food they serve by the pool side was really great too.

Good location

Very good facilities around the pool. Upon arrival to the restaurant it was busy, so we were put outside along the poolside area, it was covered over, but was cold and raining, heaters did there best. First impression was this is routine at peak times, yet surely laying the poolside tables with cutlery etc to be more inviting would help, it felt more like camping. The food was of a very high standard, everything you would want, disappointingly I couldn’t find warmed plates for the cooked food so it soon chillled, especially as we were put outside in the cold. Plate warmers would dramatically help!

The room was ok, the bed and bedding where clean in good condition, although I think could have been more luxurious, although the chocolate let each day was a nice touch.

The room was very clean, with a comfortable double bed (the website stated 2 single beds). The bathroom had a huge shower cubicle, with a tiny toilet area. The wash basin area was partly open to the bedroom. . We did not prepay for breakfast, but were given a free breakfast on the first morning. The comfortably warm pool was open from 9 am to 5 pm.

Winter sunshine break

Hotel was very nice, staff very friendly and plenty of choice for breakfast which was open until midday so great if had a late night out. Lots of seating around the two pools but guests were allowed to dump beach towels on best seats and disappear for hours which is always really annoying. I suggest the hotel stop this going on as some days it was sunny but quite windy and you were forced to sit on more exposed seats despite others being empty! The hotel staff were very helpful and on our last day gave us a free extended check out as my wife was a bit poorly. The hotel is about 10 minutes walk to the beach and about 5 minutes walk to the Yubba Centre which has lots of bars and restaurants. As a heterosexual sexual couple we did not mind the Yubba Centre as everyone was very nice and the bars and food were fine. However it was basically 90% gay men and most of the entertainment were drag acts so at times we felt we did not totally fit in. So overall a nice hotel and holiday but don’t expect to return.

Smart chilled hotel with amazing staff

The Gold by Marina brings a dash of Miami style to Gran Canaria. It’s situated within Playa Del Ingles close to shopping centres and a 15 minute walk to the beach.
The hotel has a really chilled vibe about it and the design is beautiful. Rooms are large and the entire hotel is very well maintained. It has two pools and lots of loungers to relax on. It even has a sundeck with an outdoor jacuzzi. Even though the hotel was full when I went I was always able to find somewhere to relax, either by the pool or on the sundeck.
Most importantly all the staff are really pleasant and helpful which makes a huge difference. I didn’t like the room I had first as it was at street level facing the road and a bit dark. The very next day I was moved to a room on the fifth floor facing the sea which was light and bright.
The external walkways around the building are a little scary if you don’t like heights but it’s worth braving it to get a better room.
Possibly the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed in, I highly recommend it.

Beautiful Boutique Hotel

What can I say.... what an absolutely beautiful hotel, from the glass of bubbly on arrival to the gorgeous colour schemes around the hotel, to the amazing breakfast spread.

This hotel is in a great spot, just a 5 min walk from the beach and a 10 min walk from the incredible sand dunes.

My husband and I both booked in for a massage at the hotel in the relaxation hut next to the pool on the second day there opting for a sports massage. This massage was done by Attie who was amazing... extremely thorough and very considerate to the pressure she was using. On our third day we opted for a full body relaxation couples massage and both Faina and Solya were also very thorough and we left feeling extremely relaxed.... lovely!

I would have no hesitation recommending this hotel and me and my husband would love to return.

Perfect

Great rooms, fab staff, breakfast amazing. Pools and cabanas spotless and lots of towels. Couldn't have wanted more. Big plus is that it's not too near Yumbo centre - 10 min walk.

Fab boutique style hotel

Our first holiday without children for twenty years. Lovely hotel in a quiet location but within very easy reach of beach and restaurants. We even walked to Melonares a couple of times for our evening meal. A great boutique hotel.

Miami South Beach just got closer...

Was looking forward to checking out this hotel after checking their website, interested to see how they would deliver on their very strong style / vintage concept. Fortunately they have got it completely right and it was better than I could have hoped. Additionally they have stuck to the concept without loosing any of the warmth, the staff are all friendly, relaxed and customer focused. Loved their non uniforms and the relaxed vibe, very Miami south beach without the 8 hour flight, what's not to like. Breakfast great and the food in the pool restaurant was freshly made and a better option for dinner than most restaurants in the immediate area. Ouiet street although in the centre of everything and a few minutes walk from beach. Unfortunately now I cannot stay anywhere else when on the island.

Excellent Hotel

Great hotel in every aspect.
Rooms, common areas, staff, decoration..
The staff is always smiling and really helpful.

Every day there is a small event that I recommend to attend.
We stayed one night at the hotel for dinner and loved it (it was paella night).
Great quality and not expensive.

Good hotel

Overall a good hotel with great rooms and breakfast until 12. The only downside was check in and check out as there were 7 of us and they lost hotel vouchers and had to keep on asking for them even at check out.

Perfect customer service and a great location.

if you need a hotel that goes that bit extra then this is the place to stay, I would recommend the breakfast buffet as a great value addition if not included, sets you up for the day!

Perfect stay for Christmas break

Had a great stay at Gold - all the staff were so helpful and full of recommendations. Great variety for breakfast with one of the happiest egg/pancake chefs I've ever seen! Rooms are exactly like pictures - only random thing is hair drier cord is secured to wall under sink so pretty much have to sit on floor to use. Onsite parking was easy.

Lovely Staff, super comfy beds & excellent brekkie

Stayed for 6 nights last week. Nice modern hotel, staff are great (gave my partner and I bubbles at brekkie for his birthday, nice touch thanks). And the breakfast itself has everything I could want oh apart from decent cereal but this didn't matter plenty of other great things to eat. Great location for yumbo lots of bars/restaurants within 5/10min walk.

Modern & quirky

A very enjoyable stay at this fantastic hotel. Modern, quirky and exceptionally clean. The staff here are also very friendly and attentive. The location is just a short away from the beach. Its also close to lots of lively nightlife yet the rooms are quiet so you get a good nights sleep:)
