| said: This is the 4th time we've been at this fantastic hotel (club) in the last 6 years. We were a bit disappointed that it's lost it's Superfamily status, but it did not detract from the holiday too much, although it was quite a bit noisier at night!
The hotel is right on the beach, it is clean, the staff are very friendly (reception, bar staff - especially Zoli, restaurant and the wonderful, hard working Fiesta Reps - especially Simon (with the sore head - hope it's better), Celia, Steffi, Vanessa and Paco and Rafa.
The 5's (real astro-turf) and the beach volley ball are great (as is the beach bar if you just want to watch with a cool drink!!), but there's also loads of competitions - darts, pool, rifle shooting, archery, french boulles and lots of other fun games.
The evening entertainment is also excellent and the reps. work really hard to put on a professional show.
Upgrading to all inclusive when you arrive is a must.
The food is excellent and there really is something to suit everyone - there's a carvery every night and there's always fresh pasta dishes
Great place for a family holiday!

| said: Just back from staying at Club again, 3 time in four years. Although I have to be honest and say it is not as good as when it was a Super Family hotel it is still very good in all other areas. We stayed in a ground floor room and it was excellent with 2 teenage boys lots of room and cleaned daily to usual high standards. The Hotel entertainers worked hard but a particular mention must go to Simon who was working really hard to get people involved. The overall activities are still great with 5 a sides still good and beach volleyball a great way to mix with fellow guests. The Food was excellent with plenty of choices both hot and cold dishes with some really nice feature dishes most nights, although for the fussy there is always fresh pasta or chips and burgers!!
Anyway really enjoyed it and met a load of nice guests which is a feature of hotel still the friendliest hotel I have stayed at from the staff to the guests with great banter between everyone.

17 euros if booked with thomsons well worth it.
the food was fab if you couldnt find anything you liked you must be fussey plenty of choice and the sweets you will find it hard to choose .
the rooms are very clean most have a great sea view.
the entertainment is great the kids will love to join in with all the dances that the fiesta team do each night.
the pool at the club is very busy but the hotel pool is alot less busy because you have to lie on the grass no sunbeds allowed
thebeach is right on your doorstep while we were there

The entertainment was not really my type of thing but the entertainment teamed worked very hard to put on a good show. They were great with the kids during the day and involved them in all activities.
We up graded to all inclusive which is a must with kids.
The food was good and plenty of choice but I just wanted to get some good home cooked food by the end of the 14 days.
Beach Fantasic. Pool fantastic. We will be going back next year.

| said: Not long home from having a fantastic holiday in Ibiza. We stayed in Hotel Don Toni for 1 week and i have already booked for next year only for 2 weeks this time. Everything about the holiday was fantastic. We were 10mins from the airport and although the planes fly over all day which can be noisy we actually enjoyed looking at them at such close range and the noise didnt seem to annoy anyone. The hotel is situated right at the beach which was spotless and very safe. We had booked half board but upgraded to all inclusive when we arrived. It worked out very cheap and meant you didnt have to carry money around with you not even to the beach as there was a beach bar which you could use.
The food in the restaurant was first class for all meals. You had the choice of numerous meat and fish dishes and there was always show cooking each evening. To compliment your meal there were plenty of fresh vegetables available and different sorts of potatoes each day. For dessert there was plenty to chose from so unless you are extremely hard to please you will not go hungry.
The fiesta team worked very hard day and night to provide entertainment around the clock and they were always very pleasant to everyone young or old.
The staff at the hotel were also very pleasant and most helpful. The rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels and toiletries given.
The centre of the town is about a 10minute walk, with the aqua park about 5 mins.
We took a boat trip to Es Cana to the hippy market(which might i add was quite expensive). The boat trip was lovely and we stopped off at Santa Eulia for a while.
Our daughter aged 13 really loved the holiday and she met girls of her own age. There was always plenty of things for them to do.
As i said i have already booked for 2 weeks next June and cant wait to go back. If you are looking for a good
holiday then look no further Hotel Don Toni has the lot.

Stayed in the club. Rooms a bit grotty. Didn't feel clean. Very dusty and cobwebs on the ground floor so got infested with ants quite a few times.
Club itself was in a great place just a short walk to water park and shops.
Fiesta team were excellent. Shows were brillant kids really enjoyed it.
Would def go back to Don Toni.

Hotel kept very clean,rooms etc. Food very good ,staff pleasant,nice rooms,safes a tad dear at 17euros per week. Left ours wide open one day (muppet), passports, money, moblie phone, gold chains, camera,left inside,room cleaned not a thing missing.
A bit of a walk to the bars etc,but just as cheap to drink in the hotel. Pool cold and I mean cold!. Entertainment fine Fiesta team work hard. We never saw Thomson reps! All entertainment is at Club Don Toni,2 min walk away.
Bar snacks at Club Don Toni a bit grim!!. Go to Ibiza town 1.80 on the bus (every half hour). Because we went in May was very quiet,but still plenty open,hotel very close to space night club,and Aguamar water park. San Antonio is about 22 euro in taxi. Bit dearer at night time.
All in all would not hesitate to stay here again.

People have said the food is repetitive but we thought it was excellent and if you didn't like what was on there was always chips burgers and a huge selection of salad to fall back on.
The entertainment staff were excellent especially Celia who always stopped for a chat with practically every guest.

| said: We stayed in the Club Don Toni for 1 week from May 12th.
The hotel itself was closed while we were there, only the Club part was open, so it was probably quieter than it normally would be.
The pool was clean and of a very good size. As mentioned before, you cannot take inflatables into the main pool, but there were some in the baby part, which was also a good size. There were plenty of sunbeds available, but again this may be due to it being early in the year.
We went all-inclusive (food and drink), which cost us around €385 for 2 adults and 2 kids for the week. This gave us lunch as well as a choice of Hot-Dogs, burgers and toasted sandwich from the pool snack bar. Water, beer, wine, other local alcohol, coffee and soft drinks also included. There is also a Drinks-Only option, but I don't know how much cheaper this was. It was very hot, so we made our money back straight away with the drinks alone so lunch was a bonus.
The food is excellent with a wide variety of choice both at lunch time and evening time. Breakfast consisted of traditional English, with eggs being done to order, which also included omelette's of your choice cooked to order. Watch out for the "Egg Lady" who can be a bit scary if in a bad mood. Continental stuff also, meats, cheeses, salads, French bread, rolls, toast, cereals, hot and cold drinks, fruit, yoghurt's, etc... All of the cooked food was always hot and plentiful.
Lunch and dinner were also always hot and cold dishes. Salads, pasta, spaghetti with a choice of toppings which were cooked to order. There was a hot plate where different meats and fish were cooked to order each day including burgers cooked to order every day.
Loads of choice as well as all that with vegetables, meat dishes and fish dishes, as well as pizza, potatoes, chips, lasagne, etc... Drinks from the bar in the restaurant.
This used to be a Thomson Superfamily, so there is a playground on-site plus a Thomson kids club which was great and also a Fiesta Mini Club which also had loads of activities.
Evening entertainment was also good with various shows most nights.
There was plenty of space around the pool and stage area with loads of seating. There was also loads of seating inside with another bar.
The grounds were also very nice with well-kept gardens.
There was direct access onto the beach from the hotel with a beach bar and plenty of seating.
The beach was very big and was very quiet, maybe again down to the date of travel.
Not enough areas to walk for us, as there is no promenade-like areas. Alot of the bars/restaurants were just starting to open as it was low-season, which was one of the reasons we decided to go all-inclusive.
Rooms were clean and big enough for the 4 of us, with twin beds and 2 large sofas in an L-shape made up as beds for the children. Rooms were cleaned daily.
The waterpark was excellent and well worth a visit. We got our tickets from the reps and were half the gate price.

| said: Having read the previous report on the Don Toni we had to wonder if we were in fact staying at the same hotel.
Truth is that the menu is as varied as you could hope for, sure there were chips and burger available every evening, but this is because many people take children and lets face it, for many kids burgers and chips come first!
This is the menu available at the evening sitting on our last noght, we made a point of writing it down because we are hoping to persuade our friends to come with us to Don Toni next year.
Spaghetti
Freshly cooked pasta sauce (cooked to your preference)
Chicken Tikka Masala (all breast meat)
Lamb Stew
Meatballs in Tomato Sauce
Fresh side of Salmon in lemon cream sauce
Roast Pork (carved while you watch)
Burgers
Sauteed Potatoes
Vegetable Rice
Pancake Rolls
Vegetable Pakora
Cauliflower
Mixed Veg
Chips
So all this talk of no choice baffles us, we found the menu choice to be well varied throughout our two week stay, true it can't be described as 5* but then again the Don Toni is rated as and priced as a 3* hotel.
Our only gripe?....That there was not a small fridge in the room, when we mentioned this to the Fiesta manager we chatted with he informed us that this was one of the improvements planned for 2007/8.
Would we go back to Don Toni?
100% we would.....

The entertainment was fab.
The food by the end of week 2 was not funny=y, the same thing every single night with no change, if you don’t do burger & chips pasta or salad you are stuck.
My son enjoyed the games put on by the staff and the club dances at night he had a blast.

| said: Just returned from Club Don Toni (4 x adult, 2 x 17yr olds & 2 x 14 yr olds) 21-28 July 06.
Hotel location great...few minutes walk to the bars, clubs & restaurants .... beach on the doorstep.
We were very disappointed with the allocated 3 rooms (for ref: 3104,3105,3106). On walking into the rooms we were met with a strong smell of 'damp'. There was mould around the bathroom tiles and the vanity unit top around the side of the sink was badly burnt in all 3 rooms (I suppose by people using them as ironing boards!) The ceiling in one of the bathrooms also had a very large patch of peeling paintwork hanging down. We put up with this for one night, assuming the smell would disappear but the final straw came when I woke in the night to find ants crawling on my pillow & in my bed!!. We had a word with the Thomson rep who liaised with the reception staff to allocate new rooms. We must say the hotel staff were very helpful & efficient and managed to relocate us in about half an hour.
The new rooms were cleaner but on the whole I think the hotel is in need of refurbishment and a lick of paint. The rooms are of good size but they are crammed with large furniture which is a bit dated and tired. There is a ceiling fan in the rooms and I must say the aircon is the best I've come across.
The rooms don't have a safe but you can hire a safety deposit box which is situated in a room next to reception.
The pool is fab but there is not much natural shade and, as with most hotels, not enough parasols unless you are willing to get up at 'stupid-o-clock' to reserve a bed. We could always find a sunbed though, and went out to buy our own parasols at a cost of about 9 euros each.
A walk through the gardens takes you to the beach bar and it is great the sit there and relax with a sangria and enjoy the fabulous views.
The restaurant and food is very good and caters for most people's taste. So much so, we upgraded to all-inclusive which is very good value for money (around 17 euros/adult & 13/euros child up to 17). You can also choose to upgrade to just a 'drinks option'.
The Thomson reps were friendly and the entertainment was good - always attracting a large audience. We were disappointed to hear that the hotel wasn't opening the disco this year, because having teenagers this was one of the main attractions of booking this hotel. However, I think to due public demand, the hotel had a change of mind and opened the disco half-way through the week.
In all, we had a great holiday holiday; helped by the fab weather; and given a refurbishment this hotel could creep up to a 4*

Club Doni is worth a visit, entertainment good, excellent food and accommodation good, though back entrances to apartments could do with refurbishing, very basic and plain and stairs were a pain as carrying suitcases up 3 storeys wasn't easy.
The air conditioning was brilliant, we had a fan as well as air con and it was a pleasure to return to the room.
Sports facilities are excellent, my daughter and her friend both 17 thoroughly enjoyed the football at the Fiestaland.
Dont hesitate to book and go to this accommodation.

Food the best I have had on the island after 20 visits,
I gave it 4 because its quite a walk to the main town.
Hotel very good for disabled, ramps in most places but not to TV lounge or disco if its ever open as it look as it had not been used for years.
Bathroom may cause problems for disabled as the bath had about 8" steps to go up then you step in the bath from there which did get very slippy, no hand rail to hold on to. Rooms have a safe for valubles and a TV, also air con.
Food loads to choose from, even veggie people would not have an problems there, carvey on most nights and alot of food cooked in front of you freshly done even caviar on the menu.
If you hire a car theres not a lot of parking space because hotels at end of cul-de-sac and the buses turn around right in front of the foyer, so the best bet is to drop people off first at hotel and park on main road. Would say its about 500mts away but for a quick way go through sports bar walking that is to cut journey down a bit.
There is a little train (not a real one that stops on main road to go to town and plenty of buses about.
Space Disco is 600 mtrs away from hotel but no problem with noise or hassle and the water park is behind space.

The hotel was a lot quieter this year compared to our other visits there (they say it was because of the world cup). The food was amazing once again and the staff were as helpful as ever.
We went down on to the beach every day, which is about 20mts away. The only down part to that was the price we had to pay for chairs, 5 euros a day each plus 5 euros for a parasol x 14.

Food was ok, but into the second week was getting a bit fed up with the same things.
Definately worth the upgrade to the all inclusive drinks option. 13e per day per adult and 10e. per day per child.
Worth taking the offer of half price tickets for the water park, which is practically across the road. Usual cost is 18e. per adult and 10e. per child. Check with your rep if your ticket has an expiry date if you purchase them!!!

Celia, mad Agustin and the rest of the Fiesta team, were first class and catered for the whole family from mini club for the youngsters, a full programme of activities for the teenagers (we didn't see our 14 year old son for two weeks thanks to Niko) right through to the adults sporting activities and competitions.
The evening entertainment programme was very good but there was limited table and seating due to its popularity.
Pool safety was a very strong point with a life guard on both pools all day.
The hotel was exceptionally clean and the staff very friendly, the two restaurants provided a very acceptable standard of meals.
This has been the highest rated holiday we have experienced for many years and we are seriously considering booking again for nest summer. A thoroughly recommended family holiday.

| said: I have just come back from the BEST holiday EVER!!! We stayed in the Hotel Don Toni, which with experience from staying in the Club Don Toni last year isnt as family orientated but is only a short walk away from the Club its self. The weather was fantastic!
The Hotel was very clean and the cleaners very friendly. They would put fresh clean sheets and towels in your rooms everyday.
We went half board and as the shops were only a short walk down the road we would fetch some dinner from there. However there is always the pool bar or beach bar were you can get chips,burgers,pizza,hotdogs etc.
The entertainment in the Club was excellent!! You could not fault it!! However the team is different from last year! But this team is just as good and make a real effort to get to know you and entertain you! It is clear that the staff enjoy what their doing and are excellent at it! The entertainment starts at 11-5 and their is something for everyone to do. Ruth is very talented as is good at what she does. Agustin is mad, Niky very good at entertaining your little ones, Patricia is just pretty Patrica, Juicy Lucy is doing excellent for her first year as an entertainer instead of being a kiddies rep, Xavi is fantastic however he did leave us after acouple of days to be replaced by Chris however he did only move next door to the Palm Beach, Celia is just plain bonkers no other way to describe her, the gorgeous Nico who entertains the hardest people on this earth to entertain as Ruth describes them...the teenagers and last but not least the gorgeous Axel who is just plain cheeky and does an excellent job with the stage backgrounds for the shows! They work brilliant as a team and this shows in their work!
The night entertainment is fantastic they start with a kiddies disco at 7.30 followed by the mini disco at 8. The entertainers then put on a little show before the main event. The main shows start at 10 and are brilliant! They consist of Mamma Mia, We Will Rock You, Dracula, Lion King and on mondays before the show the entertainment team work hard to put a teen show on performed by the teenagers themselfs, this is normally Grease and Saturday Night Fever. Then after the main shows is the club dances and then at 12 you can go across to the Hotel Don Toni where the disco takes place. This is done by a different rep each night and is for anyone over the age of 16. There was a lot of teens about the resort and they often formed a group together making new friends.
The food is ok but there is more to food than chips! The cakes are yummy you have to try them all at least once! However this year we have only one complaint and that was the plague of flies about the restaurant! They were everywhere! On the food which you were just about to eat, on you, everywhere! I know this is not the hotels fault but you would have thought they would have done something about this! We did not have this problem last year though.
The location of the hotel is on the beach and the shops are just a short walk away. You can catch the water taxi into Ibiza Town which only takes 15minutes. The planes do fly low but after awhile you get used to the noice of the aircraft. However the noice is more noticeable at the Club as the planes fly lower there than they do over the Hotel Don Toni, but this is not a problem at all.
You can visit any of the Fiesta hotels to watch the entertainment,eat or just do what you want to do there. Each hotel is diferent in its own way but also in a good way!
I would advice anyone with children to go here! We love it! We came last year aswell and hope to go back next year too!! Hopefully to some of the same reps! :)

There was constant activities from 12-5 every day and evening entertainment from 8-12 and the disco in the hotel until 2am (over 16s only)!
All the reps were friendly and they were all good at keeping us entertained, especially Agustin who was absolutely great and continued to entertain through the pain of a hurt heel!
They all made an effort to get to know you and they were all great- Xavi, Nico, Axel, Celia, Ruth, Patricia, Nicky, Lucy (The Thompson rep) and Agustin!
The food was lush, and there was always something to eat! My family upgraded to all inclusive drinks as there was absolutely no need to leave the hotel. All the shows were brilliant- Mamma Mia, We Will Rock You, Dracula and Lion King to name a few! I enjoyed WWRY so much that i went to another hotel to watch it again!!
I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a laugh!

Kids club and Fiesta own entertainment was very good. My son (10) joined in what he wanted to and had a great time.
We thought the all inclusive up grade was well worth it as we never had to carry money to the pool. The food was good but something other than chips as an option would be nice. The pool bar at the club complex was in need of serious refurbishment and could look so much better. Left a comment with hotel.
While we were there the pool was closed at least three times because people had done something foul in the pool and it had to be cleaned.
Apart from that a good holiday and very relaxing if you wanted it to be.

| said: We booked half board but upgraded to all inclusive day after we arrived. Had interconnecting rooms which were great, each room had two single beds and a large sofa bed. Plenty of wardrobe space. Rooms were cleaned every day and towels changed if your leave them in the bath. Cleaner was lovely and trustworthy and each night there was a security guard walking round checking everything was ok around the club.
Entertainment was great, kids loved it. They joined in when they wanted to with both the Thomson and Fiesta games. My son especially liked going off to do the football. If they win games during the day they go on stage in the evening to get their certificates.
Food was good, no upset stomachs. Some nights there was lamb or pork being carved up and served which was great. Puddings are far too nice, and you have to try them all.
Pool was only closed once while we were there, kids just went off and used the hotels pool instead. The lifeguard on duty came over to us and checked all the kids could swim, also no inflatables at all are allowed in the pool, although you can still play ball. If the kids need rings they have to go into the childrens pool.
The cleanliness of the pool area is really down to us holidaymakers, so many just don't bother putting empty cups in the bin, and lets face it, its not hard to do!
As the pool area is big there wasn't the early morning panic for the sunbeds. We put our towels out on the way to breakfast about 8.30 to 9.00 and there was always plenty left. Obviously not if you turn up at 2 though!
Only complaint with the staff was kids were often ignored for quite a while when they went to the bar to get their drinks. Think they see the wrist band and know theres no tips coming, but if the hotel run this facility they everyone should get served the same. Also, the pool bar shuts at 6, and sometimes you go at 5.45 and they're already shutting. Think they should have kept it open till 7 when the pool closes.
Lastly just to say the Thomson team were fantastic, had to spend a few hours having xrays and had to abandon 4 kids with Thomson for about five hours. They just took them to the kids club and they were all fine. Everyone had a great holiday, noticed the Club Don Toni isn't superfamily next year, wonder if this is due to quite a few large groups of Italian and Spanish teenagers who book there.
Nearly forgot, beach is great, sea is great for the kids. As you look out to sea there are buoys marking off where the watersports go so its all nice and safe.

The food was always hot lots of choice and freshly cooked.
The hotel staff and Thomson reps were very friendly and helpful.

You can tell the staff are happy and enjoy their jobs.
We would go back there again and would highly recommend it a great place.

Room was of a good size and cleaned each day. Your hair tends to frizz after washing in the salt water shower.
Nice location, just a stroll past the beach bar on to the sandy beach, went swimming in the sea, very clear water and warmer than the pool. Only a short walk to shops, bars etc.
Club & hotel pools well cleaned as were bars and reception. All staff very nice.
Good kids club and playground and only a short journey from the airport.
The planes do go over the hotel very low, but only makes a noise for a minute or so.
Would like to return to this hotel again.

The Reps were on hand 24/7 and this is the first time we haven't had to play hunt down the Rep.
Benny is hilarious,Kieran and Carl make the activities so much more fun and as for the children's Reps who could ask for more, they were fantastic.
My Husband,son and I travelled with my friend and her 2 small children she has already booked to return next year.
The food in the hotel is amazing who could ask for more, anyone who complains must be extremely fussy.
The location is good, far enough from town to feel exclusive and close enough to have a comfortable evening stroll with 3 pushchairs. We stayed in the Hotel and walked round for lunch, swimming pool and evening entertainment.
The pool is watched over by life guards and they were excellent. My son cut his toe and any one would think it was amputated how he carried on,David the swimming pool life guard was great he cleaned it up and reassured him.
The Fiesta staff are lovely and we had a great laugh with them, nothing ever seemed too much. Every day was something to look forward to.
My husband liked having lots to do and I liked my husband having lot's to do so I could relax.
Entertainment was GOOD especially Lion King and Moulin Rouge. Day time entertainment is brill how any one can say different must be miserable.
I would have this hotel as my regular holiday every year if I could afford it my son said it was better than Disney Florida last year.
Everyone on the holiday enjoyed it so much they didn't want to go home.
In fact one man (Mark) or (Skitz) as he was better known went home after 1 week and was back round the pool by lunch time the next day.
Go to this hotel you will not be disapointed it should have a 5 star Thomson rating in my view.

Large restaurant situated in adjacent hotel don Toni, food, well, a fairly wide choice is available, but the combinations leave a lot to be desired, make sure you get a hot plate, which are normally hidden by people queuing, you will not starve here but you will have to make up a few different meals. I.e. chips, carrots, sprouts, there is a lot of pork on so if you dont like it you may struggle.
All inclusive drinks option was 12.94 euros per day per adult, 7.89 euros per day for children
food and drink option was 17.07 euros and 9.92 euros respectively, we gambled and did not go for either, and it paid off, just as well as the entertainment we saw was diabolical, and the lager has a rather bitter tang to it,
Over all it was a good holiday, but glad we did not pay the full brochure price

It was very expensive for what it was- don't waste your money

The location is absolutely fabulous as it is on the beach, and the beach is gorgeous and so is the swimming pool!
There are so many different ages of people in this hotel so if you have kid’s great idea to take them to this hotel because they will have so much to do!!
The rooms are great as well, as there is air conditioning and everything you need in them.
I would also say it is a good idea to purchase the drinks bands as they are well worth it if you want a drink all the time and you don’t have to keep paying out.
Great holiday definitely go back again

However it was by far the best holiday I've ever been on...
The best bits - the reps (Kai, Kieren - so gorgeous! Chip, Christian, Benny and Noel were brilliant as well as everyone else) were so talented, and after a night on the booze, we agreed that (after sobering up)Chip should be on the West End or Broadway!
The weather was fantastic, everyone was fantastic.
The food was great and everything in close proximity was fab.
Another highlight - wandering out of the complex in the early hours of the morning (throughout the morning also) you could hear Space (nightclub)'s resident DJs playing chilling tunes in the background - was a brilliant experience.
But THE highlights of the week were definitely The Lion King and We Will Rock You performed by the Fiesta reps - when (on The Lion King, my fave film) they killed Mufasa (Kai) I was crying! It was excellent. Chip and Ruth have got to be the most talented people I have ever met in my life.
We've already booked for next year - same week and everything!
I'd recommend it to anybody, they should go as soon as they possibly can!

Just got back from a Thomson Superfamily holiday and want to go back again. After 2 "holidays from hell" we were due for a good one but ended up with a brilliant one instead. We stayed at the Fiesta Club Don Toni which is 10 mins from the airport (would recomend you take a taxi as the coach drops off at other hotels first). First impression of the reception and the room was very good. We had a twin room which sleeps 2-4 people and had 2 single beds and 2 sofa beds in an L-shape which the boys said were very comfy and there was also plenty of room. Lovely bathroom but get used to washing in salt water. Booked half-board but decided to upgrade to all-inclusive after speaking to some of the guests on arrival (it was well worth it - 378 Euros (£265) for the four of us). You have to upgrade from day one and everyone in your party must upgrade.
All entertainment was by the poolside and evening shows presented by the Thomson Team and Fiesta Team were excellent. Shows included The Lion King, Cats, Broadway Nights, We Will Rock You and Grease which was played by children staying at the hotel (no reps involved). Was a bit worried about the noise as our room overlooked the stage and the pool but all entertainment was stopped at midnight.
Food was wonderful even for my fussy seven year old who enjoyed his own selection of English food at their own buffet table. A lot of food is cooked in front of you eg. ommelettes, burgers etc. you can even pick your own fillings for the ommelettes and the chef will cook it while you wait. There are 2 floors to the restaurant so it was never too crowded.
Everwhere was spotless and even the childrens playground was regulary inspected. While we were there the gardener came out with his barrow to top-up the sand to go under the swings as it was getting thin.
Kids club is great and there is a storage area outside the Kids Club where they keep balls, buckets,spades and lilos for you to borrow for the beach and return each day.
You are not allowed any lilos or any type of inflatables in the pool as it is a new Spanish Law. Pool is big with a separate childrens area but is salt water. There is also a lifeguard on duty.
Lots going on most of the day so the kids don't get bored. Five mins walk to the shops and across the road from the hotel is the water park. As the hotel is situated on the beach you have the best of both worlds. On the beach you have a banana boat and jet-skis (45 Euros for 2 people)and my son found this great.
My only complaint was evening drinks by the stage/poolside was that they were served in glasses so be careful if any drinks get smashed as your family could be walking around during the day barefoot.
All in all a fantastic holiday, will definately go back again. Hopefully will see the same Thomson and Fiesta reps and entertainers again as they are the best. Many thanks to Chippel and Carl, they're mad as hatters.
Met up with the Amor family from Port Talbot who also had children the same ages as ours and spent a fabulous week with them. Many thanks to them for making it a holiday to remember.

| said: This was our first visit to the Club Don Toni and we had 2 very good weeks there. We went with Thomson under the Superfamily brand as this best suited my families needs. Our part consisted of my kids (11 months and 4 years) and my wife and myself (29 and 32)
Hotel:
We stayed in the Club Don Toni which is where all the activities and entertainment is. It has a large pool in the centre which is very pleasant once you get used to the salty water. Our room was one of the standard size rooms which consisted of 2 single beds pushed together(??) and an L-shaped sofa which could be used as beds. We also had a cot which did make the room a bit more cramped but acceptable. The ensuite bathroom was good but the water was again salty and took some getting used to when using the shower. We had to use bottled water for brushing teeth etc. The rooms were cleaned daily and fresh towels placed. I was dissapointed with the cleaning as we had fresh sheets only once in two weks and the room was never really cleaned properly, no glasses were cleared for 6 days( I ended up with 7 glasses on the table at one point.) Our 11month old would crawl around and end up with dirty feet.
Food/Drinks:
We opted for the all inclusive upgrade. I would say that it is worthwile as we drunk alot of water and softdrinks during the daytime. Neither of us are heavy drinkers though and mostly drunk the locally produced drinks that it allows you. The food was very good overall. Breakfast included fruit, pastries, cereals and fried food. Lunch in the restaurant had a wide variety including salads,burgers,omelettes,pasta,chips and meats. Dinner was very similar really but with a slightly wider choice and specials like paella. In fact you could have burger and chips for all 3 meals !!
Entertainment/activities:
This was what really made the holiday for us. There are activities from 11am until about 5pm that includes football, volleyball, water polo, rifle shooting, archery, darts and what they call "cocktail games" which could be anything from musical chairs to giant jenga. Daily winners all get rewarded with a diploma which is awarded on stage at 9pm each night.
These are run by the Thompson team and the Fiesta Animation team. The resident Thompson entertainer is Carl who is absolutely superb. He works with the Fiesta team and is often in their nightly shows. The kids clubs are great and all the Kidzone reps were very good with the kids.
The nightly shows start at around 8pm with and hour of kids mini disco (split between Thompson and Fiesta) and then a pre show around 9:15. The main shows start at 10pm and have a 14 day cycle. These are run by the Fiesta team and included Lion King, We Will Rock You, Moulin Rouge and many more(most were mimed but the sets, dancing and costumes were great). These were very good when you think of what the guys put into them. Keep an eye out for Noel, a very funny and camp Belgian chap who resembles Mr Bean. Chippo (from Birmingham!) and Ruth run the team and were very professional.
Summary:
We would happily consider returning there again, mainly because of the staff and activities/entertainment. Thats about it aprt from a few points below:
The main things to look out for are:
1. Sunbeds are all gone by 9am so 8:30-8:45 is best to reserve.
2. Tables around the stage area all go by about 8-8:30 when the kids mini disco starts. I saw people in groups staggering their eating times so that some members could eat at 6:30 and reserve 2-3 tables.
3. The all inclusive option allows only a few items (plain burger, hotdog or a "sandwich") from the pool bar and also starts at 10am so if you want water for an early departing excursion get it the night before.
4. The walkways all over the complex are VERY VERY slippery when they are wet. Be very carefaul when near the pool or early in the morning when they get hosed clean.
I hope this helps people, Oh and one more thing....the aiplanes are nosiy but after a few days you hardly notice them.

| said: When we actually arrived at the hotel, we were a little disappointed. I don't think it has updated since the 70's.
Our room wasn't much better, very basic no air-conditioning only a ceiling fan which in the height of the season doesn't help much.
The dinning room of the Don Toni didn't impress us much either. To get to the pool you need to go out of the main entrance and walk around the back!
It wasn't until we looked around the hotel and found the Club Don Toni that our holiday started to look up! We started using the main restaurant by the pool which is much better then the hotel restaurant, and the Club Don Toni's pool is wonderful compared to the hotel's pool (you are not allowed any sunbeds around it).
Once we had found the Club our holiday was fantastic, the only thing we used the hotel for was to sleep!
The entertainment was the best we had seen on any of the holidays we have been on, the entertainment team worked really hard, we stayed at the complex almost every night as there was always something worth seeing such as a performance of Starlight Express or The Lion King.
The only good thing to come out of staying at the Don Toni is it is about £60 per person cheaper than staying at the Club and you can use both facilities!

| said: Been to the Don Toni Hotel for three years running and it has always been a fantastic holiday. Food, rooms, staff and entertainment are all first class. The proximity to the beach is a major factor, no roads to cross so very safe.
However, other tour operators from other countries are plugging this hotel as a gay resort. I found the activities of some gay men around the Superfamily Pool a bit too unacceptable. When I mentioned this to the Thompson Rep I was told I was Homophobic and they were not responsible for what clientel the hotel chooses to let their rooms to!!! I am not Homophobic, I just don't want my 4 year old asking questions I would rather not answer just yet, and also being a Superfamily Hotel I just didn't expect this.
Each to their own, but I won't return.

| said: We travelled in June and came back July - just last week. We stayed in the Club Don Toni which I would recommend, rather than the hotel. All the facilities are within the club. I would just like to say a great big thank you to Chip (Fiesta Entertainer) and Carl (Thomson Entertainer). They both made our holiday a great one and it was nice to see the Fiesta and Thomson Staff working extremely well together.
The food in the restaurant was excellent. My husband is a fussy eater but he was delighted with the food choice on offer. The rooms were cleaned on a daily basis and linen and towels were also changed daily. We booked a late check out room and they even put fresh towels in for our last evening shower. Very impressed. Will definitely be going back again and hope that Chip and Carl are still there next time. Well done lads !!

Cannot fault this place at all, and will be looking forward to our 8th year next year.
Why chance going somewhere else when we all have so much fun at the Don Toni.

The entertainment was great they did a Lion King play which was fun for the kids.
The food is brilliant but if you’re a veggie there are only a couple of choices.
The staff are very very friendly but becareful because the maids are a bit sneaky, well we think it was them, 4 cigarettes went missing.
I will definitely go again.

| said: we stayed here in June 03, we had a great time, the food was good, did repeat its self in the 2nd week but good choice.
The entertainment was a joint team effort from thomsons and fiesta and they did put on some excellent evening shows - lots of musicals reinacted although miming very good costunmes and effects.
Lots of daytime entertainment if you want it -
The beach is a stroll past the pool - best of both worlds
both my kids aged 3 and 6 loved the kids club , and they also found the play area a fun place.
We have now stayed in the Club don ton on 2 occasions and will definately go back again

| said: My stay in the Don Toni was exellent, as a family we have stayed in every hotel on the Playa D'en Bossa strip and been satisfied every time. The food at the Don Toni is incredible, it is repeated but that is to aid the new arrivals.
The hotel location could not be better, 4 minutes from the airport, and 30ft from the beach.
The staff are incredibly friendly and put on great shows, my eldest was 13 when we went and there were no tennage activities, he asked one of the fiesta reps if he could do anything and they started a teenage program that week.
