Gold by Marina

"We love this hotel completely. It’s our favourite in PDI. The staff are always lovely and it’s so calm normally. We have noticed some negative feedback recently which frankly is totally unwarranted. They do not in any way discriminate against swingers or any other group from personal experience and frankly some of the behaviours of guests on our recent trip wasn’t ok and so the hotel management have every right to clamp down on behaviour that ruins it for others. We have already booked our next trip for this time next year, we will try not to shed a tear for individuals choosing to stay elsewhere."

"We have just returned from our third trip staying at gold by marina ! The hotel has always been lovely with great staff and that’s why we have returned ! Guests have always been diverse with all types of communities being accepted ! However sadly the atmosphere created and entitlement of some of the swinging guests lacked any consideration for others staying at the hotel ! We don’t all want to see your bedroom antics being paraded on your balcony at any given time and if I wanted to hear animal noises I would go and visit the zoo ! Ladies I know it’s difficult for some of you, but have a little more class ! Then there is the hogging of sun beds, with minion husbands being sent down at the crack of dawn to claim their daily real estate (it’s very sad) there really is no need ! I could go on but enough said ! I would also like to state that’s it’s now become apparent that the negative reviews coming from swingers is due to them being told to rein it in and behave ! Just let everyone enjoy the hotel, we are all on holiday and there to enjoy ourselves ! The hotel has had to make a stand and is absolutely correct in doing so and the house rules of the hotel are not exactly difficult to abide by or accept !"

"He accused my wife and me of advertising Gold by Marina as a swingers hotel. The post he meant actually said the opposite, and we showed him. He then blamed us for 10 days of "issues," including other guests having sex on their balconies. We'd been there 5 days and knew nothing about it. He told us people like us weren't welcome. A notice had also gone under every door listing rules being broken. The only one that applied to us was using a speaker by the pool, which staff had already said was fine. Faced with the evidence, he didn't apologise. He left, then returned to claim we weren't guests at all because he couldn't find our booking. We'd checked out that morning. All of this happened loudly, in front of a full pool area. Several guests messaged us afterwards to ask if we were alright. Any reasonable manager would have spoken to us privately. Avoid."
