Hi Rob - there is another option (not used by many) there is a Bus service that drops/picks up directly in front of the hotel , about an hour transfer and slightly cheaper than a train (decent spanish might be needed to discuss with the Driver) The new reception and bar look great
Excellent helpful video, thank you. I visited the hotel for the first time in 1991. We're going on holiday there again soon. It's changed beyond recognition.
They have certainly put a lot of work in over the last decade or so. Every year there has been something that has been upgraded over the winter. Hope you enjoy your return to the hotel.
Thank you for another great video on the Hotel just thought i would say i was there when you where and said hello to you in the Restaurant me and my family had a wonderful time there the kids really Enjoyed the kids club put on by Tui and all the staff where Extremely welcoming and friendly
Hi Rob, thanks for this video! We can’t wait to be back!! You mentioned the snack bar was gone but you can still get food on all inclusive, can you still order food from here if you’re on half board the way you could previously?
Nice video again mate,50 days to we go,can I ask ,did you see if they had gluten free food on show,I know they do it just wondered if it was out on show
Glad the video helped and I’m sure you’ll have a great time. You can use your own water bottle - the filter machine shown in the video is off in the corner of reception and you serve yourself. Most bottles will fit.
Hi. This is a great idea. We are heading back to the Golden Taurus at the end of the month, so we’ll try and do a video like this then. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@robonholidayblog hey, dont take this personally, i did feel a bit hesitant while writing this but i feel you should try using chilled out / soft sounding music for your next video because its kind of startling and loud when it starts if you get what i mean, I do like your videos, the editing is perfect and the way you layer everything is nice.
@@MaragiMusic Thanks. Yes, it's always a difficult choice with the music. We're just using free stuff and there isn't too much chilled out. But we'll have a look at the options and see if we can find something more tranquil.
Hello. Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video. Pineda is a small town but has all the usual type of shop that people need - pharmacy, supermarkets etc. The centre is approximately 15-20 min walk from the hotel. Hope this helps.
Rob, wat zit er allemaal bij als snack of snoep, zag pringels voorbij komen in u video. of kan ik dat op een website terug zien wat er allemaal te eten is?
Hi. For snacks on all inclusive, you can get a few different ice creams and some meals like burgers from the snack bar. However, most items are not included, such as crisps (we bought those Pringles).
Hi do you know if I can rent a mobility scooter and also charge it up at the hotel ? And also is there an on-site shop in the hotel to get soft drinks etc ?. Thanks for a great video.
@@robonholidayblogThanks. I'm looking at going at the end of September early October. I know you said there's a supermarket just outside the hotel but does the hotel have an on-site shop for soft drinks etc to buy take to the room ? Thanks for your help sir.
A small selection of pre-mixed cocktails are available on standard all inclusive (tequila sunrise, piña colada etc.). Other cocktails come at an additional cost. Hope this helps.
No you have to rent it out if you want to use it. But you can only do this early in the morning or later in the afternoon as the animation team use it for football, tennis etc during the day. Of course you can join in with the animation team sports activities for free.
Thank you for your question. The simple answer is that I don’t speak French (or Spanish). I am English, all opinions are my own and I do NOT work for the hotel.
Ha ha. If only! I’m great at ordering food and drink, but not much else. My eldest daughter (who puts all these videos together) is fluent in Spanish, though. I can definitely trill my R’s so there’s hope for me yet.
Die Zimmer sind leider schmutzig, Bettwäsche ist eine Katastrophe, sehr unangenehm auf der zu schlafen, auch nach Wechsel schmutzig. Mein Zimmer wurde im Bettbereich permanent nach Schweiss gestunken. Die Deko-Bettkissen und Wohndecke waren auch nicht frisch. Reinigungskraft ist generell unfreundlich. Ich empfehle diese Hotel NICHT! Sauberkeit in diesem Hotel ist leider nicht der Hauptpunkt, sehr schade.
I respectfully disagree. The cleaning at this hotel is one of the best I’ve seen anywhere. The place is spotless. I don’t agree with your comment about the staff being unfriendly either.
@@robonholidayblog Jeder hat seine Vorstellung über Sauberkeit, ich habe die Bewertung laut meiner Situation geschrieben, damit die Leute auch informiert sind und keine unangenehme Überraschungen wie ich bei der Buchung dieses Hotels bekommen.

Hi. Thanks for this info. I will pin this comment so people can see it too.
How can we access the Bus Station? Dou you know the way to there
I went there last year and I loved it im going again next year
Thanks for your Golden Taurus videos, the family and me just had a great 10 nights there, and are planning our holiday there.
Glad to hear you had a great time. We love visiting the Golden Taurus and making videos there.

Thanks, James. Glad you and the family had a great time. It really is a fantastic hotel for families. Hope to see you again sometime in the future.
Well done Rob! Especially the tennis part😊
Thank you, Roland. It was great to see you and your family again.😀
@@robonholidayblog Likewise Rob! See you again next year👍
Hi Rob, great review , we come out this September super excited 😊
Thanks, Michele. Enjoy your visit.
Great video once again, been here so many time, but love to watch it from your pov! Brilliant videography and editing!
Thanks Amy, glad you enjoyed it.
Very informative video! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you. Hope you enjoy your stay.
I'll be there in two days, I've watched your video so there will be no surprise :D
Have a great time!
Excellent as always. Rob we think we have a job for you! We'll get in touch soon ;)
By the way, it's GOLDY, don't call him Goldie that he gets angry 🤣🤣
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it😀
Hi Rob, thanks for this video! We can’t wait to be back!! You mentioned the snack bar was gone but you can still get food on all inclusive, can you still order food from here if you’re on half board the way you could previously?
Hi Rebecca. Yes, there’s a whole range of food that you can order and pay for in the new bar area.
Great review and roll on the 18th May as were coming for our 1st visit
Thank you. I'm sure you'll have a great time!
Nice video again mate,50 days to we go,can I ask ,did you see if they had gluten free food on show,I know they do it just wondered if it was out on show
Coming for first time in June. Your videos have been most helpful. Must you buy the water bottle from the hotel or can you use your own bottle?
Glad the video helped and I’m sure you’ll have a great time. You can use your own water bottle - the filter machine shown in the video is off in the corner of reception and you serve yourself. Most bottles will fit.
Hi rob, please could you do a walkthrough the hotel with no cuts so we can get an idea of the layout and how everything links together?
Hi. This is a great idea. We are heading back to the Golden Taurus at the end of the month, so we’ll try and do a video like this then. Thanks for the suggestion.

@@robonholidayblog try using external websites aswell not just RUclips libary because then you may find other songs that are not in youtube libary
@@robonholidayblog im going to this hotel in august, and honestly it looks realy good!
Robby love you ❤❤❤
Hallo. Wat een leuke video! Zijn er veel winkels in het centrum van Pineda de Mar? Groetjes

Hi There are sun loungers on the beach?
No there are no sunloungers on the beach unfortunately.
I’m here rn lol
Hope you're having a great holiday.
@@robonholidayblog I am!
Hi do you know if I can rent a mobility scooter and also charge it up at the hotel ? And also is there an on-site shop in the hotel to get soft drinks etc ?. Thanks for a great video.
I believe you can contact the hotel in advance to arrange to have a mobility scooter ready and fully charged when you arrive.
@@robonholidayblogGreat thanks for your reply. It looks like a nice hotel. 👍
@@blb2022 it really is. We’ve been coming here for over 15 years. Great staff, great facilities and stellar entertainment.
@@robonholidayblogThanks. I'm looking at going at the end of September early October. I know you said there's a supermarket just outside the hotel but does the hotel have an on-site shop for soft drinks etc to buy take to the room ? Thanks for your help sir.
@@blb2022 No there is no shop for soft drinks on site. But the shop is literally opposite the hotel
silly question are cocktails included in the standard all inclusive or do you have to pay extra like the other drinks? thank you x
A small selection of pre-mixed cocktails are available on standard all inclusive (tequila sunrise, piña colada etc.). Other cocktails come at an additional cost. Hope this helps.
Cheers for the video rob, can you use their sports courts for free as ive seen on their website it has a euro sign next to it
No you have to rent it out if you want to use it. But you can only do this early in the morning or later in the afternoon as the animation team use it for football, tennis etc during the day. Of course you can join in with the animation team sports activities for free.
@@robonholidayblog thanks for the fast response. Do you know the range of prices to rent the courts by chance?
@@ethanmccaleb3492 I can't remember to be honest, but we did do it once and I think it was around €10 for an hour.
Hello, was wondering if there are any smoking areas? And where they are located?
outside of reception :)
Thankyou :)
10 days until we go 😂🎉
Have a great time!
@@robonholidayblog sure we will.
Bonjour il manque un peu de français dans vos vidéos merci de remédier au plaisir bien à vous
Thank you for your question. The simple answer is that I don’t speak French (or Spanish). I am English, all opinions are my own and I do NOT work for the hotel.
By now your Spanish must be muy bueno, perhaps with a British accent.;). I can’t trill my r’s so that leaves me out.
Ha ha. If only! I’m great at ordering food and drink, but not much else. My eldest daughter (who puts all these videos together) is fluent in Spanish, though. I can definitely trill my R’s so there’s hope for me yet.
Great video thank you , amazing hotel, we’ve been for the past 2 years and going back again soon . Can’t wait to see the new changes ❤
