This is very well run hotel and very clean and is ideal for the older clientelle.
Nati in the restaurant is very kissy, kissy with the guests and the older ones love it. Most of the staff walk around with a big beam on their face.
We had room 501 on the 2nd floor and being an end room was absolutely massive.
The restaurant is not too bad but the buffet area seems too small for the amount of guests and the food is basic English food with a lack of vegetables.
There is very little nearby and about 10 mins walk to Teguise centre.
A big plus for us was that it was no smoking in the hotel building.
The staff were very good and the entertainment hosts were very good.
We may visit again probably in about ten years time when we are pensioners.

Hotel Coronas Playa
Located about 20 minutes walk from the resort centre, and thus not plagued by the noise of late-night revelries, the hotel is built in the modern low-rise ziggurat style offering sun on all balconies.
Twin rooms are big enough to sleep four people in ample space. They are furnished with superbly firm beds. Bed linen is changed every other day and towels are changed daily.
Room televisions offer only CNN as an English language channel when a BBC or Sky channel would better suit the almost entirely British clientele. Rooms have a fridge in which you may put your own drinks and there is a hair dryer in the bathroom.
The restaurant is all buffet and offers a very wide choice of food geared towards British tastes with a Spanish option for all meals plus a pasta choice at dinner.
In late September the average age of holidaymakers was over sixty but they were a very lively lot and many took full advantage of the activities organised by Thomson

The Coronas Playa is one of the cleanest hotels I have ever stayed in! The daily maid service was very efficient, towels were changed daily and bedding every couple of days.
The food was varied and there was enough to suit all tastes - and all of a very high standard.
If you are after a loud and lively holiday this is not the place for you. it is a quiet and relaxing hotel, and the entertainment focuses on the lower pool area during the day, so that if you want total peace and quiet their upper pool is almost silent!
The daily entertainment was good, and the evening shows were excellent, with a mix of in-house and speciality acts, concluding at around midnight in the pavilion. The Monkey Bar provides entertainment after this time for those who still want it.
The Thomson reps and hotel staff were excellent. All very friendly, courteous and very helpful. The reps in particular deserve a pat on the back for giving 110% effort to everything they do, and also being very knowledgeable about the area.
We wanted a holiday for couples only - and it was very quiet and relaxing, although catering to an older clientele of 50+ in our opinion -(and I mean that with no disrespect to anyone!)

Fantastic hotel just had 2 weeks of bliss didn't want to come home. Our maid Louisa was superb folded up clothes if you left them out room was spotless she also folded hotel towels into swans and boats very clever.
The food in the restaurant was very good we had been here before so we knew what to expect from Nati the maitre d she kisses everyone lovely lady she remembered us from 2 years ago bought a bottle of wine to our table as a thank you for returning.
The Thomson reps were very good.
Our only gripe was some of the male bar staff had a bit of a attitude a smile now and again wouldn't have hurt.
Evening entertainment good would definitely come back here again.

The hotel definately didn't have a 'wow factor' on arrival. It's a very basic, though sprawling complex, and strangely most rooms do not face the sea, but are based around two swimming pools!
We've stayed at many hotels with Thomsons over the last 10 years, and wouldn't rate the facilities or accomodation 4 star.
That said, the accomodation though very clean, is also very spartan. We were on holiday with friends and on our arrival we asked to be transferred to other rooms as the 'Garden Suite' rooms we were allocated had an 'Ant Problem'(And offered little or no privacy at all).
The Thomson team leader was particularly unhelpful and patronising at first and kept on repeating that this hotel was a Gold hotel and had a very good rating,but after informing the reception of the ant problem, the hotel staff responded immediately, spraying the rooms.
We were eventually offered new accomodation (although we were told that the hotel was fully booked). One to thing to keep in mind is that if you want to book a late check out room, you should talk to the reps at the beginning of the holiday, not at the end to avoid disappointment!
On the plus side, the hotel staff we're very friendly and helpful and the food was very good, both breakfast and the evening meal. A good choice of fruit and vegatables was on offer and the bread was always fresh, morning and evening.
We wouldn't go back again, but the couple we went with would. Which goes to show you can't please everyone!

We have just returned from a weeks holiday to the Coronas Playa. This was our first visit to a Thomson Gold hotel and I can honestly say it won't be our last. If this hotel is an indication of the level of service that can be expected from Thomson Gold hotels, it don't think we will ever do anything else.
The service from the hotel staff, right from our arrival, was superb. Everyone went out of their way to ensure we had a great holiday. All staff were very pleasant, friendly and helpful.
We had a Garden Suite with Sea View and what a view that was. Everything was spotless, and our cleaner left everything sparkling each day. The towels were changed daily and the bed was also changed a couple of times during our stay.
The Thomson, local interest Ref, Leigh was lovely and took us on a ramble to the three nearest beaches and the town centre. The whole team put in a lot of effort and for the first time on a holiday we stayed in for the entertainment every night.
We returned feeling very happy and refreshed so a very well done to all at the Coronas Playa.

Booked a sea view suite,but could not see the sea unless you stood on a chair because of concrete wall, quite a walk from the suite to the main building and up steps. Suite very clean if a little bland, daily maid service very good.
Two good size pools with plenty of space and no sunbed rush required.
Staff service a bit hit and miss especially in the monkey bar after main evening meal, but in general staff very good.
About a mile from the resort centre but good walk to burn off the calories.
Not an attractive hotel a bit like concrete bunkers but relaxing with no screaming kids. Very windy.

I feel compelled to complete this review partly as a thank you to all the staff at the Coronas Playa. My husband and I wanted a quiet holiday without having to be around a lot of families with young children, and the hotel certainly gave us that. Having stayed at hotels previously that catered more for families it was really refreshing to stay here. The staff and the entertainment team, reps, everything is geared to ensure that your holiday is as good, if not better, as you had hoped for. Thank you Coronas for a brilliant fortnight.

My husband and I just came back from a two week stay at the Coronas Playa yesterday and it is the first time we have felt compelled to post a review to one of these sites.
We had a wonderful time here and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for rest and relaxation. Definitly a plus with no kids allowed under 16!
All areas of the hotel where spotless including our bedroom (with thanks to the lovely Mary)- a pleasant change from other hotels where the rooms do not match the public areas!!.
The food was very good with lots of choices and we only ate out on 2 occasions out of the fortnight. The Staff were the friendliest and most helpful we have came across -particularly in the dining room, and were always smiling.
The hotel location was about 10 mins walk from the centre of town, but one of the ways into the main area was a lovely walk along the path by the sea and a most welcome way to let some of the food settle at night. It did get quite cold and windy at night which usually for us meant a taxi back which cost just under 3 euros.
There were enough bars, some with Sky sports, beside the hotel though if you did want to stay nearby. We did not catch a lot of the entertainment (due to watching the Golf Masters on telly!!) but what we did see was very good, especially the Four Tops tribute band.
The hotel had everything we needed, although it could be a bit quiet for those looking for livelier surroundings.
All in all for us, a perfect holiday.

My husband and I stayed at the Coronas Playa to celebrate my 40th birthday! We had a fantastic time and can't wait to return.
It is our first Thomson Gold holiday and certainly won't be our last. It was lovely having no children running around and the standards of the hotel and the service we received was 100%.
The rooms are huge and extremely clean. The towels were changed daily and the bedding every other day! You really could not fault the rooms!
The food was to die for ! We did say at the beginning of our holiday that we would eat out some of the evenings even though we had paid half board - but we really could not justify it! There was so much choice of food - everything for anyone's taste! The meat in particular was always of good quality and not what you would normally get abroad.
The staff were very very nice ! Always helpful and gave you service with a smile!!!! Even the reception staff were great!
The weather was not great when we were there. You definitely needed a jacket or cardigan - especially at night. We did not let the weather spoil our holiday though - the sun always came out - even if it was for just a couple of hours. Our last 5 days were fantastic though !!
On my birthday, the staff came out with a lovely birthday cake during our evening meal and sang happy birthday !!! We even had a few free drinks during the day which was a lovely touch !!
I have heard many reviews about the entertainment being poor! Quite a few reviews say its like going to Blackpool ! I have to say that myself and my husband really enjoyed the entertainment! The resident duo were very good and also a laugh. There was a different show every night - magic shows, jugglers, circus acts. If you are out for a good time then you will enjoy the entertainment!
We hope to go back to the Coronas Playa in September - funds permitting!
