Thanks!
Another good vlog, David. I like your honesty about these hotels. I think,out of all of them, The Cleopatra would be my sort of hotel. Keep up the good work.
Thanks David 😊
Just seen the tip come through on buy me a coffee, thank so much mate! Appreciate that 😊
Just seen this, thank you for the info.
As usual I love your videos. Missing corralejo but we off to puerto pollensa soon.
Thanks Anne, hope you’re well 😊
You have just saved me a lot of money on a birthday holiday booking so thanks 😂
You’re welcome, for the money this place costs you can find a much nicer place I’m sure 👌
Thanks!
Ahh thanks Mark, really appreciate this tip 😊 Thanks 🙏
Hi David - we've stayed in Playa Paraiso a couple of times and the restaurants in the area are pretty mediocre so you were probably as well going all inclusive. Really interesting your comments on the petty restrictions on the all inclusive which can really tarnish your experience of the hotel.
I don’t mind a small surcharge on premium brands but when you’re surcharging appletiser it’s a joke 😂
Hi, we're only back from a 2 week stay at the Hard Rock and had the best time. We upgraded to all inclusive on our last 4 days and it was €100 per day.
Wow, maybe they just didn’t like us 😂 we paid €140 per day!!
Stayed there for my wifes 50th Birthday , we booked a Rock Royalty suite , beautiful spacious room , great views but as you have said it's the little things that break the holiday highs, The roof top bar is a total scam , having to force your guests to buy drinks whilst up there is embarrassing as a hospitality company. A cabanna at the pool was £55 for the day , having a limited amounts of drinks done my head in , the food for me was medioca , we were booked in for a week but left after 2 nights , massive TV in the room but could not plug in my USB and my laptop !! , anyway I gave it 1 star on trip adviser only because I could not give anything lower . only once they start to suffer finacially from people not returning and their negative reviews will the management change the concept for the better . the hotel could be really great but its the little extras they try and scam you with that gets me . 0 Stars from me . I hope this puts people off from booking there as its a total waste of your money and you will be dissappointed with the service . Your money is hard earned and they just want to take more of it when you have already paid All Inclusive !!
Yeah! I forgot to mention the Bali beds being extra and mediocre food. Agree with all the points you’ve just made! 👍🏻
You are 100% correct in what your saying. We stopped last september on the rock royalty level whilst were away we always treat ourselves to anything we want, we ended up with a 500euro bill before leaving because of this..
Its not allinclusive at all even on that level. Lovely hotel nice staff but the service and the extras your paying for on top of your original holiday price is just not right.
Food looked really poor, some cheap frozen mozzie sticks and chicken strips from Farmfoods or somewhere similar - I will give that pretend 5 star hotel a miss
It may sound “good on paper” but it’s a definite NO from me!!! Complete rip off 😮 When we go away we just need simple, comfortable and clean…………. Airs and graces are a rip off in these places unfortunately! Thanks for your insight David ❤ Overrated though if you ask me….and not great for location if you are there for a week or more 😢
Definitely agree
Good video
Thanks
@@DavidEvansVlogs I can't believe how petty they were on them soft drinks. Very petty and mean.
Nachos Wollop 😂😂
We went to this hotel and we found if you’re not spending money you will get ignored by staff, food just ok, won’t go back
agree with you
A.i is all in , should get 2 euro back for fosters . That would drive me mad. After our 3 months in canary Islands last winter , we was schengered out. So got 10 days 8n 4 star in olu deniz, sundia hotel. Fantastic all inclusive. Only a few premium brands had surcharges. Give few small tips upon arrival, and my vat 69 was at my table before me. Staff , incredible. Kept asking if I need another one. Worked out at £66 a day , flights and transfers. Glad you got last day indulgence.
It was weird as they were so petty about little things yet let us go for it on the final day until we left. Strange place, was fine but wouldn’t go back again
Can confidently say that although the resort is nice its not worth the money stayed in August 2023 for 10 Nights and we had problems with their "5*" service constantly and in the end a manager got involved and fixed everything but that was about half way through our stay definitely could have done somewhere better cheaper.
Glad so many in the comments agree, I didn’t know how this video would go down. It really wasn’t worth the money at all 👍🏻
€560 for AI for 2 people for 2 days then they want more money. Don’t think we’ll bother 😮😂
Definitely don’t
I had the best time and did not experience this at all. Sorry for your experience
really enjoy a good whinge dave, you say it as it is well done, see you at Main Street in october
Hahah thanks Tom! See you then 😂
Your points on the pettyness of All Inclusive not covering everything. We had this a few years ago at the Barcelo Corralejo Bay, went All Inclusive, but you felt second class. Even told All Inclusive at certain bars were serving after 10pm. This put us off and now we do bed and breakfast or self catering.
Corralejo is much better for self catering as there is something for everyone, bars and restaurants here are brilliant
Did Caleta de Fuste in May, self catering very easy.
Went there all inclusive for two weeks in 2021, they were very weird about the all inclusive, like they didn't want people to actually use it.
There were so many rules about what was included and what wasn't and at what times you could use certain restaurants.
They wouldn't even let the kids use their all inclusive bands on their own because they said they were worried they might get drinks for their friends.
It was very frustrating to spend all that money and be treated like we were there to try to get one over on them
I wouldn't go back.
Exactly how I felt, thanks for sharing 👍🏻

It's weird as it a Palladium Hotel just with Hard Rock Hotel branding.
To be honest you can eat fairly cheaply in tenerife and can find 1 or 2 euro pints, better going half board
How are the all inclusive drinks that they do offer? also are there snack available at all times like ice cream for kids and stuff? The nickel and diming you mentioned is annoying as it's not a cheap hotel. Very impressed with the rooms and views though.
The ones they did offer were good! We just stuck with the frozen daiquiris in many different flavours which was good. Can’t remember so much off hand about ice creams and snacks sorry!
Thank for the info.
Now. I know that I will not book this awful hotel
Totally agree, all inclusive should mean everything but not just tenerife our last 2 hotels in fuerteventura had the same had to pay for certain drinks there all just making up for the lock down❤💯👍
Seems to be a theme these days
Try going to HR in Punta Cana what an horrible hotel like a shopping mall massive and unless you was a rock star (rock star level) don't expect all inclusive. I have never been to a bar where you go in get a table then you can't reach the bar because it's full of other holiday makers who just want to grab a drink then walk out and continue walking around. Sometimes there must have been a line of 30 people most ordering cocktails.
I’ll steer clear of all Hard Rock’s
Is there always sunbeds available?
Kebab meat for breakfast. Vegetables for breakfast. Fish for breakfast. I don't want to come across as a typically unadventurous Little Englander, but ugh, no thanks. Enjoying these hotel reviews. More honest than most, which are often mere advertisements for the establishment in question. Kudos to the hotel for honouring its promise, and kudos to you for your candour. All-inclusive with strings attached? Hmmm.
Thanks for the comment and for watching 😊
@@DavidEvansVlogs Would now like a compare and contrast video pitting Tenerife against Fuerteventura.
Why tf are hotels putting wash hand basins in bedrooms? How are you supposed to wash your bits in private 🫣.. iv had it before and walked straight back out. 😱😱
😂😂
Bonkers! Just don't stay there who needs a bath robe and slippers in that heat go back to fuerte! Thanks for the video! But expensive view! 👎
Definitely
Not my thing ,but it must be so hard to go back to corralejo 😂
It’s strange leaving a holiday and being excited to head home 😂😂
Rip off Tenerife.
140 euros per day each sounds like a massive rip off or am I just out of touch? Also thanks for mentioning all the little nickel-and-dime tactics they have. Can't believe you paid 140 euros each per night and it's still not enough to cover what is essentially (based on your video footage) pretty average food and drink.
Yeah it definitely wasn’t worth it, we won’t be returning!
Well done David getting your moneys worth from the all inclusive, we'll make an honorary Scotsman out of you yet 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
all inclusive and then trying to eek out a few euros here and there is a bit of a joke, rather they charge extra for all inclusive than this. Hard Rock is like a Ryanair flight nearly.. oh you want a seat that's extra sir.
Exactly my thoughts!!
