Have just returned from a week all inclusive at this hotel. Firstly and most annoyingly, there is no kettle in the rooms, and there are no hot beverages available until the restaurant opens at 0800. Not great if your awake at 6ish .....usually.
The room was OK and clean but I did have a cockroach in the room one night.
The hotel is very tired. It has been recently decorated, but shows signs of age everywhere. Loads of cracked floor tiles around the place ,especially the pool. Render falling off the walls everywhere.
The pool itself was lovely.
The sun loungers were all very stained and dirty.
The food, in way of choice wasnt great, compared to previous experiences at other hotels. I'm not overly fussy, so always found something to eat. Breakfast and lunch were best.
The drinks. Only local spirits are available all inclusive. Any brand names are chargeable, which surprised me, again to previous hotels. Other guests complained vodka was watered down, the local whisky did its job every night👍
The staff were all great, but better if you make the effort to speak Spanish to them. Please and thank you are not difficult to learn.
The location was not nice. All abandoned buildings are covered in graffiti, even palm trees!! There are a couple of nice looking hotels along the beach, where you don't have to see these derelict buildings ,but in my opinion, there are nicer areas on the island.
The local beach was OK. There is a disguised water outlet under the sand there though. I don't know what water this was but it hadn't rained!!!!
We took a cab ride to Playa de Jardina for the day. The beach there was amazing and went on for miles. There are loads more shops ,restaurants and bars there also.
There is an amazing variety of guest nationality there. I made great friends with people from Gillingham, Norway, Holland and Poland. There is a high concentration of German guests on the entire island , I believe. Lots at the hotel. Some are polite and understand how to laugh, I heard anyway. Better places on the island other than Costa Calma.

Just back from a 1 week stay at this fine hotel. Rooms spotless and well looked after every day. Good variety of food and drink every day and plenty of it. Pleasant, friendly staff.
We would be quite happy to stay again here in the future.

Amazing entrance hall, very well decorated for Christmas. Lovely place with a stunning pool. A bit far from the beach and shuttle is not that frequent. Variety of food across the day. Good value for a 4 star. Really enjoyed my time there.

Spent a week at Drago Park, all inclusive.
Cannot fault it, everything was sound, room comfortable, a little aged but nothing wrong with it, cleaned daily.
Staff were all friendly and attentive when I asked ant questions.
Food was sound, I dont eat meat (I eat fish) I prefer a plant based diet and there was plenty of choice (if your a meat eater, then choice a plenty), the food was good.
The pool area is good too, plenty of sun loungers and pool side snacks and drinks, activities too daily.
A slight down is location, but I love walking so it wasn't a down side for me, the hotel is about a 15 minute walk to beach and Costa Calma.
The beach at Costa Calma is great too with plenty of resturants and bars, it's a quietish resort but I am happy with that.
I did some decent walking around the local trails and enjoyed it, if you get up the big hills close to the resort, the views are spectacular.
Overall I would revisit this hotel and recommend no worries.

Absolutely, without a doubt the worst food ever. Both me and my son heaved at the very thought of going to the restaurant/snack bar. We ended up eating out for half the trip, alternatively brought some bread and cheese from the local shop. Weird combinations of food, poor to no labeling (chef probably could not make up a name for some of the slop). Over boiled pasta with watery bolognese, and green watery something!?! Just to name a few examples. I spoke with a couple of other guests from UK and Sweden and they were also disgusted. My advice: do NOT stay at this hotel. If you decide to anyway; try getting reimbursed for eating out. Because you will! Also, NO fridge in the room. And this is the first place I have ever been to that does not have ketchup! Used tobasco to either give the food taste or to disguise the flavour. My son took some chicken drum sticks one day, tasted it, and then sat there wondering what he was eating (it looked like a drum stick anyway). Dont waste your money, you will be severly dissapointed. Wifi is a shambles also, you have to log in constantly.
